How to Read this Reading
Planets, signs and houses are relatively simple symbols on their own, but
become very complex due to the sheer number of their combinations,
which must be considered holistically and simultaneously. To avoid getting
sunk in a bewildering soup of symbolic quicksand, always follow these two
golden rules: Context & Resonance.
I've organized the presentation so it starts with the more fundamental and
prominent things and works downward from there. So, just remember to
understand the interpretations of later things in ways that are relevant to
the earlier interpretations, and you'll be able to sort out the tangential
from the essential.
This report has two major sections. The first describes the nakṣatra, signs,
and yogas which set up the foundation for interpreting your planets. The
second section reveals specific interpretations, by examining each of your
planets in context of the background foundations.
When you read a given interpretation in this report, always ask, "What does this have in common or
in direct contrast with the things I've already heard?" If the answer is "Not much", the topic will
likely prove tangential. Set it aside for now. When you read something that does have a lot in common
with what you've already read in the report, you're exploring a main pillar of the chart, crucial to
understanding the main aspects of yourself and your life. Focus on it.
"Clashes" happen when the same basic theme arises, but with opposite specifics (one interpretation
says "very rich" another says "very poor"). These point towards parts of your life where there is
complexity, confusion, conflict, and challenge.
"Synergies" happen when the same theme arises with complimentary specifics (both interpretations
says "very rich"). These point to clear and consistent aspects of your life, and are thus more likely to
be positive and fortunate.
Apply these principles patiently, and you will definitely get very clear, accurate meta-interpretations
from all the puzzle pieces I will present here.
Nakṣatra - The Vedic Stars
Nakṣatra are stars. They are much deeper in space than the signs ("rāśī"), and are the foundation of
the truly ancient Vedic science of astrology ("jyotiṣa"). Here is a version of your chart that highlights
the positions of the planets relative to the nakṣatra at the moment you were born.
The Nakṣatra rising in the east (Śravaṇa) and the Nakṣatra housing the Moon (Ārdrā) are
particularly important. I'll begin forming an image of your chart's background context by looking at
these two nakṣatra.
Q श्रवण Ascendant Nakṣatra: Śravaṇa
Śravaṇa:
The Listener
Symbol:
Three footprints; an ear
Type:

Divinity:
Viṣṇu - god of existence
Keywords:
Sound, listening, learning
Śravaṇa is an excellent star for moving things back and forth, especially moving
information. Thus it signifies intelligence and education, and has a special affinity for
sound, hearing, and words. Śravaṇa inspires us to learn, ask intelligent questions,
listen carefully to answers, and seek qualified teachers. It is one of the few stars that
pleasantly turns us towards spiritual enlightenment.

The "navāṁśa" are subsections within zodiac signs. By
dividing the signs into smaller sections, they refine and
clarify what the sign signifies at specific degrees within it.
Your ascendant is at 4º k - which puts it in the Scorpio
subsection (navāṁśa) of Aquarius.
It is strong for its ability to drill passionately into the deepest depths of things, but weak in
cooperation and sympathy.
Here is a diagram that more thoroughly details the essential topics symbolized by Aquarius.

To continue refining the background foundation
of your chart, we'll first overview the prominence
and positivity of all your planets.

The taller the bar, the more important the planet. Mars has the tallest bar because it is your most
important planet. Other important planets in your chart are: Jupiter, Moon, and Rahu in that
order.The interpretations we make for these planets will define the main and most tangible themes of
your life. Ketu is the least prominent planet in your chart, so its interpretation is also important, and
can show what lacks from your life.
The greener the bar, the more positive the planet. A number in each bar gives the exact value. For
example your most positive planet, Moon, has 71% positivity and your least positive planet, Mercury,
has 47% positivity. (50% is average - neither positive nor negative. 30% is about the most negative
planets get, and 70% is about the most positive) The more positive the planet, the more we bring out
positive ramifications when interpreting it, and visa versa.
59%
This bar gives us a good general impression about how to interpret your chart overall. The higher the
score reaches above 50%, the less we should interpret anything in your chart to cause you serious
problems (and visa versa).
Basic Yogas
Now let's look for some of the classic "yogas" of
Vedic Astrology which are intended for getting a
basic overview of the general potentials and
scope of the chart overall.
Balance of Nakṣatra Types
The 27 nakṣatra are categorized into 6 groups: mobile, quick, sweet, enduring, strong and bitter. Here
is a graph showing the prominence of each type in you.
Mobile
Quick
Sweet
Enduring
Strong
Bitter
Sweet Tender, sensitive, and beautiful. Beautiful and good in romance and love.
Strong Strength, power, and bravery. Good at defending, conquering and punishing.
Fire
Earth
Air
Water
Cardinal
Fixed
Dual
Dual is Deficient
The dual mode does two things at the same time, without fully committing to either.
This suggests lack of ability to multi-task effectively; and lack of exploration of alternative goals or
ways of accomplishing goals.
Be sure to look at the bars above. The further they extend to the left or right, the
more pronounced the effects noted.

