Jyotish is an ancient Indian system of astrology that interprets the positions and movements of celestial bodies to provide insights into human life and events. It is based on the belief that the positions of planets and stars at the time of a person's birth can influence their personality, behavior, and destiny. Practitioners of Jyotish, known as Jyotishis, create detailed charts called horoscopes to analyze these celestial influences. This system includes various elements such as the twelve zodiac signs, the nine planets, and the twelve houses, each representing different aspects of life.
