Basics of Varshaphala (Annual Horoscopy)

Element Details
Definition Varshaphala = "Varsha" (Year) + "Phala" (Result). It is the annual solar return
chart (birthday to birthday).
Other Name Tajika system (popular in North India, Urdu term).
Foundation Based on Parashari astrology, but evolved in royal courts (Durbars) for quick,
yearly predictions.
Purpose To analyze in detail the events of a specific year in a native’s life using a separate
solar-based chart.
Chart Name Varsha-Kundali (Annual Chart), prepared at Varshapravesha time (Solar Return).

Scope of Prediction Year → Month → Day → Even half-day level precision (with effort and dasha
detail).
Type of Chart Transit-based chart (uses planetary positions at the exact time of Sun’s return to
birth longitude).

Annual forecasting (one year)

Explanation
One Varsha-Kundali = 1 solar year (from one birthday to the next).
Prepared at Solar Return; planets at that time control the year. Must always be read with birth chart.

Tajika uses unique aspects:

▶ Friendly (Mitra): 3, 5, 9, 11 houses
▶ Inimical (Shatru): 1/7 (open), 4/10 (secret)
▶ Neutral: 2, 6, 8, 12

▶ Male: Sun, Mars, Jupiter (strong by day, in masculine signs)

▶ Female: Moon, Mercury, Venus, Saturn (strong by night, in feminine signs)
One of 7 planets (Sun to Saturn) becomes Year Lord (Varshesha). Rules events for the year. Special role
like Lagna Lord.
Specific yearly yogas (different from Parashari ones). Many based on Lagna Lord or Varshesha.

Dhruvanka “1 Day 6 Hours Solar Delay” – D6H pattern
House Cusp “Divide Arc – Add One Third” – Tajika Midpoint Rule
Planetary Positions Always use IST Ephemeris – not GMT
Varshapravesha Time “B+Dx = V” (Birth + Dhruvanka = Varshapravesha)
Time Adjustment IST → LMT (local correction, e.g., Bombay = -4 min)

📘 Time Units in Vedic System (for Varshapravesha)

Vedic Time Unit Subdivisions
1 Day = 60 Ghatikas
1 Ghatika = 60 Palas
1 Pala = 60 Vipalas
Solar Year = 365 d, 6h, 12m, 36s = 1 Dhruvanka
🧠 Memory Trick:
1 Dhruvanka = 365d 6h 12m 36s
(Just remember: 6h 12m 36s gets added every year to previous Varshapravesha time)

🧠 How to Use Dhruvanka in Practice (Steps):
Step Action
1 Note Varshapravesha date/time of any year (e.g., 1994)
2 Add 1 Dhruvanka (i.e., 1d 6h 12m 36s) to it for the next year
3 Keep adding Dhruvanka to get Varshapravesha of subsequent years

4 Adjust time/date accordingly (add hours and minutes precisely)

5 Check date + time = that is the Varshaphala chart start for the year
✅ Example from the Book
Description Value
41st Year
13h 17m 29s

✍️Memorization Strategy:
1. Dhruvanka = 1d 6h 12m 36s → Fixed solar year difference (ancient method).
2. Every completed year → Add one Dhruvanka.
3. Think in steps: Days → Hours → Minutes → Seconds.
4. For longer spans (like 10, 20, 30 years), refer to the ready table.
5. You can create your own table for 60, 70, 100 years by multiplying and adjusting accordingly.

Type Notes
Mudda Dasha Also called Vimshottari-Mudda; most widely
used
Yogini Dasha Nakshatra-based like Vimshottari
Patyayini Dasha Less commonly used in practice
🔶 Mudda Dasha – Key Principles
Step / Aspect Explanation
Basis Nakshatra-based (like Vimshottari), but for one
year only
Initial Calculation (Age in years + Nakshatra no. – 2) ÷ 9
Remainder Determines starting dasha
Order of Planets Sun, Moon, Mars, Rahu, Jupiter, Saturn,
Mercury, Ketu, Venus
Duration in Days Proportional to Vimshottari scale (see next
table)
🔶 Mudda Dasha Planetary Durations
Planet Sun
Days 18
Vimshottari Proportion 6 yrs
🧠 Memory Tip: Multiply Vimshottari years by 3 = Mudda dasha days
🔶 Balance of Dasha at Year Start (Varṣapravēsha)
Step Description
Identify Moon’s exact longitude E.g. Moon at 41°7′ in Magha
Determine portion traversed E.g. Magha ends at 43°20′ → traversed = 3°48 ′

