“I began by predicting small things for my friends and family—like who’d win the IPL match. Once, something funny happened—a friend planned to propose to a girl and I suggested he not go ahead as things wouldn’t work out for them. And it actually turned out to be true! Since then, my friends began trusting my predictions. Slowly, I ended up taking up this profession very seriously.”

As a 17-year-old, Pandit Jagannath Guruji discovered his gift for predictions and astrology rather unexpectedly. His astrologer father’s client came in one day when he wasn’t available. And then she turned to 17-year-old Pandit Jagannath Guruji for help. Until then, he’d never thought about venturing in this direction, even though he comes from a lineage of renowned foretellers.

But that one encounter changed things for him; and soon he, a millennial, found himself pursuing Astrology at Bhartiya Vidya Bhavan. Delving into the intricacies of astrology, face reading, and body language, he equipped himself with as much knowledge as he could absorb.

Today, his expertise has astounded people from all walks of life—from making accurate political predictions to deciphering the secrets of stars and planets and altering decisions for oneself, he’s been a guiding light for thousands of people from across the country.

Join us as he takes us through an interesting journey—from how he learnt astrology, to dealing with skepticism, and from developing a rapport with his clients to busting myths about astrology. He also makes some political predictions, and who the next superstar will be, after SRK… This one’s an interesting watch!

We spoke about:
. His journey as an Astrologer
. Dealing with skepticism about Astrology
. Astrology & Science
. Free Will vs. Destiny
. A day in the life of an Astrologer
. Comparing notes among astrologers in the family
