In Hinduism
Jyotisha (astronomy and astrology)
Adhīta (अधीत) refers to “one who is well-versed in a particular science”, according to the first chapter of the Hāyanaratna—a nibandha or meta-commentary drawing on many important expositions of Tājika or Perso-Arabic astrology.—Accordingly, “The word Tājika denotes the treatise composed by Yavanācārya in the Persian language, comprising one area of astrology and having for its outcome the prediction of the various kinds of results of annual [horoscopy] and so on. That same treatise was rendered into the Sanskrit language by those born after him, Samarasiṃha and other Brahmans versed (adhīta) in grammar, and that [work], too, is denoted by the word Tājika”.
Jyotisha (ज्योतिष, jyotiṣa or jyotish) refers to ‘astronomy’ or “Vedic astrology” and represents the fifth of the six Vedangas (additional sciences to be studied along with the Vedas). Jyotisha concerns itself with the study and prediction of the movements of celestial bodies, in order to calculate the auspicious time for rituals and ceremonies.