Portion remaining 13°20′ – 3°48′ = 9°32′

Calculate Balance Use: (Remaining° ÷ 13°20′) × Planet’s total days

📌 Example (Rahu):
9°32′ of 13°20′ = 9.53/13.33 = 0.714
Rahu’s total days = 54
Balance = 54 × 0.714 ≈ 38.61 days remaining
📝 Summary of Process
Step Action
11️⃣ Add age + Nakshatra number – 2
2️⃣ Divide by 9; remainder gives starting dasha
3️⃣ Use Vimshottari order for sequence
4️⃣ Use Vimshottari ratio × 3 for duration in days

5️⃣ Calculate balance based on Moon’s position in

nakshatra

🔶 Point-Wise Summary: View of Kalidasa on Mudda Dasha

1. Source & Author:
Kalidasa, author of Uttara Kalamrita, presents an alternative method of calculating Mudda Dasha.
2. Key Difference from Standard Method:
Standard Mudda Dasha uses the Moon's nakshatra at birth.
Kalidasa’s View uses the Moon’s nakshatra in the annual (Varṣapraveśa) chart.
3. Dasha Lord:
The first dasha is ruled by the lord of the Moon's nakshatra in the annual chart.
4. Dasha Duration:
Total duration is spread over 365 days (not 360 as in traditional nakshatra-based dashas).
Aimed at aligning with the solar calendar (1° movement of the Sun per day).
5. Table of Dasha Durations (Kalidasa's System):
Note: Ketu not explicitly included—open for interpretation.
6. Handling of Ketu:
The text raises the question: Should Ketu be considered like Rahu or Mars? This remains open and needs empirical testing.
7. Sub-Periods (Antar Dasha):
Each major period (Mahadasha) begins with its own Antardasha.
Followed by other planets in Vimshottari order.
Duration of sub-periods is proportional to the main period of each planet.
🔶 Tabular Summary: Mudda Dasha (Kalidasa System)
Planet Sun
Duration (Days) 110
🔶 Comparison with Traditional Nakshatra-Based Mudda Dasha
Aspect Traditional Mudda Dasha
Moon's Nakshatra At birth
First Dasha Lord Based on remainder of formula
Total Duration 360 days (nakshatra-based)
Purpose Fixed dasha scheme
Use of Ketu Explicitly listed
🔶 Sub-periods (Antardasha) Structure
Aspect Details
First Antardasha Same as Mahadasha planet
Sequence of Others In Vimshottari order
Proportion Each Antardasha is proportional to its
Vimshottari share

the year

🔶 Comparison Chart: Kalidasa Mudda Dasha vs. Standard Vimshottari-Mudd

Feature Standard Mudda Dasha (Vimshottari-based)

Source of Moon's Nakshatra Birth chart

Starting Dasha Lord Based on remainder from formula (age +
nakshatra no. – 2) ÷ 9
Order of Dasha Lords Sun → Moon → Mars → Rahu → Jupiter →
Saturn → Mercury → Ketu → Venus
Total Year Duration 360 days
Day Mapping Logic Each year = 360 days (1 solar day = 1° of Sun's
movement)
Ketu's Inclusion Included
Use in Practice Most widely used
Sub-Periods (Antardasha) Proportional to Vimshottari ratios
🔶 Worked-Out Example: Age = 40 years, Moon in Poorva Phalguni (No. 11)
✅ (A) Standard Vimshottari-Mudda Dasha
Step 1: Apply formula:
(Age + Nakshatra No. – 2)÷9=40+11−29=499\text{(Age + Nakshatra No. – 2)} \div 9 = \frac{40 + 11 - 2}{9} = \frac{49}{9}
Quotient = 5, Remainder = 4
→ Starting dasha = Rahu (4th in sequence)
Order of Planets:
Rahu → Jupiter → Saturn → Mercury → Ketu → Venus → Sun → Moon → Mars
Duration of Dashas (days) (multiply Vimshottari years × 3):
Rahu = 18×3 = 54 days
Jupiter = 16×3 = 48 days
Saturn = 19×3 = 57 days
... (see Table V-1 from image)
Balance Calculation (if Moon is at 41°7′ in Magha):
Magha ends at 43°20′ → Moon has traversed 3°48 ′
Remaining = 13°20′ - 3°48′ = 9°32′
Proportion left = 9.53/13.33 = 0.714
→ Rahu’s balance = 54 × 0.714 ≈ 38.61 days
→ After that, Jupiter dasha starts.
✅ (B) Kalidasa’s Mudda Dasha
Step 1: Find Moon’s nakshatra in annual chart
→ Suppose Moon is in Pushya, whose lord is Saturn
Starting Dasha = Saturn
Durations as per Kalidasa System:
Planet Sun
Duration (Days) 110
→ Saturn dasha will last only 4 days, then Rahu for 5 days, then Sun for 110 days, etc.
Sub-periods:
Within Saturn’s 4-day Mahadasha, the Antardashas (sub-periods) will be in Vimshottari order and proportioned to Kalidasa's d
e.g., Antardasha of Sun in Saturn MD = (110/365) × 4 ≈ 1.2 days
And so on.

