In 2019, K.N. Rao, one of the greatest Vedic astrologers of India said, “if you don’t modernize Jyotish it has no utility in the 21st century”. Integrating Ayurveda, Yoga, storytelling, psychology, and science this book does just that by offering a contemporary context to the ancient principles of Jyotish.
Intersecting the divine planetary cycles of the Vimshottari Dasha with Hindu mythology, modern stories like Harry Potter and Lord of the Rings, and Joseph Campbell’s Hero’s Journey, this book gives you an opportunity to find your own answers and pathways to optimize your future.

Free Will & Destiny
“Human consciousness is focused on having, achieving, becoming, and our divine consciousness seeks a higher cosmic purpose through the acceptance of destiny. The ego’s projection of selfhood, driven by self-will and self-determination, seeks to control our destiny—but so does our karma. The Vedic horoscope reveals the sacred space of our deep unconscious, not to enslave us to predictions, but to help us concede the ego and gain free will”.

Renu Namjoshi in Before Your Future has given us a timeless gift. She has created a profound, accessible guide to the fundamental and ageless principles of Vedic Astrology and integrated them with archetypal stories, cutting edge neuroscience, and a practical approach to health and wellness. It is truly a masterpiece! Renu has been a trusted guide, mentor, and teacher for me for over a decade. Her gentle, wise counsel as I maneuvered through my Sade Sati truly saved my life. That she now has distilled her comprehensive knowledge and practical wisdom into an accessible and even entertaining book has only deepened my appreciation for her insights and compassionate counsel. I have no doubt it will touch, educate and guide both individuals and professional astrologers for decades to come as we begin to awaken collectively to our true place in the universe as an integrated, enlightened humanity.

Although I cannot, as a physicist, accept the premise that planetary positions are causally connected to human affairs, this is a great book for skeptics who want to explore an alternate epistemology of psychology and consciousness. Renu Namjoshi is one of the wisest people I know, and her interpretation rescues an ancient system of meaning-making from obscurantism, fatalism and the exploitative egotism of modern-day self-styled gurus. Her metaphoric interpretation presents, instead, a dynamic map of human consciousness. Renu’s primary motivation is to help us make sense of who we are, to face our deepest fears and entrenched flaws, so that we may be braver, kinder, better human beings. Written in a style at once serious and sparkling, illuminated with multiple references from neuroscience to Joseph Campbell to Harry Potter, this is an eminently well written guidebook to the adventure of our lives.

I have practiced integrative medicine for the last 25 years and am always looking for new and meaningful ways to understand the human condition for myself and others. In Before Your Future Renu creatively presents the complex topic of Vedic astrology in a way that is insightful, interesting, and immediately relevant. Renu’s storytelling style brings personality and life to all of the aspects of a Vedic chart. The book is a great read and also a useful reference. Before Your Future has provided me with a much better understanding of my intrinsic nature and tendencies and affirms and validates how my life has played out. The book is engaging and fun whether you are looking for better personal awareness or an introduction to becoming an astrologer. Renu’s integrative methodology has been transformative for me.
