One can believe in jyotisha, but it is of less importance for those who are in spiritual pursuit.
You fogot to add ' according to me ' before the post.
You don't know anything about jyotisha . Jyotisha has a great importance in hindu dharma .
In shastras it is mentioned that jyotisha is among 14 vidyas. Studying it is a virtue and gives prosperity in all fields including spirituality.
Doing shanti of planents, can significantally help in removing spiritual obstacles formed by bad karma.
14 Vidya (techniques) consist of -
4 Ved :
Rugved
Samved
Yajurved
Atharvaved
4 Upved :
Arthashastra : An ancient Indian Hindu treatise on statecraft, economic policy and military strategy which identifies its author by the names Kautilya and Vishnugupta.
Dhanurved : The term derives from the words for bow (dhanushya) and knowledge (veda), literally the "science of archery".
Gandharvaveda : An ancient Indian treatise on the performing arts, encompassing theatre, dance and music.
Ayurveda : The word ayurveda consists of the words ayus, meaning "longevity", and veda, meaning "related to knowledge" or "science". Thus Ayurveda is the science of life.
6 Vedange : There are six Vedangas: Shiksha (phonetics), Kalpa (rituals), Vyakarana (grammar), Jyotishya (astronomy), Nirukta (etymology) and Chhandas (metrics). These are mentioned in the Upanishads.
Shiksha : Shiksha is one of the six Vedangas, treating the traditional Hindu science of phonetics and phonology of Sanskrit. Its aim is the teaching of the correct pronunciation of the Vedic hymns and mantras.
Kalpa : One of the six disciplines of Vedanga, treating ritual.
Vyakaran : The Sanskrit grammatical tradition of vyakarana is one of the six Vedanga disciplines. It has its roots in late Vedic India, and includes the famous work, Astadhyayi, of Panini.
Nirukta : Nirukta ("explanation, etymological interpretation") is one of the six Vedanga disciplines of Hinduism, treating etymology, particularly of obscure words, especially those occurring in the Vedas. The discipline is traditionally attributed to Yaska, an ancient Sanskrit grammarian. In practical use, nirukta consists of brief rules (sutras) for deriving word meanings, supplemented with glossaries of difficult or rare Vedic words.
Chhanda : In Sanskrit, it refers to the study of Vedic meter in Classical Sanskrit poetry.
Jyotish : Jyotisa (Sanskrit jyotisa, from jyotis- "light, heavenly body": also anglicized Jyotish and Jyotisha) is the Hindu system of astrology (also known as Indian astrology, Hindu astrology, and of late, Vedic astrology). Traditionally, it has three branches -
1. Siddhanta : traditional Indian astronomy.
2a. Samhita
2b. Medini Jyotisha (mundane astrology) : Predicting important events based on analysis of astrological dynamics in a country's horoscope or general transit events such as war, earthquakes, political events, financial positions, electional astrology; house and construction related matters (Vastu Shastra), animals, portents, omens etc.
3. Hora : Predictive astrology based on analysis of natal horoscopes and the moment a query is made.
Instead of propagating personal claim, first learn jyotisha from hindu guru and know the hidden signicance of jyotisha in spirituality
