Plain language. Primary sources. Held lightly.
We cite the Sanskrit canon (Brihat Parashara Hora Shastra, Phaladeepika, Saravali) and Hellenistic primaries (Valens, Rhetorius, Dorotheus) when we summarise Vedic and Western astrology. We do not paraphrase summary blogs of summary blogs. Where a tradition disagrees with itself, we say so.
