Michael Reed, Vedic Astrologer
Hello! I’m Michael Reed, Vedic Astrologer and Founder of MichaelReedAstrology.com.
The focus of my work is in assisting my clients in discovering and living in harmony with their true potential, thereby aligning their own soul’s rhythm in harmony with the Pulse of the Universe. To do so, I utilise the ancient art and science of Vedic Astrology, also known as Jyotish. As a Counseling Astrologer with over twenty-five years of experience in the astrological field, I have shared my gift with thousands of clients worldwide.
Among many of the distinguishing factors of my astrological work is the employment and deep interaction with the Nakshatras of Vedic Astrology as well as the Varga Deities.
In terms of the calculations I utilise, I prefer to work with the tropical zodiac using sidereal nakshatras and a special ayanamsa using the Galactic Centre as a reference point. Both the sidereal zodiac and tropical zodiac have the capacity to produce exceptionally accurate information and predictions. Neither is intrinsically right or wrong in my opinion. Ultimately, what sets a strong foundation for an accurate prediction is an astrologer’s faith in his techniques and the client’s faith in the astrologer. However, with the techniques that I use I have found the tropical zodiac with sidereal nakshatras to give more precision. The scientific foundation for using these calculations is further substantiated by information which appears in two Ancient Classic texts, the first is Surya Siddhanta which is the ancient astronomical text which is fundamental to Vedic Astrology and the other is Srimad Bhagavatam, one of the eighteen great puranas of Vedic Literature. But, my own scientific conclusion for using these techniques has come after testing both systems over hundreds of charts. As I pride myself on delivering the greatest accuracy that I can to my clients, I prefer to use this system.
