Fourth thread on Basics of astrology in #Lockdown21.

Tap quoted tweet to read 3rd thread if you haven't read it. In this thread, we will learn meaning of numbers which you find written in your birth chart. You'll be able to calculate Moon Sign, will know more about degrees.
Request you all to install this application named Hindu Calendar.

In this application, you can find Kundali (कुंडली) option on Left side where you can enter Date and Time and Choose location (place of birth). You can swipe Left to see generated Kundali.

When you enter time and date and location, you get details as in first image. Upon scrolling down, you can see Rashi in which each Graha is transiting and position of that Graha in Degree-Minutes within that Rashi. Swiping left will show you the generated Chart.
In 2nd image, you can notice degree-minute of each Graha in a particular Sign, for example, you can see that Sun is presently in Meen (Pisces) Rashi at 21 degree 58 minutes, that's why you see 21°58' in middle column. Moon is in Simha (Leo) at 14°3' and Shani in Makar 6°52' etc.
Uploading 2nd image of 2nd tweet in this thread again to make things simple.

As I told that each Rashi is 30° wide, any value in 2nd (Rashi Nirayana) column will never exceed 30°.

Also you can see that Shani, Brihaspati and Mangal, all three are presently in same Rashi - Makar.
Lesson 2.1

I am presenting you a blank Birth Chart here. 1st house is marked as Asdt. (Ascendant). Go through all houses in anti-clockwise direction carefully.

Just like every kingdom has a king, each house is presided over by a Rashi. Lord of that Rashi is Lord of that house.
Lesson 3.1

Now you can see that 1 is written in FIRST house. When any number is written in any Bhava, it denotes the Rashi. Whichever Rashi comes in 1st Bhava, that Rashi becomes Ascendant (Lagna). 1st Rashi is Mesh, so the image is of Aries Ascendant chart or मेष लग्न कुंडली.
Lesson 3.2

Since Aries (मेष) Rashi is present in 1st Bhava, Lord (स्वामी) of Aries Mars (मंगल) becomes Lord of 1st house, or Ascendant Lord or Lagnesh (लग्नेश). Mars also owns Scorpio (वृश्चिक) and this Rashi is in 8th house of Aries Lagna Chart, Lord of 8th Bhava is also Mars.
Lesson 3.3

2 is written in the 2nd house, and 2nd Rashi is Taurus (वृष) whose Lord is Venus (शुक्र). Rashi No. 7 is also under Lordship (स्वामित्व) of Venus,. Hence, apart from becoming Lord of 2 nd Bhava (or धनेश), Venus also becomes Lord of 7th Bhava where number 7 is written.
Lesson 3.4

3 is written in the 3rd house, & 3rd Rashi is Gemini (मिथुन) whose Lord is Mercury (बुध). Rashi No. 6 Virgo is also under Lordship (स्वामित्व) of Mercury. Hence, Mercury becomes Lord of 3rd Bhava and Lord of 6th Bhava (one of the Duhsthanas) where number 6 is written.
Lesson 3.5

4 is written in the 4th house, & 4rh Rashi is Cancer (कर्क) whose Lord is Moon (चन्द्र). Since Moon is Lord of only 1 Rashi, it gets Lordship of 4th house in Aries Ascendant chart which represents school education, mother, property etc.
Lesson 3.6

5 is written in 5th house, & 5th Rashi is Leo (सिंह) whose Lord is Sun (सूर्य). Since Sun is also Lord of only 1 Rashi, it gets Lordship of 5th house (represents Intelligence, 1st child, love affairs, speculation)
in Mesh Lagna Kundali. 5th is one of Trikon Bhavas.
Lesson 3.7

9 is written in the 9th house, and 9th Rashi is Sagittarius (धनु) whose Lord is Jupiter (गुरु). Rashi No. 12 is also under Lordship (स्वामित्व) of Jupiter. Hence, Jupiter becomes Lord of 9th Bhava (or भाग्येश), and Lord of 12th Bhava (व्ययेश) where 12 is written.
Lesson 3.8

10 is written in the 10th house, & 9th Rashi is Capricorn (मकर) whose Lord is Saturn (शनि). Rashi No. 11 is also under Lordship (स्वामित्व) of Saturn. Hence, Shani becomes Lord of 10th Bhava (or कर्म भाव), & Lord of 11th Bhava (लाभ भाव) where 11 is written.
Lesson 3.9

It is not needed that Grahas will be posited in their own Rashis. They can sit anywhere. For example, Sun, Lord of 5th house in Mesh Lagna can occupy Ascendant (1st house) or Jupiter, Lord of 9th & 12th houses can sit in 7th Bhava, & Venus, 7th Lord can be elsewhere.
Lesson 3.10

VERY IMPORTANT

The Rashi where Moon (Chandra) is placed in any chart becomes Moon Sign of the native.

Example - Image shows Aries Lagna Chart. In it, Moon occupies FIFTH house where number is written. 5th Rashi is Leo (सिंह).

So, Moon Sign of this native is Leo.
Lesson 3.11

Parashari system, traditionally followed in India believes that, generally, Lord of Trikon (त्रिकोण/Trine) houses (1,5,9) give good results, so in Aries Ascendant chart, Mars (who is also Lagnesh), Sun and Jupiter become auspicious. Other schools differ on it.
In Lesson 3.8, I accidentally wrote 9th Rashi is Capricorn.

It is INCORRECT.

