Fascinating Venus | English | ICAS | Pt. Satish Sharma |

About the Book: The author has described Fascinating Venus not only from an astronomical point of view but also from Jyotisha point of view. Though a large part of this compact book of 29 chapters is filled with Venus as related to astrology he has touched upon every aspect of Venus, from Vāstu, Palmistry, Ayurveda, Mundane, to remedial measures and Shukra-Stuti. For a diligent student of astrology, there is enough in the book to master the role of Venus in the chart for marriage and matching. He has covered not only the Navamsha but also Trimshamsha which is supposed to have special relevance for female nativities. It is not difficult to find the characteristics of different nakshatras in general in the classics but the description of ‘Venus in different Nakshatras’ is a very illuminating addition.
