Planetary Hora’s

Hora’s can be used to plan out your days and decide which hours you want to begin certain activities but you also have a natal planetary hour in which you born under. This can tell a lot about your life and the things that were going on around the time of your birth. It can even tell about your appearance

D2 (Hora Chart) : Your Potential to Create Wealth

This post will provide general info on the D2. THIS METHOD IS NOT CREATED BY ME. I have spent awhile researching and thought some may like to know this information as well. Astro Losik and KRS are helpful youtube channels.

I have tested this info out on people I know in real life. I find it crazy accurate.

For full accuracy, this would have to be read alongside natal & d9.

If finding out you have many negatives would cause you stress, please do not read. Measure your success by your own efforts.

Step One:

Generate a D2 chart. If you choose astroseek, make sure to put it in whole sign. Make sure Uranus, Pluto and any asteroids do not appear.

When you see your chart, you will notice that the ASC is either in Cancer or Leo. If you have ASC in any other sign, you have incorrectly generated the chart.

Step Two:

Below, I have listed the positives and negatives. You can tally whether you have more positives or negatives.

Many positives = Great amount of wealth.

Many negatives = You may go through periods where you struggle with money. Try to avoid debt. Try to become more disciplined in saving.

Equal (or almost equal) amount of positives & negatives = Moderate amount of wealth. Ups & Downs. Nothing too extreme.

💲 If you have Mars, Jupiter & Sun in Leo. This is a positive.

💲 If you have Venus & Moon in Cancer. This is a positive.

💲 5 or more planets ( rahu & ketu are not planets) in Cancer is a positive.

💲 5 or more planets rahu & ketu are not planets) in Leo is a negative.

💲 If your natal vedic chart (D1) 2nd House ruler is in 1st or 2nd of the hora (D2) chart, this is a positive.

💲 If your natal vedic chart (D1) 2nd House ruler is in 12th of the hora (D2) chart, this is a negative.

💲 If the 2nd House ruler of the hora (D2) is in 2nd or 11th, this is a positive.

💲 If the 2nd House ruler of the hora (D2) is in 1st or 12th this is a negative.

💲 All or most of your planets in 2nd or 1st is a positive.

💲 All or most of your planets in 12th is a negative.

I have noticed that if you do not have any planets in 12th, you are more likely to overcome any negative. Financial setbacks may occur in life likely because these people often have a lesson in regard to money (saving, budgeting, etc). Once it is learned, they become successful.

PLEASE READ:

Do not be discouraged by having negatives. This can indicate you struggle with savings and asserting yourself. And I have noticed, those with many negatives, simply have a lack of interest in creating wealth. They aren’t wealthy but they have a roof over them, food to eat and enough to spend on hobbies and desires (video games, clothes, a vacation, etc.) They're happy and live good lives.

For example, my cousin with many 12th House placements in D2, was once homeless (living in his car). He had moved to a city that he couldn't afford with his spending habits. However, for a long time he did not want to leave the city. So yes, he struggled but according to him, it was an enjoyable experience. He's the kinda guy who would enjoy living in his van and travelling. But it is true he struggles with money & often is asking his parents for help.

However, even if you have many 12th H placements. You are not destined to be broke at all.

Those who have many positives I have noted are always either: born into wealth OR are very driven. They do care for creating/having wealth. They often think about ways to branch out and invest to make more. It’s a rewarding experience for them to work for their wealth. ngl they just thrive in capitalism.

Some of the people I know with many positives only had a moderate amount of wealth themselves. It wasn't until marriage, joining wealth, they became very wealthy. For example, my aunt who worked a regular office job until meeting her husband. They opened up a business together that has become very successful. You may not find that wealth until much later in life.

D-2 Hora divisional chart (varga)

Previously I got some feedback from my readers, who said that it would be interesting to get more information about divisional charts aka vargas. I decided to start making posts about them.

In Vedic astrology, divisional charts, or vargas, play a key role in providing a detailed and precise understanding of a person’s life. Each varga represents specific areas of life, and together, they offer a multi-dimensional view of an individual's destiny.

The D-2 Chart, also known as the Hora Chart, is the second divisional chart following the main natal chart (D-1 Rasi Chart). Like the second house in the natal chart, which represents material wealth, values, and family heritage, the D-2 Chart provides insights into a person’s financial potential, wealth-building tendencies, and prosperity.

THE KEY CHARACTERISTICS OF D-2 CHART

The D-2 Hora Chart is split into 2 segments, each governed by either Cancer or Leo, including Lagna (Ascendant) and Lagnesha (Ascendant ruler):

Cancer (Moon’s Hora): Represents inherited wealth through family and other sources, emotional security, and family ties.

Leo (Sun’s Hora): Reflects self-made wealth, ambition, and personal effort.

Each zodiac sign (30 degrees) is divided in half, with:

0° to 15° representing odd signs (Aries, Gemini, Leo, Libra, Sagittarius, Aquarius), governed by Leo and the Sun (symbolizing self-made wealth and personal effort).

15° to 30° representing even signs (Taurus, Cancer, Virgo, Scorpio, Capricorn, Pisces), governed by Cancer and the Moon (indicating inherited wealth and emotional or family connections).

ASTROLOGICAL HOUSES IN THE D-2 Chart

In the Hora Chart, all planets are located in the 1st, 2nd, or 12th houses, each representing different financial dynamics:

1st House: Shows how one initiates efforts to generate wealth and their general outlook on money and resources.