2. Harsha Bala – Simple and based on four factors (explained here).
3. Panchavargiya Bala – Five-fold strength (most popular and frequently used).
THE HARSHA BALA – "Harsha" means joy or happiness
This method considers a planet "strong" if it is happy or comfortable in specific placements. It includes four types of strength:

🔷 Section II: Uchcha Bala (Strength due to Exaltation)

🧠 Core Concept (Simple Definition)
Uchcha Bala is the strength a planet gets based on its distance from the debilitation point in the annual chart.
The closer it is to its exaltation point, the stronger it is (up to 20 units).
The closer it is to its debilitation point, the weaker it is (down to 0 units).
📚 Key Principles (Breakdown)
Concept Details
Exaltation → Debilitation Distance is 180° (i.e., 6 zodiac signs apart)
Total Strength Max: 20 units (at exact exaltation)
Calculation Basis 180° = 20 units → So, 1 unit = 9°
Strength Falls Linearly The farther the planet is from exaltation, the lesser the strength
Zero Strength When exactly at debilitation point (180° away from exaltation)
🧮 Uchcha Bala Calculation – Step-by-Step Guide
Step Explanation
11️⃣ Find longitude of the planet in the annual chart
2️⃣ Find its debilitation point (given below)
3️⃣ Subtract debilitation point from planet's longitude
4️⃣ If not enough rashis (lesser longitude), add 12 rashis to planet’s longitude
5️⃣ Convert result into degrees and minutes
6️⃣ Divide by 9 → This gives the Uchcha Bala in units
📌 Debilitation Points of Planets (Must Memorize)
Planet Debilitated At (Zodiac) Degrees in Zodiac
☉ Sun Libra (Tula) 6°10′
🌙 Moon Scorpio (Vrischika) 3°33′
♂ Mars Cancer (Karka) 3°28′
☿ Mercury Pisces (Meena) 11°15′
♃ Jupiter Capricorn (Makara) 5°09′
♀ Venus Virgo (Kanya) 5°27′
♄ Saturn Aries (Mesha) 0°20′
🧠 Mnemonic Tips:
☉ Sun weak in Libra 🌗
🌙 Moon weak in Scorpio 🦂
♄ Saturn weak in Aries 🐏
Think "PMS-JVS" = Planets: Mercury, Moon, Mars, Sun, Jupiter, Venus, Saturn
✅ Worked Example: Sun's Uchcha Bala
Step Calculation
Sun’s Longitude 4°3′50″ (Leo) = 123°50′
Debilitation Point (☉) 190° (Libra 6°10′)
Can't subtract 190 from 123° → Add 12 rashis = 360°
New Longitude 123°50′ + 360° = 483°50′
Subtract Debilitation 483°50′ − 190° = 293°50′ = 6R 10 ′
Convert to minutes 66°10′ = (66×60) + 10 = 3970′
Divide by 9 3970 ÷ 9 = 441.11 = 7.21 units Uchcha Bala
📊 Final Uchcha Bala (All Planets)
Planet Uchcha Bala (Units) 🔑 Memory Hint

🔶 HUDDA BALA
✅ Quick Summary:
Each sign (30°) is split into 5 Huddas (unequal in size).
Each Hudda is ruled by one of 5 planets: Mars, Mercury, Jupiter, Venus, Saturn.
Sun and Moon do not own any Hudda.
Planet gets Hudda Bala based on friendship with the Hudda lord.

🔷 DREKKANA BALA
✅ Quick Summary:
Each sign = 3 parts of 10° (Drekkanas).
Each Drekkana has a planetary lord (used for strength calculation).
Lords rotate in a fixed sequence starting from Mars for the 1st Drekkana of Aries.
Used only for Panchavargiya Bala (not standard Drekkana chart).
🧩 Drekkana Lords Table (from Table VI-6)
Drekkana Range
Sequence of Lords (Repeats Every 12 Drekkanas)
0°–10° (1st) Mars, Merc, Jup, Ven, Sat, Sun, Moon, Mars, Merc, Jup, Ven, Sat
10°–20° (2nd) Venus, Sat, Sun, Moon, Mars, Merc, Jup, Ven, Sat, Sun, Moon, Mars
20°–30° (3rd) Merc, Jup, Ven, Sat, Sun, Moon, Mars, Merc, Jup, Ven, Sat, Sun
✅ Mnemonic Tip:
The cycle of Drekkana Lords = Mars → Mercury → Jupiter → Venus → Saturn → Sun → Moon and then repeats.
📝 Want a Trick to Remember?
For Hudda Bala:
Only Mars, Mercury, Jupiter, Venus, and Saturn own Huddas.
Signs have irregular divisions, so use a table or software to check.
Remember: Sun & Moon never rule a Hudda.
For Drekkana Bala:
Always start from Mars at 0° Aries.
The lord rotates in the 7-planet order (Mars → Moon).
Count forward through the list for each Drekkana (every 10°).

