This Article is DOI (Digital Object Identifier) verified : https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.8288486

I have mentioned some of the real essentials and best Astrology books for beginners only but these astrology books will not only help you get started in Jyotish but also to understand the subject very well. 

Please go through it. I have added Amazon links for all the astrology books mentioned below to avoid any confusion. The list contains both Hindi and English as well.

  I have over 1200 Jyotish books in which some of them are manuscripts, some handwritten and I haven’t come across a book that hasn’t taught me anything as sometimes it’s not the time that you will get the essence of the book, As if you are mentally prepared the book will start revealing everything you need to know and beyond it and even a single sentence will start giving you cramps due to happiness and the same astrology book will seem ordinary for some other person.

It’s all about how we perceive anything in life or appreciate the beauty of the Jyotish books. 

Venus Rahu combo/ 2nd lord with Rahu/Rahu connection to 2nd house will make sure you see and value things beyond normal which very few people can see. The stronger the connection gets the more power you get to see the value in any person/object increases while Jupiter in 2nd or aspecting second house can hardly judge wrong or right, I have explained that earlier as well.

I hope you use this list of best astrology books for beginners and start your Jyotish Journey. Good luck.
