Aswin Subramanyan

Aswin Subramanyan traces his astrological roots through his maternal lineage, which spans over 350 years. He began reading charts under the close guidance of his granduncle, who would allow him to lead client readings while stepping in gently when needed. This hands-on learning, within the framework of an oral tradition, shaped Aswin’s early understanding of astrology, not just as a technical skill, but as a way of engaging with life and people.

While his foundation is firmly rooted in the classical tradition of Jyotiṣa, Aswin has gone on to explore Hellenistic and Medieval Persian astrology, appreciating the depth and nuance they bring. Rather than treating these systems as separate, he integrates their wisdom into his work in a way that remains respectful to their origins and coherent in practice.

This course is his way of extending a tradition that has remained within his family for generations. With sincerity and care, Aswin invites students into a learning environment that values both heritage and thoughtful exploration, where techniques are taught, but context, meaning, and integrity are never forgotten.