2nd House: Represents financial stability and wealth accumulation. Planets here influence income sources, financial habits, and attitudes toward material possessions. This house can also indicate family support in wealth-building.

12th House: Reflects expenditures, hidden resources, and emotional influences on finances. Planets here may point to potential losses or subconscious spending habits and can indicate wealth obtained or lost through emotional or spiritual factors.

Moon’s Hora (Cancer)

Material Focus: Individuals with key placements in Cancer tend to value emotional security over material accumulation. They may rely on family connections and support rather than focusing solely on personal financial gains.

Emotional Wealth: A Cancer emphasis often favours emotional satisfaction over material wealth, particularly when benefic planets like the Moon, Venus, or Jupiter are involved. These placements can foster fulfilment from relationships and family bonds rather than from financial success alone.

Destiny and Support: Cancer placements suggest financial stability often comes through unexpected avenues like gifts, inheritances, or family ties.

Ancestral Heritage: A strong Cancer presence highlights family connections and support that may manifest as financial assistance, business links, or inherited assets.

Sun’s Hora (Leo)

Ambition and Leadership: Individuals with significant placements in Leo, especially with planets like the Sun, Mars, Saturn, or Rahu, are often driven by ambition, seeking status and financial success.

Self-Made Wealth: Leo's connection with the Sun emphasizes wealth generated through personal efforts, often with a focus on achieving financial independence and public recognition.

Material Gains: Leo placements generally bring a focus on wealth accumulation, which can lead to financial success when supported by favourable planetary aspects and influences.

Optimal Planetary Placements for Financial Success

For optimal wealth-building potential:

Malefic Planets (e.g., Sun, Mars, Saturn) favour the first 15 degrees of odd signs (Leo Hora).

Benefic Planets (e.g., harmonious Moon, Jupiter, Venus) thrive in the first 15 degrees of even signs (Cancer Hora).

Mercury, as a neutral planet, can yield positive results in either Hora.

Inverse Placement Effects: When malefic planets occupy the Moon’s Hora in odd signs and benefic planets are placed in the Sun’s Hora in even signs, financial growth may be hindered. This configuration can weaken resources and create obstacles to wealth accumulation.

Mixed Hora Results: In most cases, individuals experience a blend of financial results due to planets distributed fairly evenly between both Horas. This balance reflects a combination of self-made wealth and inherited support, shaping a varied financial profile that includes both personal and family influences.

Sun in Taurus II (29 April - 9 May)

April 29, 2024 at 4:29 pm EDT, is the start of the Sun’s season in Taurus II, The Lingam Yoni as Austin Coppock named it (T. Susan Chang called it mysteries at the threshold, based on its associations with the Six of Pentacles). It begins at 4:29 pm EDT. Although Taurus as a whole is the dominion of Venus (lately entered the sign), Taurus II is the special province or department of the Moon who…

↺ AUSPICIOUS PLACEMENTS TO HAVE IN NATAL CHART

basics of vedic astrology. ask box. pinned.

note: only applicable to vedic charts. apply to western charts at your own accord.

these are general placements and don't guarantee anything on their own. if you want to be a shitty person, then even mahabhagya yogas or mahapurusha yogas will yield negative results and bring bad luck and accompany a massive fall from fame.

mars / saturn in the 3rd house + house lord present in another house (not mandatory, but makes it better)

both mars and saturn are naturally malefic planets and naturally, harm the house they are sitting in. when these planets sit in the upchaya houses (3,6,11), then their immense malefic energy is converted into courage, valor, and strength. it is best when these planetss sit in the 3rd house, however. 3rd house is the house of initiation. having mars in this house increases the quality of leadership in the native. it makes them especially brave and gives them the opportunity to master the negative side of their mars and make it even more auspicious. even having a maraka mars is good in this house because it will repeatedly put you in positions where you are made to realize and accept your negative qualities, and also rewarded for mastering them. saturn in 3rd house disciplines the fluttery, airy nature associated with this house. of course, curiosity is still pretty much the trademark of any 3rd house placement, but saturn here disciplines one's efforts towards learning in younger years and taking initiative when older. in particular, it bestows the power of impressive speech that is enough to make heads turn.

benefic planets in the 1st, 2nd, 5th, 9th, 11th / laxmi houses or laxmi yoga

in the horoscope, if the 1st lord, 2nd lord, and 11th lord are situated in self-owned sign, then the person will be rich. if the mutual zodiac sign exchange of the 2nd and 11th lord is happening or 11th lord is in 11th house, then one attains lakshmi. if the lagnesh is located in 2nd house and 2nd lord is in the 11th house or 11th lord in the second house of the horoscope, then lakshmi yoga is formed. in the horoscope, if the moon is located in an auspicious zodiac along with venus but not in the sixth house then good wealth is attained. this is really a very lucky placement imo. goddess lakshmi personally gives her blessings to these people, and for hindus, it is highly recommended to pray to goddess lakshmi with a genuine, clear heart and revere her as a mother. however, do be cautious that you also pray to shri vishnu because goddess lakshmi rides an owl, and owls on their own bring darkness. when goddess lakshmi comes into ones life with shri vishnu, they come on the king of the birds, garuda and spread light and divinity into one's life.

