When a marriage is facing separation or divorce, the pain is profound — for the couple, for children if they are involved, and for both families. It is a moment when clarity matters enormously, but clarity is exactly what grief and crisis make difficult to access.
Pandit Ravishankar Shastri approaches divorce-related consultations with honesty and compassion. He does not take a moralistic position on divorce, and he does not promise outcomes. What he provides is a clear-eyed astrological reading of the situation — whether the current crisis is planetary in nature and likely to shift, or whether it reflects a deeper incompatibility that needs to be acknowledged.
When Difficult Times Are Planetary
Many marriages go through crisis periods that are heavily influenced by planetary transits — particularly Saturn and Rahu crossing the 7th house or natal Venus. During these periods, partners who are fundamentally compatible can feel entirely disconnected, hostile, or indifferent. Knowing that such a period has a defined end — typically 2–3 years for Saturn, shorter for other transits — allows some couples to choose to hold on with conscious strategy rather than making permanent decisions in the depth of a temporary difficulty.
When Compatibility Is the Core Issue
In other cases, chart analysis reveals that the fundamental compatibility was always limited, and the current crisis is the natural outcome of patterns that were present from the beginning. In these situations, the most helpful guidance is honest rather than consoling. Pandit Shastri in these cases focuses on helping the individual understand and navigate the transition — including the timing of important decisions like legal proceedings and property settlement.
Children and Divorce
When children are involved, their wellbeing is always part of the guidance Pandit Shastri provides. The timing of major disruptions like a move or custody change in relation to the children's planetary periods is a practical consideration that astrology can inform.
