Bill Sinclair: When the Planets Speak, Mythic Stories That Reveal the Grahas

The Vedic Narratives contain some of the most revealing and sophisticated teachings about the Nine Planets, offering a mythic window into their core personalities, motivations, and relationships. In this session, we will explore how these ancient stories illuminate the deeper nature of each graha and show us how the planets interact, collaborate, and challenge one another within the cosmic order.

Many of these narratives are woven directly into the nakshatras, allowing astrologers to understand not only the planetary archetypes but also the specific degrees of the zodiac that activate particular behaviours, impulses, and karmic patterns. By studying these mythic threads, students gain a richer, more nuanced understanding of planetary expression, one that goes far beyond keywords and into the living psychology of the chart.

We will bring these insights to life by examining the charts of well-known public figures, showing how the mythic qualities of the planets manifest vividly in real lives and real stories. This session is ideal for anyone who wants to deepen their interpretive skill, expand their symbolic vocabulary, and reconnect with the narrative heart of Jyotish.

I look forward to sharing this exploration with you.
