Iksha Balan with his original academy logo and signature

Bhalaganesh N R, founder of Iksha International Academy and known professionally as Iksha Balan, is a Vastu consultant, astrologer, numerologist, researcher and teacher. He offers personalised consultations and practical teaching worldwide in Tamil and English through his own methods—Balan Vastu, Iksha Balan Astro and Balan Numero—with a focus on homes, work, names and life decisions.

His practice and methods combine his own findings in Vastu, numerology and astrology with inspiration from Dr. Ravi Ramana in Vastu, blending the zodiac time wheel with the Ashtadikpalas (directional guardians); Dr. Nellai K. Vasanthan in astrology, including name-based Jeeva Lagna, transiting planets over natal planets and cowrie-shell Prasannam; and the long-forgotten Hebrew Pyramid numerology method. His expertise also includes Vedic astrology, Bhrigu Nandi Nadi, Jamakol Arudam, Nameology, Tarot, Pancha Pakshi Shastra, Graphology and guided meditation.
