Red book is the name of five books, published between 1939 and 1952, which expound an absolutely unique system of Indian astrology now known as the red book system of astrology. These books, each carrying the title red book, were authored by the originator of this system, Pandit Roop Chand Joshi . Scholars, who have studied the red books, have placed its originator-cum-author, Pt Roop Chand Joshi on the same pedestal as the great Bhrigu and Parasar. These days, red book (though presently available in imitated form) is the biggest seller of all astrology books. The red book books were written in Urdu with a sprinkling of Punjabi throughout. Admittedly, at times, these books become somewhat challenging for a non-Punjabi to follow.
This system presents astrology based on palmistry. In general, the books discuss the basics of the red book system, characteristics of the twelve houses and the nine planets, characteristics of each planet as a benefic and malefic in each house. Most important aspect of red book is the identification of malefic planets and easy, inexpensive and extremely effective remedial measures for propitiation of their ill effects. |
