Calculating Lagna in Varga Charts
Ganiteshu Praveeno (Mathematical Ability) - ‘Ganit’ is Mathematics and ‘Praveen’ translates as skilled. Together
they mean that the scholar should be a skilled mathematician capable to mentally calculate numbers in a short
time.
Shabdshastrey Kritshramah (Diligent Linguist) - One who is articulate and diplomatic in usage of words
'Shabdshastrey' and understands the inherent psychological impact they can cause due to inappropriate usage
of words.
Nyayvid (Judicial Balance) - A person who is just and of balanced view. One who observes and decides
impartially.
Bhuddhimaan (Learned, intelligent and efficient) - One who is knowledgeable, learned and proficient in many
sciences.
Deshdikkalagyo (All round knowledge of socio-economics) - One who is aware of the times prevailing, form of
the society, values and customs prevalent at the time and of the place of the native. One should be just and
possess knowledge of various countries, region, its culture and prevalent societal norms.
Jeetehdriyah (Upholds Moral Uprightness through his Senses) - One who has control over his senses. This is
very important aspect and it is so because as an astrologer one is aware of the deepest thoughts prevailing in a
native’s mind. By exercising control over his senses the astrologer will be able to examine events and
personalities in isolation and preserve his inner-self.
Uha-poh-patu (Lateral thinking, power to analyze an issue from various angles) - Many a times the complex
rhythms of planetary positions present conflicting views and the scholar has to dwell over deeply and reach a
conclusion. This requires ability to examine multiple angles, areas and stages of life and world, both material
and spiritual and thereafter reach a decision. One should be able to arrive at a logical conclusion from a maze
of conflicting arguments and deductions.
Hora Skand (Book of Astrology) - Importantly, they should be an avid reader and listener of Hora Skandh
(Astrological treatises). One should derive at solutions or analytical inference after listening, observing and
integrating all the classics and astrological works of the seers and scholars.
Shravan Sammatah - One who listens to it and memorizes its predictive principles.
Maitreya ! Satyatam Yaati Tasya Vaakyam Na Sanshayah !! - Oh Rishi Maitreya (student of Rishi Parashara) if
the person has all these qualities, one should never doubt the words of such a person.
LAGNA: At the time of any event (birth) the Rashi (Zodiac) in eastern horizon.
Rahu / Ketu: Almost clockwise (retrograde) Sun / Moon: Always direct, never retrograde
Rest 5 planets: Both direct / retrograde
Step 1: From the book Table of Ascendants, we will get the SIDEREAL Time (Table 1, Pg 2) at 12hr noon
for 82½° E (IST) for 1900 AD.
Step 2: As this time is for 1900 AD, we will have to do the YEAR Correction for 2019 from the same book,
next table (i.e. Table 2, Pg 3-4) – To be added / subtracted with the above data (Step 1).
Step 3: Again, as the time calculated till Step 2 is IST (for 82½° E), we will have to do the Place correction
(i.e. ascertain LOCAL time for the place, in this case for Hyderabad); reason being different places on different
Longitude & Latitude will have different planetary positions due to their speed etc.
From the same book, next table (i.e. Table 3, Pg 5 (only few city names given) & Pg 100-111 (Major Indian
city list & abroad)) – To be added / subtracted with the above data (Step 2)
Birth Time (Had it been A.M. then we would have to subtract 12 from Hour) 11Hr 50 Min 00 Sec
ex. 11:50AM would been 11 : 50: 00 – 12 : 00 : 00 = 23hr 50Min 00Sec
Step 3 Finding Local Mean Time (L. M. T.) from I. S. T. [same above Table - 16 Min 12 Sec
3 (Pg 103)]
Total 11Hr 33 Min 48 Sec
Step 4 Table 4 (Pg 5) Correction for Hours and Minutes (For 11 Hr) + 1 Min 48 Sec
(For 36Min) + 0 Min 06 Sec
Total (Converted Second to Minute and then to Hour) Part B 11Hr 35 Min 42 Sec
As, in this case we have to ascertain the Ascendent for Hyderabad (Latitude 17° 30’ N), in the book Table of
Ascendants (Pg 26) we get:
11Hr 4Min 00Sec: 7s 17° 18’ 11hr 4Min = 7s 17° 18’ = 7s 16° 78’ (Since 1° = 60Min)
11Hr 0Min 00Sec: 7s 16° 24’ In 4Min (240Sec) = 7s 16° 78’ - 7s 16° 24’ = 54’
11Hr 2Min 09Sec: 7s 16° 53’ Therefore, in 2Min 09Sec (129Sec) = (54 x 129) / 240 = 29.025’ = 29’
11Hr 2Min 09Sec = 11Hr 0Min 00Sec + 29’ = (24+29 = 53’) = 7s 16° 53’
From the book Table of Ascendants (Pg 6) now Ayanamsa Correction for 2019 = - 1° 08’
Ascendent = 7s 16° 53’ - 1° 08’ = 7s 15° 45’ It has passed SEVEN signs and now in EIGHTH sign at 15° 45’
D1 chart is seen to ascertain everything about the body, constitution and health of the native. It is the foremost
chart for predicting future and is complete in itself. All other divisional charts only supplement and can never
replace the birth chart.
