The predictions that are written on leaves are in effect from the moment a person becomes aware of the benefits that is Nadi Astrology. Therefore, the predictions are written in advance and then read by Nadi readers. There must be million Nadi leaves for every individual in the world. However, the leaves declare that only that the person fulfills his karma, will he receive the leaves. Although these leaves aren’t just meant for Indian citizens, they are also for foreigners as well as other nationals of other faiths and religions. It’s all in the hands of one fate to make the leaf recognized and the predictions made known to the person who is concerned. The genesis of Nadi Astrology (palm leaf reading) can be traced back several thousand years in the past. It is believed that Indian Rishis or sages recorded the patterns of each individual’s existence in palm leaves through their Yogic intuitions. The unique leaves were originally kept in the library of the temple. Then, when they became interested in the subject of Naadi Astrology, they took these leaves out of the library. This is a tradition and is still used by the generations below.

The main Nadi astrology center is located in Vaitheeswarankoil close to Chidambaram located in Tamil Nadu, a state located in South India. In this area, Lord Shiva is believed to have assumed the title as a Vaidhya “Doctor” who suffered the sufferings of his followers. It appears that the palm leaves were first written on animal skins, and some leaves. Later, text was copied onto palm leaves. These texts were preserved through applying peacock’s oil blood.
