Astrology Credentials
Dr. Andrew Dutta’s mother, late Mrs. Ujjwala Dutta (Srimati Deblina) was his first Guru, who initiated him into this vast ocean of astrology (Jyotisha) at quite an early age. Andrew’s mother taught him extensively the esoteric principles of remedial measures in astrology apart from infusing the basic foundation of Hindu Vedic astrology. She held his hands carefully and brought him to the shores of the ocean of astrology. Dr. Andrew Dutta picked up his initial lessons of predictive astrology from his mother and observed and learnt from his mother’s illustrious astrological practice in Kolkata with innumerable clients.
However, he was extensively groomed and trained in astrology by two great Gurus. His second Guru is ‘Jyotiryogi’ ji (Sri Pramod Ranjan Mohanto) who trained him in Vedic or Hindu astrology. He was very fortunate to be the only disciple of ‘Jyotiryogi’ ji who not only groomed and trained him in the field of astrology but also taught him and shared with him all the experiential knowledge that he gained in four and a half decade as a leading professional astrologer of Kolkata, India. He taught Andrew remedial measures in astrology through gemstones that can have miraculous effect on individuals, following the methods advocated by the famous late Sadhan Bhai of Kolkata. His magnanimity towards him is bigger than the seven seas.
His third Guru was one of the famous legends in Krishnamurti Paddhati (KP) astrology in the world—late Sri P.V.K. Punneswara Rao ji, of Hyderabad who practiced astrology for more than six decades. Andrew had a personal, one-to-one learning under him. His Guruji Sri Rao ji has selflessly shared his knowledge of KP system and imbibed spirituality and positive virtues in Dr. Andrew during his training in KP system under him at Rao ji’s own residence in Hyderabad. Rao ji was the direct student of late Sri V.B.N. Sarma ji of Warrangal, who himself resided in the house of late K.S. Krishnamurti (the inventor of KP system) and learnt the technique from the great Guru himself. Sri Rao ji’s presence in his life is like a Divine blessing and he has brought Dr. Andrew very close to the Supreme Soul. He has given Dr. Andrew a spiritual birth. Without his hand holding, Dr. Andrew would not have been so close to God as he is today.
Therefore, Dr. Andrew Dutta practices the most authentic KP astrology because he is privy to the real and original principles of KP astrology directly through the K.S. Krishnamurti lineage of “Gharana”.
Both his Gurujis have loved him like their own son and have built a strong character in him to become an honest astrologer for the benefit of the society. Apart from training him in astrology, they have shown him the path of Dharma that each and every astrologer should follow. Andrew’s mother brought him to the shores of the ocean of astrology and his two Gurujis have taught him how to swim effortlessly in that vast and deep ocean.
At the special invitation of the Malaysian Astrological Society, Kuala Lumpur, Dr. Andrew Dutta was invited in the month of May 2015 to conduct a 3 Day KP Astrology Workshop in Malaysia.

About Financial Astrology
Astrology can be applied to a multitude of fields, other than forecasts for individual persons. One such field is financial astrology, also called astro-economics – the astrological method to analyze and predict matters of business and finance.
The connection between astrology and the markets is not a new one. In the early 1900s, successful traders like W.D. Gann, J.P. Morgan, and the mysterious Louise McWhirter recognized this connection. They used their knowledge of astrology to profit from the markets at key astrological occurrences. Knowledge of the connection between astrology and the markets was swept aside starting in the 1940s. Academic thinkers introduced concepts like the Efficient Market Hypothesis. Before long, people were told that investing was passive and for the long term.
Financial Astrology, which is also known as Stock Market Astrology, is the study of how the Sun, Moon, and planets affect human emotion, which is reflected in t.he world financial markets. Financial astrology is a branch of astrology that is used to anticipate time cycles in stocks, commodities, and the economy, both short and long term. Stock market astrology and commodity market astrology are used to predict when major trend changes in stocks or commodities, as well as the accompanying price levels, are likely to occur. This is the most effective high-probability trading approach available.
Many people know about Nancy Reagan consulting an astrologer before allowing her husband (Ronald Reagan) to schedule important presidential meetings, but there are other prominent individuals who have come out in support of astrology and financial astrology. For example, in the forward to Kathleen Johnson’s latest book, former U.S. Treasury Secretary William Simon wrote, “The use of astrology as an investment aid might seem to the cynical contemporary Westerner a mild form of lunacy and I must admit that this was my reaction…but, as I have come to know Kathleen Johnson better and to understand a bit more about the broader applications of astrological influences, I have come to view this as a fascinating perspective from which to survey one’s personal strengths and weaknesses in the area of finance and to anticipate trends in the world marketplace.” J.P. Morgan himself is widely quoted as having said “Millionaires don’t use Astrology, billionaires do.”
The issue with “fundamental analysis” is it does not work in timing the market. If you are a long term investor, and are fortunate to live long enough, then this approach can eventually pay off for you! However, in today’s markets and algorithms, fundamentals don’t mean a thing when the big money and interests want the markets go up or down. Markets move up or down, short term and longer term, based on time cycles. These cycles can be worked out in the daily, weekly, or monthly time frames, or for day trading, as fast as the 4-5 minute time frame.
The problem with using traditional “technical analysis” is the indicators “lag” the markets. By the time you get a buy or sell signal it is often too late and the market can turn on you. Buying or selling off of technical support or resistance levels, moving averages, etc. that every other trader in the world uses, can be hit and miss as well. While the best use of technicals and divergences can give you more of a trading and timing edge, there is much better way to more accurately and consistently time the market. This is why the use of “planetary support and resistance” levels in financial astrology based on the actual positions and harmonics of the planets is of much more value than using traditional support and resistance calculations, trend lines, or moving averages.
In the introduction to his book “Astrological Warnings & the Stock Market,” Thomas Reider made an analogy to a 14th century fisherman. This fisherman could only navigate a narrow in the open water at high tide, which occurs when the moon is at its highest elevation in the sky. The sailor’s lack of knowledge that high tide took place because of gravitational attraction did not prevent him from taking advantage of this knowledge of planetary interaction as he navigated the waters.
In his book “Solar and Lunar Returns,” Donald Bradley wrote, “We have to admit…that astrology…is still in its infancy…We do know that planetary influences are a reality. The exact how and wherefore does not greatly bother us at the moment, and rightly so. This old world of ours would have been rather dark for countless eons if the gods had awaited man’s discovery of photons before allowing us sunshine and starlight or even flint…some day we will find out just how planetary…influences are possible, but these are riddles the solutions to which we bequest to future generations of inquirers.”
