Which Astrology System Is More Accurate

The accuracy of Vedic astrology versus Western astrology depends on personal belief and specific circumstances. Vedic astrology is rooted in Indian tradition and uses sidereal zodiac calculations, while Western astrology relies on tropical zodiac and psychological insights. Both systems offer valuable insights, but accuracy varies by individual and context.

Thanks yall. I only asked cus it seem I relate more to vedic even can relate more to being a virgo rising as oppose to libra rising and especially taurus sun. I was hoping everybody say vedic because I wanna be a taurus so bad.

I'm thinking maybe we grow into our vedic chart in later life and kickstart our life off with western. I like to think we even grow and develop into vedic astrology physicality. I done outgrow gemini I know. But I don't know if I'm making any sense, or maybe I am I dunno😀🤷‍♂️

In the here and now, Western. In 70 years Vedic (you'll be in the astral plane, out of the body). Why? Because Vedic is looking more at the soul and less at the body. Vedic has more depth biased towards God. Western is biased towards the immediate here and now.

It is interesting how Vedic astrologers and Western approach marriage readings. The Vedic astrologer looks at the chart as a big picture - the soul in motion throughout many births - collecting karma from place to place (Jupiter & Saturn - long term). The Western astrologer looks at the chart like it is everything - just the right now with no past lives (mars and venus, the pleasure of the now). This is probably why marriages based on the here and now/pleasure principal usually fail. While Vedic guided marriages are more likely to succeed.

Most people can only comprehend a '2x4 across the head' so for them Western astrology is better. The other stuff is invisible.
