(or is it Robert Svoboda? sorry)<BR/><BR/>If you are in Nepal there are several qualified Jyotishis who can do your kundli, though sadly, the grandaddy of them all, Mangal Raj Joshi (royal joshi for decades) passed away 2 years ago in his 80s. I don't believe his sons are pursuing Jyotish but i will let you know when I find one. I heard of a good one named Rajendra Shreshta but this is a common name here! <BR/><BR/>Are you in Nepal now?

Shani in the 4th house, as you know, is not great except for tula, makar and kumbha lagnas, if I recall correctly.<BR/><BR/>Conjunct with moon, it makes a very powerful combination in your case...the next 17 years are going to be better that the last 16!

In Nepal you will find plenty of good astrologers who will tell you things in detail. <BR/><BR/>In English, you will find books of BV Raman very useful and easy to follow.Vinod_Sharmahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14654167848186778789noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6232195.post-69375298924945089702008-12-18T04:00:00.000-06:002008-12-18T04:00:00.000-06:00Thanks Vinod: I would love to learn more about Ved...Thanks Vinod: I would love to learn more about Vedic Jyotish, but you have to start somewhere. I understand I have just recently moved into Saturn Dasha (Shani)!
