How to read kundli know in 3 easy steps
What's written in my birth chart? This is a common question we all have. In Hinduism, birth charts hold special significance. Immediately after a child's birth, the first thing done is to create a birth chart with an astrologer. This is done to check if all the celestial bodies in the chart are in the right positions. However, people often can't read their own birth charts and have to consult astrologers, who sometimes suggest making offerings for their wealth. If you want to learn how to read your own birth chart, here is a detailed guide.
Why Should You Read a Birth Chart?
According to Vedic astrology, understanding certain key aspects of your birth chart can provide valuable insights. You've probably been trying to learn about these for some time but haven't completely grasped them.
What Is a Birth Chart?
A birth chart, also known as a horoscope, is a document created based on the positions of planets, constellations, and zodiac signs at the time of your birth. It consists of 12 houses in which planets and signs determine one's fate. The numbers shown in a birth chart represent zodiac signs.
Importance of Reading a Birth Chart:
- • Birth charts reveal doshas (flaws) and yogas (combinations) that can have both positive and negative effects, such as the Kal Sarpa Dosha and Rajayoga.
- • Birth charts often reveal challenges and opportunities in a person's life.
- • In Hindu culture, matching the birth charts of a boy and a girl is essential before marriage.
- • A birth chart informs you about both good and bad situations.
How to Read a Birth Chart?
Step 1: First, you need to know your Ascendant sign (Lagna).
When learning to read your birth chart, it's crucial to start by identifying your Ascendant sign, known as the Lagna in Vedic astrology. You should consider your Ascendant sign as the central point in your chart. The sign that was in the first house of your chart at the time of your birth is your Ascendant sign.
The Importance of the Ascendant Sign: In astrology, each sign is considered a friend, enemy, or neutral to the other signs. Your Ascendant sign plays a pivotal role as it represents you and your life path, and it is associated with specific friends and enemies among the zodiac signs.
Step 2: Understand the Houses in the Birth Chart.
To read your birth chart, you must first become familiar with the 12 houses and their significations, which can be grouped into four categories: Dharma (duty), Artha (resources), Kama (pleasure), and Moksha (liberation).
- • Dharma (Duty) Houses: 1st, 5th, and 9th
- • Artha (Resources) Houses: 2nd, 6th, and 10th
- • Kama (Pleasure) Houses: 3rd, 7th, and 11th
- • Moksha (Liberation) Houses: 4th, 8th, and 12th
Each house has specific indications and reveals different aspects of your life.
Step 3: Recognize the Planets in Each House.
At the time of your birth, the nine planets in Vedic astrology were in one or more of the 12 houses. Planets have their own characteristics and significations. Understanding the relationship between planets and houses is vital.