The Sun expressing its identity through Mercury suggests timidity, resulting from the effort
to be liked and heard by others. This generates a self-negating tendency which can be
modest in the right contexts, but in adverse contexts manifests as low self-confidence and
poor self-esteem.

on the most prominent of them, because the more
prominent the planet, the more its
interpretations set the tone that other
interpretations must work with.

Mars symbolizes पुरुषस्वभाव (puruṣa-svabhāva) -
something we generally refer to in English as
"masculinity."

Viśākhā:
The Coupled
Symbol:
A goal
Type:
General
Divinity:
Indrānī - goddess of
paradise
Keywords:
Decisive, dedicated, fixated, goal-oriented, undistracted
Viśākhā grants the ability to stay on course and to focus sharply on attaining goals. It
creates strong dedication to clear objectives and fosters the ability to achieve those
goals by any means necessary.
To intuit the specific effect of Mars in Viśākhā just envision how the symbols of Mars might
unfold amidst the conditions found in Viśākhā. For example, Mars in Viśākhā
depicts very strong determination, willpower, and self-discipline;
decesive dedication to objectives and goals, with formidible power and
strength to stay on track until the goal is achieved.
Signs
"Planets" are the lights in the sky that move independently. The 12 signs of the Zodiac are twelve
regions of the space they move through (The 27 Nakṣatras are similarly regions of deeper space). We
interpret a planet's placement in any sign by allowing the symbolism of that sign to interact with the
symbolism of that planet. Your Mars is in Scorpio, so let's explore the implications of that now.
E ➾ h — Mars in Scorpio
Scorpio:
It is strong for its ability to drill passionately into the deepest depths of
things, but weak in cooperation and sympathy.
Mars in Scorpio:
An astrological "aspect" is how planets "glance" and thus affect things they are not physically near in
the chart. A conjunction is how planets affect things the are physically near. Here is a graph of the
most important aspects and conjunctions to Mars, with percentages showing their relative
prominence. To simplify and help us focus I have omitted minor aspects and conjunctions that fall
below a certain threshold of prominence. The higher the percentage, the more significant the effect of
the influence.
Fully interpreting these influences involves many factors, including the house from which the
influences come, the houses owned by the influencer, etc. Nonetheless, we can get a great deal of
information simply by considering how the inherent symbolism of the influencer combines with the
inherent symbolism of Mars, which I will explain for you here:
Saturn ➾ Mars:
100%
Jupiter ➾ Mars:
78%
The group-oriented nature of Saturn clashes with the independent nature of Mars,
suggesting relationship difficulties, stemming from unnecessarily
independent tendencies.
The humble nature of Saturn clashes with the ambitious nature of Mars,
suggesting a pessimistic, critical outlook, "everything is useless;"
lowering or abandoning ambitions due to feeling doubt that
achieving them is possible or worth the effort.
Mars and Jupiter are both energetic, and this synergy depicts a powerful,
forceful, energetic person; but likely to become scattered and
unfocused.
Mars is an impatient order-giver while Jupiter is a patient explainer. This clash
depicts inability to be either fully authoritarian or fully
egalitarian in leadership style. Oscillation between the two
tends to "preach" when it should "teach" and "command"
where it should "advise."
This is a mutual aspect (89%) so it's very important!
This is the 3rd time Mars and Jupiter have influenced each other
It symbolizes movement.
Mars allows you to excel due to: independence, bravery, ambition, and
willpower. It creates courageous people, who are strong, strong-willed,
commanding and self-made.

The independence of Mars clashes mildly with the cooperative, charitable nature
of Jupiter, suggesting moral pride and depicting strong favoritism for the
ideas and opinions you have yourself discovered or created, and
aversion to established, pre-dictated religions. It suggests
following unique and very individual codes of ethics and morals
with a great deal of passion.
Both Jupiter and Mercury are intelligent, so their combination clearly depicts
significant intellect; organization and talent; particularly the ability
to intellectually understand moral, philosophical and religious
topics.
This is the 6th time Jupiter and Mercury have influenced each other
The confident leadership qualities of Sun go well with the role-model nature of

wisdom, suggesting significant education and
comprehension of wisdom, morality and

The 5th House's love synergizes with Jupiter's faith, suggesting
faithful love and trustworthy romantic
relationships.
Both the 5th House and Jupiter symbolize children, so their
combination suggests having good children and being
good with children.

As the Moon reflects sunlight into the dark night, the mind reflects the
soul's consciousness into the world. It is therefore the subjective lens
through which we experience life, the seed-bed of all our opinions, and
desires and emotions that result. This monarch of the night sky is, like
the night itself, a symbol of shy, private, internal disposition; and is
very important to all matters of timing and rhythm.