📘 Section 1: Drekkana Bala (Table VI–7)

🔹 Concept:
Drekkana: 10° divisions of a sign; each sign has 3 Drekkanas.
A planet gets strength depending on its relationship with the lord of the Drekkana it occupies.
🔹 Table Summary:
Planet Drekkana Sign–Part Drekkana Lord
Sun Leo – 1st Saturn
Moon Taurus – 1st Mercury
Mars Scorpio – 1st Mars
Mercury Leo – 2nd Jupiter
Jupiter Sagittarius – 1st Mercury
Venus Leo – 3rd Mars
Saturn Libra – 2nd Saturn
📘 Section 2: Navamsha Chart (Table VI–8)
🔹 Concept:
Divides each Rashi (30°) into 9 parts (3°20’ each).
Each division is ruled by a sign (Navamsha sign).
This helps determine the Navamsha lord of any planet based on its degree placement.
🔹 Table Usage:
Use degree of a planet (say 10° Scorpio) → Locate under Sign 8, check the 4th division (as 10° falls in 10°00 ′–13°20 ′ range) →
📘 Section 3: Navamsha Bala (Table VI–9)

Sun, Mars, Mercury, Jupiter: Poornabali (Strong)
Moon, Venus: Madhyabali (Medium strength)
No planet is Alpabali (Weak)
📘 Notes and Key Learnings:
Drekkana and Navamsha strength depend heavily on the relation with the sub-lords.
The Panchavargiya Bala is one of the most comprehensive ways to evaluate planetary strength in Tajika or annual charts.
Decimal V.B. is preferred for clarity and ranking strength.
Venus is the weakest in this example, while Saturn is the strongest.

Moon is strong + aspects Lagna
Moon forms Ithasala with stronger planet
Moon just passed stronger planet → No longer forming Ithasala
Moon is not strongest but rules 4th/7th/10th house and is well-placed
None of the office-bearers qualify and Moon is dignified in the chart
Varsha Lagna = Cancer + Moon placed in Lagna + strongest planet
Moon = strongest + aspects Lagna + Varshapravesha at night + Moon is
🧾 ADDITIONAL NOTES FROM TEXT
Ithasala between natural benefics is not valid for Moon to qualify.
If no planet aspects Lagna and no Ithasala → consider Venus as Varshesha if in 7th and with Muntha Lord (as seen here).

 RA – CONCEPT SUMMARY
Details
"Tri" = Three; "Pataki" = Flag → "Three-Flag Chart"
Annual chart to assess influences and vedhas (piercings) of planets in relation to the Ascendant or Moon
Not a traditional horoscope, but a geometrical grid (3x3 lines intersecting to form 12 points – like flags)
Each planet moves 1 sign per year from birth position
Evaluating which planets cause Vedha (obstruction/influence) to the main point (Ascendant or Moon) in the current year
Broad overview of yearly influences or dominating events
RA STRUCTURE
Explanation
3 vertical lines intersected by 3 horizontal lines
12 intersection points labeled ‘a’ to ‘l’
Ascendant of current year at point ‘a’, others marked anti-clockwise (b, c, d...l)
12 zodiac signs are placed from ‘a’ to ‘l’ in anti-clockwise direction
The 12 points act as reference positions for locating planets and checking vedhas
T & RULES
Explanation
Means “piercing” – influence caused by planets on specific points
For each point, there are 3 other points connected via straight lines. Planets on these opposite ends cause vedha to that poin
For point ‘a’, planets at d, g, j cause vedha
Vedha is caused by converging 3 lines from outer points to a center point
ULES TO LOCATE PLANETS
Divide By

Meaning
Moon – Divide by 9
Sun, Mercury, Venus, Jupiter, Saturn – Divide by 4
Mars, Rahu, Ketu – Divide by 6 (reverse count)
Moon → 9th sign; SMVJS → 4th sign; MRK → Same sign
LATIONS (AGE = 41 YEARS)
Step
41 ÷ 9 = 4R5
41 ÷ 4 = 10R1
41 ÷ 6 = 6R5
I-PATAKI CHAKRA FLOW
Action
Draw grid with 3 vertical and 3 horizontal lines → 12 points (a to l)
Place current year's Ascendant on point 'a'
Fill remaining signs anti-clockwise on b, c, ..., l
 Use division rules above to find planet positions
For each planet, place it at respective point based on count
Check if that point receives vedha from any other planets as per triangle lines