the mahapurusha yogas

having any of the mahapurusha yogas is literally a lottery ticket placement lmao. the planet forming the yoga immediately becomes one of the dominant planets of your personality and it is especially pronounced if the yoga is formed in the 1st-7th house axis. for ex. i have hamsa yoga in 7th house and a mars ak; i also have a younger brother. in his chart's 11th house, he has jupiter and mars. hence, despite having no jupiter dominance otherwise, jupiter becomes one of my dominant planets. i also have pronounced physical features that are associated with a hamsa yoga because jupiter is aspecting the ascendant and hence heavily influences my looks.

i. hamsa yoga — jupiter

when jupiter in cancer / pisces / sagittarius is present in any of the kendra houses. preferably but not mandatorily, without conjunctions with any other planet and not retrograde.

to quote the brihat parashara hora shastra:

the native with hamsa (swan, in hindi) yoga has a virtuous personality and is learned in the vedas. the hamsa native has voice like a swan, has a handsome appearance and well developed nose. they are a king with phlegmatic temperament, honey like tawny coloured eyes, red, coloured nails, sharp intelligence, sturdy cheeks, round, forehead and beautiful feet. they have marks of matsya (fish), ankush (the iron hook with which elephants are driven), dhanusha (bow), shankh (conch), kamal (lotus) in their hands and feet. they are very passionate and their lust remains unfulfilled. they are fond of swimming and playing games in watery places. they enjoy life fully and live as affluent, influential people and attain the pleasure of proper burial / cremation of their body after their death. they are most likely to own fertile lands near river beds, like near the ganga and yamuna.

one highlightable feature here is that these people have very beautifully formed feet; starting narrow and turning slightly broad by the tips with inwardly shaped toes that are often long and with shiny, clean pinkish nails. their feet are naturally warm but have a tendency quickly becoming cold and have light pink soles. such feet are highly auspicious and regardless of any yoga, are indicative of a good jupiter.

ii. malavya yoga — venus

when venus in taurus / libra / pisces is present in any of the kendra houses. preferably but not mandatorily, without conjunctions with any other planet and not retrograde, again, preferably.

to quote the brihat parashara hora shastra:

the malavya native has beautiful lips and a slender waist. they are lustrous like the moon and have fragrance in their body. they are of ordinary red complexion, have a medium stature and clean and beautiful teeth. their voice is like that of an elephant and their arms are long enough to reach upto his knees. they live happily for as owner of lands such as sindhu and malwa and then leaves for the heavenly abode.

iii. ruchaka yoga — mars

when mars in aries / scorpio/ capricorn is present in any of the kendra houses. preferably but not mandatorily, without conjunctions with any other planet and not retrograde, again, preferably.

to quote the brihat parashara hora shastra:

the ruchaka native possesses a long face, he is very enthusiastic, has spotless lustre, is powerful, has attractive brows, black hair and is fond of all things. they love to fight wars, are victorious over enemies, are discriminative, are protector of thieves and has cruel temperament and slender thighs. they are a devotee of brahmins, have marks of veena (musical instrument of goddess saraswati), dhanusha (bow), pasha(pāśa, often translated as "noose" or "lasso", is a supernatural weapon depicted in hindu iconography. hindu deities such as ganesha, yama, shyamala devi and varuna are depicted with the pasha in their hands.) and vrasha (unsure what this means, typically refers to a division of earth separated by mountain ranges but it doesn't make sense here; if anyone knows, please let me know as well) signs in their hands along with chakra rekha / line. they are well versed in occult sciences. they are tall, with a thin, slender waist and attractive physique.

these natives live an averagely long life and are most likely to be owner of lands of hilly regions or with red soils.

iv. bhadra yoga — mercury

when mercury in gemini / virgo is present in any of the kendra houses. preferably but not mandatorily, without conjunctions with any other planet and not retrograde, again, preferably.

to quote the brihat parashara hora shastra:

the bhadra native is splendorous like a lion, has very developed chest (or chest with well developed muscles), has the gait of an elephant, has long and thick arms, is learned in all respects. they are well versed in yoga performance, are of satwaguna qualities and have beautiful feet and a beautifully formed forehead. they are fond of luxuries and comforts and have marks of sankha (conch), chakra, gada, arrow, elephant, dhwaja (flag) and hala (plough) in their hands and feet. they are well versed in shastras, have black and curly hair, possess independent nature, and are a protector of their family. their friends share in the enjoyment of their wealth. they live happily with their wife and children and as the owners of Madhya Desha and enjoy a long life.

v. sasa yoga — saturn

when saturn in capricorn / aquarius / libra is present in any of the kendra houses. preferably but not mandatorily, without conjunctions with any other planet and not retrograde, again, preferably.

to quote the brihat parashara hora shastra:

the sasa native has small sized teeth and face but their body is not small. they are valorous. they have a slender waist and beautiful thighs. they are wise and enjoy wandering in forests and mountains. they are well versed in the loopholes (weaknesses) of the enemy. they are lively, virile and fond of women. they usurp other people’s wealth. they have marks of mala (garland), mridanga (musical instruments) and weapons in their hands and feet. they live averagely long lives and most often attain the higher lokas after death. in terms of land, there is no specification; they rule over lands that they desire.

sasa yoga gives enhanced results if venus is present with libra saturn, or is in good dignity, overall.