The masculinity of Mars clashes with the femininity of the Moon, producing a
person whose emotions and desires are very independent and
bold. Both the Moon and Mars symbolize a love of change, so together they depict
an unpredictable person, hungry and eager for new
experiences and therefore inclined to travel, following their
own rules and their own heart.

The aesthetic nature of Venus synergizes with the beautiful nature of the Moon,
depicting an attractive person, with artistic sensibilities.
The empathetic nature of Venus synergizes with the emotional nature of the
Moon, signifying a caring person, somewhat over-sensitive and
dependent on partnerships.
The Moon and Venus both have mercantile connotations, so their combination
suggests skill in buying and selling.
This is the 2nd time Moon and Venus have influenced each other
Rāhu's instability goes well with the fluctuating nature of the Moon, suggesting
grace under changing circumstances; flexibility; multiplicity;
plurality. Rāhu's extroverted nature clashes with the Moon's shyness, implying
difficulty expressing oneself; shying away from social and
public settings; need for solitude and personal space. Rāhu's anti-
authoritarian nature clashes with the Moon's queenship, depicting clashes
with authorities; rebeliousness.
This is a conjunction so Moon also influences Rāhu

The depth and introspection of the Moon is very synergistic with the inward pull
so fundamental to the symbolism of Ketu. Thus their combination signifies
profoundly deep emotional experience; significant intuitive
insight; and powerful spiritual pull towards discovery and
actualization of one's core self.
This is the 3rd time Ketu and Moon have influenced each other
The deep, mystical nature of Ketu synergizes with the philosophical nature of
Jupiter, suggesting ability to intuitively grasp sophisticated or
arcane philosophical concepts and spiritual concepts. It depicts an
intuitive approach to religion and philosophy and a deep,
internalized concept of all these topics; along with a deep,
internalized sense of right and wrong.
This is the 3rd time Ketu and Jupiter have influenced each other

Secondary Planets
Be aware that the context set by the main planets
can very significantly bend and change how the
secondary planets should be interpreted. Where
their interpretations are in line with the primary
interpretations, take them as is. Where they
contradict the primary interpretations, however,
either disregard them or consider them merely
indicators of nuances and subtexts in your life.
Ideally, if you can, try to combine the symbolism
in different ways to reach an interpretation that
doesn't contradict the primary interpretations.
D Venus
Venus symbolizes स्त्रीस्वभाव (strī-svabhāva) - something
we generally refer to in English as "femininity."
The most beautiful of all stars, Venus symbolizes the key facets of
femininity - beauty, love, and receptivity. Beauty is in the object as
well as the beholder - so Venus also symbolizes the sophistication and
acuity of our senses. Love is a verb as well as noun, so Venus also
symbolizes what love does: creates harmony, cooperation and partnership.

Venus in Aries:
This is the 8th time Venus and Mars have influenced each other
The selfish nature of the 3rd House contradicts the loving nature
of Venus suggesting problems that revolve around expecting
too much forgiveness and leniency. These problems
can manifest as over-indulgence, or lack of
discipline.
A similar contradiction here is between the competitive nature
of the 3rd House and the Cooperative nature of Venus. This
suggests two problems. One is inability to accomplish
goals, mostly due to giving up to easily and early.
Another problem is feeling competitive and jealous
towards the accomplishments and talents of your
partners.
Venus is in the 3rd House 5 times in your charts
Lordships of Venus
Venus owns Taurus and Libra. In your chart, these signs define your 4th and 9th houses, making
Venus your "4th and 9th lord in the 3rd House."

A Sun
The Sun symbolizes आत्म (ātma) - something we
generally refer to in English as "soul."
As the sun emits light, the soul emits consciousness, which is the basis
for our sense of self ("ego"). It gives vitality and allows us to
experience the world. The Sun therefore also symbolizes vision and
visibility, which makes this greatest of all heavenly lights a symbol of
leadership, authority, confidence, reliability, and career.