Insight
Can be taken from Moon or Ascendant of current year
Each planet moves one sign per year from birth
Helps predict major influence of the year by identifying which sign (point) is strongly "pierced" by planets

Benefics mitigate harm
Planets associated with the 11th lord or yoga linked to 11th house have enhanced fruitfulness
Benefic/malefic influence shows if spending is on virtuous (benefic) or undesirable (malefic) pursuits
Malefic planets cause serious afflictions; benefics reduce severity

Chapter X: The Yogas — Tajika System of Annual Hor
Introduction
Tajika system defines 16 specific yogas (planetary configurations) relevant to annual (Varshaphala) and Horary charts.
These yogas form due to specific planet placements and Tajika aspects, with unique orbs of influence.
Unlike Parashari system, Tajika yogas:
Do not include Rahu and Ketu in their formations.
Are mainly for annual and horary charts, not natal charts.
Names of these yogas often have Persian or Arabic origins, preserved in Sanskrit texts.
Key Points on Interpretation
Tajika yogas should be interpreted boldly and contextually to keep astrology relevant.
They serve as guidelines; accuracy depends on the skill and experience of the astrologer.
Multiple yogas may be present in one annual chart; a balanced analysis is necessary.
Birth chart analysis combined with annual chart and running dashas (planetary periods) is essential for accurate predic

How to Use Lagnesha and Karyesha in Interpretation
Scenario Explanation
Lagnesha + 5th Lord (Karyesha) Event related to children/progeny.
Lagnesha + 7th Lord Event related to spouse/marriage.
Lord of any house as Lagnesha Any house may act as a 'lagna' for focused analysis. For example, 5th lord + 12th lord
7th Lord + 11th Lord Gains from spouse or business partners.
Planet natural significations Involvement of planets like Moon (mother), Mars (brother) in yogas adds nuance.
Factors to Consider in Yoga Interpretation
1. House lordships — Which houses do the planets govern?
2. Natural significations — What does the planet naturally signify?
3. House placement — Where are the yoga-forming planets located?
4. Aspects/associations — What planetary influences affect these planets?
5. Planetary strength — Are these planets exalted, debilitated, combust, retrograde, etc.?

Application Primarily in annual and horary charts, not natal charts.
Interpretation Style Requires bold, contextual reading, not just literal text.
Lagnesha (Ascendant Lord) Represents the individual; its involvement in yogas triggers events for the native.
Karyesha (Significator) Represents the theme of the event, via house lordship (e.g., progeny, spouse).
Relationship Dynamics Yogas formed by interaction (aspect, conjunction) between Lagnesha and Karyesha.
Extended Usage Any house lord can act as Lagnesha for focused predictions on that house.

🔹 A. Definition (Memorization Ready)
Term Meaning
Yamaya Yoga A yoga where the Lagnesha and Karyesha do not aspect each other, but a slow plan
🔹 B. Conditions for Formation (All Must Apply)
Step Requirement
1️⃣ No direct aspect or Ithasala between Lagnesha and Karyesha
2️⃣ A slower-moving planet than both (e.g. Saturn, Jupiter, Mars) must form: – Ithasala w
3️⃣ That slower planet acts as a link, bridging the gap

Area Effect
General Promise is fulfilled, but with delay or effort
Source Success is not self-driven; requires outside help or mediation
Nature Intermediary brings the result; especially if intervening planet is strong
🔹 E. Flowchart to Detect Yamaya Yoga
1. ❓ Are Lagnesha and Karyesha not aspecting or in Ithasala?
2. ✅ Is there a slower planet between them (e.g., Saturn)?
3. 🔗 Does that planet form Ithasala with both from within Deeptamsha?
4. 🎯 If yes → Yamaya Yoga confirmed → Success via external help.
📘 Example 1: Chart X-13 (April 10, 1977)
Factor Observation
Lagnesha Jupiter in 3rd house
7th Lord (Karyesha) Mercury in 2nd house
No Link Between Them No aspect / no Ithasala between Jupiter & Mercury
Intervening Planet Saturn (retrograde) in 5th house
Saturn’s Role Forms: – Poorna Ithasala with Mercury– Vartamana Ithasala with Jupiter
Result Marriage occurred via elder sibling (11th lord) and husband's maternal aunt (12th lord)
Bonus Note Jupiter (putra karaka) in Ithasala with 11th lord → conception occurred post-marriage
Tragedy Mars in 12th formed Ithasala with 5th & 7th lords → pregnancy terminated
✅ Yamaya Yoga works, but with delay and difficulty.
📘 Example 2: Chart X-14 (July 7, 1992)
Factor Observation
Lagnesha Saturn (retrograde) in Lagna (Capricorn)
4th Lord Mars
7th Lord Moon
Link Between Mars & Moon No direct Ithasala between them – they're in 6/8 relationship
Saturn’s Role Saturn is retrograde, placed in between and aspects both Mars and Moon
Mars & Moon Both within Deeptamsha of Saturn (9°)
Result Poorn Ithasala with Mars, Ishraafa with Moon → Yamaya Yoga formed
Meaning Native trying to unite two indifferent areas (4th & 7th house) via own effort
Difficulty Uphill task due to Saturn's slow pace
Yamaya Yoga is present, but outcome is delayed, effortful.
🔍 Special Note – About Saturn’s Position
In Chart X-14, Saturn is the linking planet but also the Lagnesha.
This is acceptable, but Saturn must be slower than both Mars and Moon (which it is).
Shows native must self-mediate between home & marriage – a tiring experience.