From the book “INDIAN EPHEMERIS” we will go to the page for March 2019 (Pg 20 - 21). Here, we will
record the Longitude details for all the planets (as on 14-Mar-2019 & 15-Mar-2019) as this data is for 5:30AM,
we will have to get the result for 14-Mar-2019 at 11:50PM
All the planets have travelled from their position on 14-Mar-2019 to the position on 15-Mar-2019 in 1,440 Mins
(= 1 day = 24Hrs = 24 x 60Mins).
We have to ascertain the respective planet’s position (calculate the degree they have travelled) at 11:50PM in
1100 Mins (11:50PM = 23:50Hrs; 23:50 – 05:30 = 18Hrs 20Min = ((18 x 60) + 20) Min = 1080 + 20 = 1100)
For Calculation: 1s = 30° (12 House = 360°) and 1° = 60Mins (60’); 1Min (1’) = 60Sec (60”)
SUN: 15-Mar-2019 : 10 s 29° 59’ 35” (= 28° 60’+59’-1’ 60”+35” = 28° 118’ 95”)
14-Mar-2019 : 10 s 28° 59’ 46” (118’ 95” – 59’ 46” = (118’-59’ & 95”-46”) = 59’ 49”)
Based on above result, we can say, Since, SUN travelled in 1440min = 3589Seconds
Therefore, we can deduce the distance SUN would have travelled in 1100Mins = ( 3589 x 1100 ) / 1440 =
2741.59Seconds ≈ 45Mins 41.59Seconds (45Mins = 2700Seconds) = 45Mins 42Seconds ≈ 46Mins approx.
We can conclude that SUN would be at 10 s 28° 59’ 46” + 45’ 42” = 10 s 29° 45’ 28” ≈ 10 s 29° 45’
MOON:15-Mar-2019 : 2s 07° 07’ 30” (=1s 37° 07’ 30” = 1s 36° 67’ 30”)
14-Mar-2019 : 1s 23° 34’ 07” (36°67’30” – 23°34’07” = (36-23)° (67-34)’ (30-7)” = 13° 33’ 23”)
Based on above result, we can say, Since, MOON travelled in 1440min = 813Mins
Therefore, we can deduce the distance MOON would have travelled in 1100Mins = ( 813 x 1100 ) / 1440 =
621.04Mins ≈ 10° 21Mins (1° = 60Mins, 10° = 600Mins)
We can conclude that MOON would be at 1s 23° 34’ + 10° 21’ = 2s 03° 55’ (23° + 10° = 33° = 1s 03°)
Based on above result, we can say, Since, MERCURY travelled in 1440min = 57Mins
Therefore, we can deduce the distance MERCURY would have travelled in 1100Mins = ( 57 x 1100 ) / 1440 =
43.542Mins ≈ 44Mins
We can conclude that MERCURY would be at 11s 01° 05’ – 44’ = 11s 00° 21’ (R) (1° 5’ = 65’; 65’ – 44’ = 21’)
Minus, because Mercury is Retrograde (moving in opposite direction; from the data available for 14 th & 15th
Mar’19)
Since, SUN is currently in 11th house at 29° 45’ (calculated above) and Mercury is in 12 th house at 00° 21’; not
very far. If a planet is within 12° from SUN, then it will be COMBUST (It cannot give its result).