no malefics in the 2nd-8th house axis / 4th-10th house axis + benefic moon

this is pretty much a placement that indicates having a balanced and peaceful mental health. this is especially pronounced if only benefics are present in these axes or if they are entirely empty. it gives a good, stable childhood and responsible guardians / parents. it's not as flattering as many of the other placements here, but this is a favourable placement for your mental health. sudden death, spontaneity and sudden loss of wealth are prevented through this. of course, a lot of exceptions are applicable here, too. like rahu-ketu axis in the 1st-7th house or being born under a waning moon / new moon period which makes the moon a malefic and destroys inner peace. seriously though, having a weak moon is a curse because it hinders passion, creativity, self expression, focus and intelligence.

other forms of the mahapurusha yogas that are particularly lucky but i needn't elaborate:

venus / jupiter in 7th house in own sign / exalted sign: good for relationships and business exalted mars in 10th house: good for career and helps in cultivating drive. exalted jupiter in 1st house: a very likeable, pleasant, virtuous and amazing personality.

exalted /favourable ketu

a favourable ketu is less karmic baggage and favours the native's pursuit towards occult science. it also makes the native question society and the way it works; an exalted ketu puts its energy into attracting knowledge and spiritual elements into one's life. this for sure indicates a person with high moral values and good samskaar / 'behaviour', for lack of a better english equivalent. once again, this is not as flattering as the others, but it reduces the obstacles to be faced in life. a good ketu attracts peace into native's life.

mahabhagya 'highly fortunate' yoga

it is pretty rare since quite a few demands are to be met, but if you have it in your chart, then it means that you have collected a lot of good karma in your previous lives and will be blessed with all sorts of luxuries and guidance from divine energies in this life. for male natives, sun, moon and lagna must occupy odd signs and should be strong during the daytime. for female it should be vice versa to get the full power of this yoga. this yoga is applicable only when the sun, moon and lagna are not affected by malefics or are not malefics themselves. note that amavasya moon and waning moon are malefics. note that in vedic culture, day and night are defined via the sunrise and sunset time; so make sure that for male natives, you were born after sunrise, and for female natives, you were born after sunset and before next day's sunrise. the native is born into a good and affluent family and enjoys all sorts of comforts in their childhood. this yoga is literally all sunshine and daisies, it has no bad aspect. if you have it, then you will be blessed with all sorts of luxuries in life. the best things about it is that it blesses you with well-wishers in life so that you never go astray your life path. the divine is with you, and all pursuits become successful.

Divisional Charts in Vedic Astrology

Hi guys! How are you? I'm good and I hope you are too. So, this will be another post about Vedic astrology. I wanted to post this blog yesterday, but I was so tired for no damn reason. Also, thank you for liking my post about the nakshatras. I didn't expect it to do this well. This will be finally a bigger post after a couple of days ago. Hope you'll find it interesting.

Divisional charts are multiple charts in Vedic astrology which represent various things in our life. Each divisional chart analyses particular thing in our life, such as money, marriage, career, education, spirituality, strengths and weakness, our relationships with our siblings, children, parents etc. There's overall 16 divisional charts that are considered as the most important ones and I'm gonna explain in this post each of these divisional charts individually.

Rasi Chart (D1) - This is the most important chart in Vedic astrology and is basically the actual birth chart of ours. It is also called as Lagna Chart and Lagna means Ascendant. This is the type of chart where the Ascendant is always placed (or we can also say that it's fixed) in the 1st house and it represents our physical world and our overall life path in general.

Hora Chart (D2) - This divisional chart is related with the 2nd house and it represents our financial status, family wealth and how we can make money in this lifetime. There's only two signs in this chart, Cancer and Leo and both of these planets are ruled by the luminaries (the Moon and the Sun), meaning that there's a spiritual way (Moon Hora) and a creative way (Sun Hora) to make money.

Drekkana Chart (D3) - This chart is associated with the 3rd house and it represents our siblings and how we interact with them. If you don't have any sibling on your family, then this divisional chart can represent your inner world and your type of personality that you may hide from the other people in general.

Chaturthamsa Chart (D4) - Of course, this chart is related with the 4th house as well. It can represent our foundations, fortune and inherited property from our family. From my perspective, this divisional chart is also associated with our living place, childhood and our private life.

Saptamsa Chart (D7) - Since it's related with the 5th house, this chart represents our progeny, children and how we interact with them. We can see both luck and misfortune our children might experience. It can also represent our procreative energy, spiritual beliefs and our creative abilities.

Navamsa Chart (D9) - This is mostly the most important or the most popular divisional chart in Vedic astrology. Well, this chart represents our love life, marriage and our life path at the older years of our life. The placements from this chart may become more relevant to us after we turn 25. You can book a reading of this divisional chart individually with me.

Dasamsa Chart (D10) - This chart is related with the 10th house and Saturn, which means that it represents our career path, profession, how we interact with our work environment and our public image. It can show which kind of career is the most suitable for us so we can achieve success in our field. Again, this is another divisional chart that you can book a reading with me individually.

Dwadasamsa Chart (D12) - This divisional chart represents our parents and how we interact with them. It can also represent how our parents influenced our childhood and upbringing, the financial status of our parents and what we can inherit from our parents.

Shodasamsa Chart (D16) - I mostly hear that this chart represents our vehicles or which type of vehicles are the most suitable for us. We can use this divisional chart to see how we seek pleasure and comfort in life and how we connect with the money, since this chart is related with the 11th house.