🌑 VII. MANAU YOGA – "Ithasala at Naught"
One of the most dangerous yogas in Tajika — it destroys the potential of a good Ithasala yoga.
🔹 A. Definition (Simple & Precise)
Term Meaning
Manau Yoga A yoga that destroys the positive effect of an Ithasala yoga due to malefic interferen
Literal Meaning "Ithasala at Naught" – i.e., turned to zero.
🔹 B. Formation Conditions (All Must Be Satisfied)
Step Condition
1️⃣ There is an Ithasala between Lagnesha and Karyesha
2️⃣ Either Mars or Saturn is: – Conjunct with, OR– Inimically aspects the faster planet a
3️⃣ The malefic (Mars/Saturn) is within its Deeptamsha range from that faster planet
🔹 C. Deeptamsha (For Malefics – VERY IMPORTANT)
If Mars/Saturn is beyond this degree range from the afflicted planet, Manau Yoga does not apply.
Planet Deeptamsha Range
Mars 5° forward or backward
Saturn 9° forward or backward
🔹 D. Results of Manau Yoga
Area Affected Negative Effects
Career/Projects Failure despite efforts
Finance Loss of wealth, mounting debts
Enemies Threat from enemies, backstabbers
Mind Anxiety, quarrels, loss of mental peace
Family/Children Even if Ithasala with 5th lord, leads to disappointment from children
🔹 E. Logical Flowchart for Detection
Use this checklist when analyzing a chart:
1. ❓ Is there an Ithasala between Lagna lord & Karya lord?
2. ✅ Identify which planet is faster (lower degree in same sign / closer to Sun).
3. 🚨 Check if Mars or Saturn is:
Conjunct OR
Inimically aspecting (7th/10th/4th) that faster planet
4. 📏 Is that malefic within its Deeptamsha of the faster planet?
5. 🔴 If yes → Manau Yoga confirmed → Result of Ithasala is nullified.
🔹 F. Cautions and Exceptions
Situation Rule
Mars/Saturn = Lagnesha or Karyesha ❗Do not blindly apply Manau — case-specific judgment needed
Saturn’s friendly aspect (like in Chart X-✅ Manau does not apply if the aspect is not inimical
Malefic is outside Deeptamsha ❌ No Manau Yoga – affliction not close enough
🔹 G. Example Breakdown – Chart X-1 (Book Reference)
Parameter Observation
Lagnesha Mars
Karyesha Sun (10th lord)
Ithasala Between Mars and Sun – both strong
Malefic Aspect Saturn aspects Sun
Saturn’s Role Friendly aspect, not in Deeptamsha → ❌ No Manau

🔹 H. Manau Yoga vs Ithasala vs Kamboola – Master Comparison
Factor Ithasala
Purpose Link between Lagna/Karya lord
Moon's Role Not involved
Malefics Involved Not needed
Affliction Condition None
Result Fulfillment of goal (if strong)
📌 Final Memory Tricks (Mnemonics)
Mnemonic Helps You Remember…
“M&M Kill Fast” Mars & Saturn kill the faster planet in Ithasala
“Deepta Dagger” Affliction must be within Deeptamsha
“Zero-Sala” Manau = Ithasala reduced to zero
“Check Speed, Then Burn” Always find the faster planet first, then test for affliction.

