The ex-astrologer Tashi Dorji from Yetong Jarshingpoktong village in Mongar District speaks about his family lineage. He explains that his family follows the shamanic and astrological systems that were brought from Tibet to Bhutan by his ancestor Prince Tshangma. He also talks about how the responsibilities of organizing events and rituals would later be shared within the Chaskhar community. As he recalls, Phajo was the first astrologer in Chaskhar community. Tashi Dorji belongs to the lineage of Phajo, and for twenty-five years he acted as the community astrologer. Two more astrologers came after him. Previously there used to be only four to five households, including his, that were responsible for organizing community festivals, providing astrology services and taking care of the temple. However, during his time, Gup Tshewang Rinzin, a locally elected leader of the local administration, and Tshoglop Phuntsho convinced their people to share these responsibilities. This is how the astrologers’ lineage originated and changed over time in Chaskhar.
