DEALING WITH OBSTACLES
Jyotish can often diagnose good and bad times one will meet in life, and
it is part of an effective astrologers' skills to be able to "prescribe"
a remedy to help augment the good and mitigate the bad. For a remedy to
work, there must be inter alia implicit trust in the device used by the
user.
Remedies available include: mantras (sacred hymns, syllables, or prayers);
gemstones or crystals; consumption of particular foods or herbs; observing
fasts and other vows; worship of the fire, the planets, and certain other
deities; yantras being the visible form, the energy body, of the mantra,
and of the planet to which it corresponds. With proper guidance, mantras
can be very powerful, but safe, whereas gemstones can be dangerous if
incorrectly prescribed.