Vimsamsa Chart (D20) - This divisional chart is connected with spirituality, so it represents how we approach to spiritual pursuits and religious activities. It can also represent our philosophical identity and growth of our spirituality in our life.

ChaturVimsamsa Chart (D24) - This chart is related to our educational path, learning abilities and how knowledgeable we are. If you want to know which college degrees are the most suitable for you, this divisional is great to analyze then.

SaptaVimsamsa Chart (D27) - This divisional chart is associated with our strengths and weaknesses, our what we are good at it and what we lack. This chart is not really used often.

Trimsamsa Chart (D30) - You'll possibly hear that this chart is about evils. By saying that, it can mean that this divisional chart can show which type of hardships, diseases and misfortunes we might experience in our life. This chart is also associated with the enemies, since it's related with the 6th house.

KhaVedamsa Chart (D40) - It can represent our karmic bond or relationship with our mother or with our ancestors This divisional chart can show our both auspicious and inauspicious effects in our charts or in relationships with out ancestors.

AkshaVedamsa Chart (D45) - This divisional is also not used often, 'cause its interpretation is so general. It can represent our character moral and ethical values. It's also about our karmic patterns from our father of from other ancestors.

Shastiamsa Chart (D60) - I find this divisional chart as one of the most heard and one of the most important charts in Vedic astrology. It can show our karma from our past life and our overall life path from this current incarnation.

Alright, this could the the end of another astrological post. Let me know in the comment section what do you think about this topic. And if you want to know more about any of your divisional chart, you can book a Mini Sidereal Chart Reading on my site. See you soon!

Best regards, Paky McGee

Introduction to Shadbala

Shadbala is a Vedic Astrology Quantitative Method used to determine the strength of a planet in one's Natal Chart. It is said to mean 6 Fold Strength because as per calculation, 6 different levels of strength are used to calculate the overall authority of the planet.

Having any planet as your Shadbala does not always mean it’s good. Strength can be good or bad. Your Shadbala is the energy that you have the easiest time expressing. Low Shadbala (or the planet with NO energy) is the energy you have the hardest time expressing and therefore need to work towards. For example, someone with The Sun as their Shadbala has an easy time expressing themselves through their personal talents and creative abilities. But if this person also has Saturn as having no energy in their Shadbala Chart, then it can indicate that this person may have a harder time with responsibility, structure, and commitment.

Think of it like this; the lower a planet is in your Shadbala, the less energy that planet has to do its job.

Strength is calculated using Shashtiamsha which is essentially a point system consisting of 5 Categories, two of which have 5 and 9 Sub-Categories.

The Five Categories are Positional Strength, Directional Strength, Temporal Strength, Motional Strength, Permanent Strength, and Aspect Strength.

I do not advise anyone to use this manual method to calculate their Shadbala. (Unless you really want to). This is just for informational purposes.This method takes 1-2 Hours for the average Astrologer to complete. Which is why the Shadbala Calculator exists.

Calculator Here

Positional Strength (Sthana Bala) - This is basically planetary dignities. The position of a planet determines the amount of strength it will have.

Oocha Bala - If a planet is at the EXACT degree of Exaltation, the planet gets 60 points. Exact degrees of exaltation are as follows:

Sun: 19th degree of Aries 

Moon: 3rd degree of Taurus

Mercury: 15th degree of Virgo

Venus: 24th degree of Pisces

Mars: 28th degree of Capricorn

Jupiter: 15th degree of Cancer

Saturn: 21st degree of Libra

If a planet is in the opposite sign or at the EXACT degree of Fall it does not get any points. Usually this is not the case and in the event that a planet falls on a degree other than the points of Fall and exaltation, points are given based on the median number of those two degrees.

Saptavargaja Bala - To calculate the strength we look at Rasi, Hora, Drekkana, Saptamsa, Navamsa, Dwadasamsa and Trimsamsa charts.

In the Rasi Chart ONLY, if a planet occupies its Moolatrikana (sign of its Rulership at a specific degree) it gets 45 Shashtiamsas If it is in its sign of Rulership it gets 30 Shashtiamsas, if it is in the sign of a great friend, it gets 22.5 Shashtiamsas, if it is in the sign of a friend it gets 15 Shashtiamsas, in a neutral sign 7.5 , in the sign of an enemy 3.75 Shashtiamsas and in the sign of a great enemy 1.875 Shashtiamsas. 

Ojayyugma Bala - A planet gains strength if it is in an uneven or even sign or navamsa. Uneven is Masculine Signs, Even is Feminine Signs.

Uneven Signs - Aries, Gemini, Leo, Libra, Sagittarius, and Aquarius. 

Even Signs - Taurus, Cancer, Virgo, Scorpio, Capricorn, Pisces  

Moon and Venus get 15 Shashtiamsas if they are in an even sign or navamsa, and 30 Shashtiamsas if they are in an even sign AND navamsa. Masculine and Neutral planets such as Sun, Mars, Jupiter, Mercury and Saturn get 15 Shastiamsas when they are in an uneven sign and get 15 Shashtiamsas when they are in an uneven navamsa.

Kendra Bala - When in a Kendra House (1,4,7, and 10) a planet receives 60 Shastiamsas. When in houses 2,5,8, or 11, 30 Shastiamsas are given. When in houses 3,6,9, or 12, 15 Shastiamsas are given.

