The Zodiac is the 12 fold division of the sky. Each 30 degree division has its own influence and energy.
Many people contact me about my use of the Tropical Zodiac while still practicing Vedic Astrology.
Rather than to keep repeating myself through emails or during classes, I decided to create a short video blurb to describe how one can determine which one works better.
Once you learn the basics and have an open mind, you can decide for your self which zodiac works best with Vedic Techniques.
Also, feel free to review the following article.
Mystery of the Zodiac by Ernst Wilhelm
It describes the theory behind using the Tropical Zodiac. There is also an Mp3 in that link which is a 2 hour lecture going deeper into the understanding of this theory.

Out of curiosity and aside from the above mentioned, who were your Jyotish gurus?
David Frawley, lots of books, Richard Fish, more clients then I remember, and then Ernst. Although, I don’t consider Ernst one of my gurus. I consider him a friend who helps me tweak my understanding from time to time. But my most important teachers were all of the clients and students I’ve worked with over the years. There is no quicker way to figuring something out then putting your self in a position to have to do it well!
