Jain astrology is the study of planetary positions, stars, nakshatras, and auspicious timings as understood in Jain tradition.

In Jain Dharma, it is not the main path to liberation. Jainism teaches that karma, not planets, is the real cause of सुख-दुःख, birth, and life situations. So astrology may be used for calendar calculation, muhurt, or traditional guidance, but the highest emphasis remains on:

• Samyak Darshan right faith
• Samyak Jnana right knowledge
• Samyak Charitra right conduct

So, in simple words: Jain astrology is a traditional auxiliary study, but Jain philosophy says liberation comes through purification of the soul, not through planetary influence.

If you want, I can also explain the difference between Jain astrology and Jain cosmology.