Drekkana Bala - When in the first 10 Degrees of whatever sign its in, Masculine and Neutral planets (Sun, Mars, Jupiter, Mercury and Saturn) get 15 Shastiamsas. When in the LAST 10 Degrees of whatever sign its in, Femini Planets (Moon and Venus) get 15 Shastiamsas. Neutral planets are also most potent when in the middle degree of whatever sign its in.

Total Number of Shastiamsas = Your Sthana Bala

Directional Strength (Dig Bala) - The position of the planet in each directional quadrant determines the amount of strength it will have.

The Sun and Mars are most powerful in the South (10th House) Saturn in the West (7th House) Moon and Venus in the North (4th House) Mercury and Jupiter in the East (1st House)

When a planet is in a house OPPOSITE to it's strongest house it receives no Shastiamsas. For Example, Moon and Venus would receive no Shastiamsas in the 10th House as it is opposite the 4th House. If a planet is right at the midpoint of the house it is strongest in, in receives 60 Shastiamsas. For example, lets say your Moon is in the 4th House. If your Moon is sitting directly at the Midpoint of whatever sign is in the 4th House, you receive 60 Shastiamsas. This is only if the planet is in its strongest house. So if the Moon was in the 10th House, it would receive 0 Shastiamsas.

Temporal Strength (Kala Bala) - The planets position depending on the time of day the native was born will determine the amount of strength it will have.

The Moon, Saturn and Mars are powerful during midnight. At noon they are powerless. The Sun, Jupiter and Venus are powerful during noon and are powerless at midnight. Mercury is considered to always be powerful. So the native is granted a maximum of 60 Shashtiamsas. Moon, Saturn and Mars are given 60 Shashtiamsas only if the native is born at midnight and 0 if the native is born at noon. Sun, Jupiter and Venus get 60 Shastiamsas if the native is born at noon and zero if they are born at midnight.

Motional Strength (Chesta Bala) - The planets motion will determine the amount of strength it will have. The Sun and the Moon are not calculated as they do not go Retrograde. Fast moving planets have a low Chesta Bala and slow moving planets have a high Chesta Bala. The maximum amount of Shashtiamsas to be earned is 60.

Permanent Strength (Naisargika Bala) - The luminosity of the planet will determine the amount of strength it has.

The maximum amount of Shashtiamsas to be earned is 68.57 as the Sun is the brightest planet which gives it 60 Shashtiamsas and Saturn is the dullest which gives it 8.57 Shashtiamsas. This is the same for every chart.

Aspect Strength (Drik Bala) The nature of the aspects made to the planets will determine the amount of strength it has. The more spread out your planets are, the higher their Drig Bala will be. The point which is 120 degrees from the planet gets a partial aspect of 50%, the point which is 90 degrees from the planet gets a 75% aspect, the point which is 60 degrees gets a 25% aspect and the point which is 30 or 150 degrees from the planet gets no aspect at all. If a planet is aspected by benefics the planet receives a positive Shashtiamsa value. If a planet is aspected by malefics than it gets negative Drik Bala points.

For example lets say my Planet is The Moon and it is being aspected by Venus at 90 degrees, so it gets a 75% POSITIVE aspect (because Moon and Venus are positive planets) which means my Total Shadbala is 45 (75% of 60 is 45).

Another example, let's say my planet is Venus and is being aspected by Saturn at 120 Degrees. It now receives a partial aspect of 50%. Because Saturn is a malefic, my Drikbala is now NEGATIVE and therefore, 50% of the maximum 60 Shashtiamsas is now being taken away, leaving me with 30 Shashtiamsas.

Finally, you add up ALL of your Shashtiamsas from all 6 Balas to get your Virupas. Next, divide that number by 60 to get your Shadbala in Rupas. Each planet is required to have a certain number of Rupas to be considered "strong". The amount is below;

Frequently Asked Questions:

I get some version of these pretty much every day so I thought I'd make an FAQ:

What is my dominant planet/How do I find it?

If you knew enough about astrology and your birth chart, you would know which planet influenced you the most. Most people acutely feel a combination of at least 2-3 planetary influences most strongly. In reality, every single planet and nakshatra in our chart influences us but we probably aren't self-aware enough/knowledgeable about astrology enough to see how it impacts us. Each planet correlates to a different area of your life. Since Sun represents the soul/outer self and Moon represents the mind/emotions, its safe to say these 2 placements impact every area of life but when it comes to relationships/creativity/beauty, you channel your Venus whether you're aware of it or not and same goes for all other planets. Whenever you do something of a creative bent, you tap into your Ketu, your education is affected by your Mercury and Jupiter, so on and so forth.

If you're very new to vedic astrology or if you haven't been able to figure out your dominant planets, just let it be!! This is not a puzzle to be solved, there is no way for you or somebody else to mechanically calculate your "dominant" planet. I don't know you, I don't know what you look like, what your personality is like, so there is absolutely no way for me to tell what influence comes through most acutely.

Also, the concept of "dominance" itself is pretty much a made up one (thanks Claire Nakti) so literally, just chill out!!! Read about your placements, and learn more about astrology instead of trying to claim planets. You're influenced by your whole chart, its that simple. That's it.

2. Which website should I use?

You can use astro seek.com or the Cosmic Insights app or the Jagannatha Hora app. On astro seek, you have to adjust to "whole sign" instead of Placidus though. On the others, that's the default setting, I think.

