If the Prashn Lagna is among Vushabha, Karkataka,
Midhuna, Makara, or Dhanu, or Ravi Hora, it is a day
birth.
If Meena rises in Rasi, or Navamsh at the time of
query, the birth should have been at sunset, or at a
time, when day starts (i.e. sunrise), or at mid-day,
or at midnight.
The number of degrees past in the Prashn Lagna, or
the degrees traversed by Chandra at the time of
query will correspond to the Ghatis passed from
sunrise, or from sunset at birth.
The upper portion of the body represents a movable
Rasi, the middle portion a fixed Rasi and the lower
portion a dual Rasi.
The Lagna at birth can be determined according to
the part of the body, viz. head etc., touched by the
querist, or based on the eatables, if bought by the
querist, or the appearances, that may be noted at
that time, or any hue, heard at that time.
Note the Rasi occupied by the strongest Grah and its
position with reference to Prashn Lagna. So many
Rasis away from that Grah will the natal Lagna be.
Possibly, the Prashn Lagna, or it Konas can also
correspond to the natal Lagna, or the Rasi, from
which a Grah lends its Drishti to Prashn Lagna can
also be the natal Lagna. Alternatively, the Rasi
owned by the Grah in Prashn Lagna may coincide with
Janm Lagna.
Note the number of Rasis between Prashn Lagna and
the Lagna at sunrise on the day of the query. So
many stars counted from Ashvini will be the natal
star.
Multiply by 2 the difference of Rasis between Prashn
Lagna and Udaya Lagna. To this product, add the
number denoted by the ruling Nakshatr at the time of
query. Divide the final product by 27 and the
remainder will represent the birth star counted from
Ashvini.
The Prashn Matras (i.e. the value of the words
uttered by the querist) should be added twice and
thrice and be divided by 27. The remainder counted
from Ashvini will reveal the natal star.
The rays for the 12 Rasis from Mesha are 9, 8, 14,
8, 11, 9, 6, 7, 5, 10, 8 and 14, respectively. For
the Grahas from Surya these are 20, 18, 12, 14, 8,
18 and 10. Thus, ancient sages say.
The figure denoted by the rays for Prashn Lagna
(i.e. the rays for the said Rasi) should be
multiplied by the figure denoted by the rays for the
Grah there in. Divide the product by 12. The
remainder will indicate the Janm Rasi counted from
Mesha. Similar process to Udaya Lagna will yield the
Nakshatr at birth, when divided by 27.
If there is no Grah in the said Rasi, it should be
multiplied by the figure of rays of the Grah and the
resultant product be divided by 27. The remainder
left thus should be treated, as Nakshatr. Instead of
27 divide by 12 to get the Janm Rasi.
The figures of the Rasi, which is Lagna at the time
of query should be added to the Grah concerned. The
product should be divided by 27; the remainder
indicates birth star, when counted from Ashvini.
Thus ends the 27th Ch. entitled “Lost Horoscopy” in
Horashara of Prithuyasas, son of Varah Mihira.