Distance between them 29° 45’ – 00° 21’ = 60-45+21 = 36’ (not even 1°, so it’s also COMBUST)
Based on above result, we can say, Since, VENUS travelled in 1440min = 71Mins
Therefore, we can deduce the distance VENUS would have travelled in 1100Mins = ( 71 x 1100 ) / 1440 =
54.24Mins ≈ 54Mins
We can conclude that VENUS would be at 9s 20° 31’ + 54’ = 9s 21° 25’ (31’ + 54’ = 85’ = 1° 25’)
Difference : 40’
Based on above result, we can say, Since, MARS travelled in 1440min = 40Mins
We can conclude that MARS would be at 0s 24° 24’ + 31’ = 0s 24° 55’
Difference : 05’
Based on above result, we can say, Since, JUPITER travelled in 1440min = 5Mins
Therefore, we can deduce the distance JUPITER would have travelled in 1100Mins = ( 5 x 1100 ) / 1440 =
3.819Mins ≈ 4Mins
Difference : 04’
Based on above result, we can say, Since, SATURN travelled in 1440min = 4Mins
Therefore, we can deduce the distance SATURN would have travelled in 1100Mins = ( 4 x 1100 ) / 1440 =
3.05Mins ≈ 3Mins
Difference : 03’
Based on above result, we can say, Since, RAHU travelled in 1440min = 3Mins
Therefore, we can deduce the distance RAHU would have travelled in 1100Mins = ( 3 x 1100 ) / 1440 =
2.292Mins ≈ 2Mins
We can conclude that RAHU would be at 2s 29° 38’ – 2’ = 2s 29° 36’ (Minus, because RAHU always retrograde)
KETU is always Rahu + 6s (180°) So, it will be in 3+6 = 9th house at 29° 36’
Based on above result, we can say, Since, URANUS travelled in 1440min = 3Mins
Therefore, we can deduce the distance URANUS would have travelled in 1100Mins = ( 3 x 1100 ) / 1440 =
2.292Mins ≈ 2Mins
Difference : 03’
Based on above result, we can say, Since, NEPTUNE travelled in 1440min = 3Mins
Therefore, we can deduce the distance NEPTUNE would have travelled in 1100Mins = ( 3 x 1100 ) / 1440 =
2.292Mins ≈ 2Mins
We can conclude that NEPTUNE would be at 10s 22° 18’ + 2’ = 10s 22° 20’
Difference : 02’
Based on above result, we can say, Since, PLUTO travelled in 1440min = 2Mins
Therefore, we can deduce the distance PLUTO would have travelled in 1100Mins = ( 2 x 1100 ) / 1440 =
1.53Mins ≈ 1’
The divisional charts are basically used to establish the strengths and weaknesses of a planet. A planet is
strong if posited in own or exaltation signs in vargas. Further, in various vargas the planet may be posited in
friendly, inimical or neutral signs etc. which together with other predictive techniques of analysing divisional
charts reveal a wealth of information.
The strength of a planet must be understood with the backdrop of planetary friendship and enmity which is
broadly of two types. The permanent friendship and the temporary friendship. The permanent or 'naisargika'
friendship is calculated from the mooltrikona sign of a planet. The lords of 2, 4, 5, 8, 9, 12 houses from the
mooltrikona sign of a planet are its friends and others its enemies. If one lordship signifies friendship and the
other enmity then such a planet is termed as neutral. The temporary or 'tatkalika' friendship is calculated from
the interplanetary position. Planets posited in 2, 3, 4, 10, 11, 12 houses from the planet are its temporary
friends and others its enemies.
In D1 chart, planets in the odd bhav (1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 11) and their degree between 0°-15° are allotted to Leo
and those between 15°-30° are allotted to Cancer. Similarly, planets in even bhav (2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12) and their
degree between 0°-15° are allotted to Cancer and those in between 15°-30° are allotted to Leo, i.e. opposite of
odd bhav.

Jupiter, Sun and Mars are good in Sun's hora (Leo’s ruling deity) whereas Moon, Venus and Saturn are good in
Moon's hora (Cancer’s ruling deity). Mercury is effective in both the horas. In an odd sign Sun's hora is powerful
whereas in an even sign Moon's hora is powerful.
Another viewpoint, Benefic planets are considered good in even signs and in the hora of Moon. Whereas
malefics give good results in odd signs and in the hora of Sun. The effects of a hora are strongest when a
planet is placed in the 1st one-third part of the hora, medium in the 2nd one-third part and nil in the 3rd one-
third part of the hora.

This chart is seen for brothers and sisters of the native. It is also seen for happiness or otherwise which
native may derive through co-borns and family ties. It indicates the birth (and death) of brothers and sisters.
This chart also indicates the nature of death of the native depending upon the nature of 22nd dreshkon.
Each sign (Zodiac) of 30° is divided into three parts of 10° each. Planet with degree between 0°-10° will be
positioned in the same sign itself. Planet with degree between 10°-20° will be positioned in the 2nd dreshkon
i.e. in 5th bhav from the sign and the Planet with degree between 20°-30° will be positioned 3rd dreshkon i.e. in

This divisional chart reveals the spiritual inclinations of the native. Any amount of happiness and prosperity
is not complete without the leanings towards philosophy, religion and compassion. This chart therefore,
indicates the purvapunyas or accumulated virtues of the past life capable of giving appropriate results in the
present life. This chart can also reveal suitable deity for propitiation and worship.
Each sign of 30° is divided into 5 divisions of 6° each. In moveable signs the counting starts from the sign

It is the most important divisional chart and is rightly considered to be the supplementary birth chart.
Normally predictions are not ventured without Navamsha chart. It reveals inter alia the strength or weakness of
the planet and the periods of stresses or strains in life. This chart is basically seen for married life, partner,
temperament, disposition, character of the spouse, happiness and miseries in married life etc.
In this chart each sign of 30° is divided into 9 parts of 3°20' each. One of the peculiarities of Hindu astrology is
the use of nakshatras or constellations. There are 27 nakshatras each having 4 parts or padas. Thus there are
27 multiplied by 4 = 108 nakshatra padas. Dividing the 360° by 108 we get each nakshatra pada to have a
longitude of 3°20' each which coincides with each navamsha division of 3°20'. This explains the importance of
the Navamsha and its justified use as a supplementary birth chart.
Vargottama refers to a planet occupying the same zodiac sign in both the D1 and D9 charts.
