Unlock the ancient science of Jyotish — Vedic Astrology, which will help you to understand your life’s cosmic blueprint.
Learn how planetary movements and positions at the time of your birth shape your personality, affect what’s in store for you, and determine when certain life events will take place. This is a 7-day introduction to the basics of Jyotish, which will give students an excellent base from which to pursue further Jyotish studies or apply what they have learnt into their everyday lives.
Welcome to this sacred journey of self-discovery, cosmic wisdom, and mastering the yogic practices at the prestigious World Peace Yoga School – a world-renowned yoga school in Rishikesh – the world capital of yoga & spiritual master India. This Basic Astrology (Jyotish) Course is intended for yoga & spiritual enthusiasts, wellness consultants, and anyone who wants to understand the ancient Vedic science which relates to human life on its highest level in relation to the stars’ motion.
Vedic Astrology (Jyotish) is part of the six branches of Vedic knowledge and is called “The Eye of Veda”. It sheds light on karmic patterns, life purpose, talents, and challenges, as well as possible windows of opportunity for significant events. It’s less of a prediction and more of an enlightenment, healing, and living tool.
After completing the course, you’ll also receive an official Certificate of Completion from World Peace Yoga School, Rishikesh (India), confirming your Basic Knowledge in Vedic Astrology (Jyotish Shastra). This certification will boost your personal belief and can take you to heights in a professional capacity as an instructor, professor, or guide.
Rishikesh is one of the most holy cities in India, and each morning at dawn, it seems every yoga teacher (and student) would join along the edge of the Ganges River to repeat songs asking for peace. This is the sort of place that nurtures deep learning, self-reflection, and inner clarity — a perfect context in which to explore Jyotish.
We incorporate astrology into the daily meditation, yoga, and lifestyle at World Peace Yoga School so that your experience is fulfilling on a spiritual level and down-to-earth.
Our teaching combines interactive classroom sessions, live chart demonstrations, practical exercises and guided interpretation, group discussions and reflection — all in a supportive learning environment.
We encourage questions, exploration, and mindful practice so that concepts become lived experience — not just intellectual knowledge.
We provide course materials, charts, reference texts, and guidance — all designed to support your learning and growth.
The 7-day basic astrology course at World Peace Yoga School is much more than a lesson – it ushers students on an inner journey of self-realization and connects them with the cosmic rhythm which influences aspects in life. Whether you’re interested in self-development, spiritual advancement, or simply a tool to share with others, this course is a good source of the real deal – astrology.
