This workshop is based on Edith’s upcoming new book due in 2011 – In Search of Destiny: Biography, History, and Culture Told through Vedic Astrology. Enhanced by rich details, and based on over 10 years of deep research, including from her 2002 Audio course, Edith brings together important principles and examples from the 12 Vedic Ascendant charts.
The way Vedic astrology organizes complex material will become clearer, including how the Ascendant is the primary expression of the Dharma, or life’s purpose, and therefore key to understanding the destiny of an individual or an entity. The placement of the 9 classical Vedic planets from each other and from the Ascendant is critical. Their placement from the Moon as Ascendant is next in importance, and thirdly from the Sun. The Vimshottari Dasa sequence of the planets is also a major key.
“The Time is contained in the ascendant. Based on Time, the natal ascendant … along with auspicious and inauspicious things should be understood….” (Hora Ratnam)

Edith Hathaway’s new book, In Search of Destiny: Biography, History, and Culture Told through Vedic Astrology, will be her second published book on astrology, the first since 1991. She has published numerous articles, some available at her website, since she began her astrological consulting practice in 1980. In 1988-89 she wrote her first book on Western tropical astrology, published in July 1991 by Llewellyn – Navigating by the Stars: Astrology and the Art of Decision-Making. It contains much material on Astrocartography, as well as material based on methods of Uranian astrology. American astrologer and Astrocartography maverick Jim Lewis called it “a Geminian feast for the mind.” In his review of the book, the distinguished British astrologer Charles Harvey called Edith Hathaway “a real working astrologer speaking in the light of her own work and observation. More please!”
In 2011, she finally fulfills Charles Harvey’s request. Edith now writes primarily on Vedic astrology, and began these studies in 1988, marking the start of her gradual transition into Vedic astrology from Western tropical astrology, which – in turn – was a study she began in 1976, a full Jupiter cycle earlier.
