Dr. Chittaranjan Shastri
Born Chittaranjan Roy and also known professionally as Chittaranjan Paul Sastri, Dr. Shastri has built a Kolkata-based practice around Vedic astrology and related traditional disciplines. People approach him at turning points: when a relationship is uncertain, a marriage is being considered, an education or career path is changing, or a family or business question needs careful thought.
For him, the birth chart is the beginning of a conversation rather than the whole conversation. He first listens to the concern and the circumstances behind it, then considers the traditional interpretations that may be relevant. This individual approach matters because two people can ask the same question while living very different lives. A consultation is therefore shaped by the person in front of him, not by a single answer prepared in advance.
His work brings together horoscope reading, numerology, Vastu, Tantra, Mantra and Yantra. Each has its own place in the practice. Astrology may help frame a discussion of timing or relationships; Vastu may be raised when a client asks about a home or workplace; spiritual traditions may be discussed when they are part of the client’s concern. Recommendations are offered as traditional perspectives, with no promise that a particular result will follow.
Dr. Shastri’s background includes a diploma from the Shree Maharishi College of Vedic Astrology and life membership of the Adi Tantra Yoga Foundation. His published biography also lists a Ph.D. in Astrology. Formal study sits alongside the ongoing experience of meeting people, hearing their stories and translating traditional ideas into a conversation they can understand.
His public profile extends beyond private readings. The photo archive includes award gatherings, cultural programmes and encounters with guests from public life, including an appearance with entrepreneur Aman Gupta at the Inspiring Leaders Awards 2024. Those images document occasions and associations; they are separate from the private experience of a consultation.

Questions about a life partner, family, education, career, business, financial strain and personal direction.
Complementary systems that may be brought into a consultation when they suit the question.

Spiritual traditions with a sense of place.
Tarapith in Birbhum, Kamakhya in Guwahati, Shree Pitambara Peeth in Madhya Pradesh and Trimbakeshwar in Maharashtra are among the places associated with his ritual practice. These traditions sit alongside the more familiar consultation work of kundali reading and personal guidance.
