Āyurveda

Āyurveda is the traditional life science of the Indian subcontinent, concerned with body, rhythm, food and daily routine.

What the word means

Āyus, life, and veda, knowledge.

How it is calculated

Not calculated from a chart. Vedaz pairs chart patterns with gentle daily practices.

History

Its classical texts include the Caraka and Suśruta Saṃhitās.

Energy

Balancing and restorative.

Physical description

Practices of food, rest, movement, breath and season.

Interpretation

Works with three doṣas, vāta, pitta and kapha, as patterns of movement, heat and structure.

Vedaz's interpretation

Vedaz offers Āyurvedic and yoga āsana practices as invitations, not requirements, and never in place of care from a qualified professional.

This is a symbolic pattern, not a prediction. Nothing in a chart removes your agency. Vedaz content is reflective and is not medical, psychological, legal or financial advice.
