The planets instigate the power of the divine intelligence or God. To understand the energies of the  planets is to understand the language of God and the very forces that influence us throughout life. </B></div> <bR> <div> <B> As the controllers of time, the planets are also the controllers of karma or destiny. They show the planetary energies we are influenced by and the level on which they are taking place. Everything that is born must eventually die we all know, but Jyotish helps us to understand the tiny area of time in between birth and death that is our life.</B></div> <bR> <div> <B>Jyotish can be used to examine all domains of life. From it we can learn about our Health, Wealth, Career, Relationships, our body and mind, our material, mental and spiritual manifestation. It shows the entire structure of energies through which we must act.</B></div> <bR> <bR> <bR> <div> <B>                                    </B></div> <DIV ALIGN="LEFT"></DIV> <div> <B>"Aum Namaha Shivaya"</B></div> <bR> <bR> <bR> </td> </tr></table></body>