3. Which ayanamsa should I use?

I stick to Lahiri

4. I have xyz nak/planet/house, am I doomed/ugly/forever alone/unlucky?

NO

Astrology helps us understand our strengths and weaknesses, there is no placement that comes as a death sentence of some sort. I feel like most people don't understand that your birth chart is supposed to make you self-aware of your natural inclinations, tendencies, patterns etc so that you can work with them/make necessary changes etc. Your chart is NOT set in stone. Human behaviour is far too complex to be narrowed down to a birth chart. It shows your INCLINATIONS, which means that if you're self aware, you can make necessary adjustments to work on unhealthy habits/tendencies.

Astrology is not "this is who you are, you suck",, it's a tool for self-growth.

If you have difficult placements, you need to pay more attention to them and work on those areas. Why on earth would you just accept that everything is fcked and its game over for you bc of what the stars said??? Sorry to be rude but that's dumb af?? You were not put on this earth to be miserable until the day you die, EVERYBODY has difficult placements, if you remain ignorant of it/avoid it, you will continue to live in ignorance and suffer from the same things you always have and not know why.

Astrology makes it possible for you to understand yourself and evolve.

5. I'm not Hindu, can I still worship Gods/Goddesses/chant mantras?

Every single religion is made up. God never said only brown people from the Indian subcontinent can worship me. But that said, do your research and actually be invested in it. I feel like some people approach this in a Buzzfeed-y "Which Disney Princess Am I?😍" type of way which is 🤦🏻‍♀️but religion isn't something to be sampled, if ykwim?

You don't have to attain Guru levels of religious insight/expertise either. Most practicing Hindus probably know very little about their religion and truth be told, Hinduism is soooo vast, expansive, varied and eclectic that people practice it in thousands of different ways across the country with their own unique rituals/customs, so everybody who practices the religion makes it their own, in some ways?

Build an altar if you can, dedicate a certain time of the day and space of your room/house to just prayer. By making something sacred, we feel its divinity permeate our lives. Rituals are a major part of every religion because acting with intention helps us feel like our lives have meaning.

Always chant after you've showered, sit facing east, look at a picture of your deity or visualise them and chant quietly. Most people use prayer beads but you can also just count them on your fingers. Its often said that when you chant, others should not be able to hear you. If you use prayer beads, keep them covered in a box after use. You've energetically charged them with your chanting and its not good to leave them exposed because they'll pick up on other vibrations from the surroundings. Do not chant after you've just eaten!!

Picking a deity is all about intuition. If you don't feel called to anybody, just chill out and keep studying their mythology. You can always chant 'Om'.

I used to chant Buddhist mantras like 'Om mani padme hum' and 'nam myoho renge kyo' and they're not directed to any deity so if you're worried about that, you can always chant non-deity mantras as well.

The purpose of chanting mantras is to keep your mind calm and still. Even if you repeat a certain affirmation in English several hundred times, it has the same effect.

D2 Divisional Chart: Hora Chart

The D2 divisional chart, also known as the Hora chart, is a Vedic astrology tool used to analyze wealth and financial prosperity. This chart is derived by dividing each sign of the zodiac into two equal parts, each ruled by either the Sun or the Moon.

1. Sun and Moon Hora Rulership

The D2 chart is divided into two horas per sign. The first 15 degrees of any sign are ruled by the Sun (Solar Hora), and the second 15 degrees are ruled by the Moon (Lunar Hora). This division reflects the balance of masculine and feminine energies in relation to wealth and prosperity.

2. Wealth and Prosperity Indicators

The placement of planets in the D2 chart provides insight into your financial status and how you attract wealth. Planets in Solar Horas indicate active, assertive means of acquiring wealth, while those in Lunar Horas suggest a more receptive and nurturing approach.

3. Analyzing the Chart

Ascendant and Ascendant Lord: The sign and its lord in the D2 chart's ascendant indicate the primary approach to wealth and financial matters. Planets in Solar Hora: These planets show areas where you might actively seek and earn wealth through initiative, hard work, and leadership. Planets in Lunar Hora: These planets reflect areas where wealth may come through passive means, inheritance, nurturing, and emotional intelligence.

4. Key Planets to Consider

Sun and Moon: The natural rulers of the D2 chart, their positions can reveal the strength and balance of financial energies. Jupiter: The planet of wealth and abundance, its placement can indicate where opportunities for financial growth lie. Venus: Associated with luxury and material comfort, Venus’s position can show areas of potential indulgence and financial gain.

5. Wealth-Building Strategies

By understanding the D2 chart, you can tailor your financial strategies. For example, strong Solar Hora placements might suggest taking bold, entrepreneurial actions, while strong Lunar Hora placements might indicate benefiting from investments, savings, and nurturing existing resources.

6. Practical Applications

Use the D2 chart to guide financial decisions, investments, and career choices. By aligning your actions with the insights from the Hora chart, you can enhance your ability to attract and manage wealth effectively.

7. Balancing Energies

The D2 chart emphasizes the importance of balancing active and passive financial strategies. Embrace both the assertive, action-oriented Solar energy and the receptive, nurturing Lunar energy to create a holistic approach to wealth.

Understanding the D2 Hora chart provides a nuanced view of your financial potential and helps you harness both the active and passive aspects of wealth-building in your life.

.

