“A child is born on that day and at that hour when the celestial rays are in mathematical harmony with his individual karma. His horoscope is a challenging portrait, revealing his unalterable past and its probable future result.” — Jeff Green, Pluto — The Evolutionary Journey of the Soul

I found it better & easier to start this particular blog with a quote. This can help me provide a better understanding of the system of “Evolutionary Astrology” which, in my opinion, is a very interesting concept.

Evolutionary Astrology differs from the traditional vedic astrology in its focus and in its core concept. I assume my readers would be aware of the conceptual framework of the traditional astrology that is related to planets, kundali, ascendants and the moon sign. Evolutionary Astrology does not disregard all these things, but rather consider them significant in correlation to the big picture.

The Evolutionary Astrology relies more on the karmic connection and the influence of the past lives on the current lives.

As the name suggests, “Evolutionary Astrology” focuses on the evolution of the soul.

It strives to understand the deepest inclinations and desires of the soul through the karmas of the past lives. It strives to understand from where the soul is coming and where it will go.

It strives to understand:

Where the soul has been in the previous births The present life Where the soul is going

The evolutionary astrologer strives to gather the information related to the above points and make further analysis to reach the crux of karmic influence on an individual.

And such an evolution can lead to changes in the future path of the soul. An Evolutionary Astrologer will never try to give out remedies but rather the points to the direction where he thinks issue/issues exist.

The important aspects that Evolutionary Astrology takes into consideration to understand the karmic tendencies are:

1. The south node provides information about the challenges and gifts that are carried forward from the past life and where you feel the most secure. However, individuals are not conscious of these things and these influence the individuals more.

2. The north node focuses on the fulfillment and what the individual consciously strives for, often ineffectively, because they lack the prerequisite information of the desires of the soul.

3. Both north and south node, together provide answers about the past life and tendencies, the purpose of the soul and the direction your life should be taking.

Even though, the vedic astrology also refers to the past lives in some sense but does not take such a forthright approach towards understanding it and its influence on the human life.

Karma can have a deep influence the life choices of the individual.

It is interesting to understand how the karmic lives can influence the current life, and the so oft repetitive patterns that one witness in life. Evolutionary Astrology strives to understand the causes of these patterns and the lesson that needs to be learned.

What does Evolutionary Astrology strives to achieve:

• uncover the past life and understand what is preventing the individual to get growth and joy

• Helps in understanding certain tendencies and attractions

• Helps in the realization of innate gifts and talents.
