Jyothisham
Introduction
Jyothisham is an anga (part) of the Vedas, which dealt with the suitable time period to start treatment. Just as modern medicines have a certain time to consume (e.g. with food, before food, after food, number of times a day, number of days), Jyothisham or Astrology is a science of the effect of planetary movements on one’s physiology and emotions.
We use Jyotisham independently to guide clients and also for chosing Ragas for Raga Chikitsa.
We primarily use Rashi system- Rashi refers to the moon sign of the person based on their birth chart or horoscope. There is a certain planetary alignment at the time of one’s birth, and that has influence on what predilections that person may have in life.

“Inspired by Acharya Ratna Vidushi Dr. Rajam Shanker’s pioneering work The Healing Power of Indian Ragas, I feel privileged to learn under her guidance. Her teachings on the connection between ragas, chakras, and emotions deeply enrich my psychotherapy practice. Through the Guru–Shishya Parampara, each session at her Gurukulam is a sacred blend of reflection, learning, and healing. Heartiest congratulations, Mami, on your Doctorate — “Age is no bar; you are a star!””

“Eight years ago, my journey with music and healing began, and this year it came full circle when I joined Rajam Akka and Hamsini Ji’s music therapy course. These 15 sessions were transformative—each thoughtfully structured, combining theory, real-life case studies, and spiritual insights. I discovered the profound interplay of ragas, swaras, chakras, and the mind-body connection. Despite late-night classes after long workdays, I always emerged refreshed, inspired, and enriched. This program has given me practical tools for personal growth and professional application. Music therapy, when practiced with sincerity, truly heals. I am deeply grateful and highly recommend it.”