Saturn in Taurus:
This is the 2nd time Saturn and Venus have influenced each other
The free and independent nature of Mars clashes with the restricted and
dependent nature of Saturn, suggesting feeling unnecessarily confined
and restricted in any partnership, and therefore tending to be
cruel, unrelenting and unforgiving.
The passionate nature of Mars clashes with the detached nature of Saturn,
depicting someone who can be adamantly uncaring, unattached, and
unconcerned.
The influence of Sun on Saturn is difficult, because the Sun and Saturn are arch
enemies. There is a fundamental clash between the two. The Sun symbolizes
hierarchical authority while Saturn symbolizes the common blue-collar worker.
Bringing Sun and Saturn together therefore depicts problems with
Authority. This means clashing with established authorities and also
finding it difficult to operate in the role of an authority due to
lack of self-confidence and a definite preference for
decentralizing authority and power into the group.
Although there are two synergies between the symbols of the Sun and Saturn,
these usually get overshadowed by the challenging nature of this fundamental
clash. So, the steadiness of Sun combined with the endurance of Saturn, it tends to
depict stubborness; and the strictness of Sun with the strictness of Saturn
tends to symbolize harshness.
This is the 5th time Saturn and Sun have influenced each other
Mercury and Saturn both symbolize practicality and hard-work. So, their
combination suggests being very practical, and working hard to
benefit others.
The intellect of Mercury is harmonious with the logical analytic of Saturn,
depicting a scientific, logical thinker, who is a patient learner able
to concentrate on intellectual tasks.
The tactful nature of Mercury clashes with the blunt nature of Saturn, suggesting
someone whose suggestions and opinions often strike others as blunt, harsh
criticism.
The friendly nature of Mercury clashes with the reserved nature of Saturn,
depicting reluctance or difficulty in making friends.
This is the 3rd time Saturn and Mercury have influenced each other
home,
It symbolizes the private sector of our lives: our
private property, domestic affairs, shyness,
and modesty.
It also symbolizes the deep roots of our being, which
includes our cultural background, ancestry, and
mother.
You have Rāhu in Cancer, which suggests that your real challenge is to dive into the
internal sphere and experience how much more relevant, important and
satisfying the external sphere is when you do so.
L-M Rāhu-Ketu in the 6th-12th
The polarity here is the apparent dichotomy between fantasy and reality / dreams and
work.
The key lesson to learn is that dreams only come true through
work. Reality is a venue for giving tangible shape to our
fantasies. Thus reality is not boring or troublesome, and dreams
are not unnecessary distractions.
The polarity echoes in the dichotomy between abstract and tangible / impractical and
practical.
The key lesson here is that imagination and abstract ideas will
be vague and fuzzy until we put in the practical work required
to give our imagination tangible form in the real world. The
tangible world, conversely, will be dull and unimportant until
we empower it with the fuel of our imagination.
Rāhu in the 6th: You will become an unstoppable powerhouse when you realize that your dreams,
fantasies, and abstract, impractical ideas can be the life and soul of your day to day life in the real
world. Don't see the real world as being more "real" or significant than your dreams. See it as being
the canvas upon which your imagination can paint, the stage upon which your dreams can dance, the
clay in which your abstract concepts can take tangible form and play a real role in the lives of others.

Interpreting Daśā
Don't get stuck trying to make exact predictions of exact dates using daśā tables. To do that, you have
to consult transits to exact positions in your natal chart. Daśā are not meant for that. They are long
periods of time, identifying phases and eras in which various themes, issues and opportunities will
come to the fore in your experience of life.
Interpreting these is very subtle, but to try your hand at it, start by simply reviewing the
interpretations made in this reading for the planet whose dasha you want to know about. Then, find a
sub-daśā (also called a "bhukti") and consider the interpretations made in this reading regarding that
planet. Then, interpret the nature of that period of time by combining those two sets of
interpretations, using the fundamental technique of looking for symbolic convergence or harmony
(where the two symbols are saying the same thing, essentially) and give positive interpretations to
those; and look for symbolic dissonance and clash (where the two symbols say directly opposite
things) and give negative interpretations there.
Circular Chart
This shows a map of the heavens at the moment you were born, in a circular style, helpful for showing
the geometric relationships between the planets and showing the nakṣatra, navāṁśa, and rāśī
simultaneously.
Table of Aspects
In classic Vedic astrology, every planet has its own "lines of sight" to various angles from it. As per
Bṛhat Parāśara Hora, the potency of an aspect or conjunction is calculated by exact angular degrees. I
express this calculation as a percentage, where 100% means full potency and 0% means absolutely no
potency at all.
The planets giving aspects are noted across the top row of each table, below. The planets or house
cusps receiving those aspects are listed down the left column of each. Where a row and column
intersect, I show the percentage of aspect involved. The utmost right column and bottom row show
the totals given (across the bottommost row) and received (down the rightmost column)
I also list any mutual aspects in your chart. Mutual aspects are particularly significant.

This table shows the dignity of each planet in each varga. Your Sun, for example is in Taurus (b) in the
sāptāṁśa (D-7), giving it a dignity of 50% in that varga. You can find this by looking for the Sun's
column (A), and tracing it down to the row for the 7th division.
With this table you can quickly scan for strong and weak points regarding the symbols associated with
each planet. The symbols associated with a planet will be unusually good for you pertaining to the
symbolism of a varga in which it have very good dignity (noted by being in green). Visa versa, a
planet's symbols face challenges pertaining to the symbols of a varga in which it has very low dignity
(noted by being in red).