⚠️ Warning : i consider this asteroid as prominent and brings the most effect if it conjuncts ur personal planets (sun,moon,venus,mercury,mars) and if it conjuncts ur personal points (ac,dc,ic,mc), i use 0 - 2.5 orbs (for conjunctions). For sextile, trine, opposite and square aspects to asteroids i usually use 0 - 2 orbs. Yes tight conjunctions of planet / personal points to asteroids tends to give the most effect, but other aspects (sextile,trine,square,opposite, etc) still exist, even they produce effects. If it doesn't aspect any of your planets or personal points, check the house placement of the asteroid, maybe some stuff/topics relating to this asteroid could affect some topics/stuff relating to the house placement . ⚠️

Some vedic astrology facts:

1. One can use vedic astrology to understand their:

- life purpose,

- basic strengths(as well as hidden/complex ones in the subconscious).

- maintain their relationships in a healthy way by using the correct interpretation of Divisional chats such as D7 and D9.

- earning through self hardwork by interpreting D2(Hora chart).

- career highs/lows as well as check if they got fame in this lifetime by looking at D10 and D5 chart.

- life after marriage (such as what fortune they possess which will only unlock after they get married or have kids with their life partner) which can be seen through the D9 or the Bhagya(Fortune) chart. *One of the most important charts out there*

- Friendships, social circles and networks at job from observing the 11th lord in different divisional charts.

- "MOKSHA". This is only meant for a few who feel like it's their last birth in this planet. Moksha possibility in this lifetime can also be seen from some placements in your Vedic Kundali especially from D60 which carries the past life and present life karmas. But there are other some placements involving 12th and 8th house which determine if one is guaranteed moksha by the Divine in this lifetine.

- and mannyyy more.

2. Vedic Astrology is very powerful and some people out there who haven't read the shastras properly don't know how it works.

- Some even use western techniques on vedic astrology which is totally incorrect. It is better to seek the guidance of a guru when proceeding into learning vedic astrology *for peeps who don't haven't followed the correct manner*

Some other info:

- Since I deal with all types of readings whether related to career, relationships, earning, gains(fortune) & life coaching in general you can contact/Dm me any time and I can let you know further about how I proceed my consulations.

- My readings are very depth oriented which will give you satisfaction at the highest level and I guarantee that💯

The concept of vargas in Jyotish

Vedic astrology is known for the "Varga" concept, also known as a divisional chart (indicated as a "D-chart" with a serial number), which is an essential tool used for detailed analysis and prediction. Vargas are derived from the primary birth chart, known as the Rasi chart or D-1, and provide a deeper understanding of specific aspects of life. Each varga focuses on a particular life area, allowing astrologers to assess various aspects of an individual's life with greater precision.

Below is the list of the most commonly used vargas and their brief explanation

D-2 (Hora): divides each sign into 2 parts and primarily deals with wealth, assets, and financial matters. It provides insights into a person's financial status, assets, and sources of income (coming from family and with own efforts)

D-3 (Drekkana): divides each sign into 3 parts and focuses on siblings, courage, and vitality. It helps in understanding relationships with siblings and potential health issues.

D-4 (Chaturhamsa): splits each sign into 4 parts and describes property, land, and real estate. It helps in understanding property ownership, real estate investments, and ancestral property.

D-5 (Panchamsha): separates each sign into 5 parts and primarily deals with progeny, creativity, and past-life merits. It provides insights into one's children, artistic talents, and potential for creative expression. Additionally, D-5 can indicate the accumulation of merits or demerits from past lives, influencing one's current circumstances and opportunities. This chart is particularly significant for understanding the blessings and challenges related to progeny and creative pursuits.

D-7 (Saptamsha): splits each sign into 7 parts and primarily deals with children, progeny, creativity and relationships. It provides insights into one's children, fertility, creative talents, and spiritual evolution. Also, it speaks about the ways we express ourselves in relationships.

D-9 (Navamsha): the most important varga after the D-1 (Rasi chart). Also known as the chart of marriage and the second part of life, it divides each sign into 9 parts and provides insights into a person's relationships, spiritual inclinations, and overall happiness in marriage.

D-10 (Dashamsha): divides each sign into 10 parts and focuses on career, profession, and status in society. It offers insights into one's professional achievements, career trajectory, and public reputation.

D-12 (Dvadashamsha): divides each sign into 12 parts and focuses on parents, ancestral lineage (heritage), and spiritual growth. It helps in understanding the relationships with parents, the role within a lineage, ancestral blessings, and potential spiritual pursuits.

D-16 (Shodashamsha): diverges each sign into 16 parts and primarily deals with vehicles, comforts, and pleasures. It provides insights into material comforts, luxuries, and enjoyment in life.

D-20 (Vimshamsha): divides each sign into 20 parts and focuses on spiritual pursuits, dharma, and religious inclinations. It helps in understanding one's spiritual path, religious beliefs, and moral values.

D-24 (Chaturvimshamsha): splits each sign into 24 parts and describes learning, education, and knowledge. It provides insights into one's educational pursuits, academic achievements, and intellectual abilities.

D-30 (Trimshamsha): divides each sign into 30 parts and deals with misfortunes, afflictions, and potential sources of suffering. Trimsamsa reflects the karmic imbalances and challenges that an individual may face throughout their life journey. It provides insights into past-life karmic debts, present-life obstacles, and the potential for spiritual growth through overcoming hardships. Trimsamsa is crucial for understanding the deeper karmic patterns and lessons that individuals encounter in their lifetime.
