Ashtakavarga

   Ashtakavarga is a unique and accurate method used for predictions through transits,  in vedic astrology taught by "Sage Parasara". Ashta means eight and varga means division/group. Ashtakavarga uses 7 planets(sun,moon, mars, mercury, jupiter, venus, saturn) and lagna for its calculations and chaaya graha rahu and ketu are omitted. In ashtakavarga calculation each rasi is divided into 8 parts or division. Each division has a span of 3:45'.  The 1st division of each rasi is ruled by saturn, the 2nd division of each rasi is ruled by jupiter, the 3rd division of each rasi is ruled by mars, the 4th division of each rasi is ruled by sun, the 5th division of each rasi is ruled by venus, the 6th division of each rasi is ruled by mercury, the 7th division of each rasi is ruled by moon, the 8th division of each rasi is ruled by the lagna.
     Gochara is just 1/8 of ashtakavarga, thus ashtakavarga predictions are more accurate as it calculates the strength of a planet from every planet and lagna, but not just from moon. If a transiting planet has high points in ashtakavarga and has a weak / bad placement of house from gochara, the native is bestowed with auspicious results according to ashtakavarga points.

       List of points for auspicious and inauspicious results in ashtakavarga charts.
  • Inauspicious or bad if a planet scores 0,1,2,3 points.
  • Average or mixed results are expected if a planet scores 4 points.
  • Auspicious or good results are expected if a planet scores 5,6,7,8 points.
In ashtakavarga of sun, if strong sun scores highest points, then the native will be a great politician or vip.
