William Levacy takes a complex subject and translates it gracefully into a great book about Vedic Astrology, life purpose, and career. He has spent over two decades as a Vedic astrologer, has over 20 years experience as a performance specialist in the aerospace business, and has done over 10,000 Vedic Astrology charts for people over the years. I heard Levacy speak on Hay House Radio, and wanted to know more about him and his work both on a personal level and because as a counselor I see clients who are frustrated or burned out in their careers or may be making a life transition and are unsure of what to do next.

The book is divided into four parts, which helps make the material easier to grasp, and it includes a sample CD of Vedic astrology software, so readers can see the basics of what a chart looks like. If you're new to this subject, like I am, you may want to read his other books for more basics about Vedic Astrology (such as Beneath a Vedic Sky, or Vedic Astrology Simply Put-available February 2007), but this is one of the best books I've ever read about career and life purpose and it's helped me tremendously on a personal and professional level.

As a full-time Vedic astrologer of many years, and a fortunate former student of William Levacy, I absolutely love this beautiful book. It takes both a macro, "universal" perspective, explaining the breadth and depth of the philosophies and history of ancient Vedic knowledge, with the micro "personal" perspective of all the ways to understand your individual chart in terms of your talents and career success. Reading this book is like sitting at the feet of the master himself - the power of this writer's brain is astonishing, and yet he makes the information all delightfully available and digestable for everyone from the seasoned student to the beginning seeker. His incredible attention to detail blended with simple, philosophical explanations provides wisdom that can be applied to anyone in any area of their lives.
I highly recommend this book for anyone wanting to further their understanding of their journey in life, astrology, and all things Vedic.

Peace of Mind. That is how I felt after reading Bill Levacy's new book. Beneath a Vedic Sun has helped my entire family. My husband and I learned so much about ourselves, our career paths and our greater life purpose after reading through the entire book, and examining our birth charts. It confirmed the things we were already doing right, and helped us to take specific action where we needed improvement. We also used the information in the book to understand, guide and support our three year old daughter, whose talents are just budding.
Since reading the book, and refering back to it over and over again, I feel a great peace in my mind. I trust in the universe that my entire family is heading in the right direction, and we just have to sit back and enjoy the ride!!
As an Ayurvedic Practitioner, I will definitely reccomend this book to my clients, who are searching for their personal dharma.

I absolutely loved William Levacy's first book, Beneath a Vedic Sky - and I've been waiting for the next, I can't seem to get enough! I am delighted with this new book, Beneath a Vedic Sun. There is so much to learn here - it is just wonderful. Tons of great information, very enlightening. Having the CD included makes it all the more special. Bravo!
