hi steve you ask about the vedic method i use i assume you mean ashtak varga.although i have been studying vedic for 20 years i have had little pravtise due to my isolation and hostility from western astrologers compounded by the fact i have studied western and changed to vedic.i have learnt to tread carefully.i have been on the internet for just 4 months and am finding opportunities to do charts but sometimes irs hard to get feedback as the commercial method seems to encourage dependency and wishing to be told how to live the life.also an element of testing of worth which is a huge turn off for me.my approach is that two heads are better than one and working together to find insight on lifes problems and issues is more fruitful and of course you can learn more.empowerment is my goal with astrology so for me a dialogue of equals works better.especially as you dont get feedback from body language and feeling( which boosts intuition)as you would face to face.consequently my progress is slowed but i persevere.
   back to the enquiry i need a lot more practise with ashtak varga to fully learn its intricacies but already its a great help.basically the transitting planet is analised to determine its positive or negative interaction with all your natal planets(by simple aspect)so if jupiter transiting say the 2nd house natally is in good relation to say 6 or 7 other natal planets it would give good results and produce wealth increased knowledge and a blessed family life according to vedic rules if it was in bad relation to 6 or 7 planets in the same position it could indicate squandering of wealth input of dubious religious knowledge overindulgence in eatingrich foods etc etc.this is just one example but i hope you get the idea of how this system can work.with favourable aspects to say 4 planets the results would be mixed as quite often is the case.
