 KP

provides an accurate interpretation of a

Natal or Birth Chart
Timing of the event is based on Vimsottari
Dasa system. DBA opens a window of few
days to few months.
Transit of Dasa Lord, Bhukti Lord and
Luminaries help in narrowing down on the
event period
Ruling Planets confirms the event to day and
hour/minute

 Though

accurate birth chart interpretation is

possible, people are interested to know how
the current year will be in general and if any
special events in that year will take place
Some expect promotion, new business,
increase in business income, expectation of
marriage in the year, son is completing
education prospects of his job etc.

 Varshaphal

is very popular in North India

Many publications on Varshaphal for a new
year based on your birth date and moon sign
is available
Predictions based only on Sun sign and moon
sign for a given year are very generic
Equally popular in Western countries

 Definition:

A horoscope is erected for the

moment when SUN during its course comes
back to its original degree, minutes and
seconds of the zodiac where it was at the
time of birth of a native
It is also called as Solar Returns or
Progressed Chart
Why Sun?

Sun completes its cycle in exactly one year

 Change

the time in hour, min and sec to alter

the Sun position in this annual chart
If we are not getting the Sun longitude equal
to the natal Sun position then change the
date to the next day or earlier day as the
case may be. In case of last date of month,
you may have to change the month as well
If the Sun position is exactly the same as that
of natal Sun then save the chart as Annual
Horoscope for Mr. X for the Year YYYY.
Note the new date and time

person might have been born at one place

and migrated to another place , or
temporarily he is in another country for a job
then which place to be taken for casting of
Annual horoscope?

Birth Place or New place of residence?

We

have to take the New Place and NOT the

birth place for casting Annual Horoscope

 Two

Methods

Western Method of Interpretation

Tajik System by Kalidasa

 Compare

Natal Chart with the Annual Chart.

Beneficial aspects between those in the
radical chart and in the annual horoscope
promise fortune in that year.
Position of Sun and Moon are considered to
be vital. If either of them in Kendra i.e. 1, 4,
7, 10 and if they form good aspects with
each other then the year is fortunate one

 If

majority of the planets are deposited in

angles then also the year is a very good year
If Jup or Ven or lord of 2 , 10, 11 are in 10th
and get beneficial aspects from sun or moon
, it promises prosperity in that year
If Lagna is occupied with Saturn , Mars,
Rahu, Ketu, Ura,Net then the year is of
difficulty , dispute, disease ,debt etc.

evil planets occupy 6th and also form evil

aspect to lagna then one will suffer in health
and finance
Sun and moon if conjoined with benefics
both by nature and lordship the year is
pleasant
Moon afflicted with malefics the year is bad
Moon and mer or Ura in Lagna then the
native will make frequent travels
If

Moon Mer or Ura in 12th along with the lord

of 2 or 10 then the change in profession is
promised
Saturn in Lagna , chronic disease will flare up
in that year
Lord of Lagna in 7th Chance of marriage or
reunion if already married
If

 Lord

of 2 in lagna , 10 or 11 shows peace,

pleasure and prosperity
Lord of 5 in lagna , 10 or 11 and good aspect
from 2, 6, 11 one is fortunate, unexpected
advantage will accrue
Lord of 8 in lagna or 6 difficulty and danger
Lord of lagna in 6 or 8 and afflicted dangerous

in 7th house the year is adverse

Moon or lord of 12 in 9th Long journey ,
overseas, life in new place
If evil planets with mer owning 12th ,
afflicted and occupies 7th , one will lose by
transaction , theft or cheating
Lagna

 Every

result of ones life is indicated by at

least a house and a planet
Hence Luminaries wither conjoin, square or
oppose a planet by transit in the annual
chart year , one will face with difficulties
Sun, Moon , Significator of the desired houses
form beneficial aspect with the house or the
lord of those houses then the desire will be
fulfilled

 Period

of Transit in Annul Horoscope is from

Sun coming to the same Deg, Min , Sec in the
desired Annul chart year till the Sun again
comes to Deg, Min and Sec next year
Hence for prediction find out the transit of
luminaries and major planets within this
period

 Kalidas

in Uttara Kalamitra has given this

system. This is different from Udu Dasa
In this system- total time is one year
Cycle is not Ketu Venus Sun which we are
familiar
It is Sun, Moon, Mars, Mer, Jup, Ven, Sat,
Rah, Ascendant

 Sun

110 Days
Mon- 60 Days
Mars -32 Days
Mer- 40 Days
Jup 45 Days
Ven- 56 Days
Sat 4 days
Rah- 5 days
Ascendant- 10 Days

 Find

out Moon is in which star in Annul

Horoscope
Dasa does not start with this Starlod
Find the natal star, count it as one
Go on counting till you reach the current star
in which the moon is
Divide by 9 , note the remainder
If remainder is 1 then Sun dasa, 2 moon etc.

 Take

the moon deg, min. How much is to be

covered in the running star of Annual
horoscope
Remaining deg, min divide by 13 deg 20 min
and multiply by running Tajik Dasa period.
This will give the remaining period in the
running Tajik Dasa
Thereafter next dasa will follow

 Continue

till all dasas are exhausted

Show the last dasa as the remaining portion
of the first dasa with which we started

 Compare