💡 Key Interpretive Logic
Factor Interpretation
Moon = Catalyst Though Moon is weak/unqualified, it acts like a trigger after sign change
Ithasala with strong Saturn Ensures external support or powerful intervention
Lagnesha-Karyesha Ithasala Shows that native’s intentions and goals are aligned
Without Moon’s intervention Lagnesha-Karyesha alone might not fructify result
Strength of Saturn Being in own sign = capable intervening helper
🧠 Memory Aid – Gairi-Kamboola Yoga
Clue Meaning
Gairi = external Yoga requires outside intervention to fructify
Moon at 29° Wait for Moon to switch sign and activate the yoga
Needs strong planet Only a powerful helper (like Saturn here) can trigger success

Confirm valid linkage via Tajika rules

How to Use / Memorize:
Formula Pattern: Most Sahams are in the form a - b + c where:
a, b, c = planets or house midpoints
Remember "Subtract b from a, then add c"
Check if c lies between a and b in zodiac order; if not, add 30° (one sign)
Day/Night Differences: Daytime usually means Sun > Moon; Nighttime reverses the order (Sun & Moon swap in formula).
Planet Associations:
Jupiter = Fame, siblings, wisdom
Venus = Love, friends, mother
Saturn = Strife, father, death, karma
Mars = Energy, profession, capability
Mercury = Profession, relatives, trade
Moon = Emotions, mother, progeny
Sun = Authority, father, dignity
Remember Clusters:
Punya, Guru, Vidya Sahams = Auspiciousness, teacher, knowledge (interlinked)
Yasha, Mitra, Mahatmya Sahams = Fame, friends, virtuous rewards
Roga, Mrityu, Shatru Sahams = Health, death, enemies (negative Sahams)
Vivaha, Putra Sahams = Marriage, children
Strength Rules (Simple):
Strong Saham If: Weak Saham If:
Saham lord exalted or in own house or friendly Saham lord debilitated or weak by Panchavargiya/Harsha Bala
Saham linked to benefic planets or year lord Associated with malefics or natural enemies
Saham lord aspects/conjoins Saham or ascenda No aspect or conjunction with Saham
Saham NOT in 6th, 8th, or 12th house Saham in 6th, 8th, or 12th house (generally bad)
Special:
Negative Sahams like Shatru (enemy), Roga (disease), Mrityu (death) are better weak or debilitated.
Punya Saham (Most Important Saham)
Indicates overall luck, success, wealth, virtue.
Strong Punya = good year, weak or afflicted Punya = challenges.
Location in bad houses (6th, 8th, 12th) reduces benefits.
Association dominates over aspect when timing results.

House Key Themes & Indicators

1st House (Lagna) Self, body, personality, health, vitality, life path
2nd House Wealth, family, speech, food, possessions, early education
3rd House Courage, siblings, communication, short journeys
4th House Home, mother, comforts, vehicles, emotional security

12th House Losses, expenditure, foreign lands, isolation, spirituality
Tips for Memorization:
Focus on key karakas for each house (like Jupiter for 5th, Venus for 7th, Mars for 3rd, etc.).
Remember benefic planets (Jupiter, Venus, Moon exalted) usually give positive results in any house.
Malefic planets (Saturn, Mars, Rahu, Ketu) tend to create difficulties or afflictions when placed weakly or afflicted.
Ithasala (planetary aspect or conjunction) with Lagna lord or Year lord generally improves house results.
Use examples like conjunctions, retrogrades, and combustions to recall typical afflictions or blessings.
Relate houses to everyday life areas: self (1st), family/wealth (2nd), siblings/courage (3rd), home/mother (4th), children/crea

Topic Explanation
Definition of Maasa Pravesha The moment each month when the Sun reaches the same exact degree,
minutes, and seconds of longitude as at birth, but in a new zodiac sign.
This happens 12 times a year, one per sign, starting from the
Varshapravesha (annual solar return).

Varshapravesha The first Maasa Pravesha of the year, when the Sun reaches the exact
natal longitude on the birth sign—marks the native's solar new year.

Purpose of Maasa Kundali A horoscope cast at the Maasa Pravesha moment is called the Maasa
Kundali or monthly chart; used to refine the timing of events in a
particular month. Usually prepared only in special cases due to
calculation complexity.

Calculation: Step 1 Note the Sun's exact natal longitude (sign, degrees, minutes, seconds).

Calculation: Step 2 Add 1 sign for each month ahead from birth to find the Sun's expected
longitude at the Maasa Pravesha of that month.
Calculation: Step 3 Using an ephemeris, find the exact date and time when the Sun attains
this longitude in the given year and month.
Worked Example (Rajiv Gandhi) Natal Sun = Leo 3°49'4". In May 1991, Sun is in Taurus. Find date/time
when Sun reaches Taurus 3°49'4".Ephemeris data:– May 19, 5:30 AM:
Taurus 3°47'57"– May 20, 5:30 AM: Taurus 4°45'43"Calculate time by
interpolation.

