hi steve i just found some info new to me which does bring together both systems using a tropical zodiac which he says sri yukteswar did use.it seems that the zodiac is not meant to represent the stars.
The western approach is obviously a Sun approached astrology. When it crosses the equater that is the first point of Aries despite what is literally light years away. Steve Hydonus
That is what i have stated before Mulaian; "....despite what (the stars) is literally light years away." same meaning as: "the zodiac is not meant to represent the stars." It is a Sun centered system. Regardless of where the stars are the Sun crosses the equator in the spring. This marks the first point of Aries in the Western approach.
It is nice to have you back here. Another new friend of mine is vedic astrologer. It is nice to learn from friends as i have mentioned. Jai Sri Yukteswar.
