Meet the Cosmic Family: A Desi Astrological Portrait

 New Delhi (The Uttam Hindu): Astrology has always been a significant part of Indian culture intertwining the spiritual, emotional and physical realms of life. It’s not just a system of predicting the future but a deeply rooted belief in understanding one’s place in the vast cosmos. One way to think of this cosmic connection is through the lens of a "Cosmic Family"—a family made up of celestial entities each playing a vital role in shaping an individual's life journey.

In a Desi astrological context, the family consists of planets, stars and constellations that influence our actions, emotions and even fate. These celestial forces act like family members, each with their distinct characteristics and attributes guiding us through the different phases of life.