Ascendant for Maasa Kundali Calculate the ascendant (lagna) for the Maasa Pravesha moment using
location and local mean time. In example: 17°24'29" Leo.
Planetary Positions Calculate planetary longitudes at Maasa Pravesha moment similarly,
using ephemeris.
Muntha in Monthly Chart Muntha is the progressed lagna, starting at birth lagna, progressing 2°30'
per month (1 sign/year). For monthly charts, add 2°30' per completed
month since Varshapravesha to Muntha’s position in annual chart.

Example of Muntha Progression For 47th year (Aug 1990 to May 1991 = 9 months), Muntha progresses:9
× 2°30' = 22°30'Add to Gemini 14°36' (annual chart Muntha) = Cancer
7°06'.

Alternative Calculation Method Instead of recalculating from scratch each year:1. Tabulate Maasa
Pravesha times for first 12 months of life.2. Add the Dhruvanka (time the
Sun takes to reach natal longitude after 1 year) multiplied by years
passed.

Dhruvanka Example (May 1991) May 1945 Maasa Pravesha: 5d 11h 9m 45sDhruvanka for 46 completed
years: 1d 19h 1m 27sSum = 7d 6h 11m 12s, approximates May 19, 1991
Maasa Pravesha.

Comparison of Methods Ephemeris method is more accurate but more work;Dhruvanka method
is quicker but less precise; time variations cause minor ascendant
differences.
Maasesha (Lord of the Month) Six office-bearers in monthly chart:1. Lagna Lord (birth chart)2. Lagna
Lord (annual chart)3. Muntha Lord4. Tri-rashi-pati (Lord of three signs)5.
Dina-Ratri-pati (Lord of day/night)6. Lagna Lord (monthly chart)

Lord of the Month Determination Use Pancha-vargiya Bala (5-fold strength) and same principles as for year
lord to decide who is lord of month.
Monthly Chart Analysis Analyze Maasa Kundali same as annual chart using Tajika yogas, Sahams,
houses, aspects; interpret alongside birth and annual charts.

Scope of Monthly Chart Results apply only to that specific month; narrow timing window.

Dina Pravesha (Daily Return) Sun’s daily movement is ~1°; when Sun reaches natal longitude + n
degrees (n = days passed), that moment is Dina Pravesha (daily solar
return).

Dina Kundali (Daily Chart) Cast chart at Dina Pravesha time for highly precise daily prediction;
seldom used due to workload.
Summary of Key Formulas and Concepts:
Concept Formula / Rule
Maasa Pravesha Longitude Natal Sun Longitude + (number of months passed × 1 sign)
Muntha Monthly Progression Muntha Annual Longitude + (2°30' × completed months since Varshapravesha)
Dhruvanka Method Maasa Pravesha (1st year) + (Dhruvanka × number of completed years)
Number of Maasa Praveshas 12 per year (one per zodiac sign)
Number of Dina Praveshas 360 per year (one per degree of the zodiac)
 Detailed Explanation
From Atharva Veda – asks where months, half-months, seasons go and who is their support. Answer: the Sun.
Parāśara states Sun is as important as Lagna and Moon (Sudarshana Chakra). Sun’s return = time unit
Occurs when Sun reaches exact natal longitude (sign, degrees, minutes, seconds) – marks start of native's solar year
Every ~30 days, Sun enters a new sign and again reaches the same natal longitude → Maasa Praveśa
Horoscope cast at exact Maasa Praveśa time = Monthly Chart
Useful for narrowing event timing within the year; not used always due to calculation effort
1. Note natal Sun’s longitude2. Add 1 sign for next month3. Use ephemeris to find when Sun attains this longitude in the new
Sun’s natal longitude = Leo 3°49'4"In May, Sun will be in Taurus → find when Taurus Sun = 3°49'4"
May 19, 1991 – Sun = 3°47'57"May 20 – Sun = 4°45'43"To reach 3°49'4" = 17" more neededDaily motion = 57'46" → time take
Convert IST to Local Mean Time (LMT) based on birthplace – Bombay in this case

Ephemeris = more accurateDhruvanka = slightly approximate (midpoint of Ascendant may vary)

Strongest among the six is made the Maasesha (Lord of Month)
Analyze Maasa Kundali same way as Varsha Kundali: houses, yogas, Sahams, transits
Maasa Kundali’s results apply only to 1 month
Daily return of the SunSun moves ~1°/day → each degree return = new Dina Praveśa
Chart cast for daily solar returnCan be cast for each day (~360/year)
For ultra-precise timing (e.g., medical, travel, critical events)
Monthly charts are helpful but must be carefully used in context of annual and birth chart
