Mundane Astrology or Medhini Jyotish (सांसारिक ज्योतिष): The word ‘Mundane’ refers to earth. Hence, Mundane Astrology focuses mainly on the future of the different countries existing on the earth. Mundane Astrology is a branch of Astrology that examines the charts of countries and their rulers in predicting the future of the country. Mundane Astrology is also called ‘Medhini Jyotish’ or ‘Dasa Gochara’ in Vedic culture. It is also referred to as ‘Political Astrology’ by modern Astrologers.
Unlike Natal Astrology which focuses on the individual horoscope of a person, Mundane Astrology mainly focuses on the future of a country. It is possible to forecast the time when the ruling party of a country changes, when the country will have conflict with her neighbors, when epidemic diseases spread, when natural calamities like floods and famine are possible and when the people revolt against the Government etc. events in advance. When such things are known in advance, required contingency plans can be adopted to alleviate the problem.
Mundane Astrology (सांसारिक ज्योतिष) uses a chart, but instead of the chart being for an individual, it is drawn up for a nation or country. Like a personal horoscope, a chart can be drawn up for a nation or country by using a particularly important date such as an official inauguration or a leader’s birth.
