In everyday life, many people embrace astrology for guidance and answers. It acts as a lens, helping them navigate uncertainties and find directions by interpreting the cosmic elements. Astrology provides a unique perspective on the connection between individuals and the universe, offering a framework for understanding and interpreting life events, finding solace in shared experiences, and fostering a sense of connection and understanding. On this note, &TV artists talk about embracing astrology and its impact on their beliefs and lives. These include Ashutosh Kulkarni (Krishan Bihari Vajpayee, Atal), Geetanjali Mishra (Rajesh, Happu Ki Ultan Paltan), and Rohitashv Gour (Manmohan Tiwari, Bhabiji Ghar Par Hain).
Ashutosh Kulkarni, essaying Krishan Bihari Vajpayee in &TV’s show Atal, says, “I trust astrology in making life decisions, finding comfort in lunar insights for favourable times. Though some may see it as simple, it brings clarity, guiding my decisions with purpose. I watch YouTube channels by astrologers like Ashish Mehta and Anshuman Astro daily. Checking my horoscope sets my day’s tone, providing insights for navigating challenges. My birth chart is like a personalised roadmap, offering insights into strengths and areas needing attention. Astrological principles help me choose auspicious timings, aligning my choices with cosmic energies at crucial moments.”
Geetanjali Mishra, essaying Rajesh in &TV’s show Happu Ki Ultan Paltan, says, “I turn to astrology for guidance in major decisions, considering planetary positions and lunar phases. Numerology is also integral, adding a unique aspect to my daily decisions. I believe in the influence of vibrations and energies associated with specific numbers on various life aspects. I calculate my numerology numbers each morning, reflecting on their meanings and how they might shape my day. These insights prove valuable in crucial decisions, aligning my choices with the energies of specific numbers. Recently, during a significant career decision, the date matched my life path number in numerology, boosting my confidence and guiding me positively. It’s intriguing how even small things like numbers can influence our choices.”
Rohitashv Gour, essaying Manmohan Tiwari in &TV’s Bhabiji Ghar Par Hai, says, “I approach astrology with a balanced perspective, not blindly following, but seeking guidance for specific aspects of my life and family’s well-being. During a slower period, an astrologer suggested wearing a Manik (Ruby) stone and offering ‘Jal’ to ‘Suryadev’ daily. Following these recommendations, I noticed positive changes and an upturn in my life. Donning the ruby and honouring the Sun deity seemed connected to a positive shift. I also consult astrological ‘Mahurat’ timings for new projects, finding alignment with successful outcomes. While not solely relying on astrology, these experiences have instilled a belief in celestial influences on certain life aspects.”
