Vedic or Western?

Understanding Vedic and Western Astrology Differences

Vedic astrology is based on the sidereal zodiac and emphasizes planetary periods, while Western astrology uses the tropical zodiac and focuses on personality traits and psychological patterns. Your chart may align more with one system depending on your cultural background and how you interpret planetary influences.

Pisces Venus
Gemini Mars
Aries ascendant

Almost my ex's western chart. This chart looks more appealing to me, but dont these signs have different traits in western vs vedic? so my Vedic chart is probably just as lame as my western chart. Haha

in vedic i'm a cap with lots of aries and fire dominant. in western i'm a packed 1st house, earth dominant. I thought. hmm it makes alot of sense really.

it just seems to go with houses in my case with western, i married 2 water suns, fire moons, water venus (first one was an aries venus but his mars was water) this one switched venus/mars elements. that's in a nutshell.

i wonder if you look deeply into your western and see where the HOUSES are.

my husband's vedic, he's same sun, but his venus is either in Sagittarius or libra venus (there's a night and day vedic chart!) I got even more confused.

then i went to check out the Jupiter is your wife. Venus is your man/husband videos that are vedic related. I dont think that vedic should count unless you're really living in the other side of the world like India/ Asia, Middle east, because of geography-locatiion.
