What does Shyam need to know from
me before our session? |
|
Basically, all Shyam needs is your
birth information (date, time and
place of birth). |
|
|
|
2. |
How important is having my exact
birth time for the reading? |
|
An accurate birth time is
important in order that you may
have a correct interpretation of
your horoscope. If you are uneasy
regarding the accuracy of your
birth time, but you are fairly
certain that it is within four to
six hours of the correct time,
then Shyam can perform what is
known as a birth rectification
procedure for determining the
exact time of birth. The birth
rectification is a separate
procedure from the reading itself
and requires an additional fee.
If you do not know your birth time
within six hours or so, then you
will require a more lengthy
procedure called birth
determination to assign a birth
time.

rectification and birth

Which reading should I do first? |
|
Shyam recommends that you have a
Natal Reading done first, even if
you have had one or several Natal
Readings done in the past with
other astrologers. A Natal Reading
provides you with a foundation to
better understand other kinds of
readings or Progressions you may
want to consider later. If you
have a particular area of
interest, or compelling question
which you would like him to
entertain at the time of your
initial Natal Reading, you may
want to make that known in
advance. In that case Shyam can
structure your session to make
time to address your specific
request, giving relatively less
time to the Natal Reading.
To ensure that Shyam reviews your
questions before your session, you
must send them at least 24 hours
prior to your appointment time.

Is there a difference between a
phone reading and a reading in
person? |
|
The difference is what one
experiences in another person's
presence verses talking with them
over the telephone. The fact is
that Shyam is consulted by people
from all over the world and has
not personally met the majority of
his clients. Nonetheless, if
seeing Shyam in person is an
option, most people find meeting
with him to be an enjoyable and
uplifting experience.
Shyam's readings are based on the
horoscope. Over the years, he has
developed what many would call a
remarkable attunement to the
subtleties of the planetary
energies which allows him to give
sensitive and insightful readings.
Regardless of whether the person
is in front of him or on the
telephone, he does not perceive
them in the conventional sense,
neither through their voice nor in
observing their presence. Rather,
he has said that in studying the
chart, an image of a person comes
to him, and that image forms the
basis of his reading. |

May I have reading made on tape
and sent to me without my being
present or without being on the
telephone with Shyam? |
|
Shyam will record a session for
you without your participation,
and there are clients who request
their sessions be done in this
manner for one reason or another.
However, Shyam prefers to be able
to interact with the person for
whom he is conducting the reading
whenever possible. |
|
|
|
6. |
How long after the Natal Reading
is it appropriate to have the
Progression Reading? What is the
earliest? |
|
It depends on the needs of the
person, but it is good to have
some time to digest the material
presented in the Natal Reading
before having a Progression unless
there is some pressing need. |
|
|
|
7. |
How accurate is Shyam? |
|
Shyam´s repeat clientele reflects
well on his accuracy, but he is
not infallible. One should never
abandon their own common sense in
evaluating the validity of what
someone else has to say, even if
they are an expert in their
subject.
Conversely, there have been times
that Shyam has said things to
clients that they later tell him
they could not accept at the time,
but came to agree, or later
recognized his point differently
than how they understood him
initially. The process of
digesting a reading can take some
time; sometimes that period of
time is years!
Shyam often approaches a subject
from a different angle than how
you typically think about it,
which may require that you
re-orient your logic to another
perspective in order to appreciate
what he has to say. Also,
sometimes one needs time to
reflect and consider any new
information that goes to the core
of long held attitudes and
beliefs.
Shyam feels that we all have the
right, and ultimately, the
obligation to our own point of
view, and he is not seeking to
replace your own inner knowing
with his. Rather, as an expert in
his field, which is reading
horoscopes, clients engage him to
obtain his interpretation of their
chart. His professional opinion
has been honed by over 20 year's
experience, and over the years he
has earned a reputation of being a
dedicated astrologer with a desire
to be of service to others.
However, despite his
qualifications and good
intentions, it is up to each
individual to utilize the
information that they receive from
Shyam in a manner that renders it
a useful tool for their own
greater growth and understanding
of self.
This is perhaps another way of
saying that the client is not just
a passive participant in this
exchange, but rather, for maximum
benefit they must exercise some
judgment and discrimination in the
process of assimilating the
information from their reading. |

When can I expect to receive the
tape recording of my reading? |
|
Usually you will receive the tape
within 10 days. |
|
|
|
9. |
May I have a session with Shyam to
read someone else's chart? |
|
In order to do a reading for
someone other than yourself, Shyam
requires that you secure the
permission of the person for whom
you will be having the reading.
However, you can have Shyam look
at anyone's chart as it relates to
your chart. Also, as a parent, you
have the option of getting a
reading for your children. |
|
|
|
10. |
When might I need an auspicious
date? |
|
Selecting an auspicious date
relates to the best time to begin
new projects, investment ventures,
marriage, celebrations, new
business, undertaking
construction, surgery, health
treatments, and so on. Shyam needs
only to know what the occasion is
and he will then select a date or
dates for a new undertaking or
important event. It can make a
tremendous difference on the
outcome of that venture. (Shyam
references the individual´s chart
in selecting auspicious dates.) |
|
|
|
11. |
Does Shyam conduct readings for
individuals in other countries? |
|
Absolutely. If you are outside the
India, it is just as easy to
schedule an appointment as it is
for local clients. Our office will
direct you as to how to adjust for
the difference in time zones,
because your appointment will be
in Indian Standard Time.(I.S.T)
You need only to fill out the
Natal Request Form. |
|
|
|
12. |
May I bring someone into the
reading? Or may I have someone be
on the phone with me during the
reading? |
|
You are welcome to bring whomever
you wish, or to have anyone on the
phone with you that you choose.
But please bear in mind that your
consultation with Shyam is
intended to be a safe space in
which to consider serious issues
in your life. If there is someone
with whom you would like to share
a session of this nature, then, of
course, they are welcome. Ideally,
you would not bring someone that
would inhibit you or Shyam from
speaking freely.
There are, however, a myriad of
circumstances that bring people
together in a reading. Shyam
addresses the issues of the
individual or individuals
according to what appears
appropriate given the context of
the meeting, and he is quite
skilled in the diplomacy of
relationships.
As a reminder, he does not look at
the issues in relationships like a
therapist who responds to the
person or persons in the session
with him. Rather, Shyam forms an
impression of the individuals and
how they may interact with one
another from the energies
indicated in the horoscopes. He
will relate to the questions or
issues accordingly.
Often clients bring their spouses,
and just as often they prefer to
come alone. Even if you are alone,
there may be times when Shyam says
something that he does not include
on your tape, for example, because
he is concerned about privacy
issues which could arise around
sensitive issues. |

13. |
What steps does Shyam recommend if
one is interested in furthering
their education in Vedic
Astrology? |
|
Shyam has suggested the book,
"Astrology of the Seers" by David
Frawley, as one good way to begin
your studies. |

|

to visit your area. |
