Hindu Predictive Astrology by B.V. Raman is a comprehensive and systematic guide to the principles and practice of Vedic astrology. First published in 1938 and now in its twentieth edition, the book has been widely regarded as a classic reference for both beginners and advanced students of astrology. It introduces readers to the fundamentals—zodiac, planets, signs, and horoscopes—while also covering advanced topics such as dasas and bhuktis, yogas, longevity, horary astrology, medical astrology, female horoscopy, mundane astrology, and annual predictions.

The work blends traditional wisdom, primarily from the Parasari system, with practical illustrations, making it both instructional and research-oriented. With chapters on casting horoscopes, unknown birth times, and real-life case studies, the book equips readers with tools to make accurate predictions and deepens their understanding of astrology as a practical science connected to daily life.
