Horoscope or Janma Patrika in Indian Vedic Astrology
Horoscope, also known as Janma Patrika, Janam Kundli, or Birth Chart, is a fundamental aspect of Indian Vedic Astrology. It is a detailed astrological chart created based on the exact date, time, and place of a person’s birth. This chart maps the positions of celestial bodies (planets, Sun, Moon) in different houses and signs of the zodiac at the time of birth.
What is a Janma Patrika?
Janma Patrika or Horoscope is a graphical representation of the planetary positions at the time of a person’s birth. It serves as a blueprint of one’s life, revealing insights about personality, career, education, health, marriage, finances, and spiritual tendencies.
Key Components of a Horoscope
- Lagna (Ascendant): The rising sign at the moment of birth.
- 12 Bhavas (Houses): Represent different aspects of life like wealth, career, relationships, etc.
- 12 Rashis (Zodiac Signs): Indicate the placement of planets in signs.
