There is a specific procedure to enter in Naadi Astrology to know about one’s life past, present and future. The Great Seers, Maharishies found the thumb print of an individual as a suitable key to enter in Naadi Astrology to the purpose of consultation.They classified the modes (genetic identities) found in the thumb in more than one hundred categories. For each mode the relevant bundles are kept separated. When a client comes to know what is there in stock for him the Naadi Astrologer takes the thumb print to ascertain the mode and following that he separates the bundles pertaining to that mode. Each bundle contains 50 to 100 leaves having the carving (script written) in ancient Tamil, speaking about the life of the clients. Each leaf will have the index of a particular person such as the person’s date of birth as per the Tamil almanac, parentage, age at the time of going through this procedure, marital status, employment etc., in the codified form.The Naadi Astrologer will decode the information found in the leaf in simple Tamil, the local language to be understood by the client and for the verification of the identities of the client.

When all the information/identities of the client are found in a particular leaf are correct, then the Naadi Astrologer will read the entire leaf containing all information of that client in nutshell. This particular reading is named as general chapter. Though the Maharishies gave a brief narration of all about the life of the client they did not fail to present a detailed version of it in relevant subsequent chapters. The general chapter is mandatory to go through all other chapters.

Following that the Great Seers spoke about the entire expanse of one’s life presented in twelve various segments called as twelve Bhavas. The first one is the general description of the life of a person and nothing will be so profound in it. But the Bhavas excepting the first one will describe a separate part of life in detail. For an example chapter 2 describes in detail education, inflow of money, eye sight, collection of valuables, gems and ornaments etc., So also other chapters speaking about other areas of life.