10th Rashi is Capricorn. Read it accordingly.
Lesson 3.12

It is believed Lord of 8th House doesn't give good result but if it ALSO Lord of 1st house (Ascendant Lord too) then it is exempt from this Dosha. Aries Lagna Chart is an example of it. You will see same in Libra Ascendant. लग्नेश को अष्टमेश होने का दोष नहीं लगता.
Lesson 4.1

Now see the chart below. In the 1st House marked as As (abbreviated form of Ascendant), you can see number 2 written. It denotes 2nd Rashi which is Taurus (वृष). Since 1st house has वृष राशि, this chart इस a Taurus Ascendant chart (वृष लग्न कुंडली).
Lesson 4.2

As such, Venus (शुक्र) becomes Lagna Lord (लग्न स्वामी). Venus is also the Lord of Libra (Rashi No. 7)which is in SIXTH Bhava. So, Venus becomes the Lord of 6th Bhava too. Sixth Bhava is a Duhsthana but Venus being Lord of Ascendant is considered auspicious.
Lesson 4.3

Number 3 in 2nd Bhava denotes Rashi No. 3 Gemini (मिथुन) whose Lord is Mercury (बुध). Rashi No. 6 Virgo (कन्या) is also owned by Mercury & No. 6 can be seen in 4th House. So Mercury becomes Lord of 2nd and 5th Bhavas. Not to forget 5th house is one of Trikon Bhavas.
Lesson 4.4

Number 4 in 3rd Bhava denotes Rashi No. 4 Cancer. So Moon becomes Lord of 3rd House which represents courage (पराक्रम), younger siblings(छोटे भाई बहन) and Communication (संचार). A person always seeks growth in this Bhava, it being one of Upachaya Bhavas.
Lesson 4.5

Number 5 in 4th Bhava denotes Rashi No. 5 Leo (सिंह). So Sun (सूर्य) becomes Lord of 4th Bhava which represents mother (माता), house (भवन), school education etc. 4th house is one of the Kendra Bhavas.
Lesson 4.6

You'll see Number 8 written in 7th Bhava. Rashi No. 8 is Scorpio (वृश्चिक) whose Lord is Mars (मंगल). Another Rashi under Lordship of Mars is Aries (Rashi No. 1),& No. 1 can be seen in 12th Bhava. So Mars becomes Lord of 7th + 12th Bhaavas for Taurus Ascendant native.
Lesson 4.7

In 8th Bhava, you can see Number 9 written, which denotes Rashi No. 9 Sagittarius (धनु) owned by Jupiter (बृहस्पति). Jupiter also owns Rashi No. 12 Pisces (मीन), which is in 11th Bhava. So Jupiter becomes 8th & 11th Lord. Jupiter considered malefic for being 8th Lord.
In Lesson No. 4.3, I wrote that number 6 can be seen in 4th House. Sorry, that's a typing error due to 4 and 5 being close on my keyboard.

Please read "No. 6 can be seen in 5th house".

Rest is correct.
Lesson 4.8

Saturn in Taurus Lagna gets Houses of Luck and Profession (9 & 1oth Bhaavas due to Rashi No. 10+11 in them). Saturn, thus, gets another Trikon house in Taurus Lagna Kundli and becomes a benefic (Yogkaraka) Graha for this Lagna . It also gets one house in Kendra.
Homework:

Revise this entire thread. Note down Lords of Trikon in each case. Also try to interpret the enclosed images in the same manner.
Lesson 5.1

Now see the chart below. In the 1st House marked as As (abbreviated form of Ascendant), you can see number 3 written. It denotes 3rd Rashi which is Gemini (मिथुन). Since 1st house has Gemini Rashi, this chart is a Gemini Ascendant chart (मिथुन लग्न कुंडली).
Lesson 5.2

As such, Mercury (बुध) becomes Lagna Lord (लग्न स्वामी) in Mithun Lagna. Mercury is also the Lord of Virgo (Rashi No. 6)which is in FOURTH Bhava. So, Mercury becomes the Lord of 4th Bhava too. 1st and 4th Bhava, both are in Kendra.
Lesson 5.3

Number 4 in 2nd Bhava denotes Rashi No. 4 Cancer (कर्क) whose Lord is Moon (चन्द्र). In a Gemini Ascendant chart, Moon is considered a Marak Graha because Lagna Lord Budh is inimical to it
(But some schools don't treat so). Moon becomes Lord of Family, speech, wealth.
Lesson 5.4

Number 5 in 3rd Bhava denotes Rashi No. 5 Leo (सिंह) whose Lord is Sun (सूर्य). Hence, Sun becomes Lord of Courage, struggle, younger siblings, communication etc. in a Mithun Lagna Kundali. Sun is also a sort of Marak in Gemini Ascendant chart.
Lesson 5.5

Number 7 in FIFTH Bhava denotes Rashi No. 7 Libra (तुला) whose Lord is Venus (शुक्र). Venus is also Lord (स्वामी) Taurus (वृष) - Rashi No. 2 & present in 12th Bhava which is a Duhsthana. 5th Bhava is a Trikon Bhava, considered auspicious & so, Venus becomes Yogkarak.
Lesson 5.6

Number 8 in SIXTH Bhava denotes Rashi No. 8 Scorpio (वृश्चिक) whose Lord is Mars (मंगल). Mars is also Lord (स्वामी) Aries (मेष) - Rashi No. 1 that is present in 11th Bhava. 6th Bhava is a Duhsthana in chart. Mars is considered Malefic for Mithun Lagna.
Lesson 5.7

Number 9 in SEVENTH Bhava denotes Rashi No. 9 Sagittarius (धनु) whose Lord is Jupiter (बृहस्पति). Jupiter is also Lord of Pisces (मीन) - Rashi No. 12 present in 10th Bhava. Both these Bhavas are in Kendra. Jupiter can act as malefic or benefic depending on position.
Lesson 5.8

Number 10 in EIGHTH Bhava denotes Rashi No. 10 Capricorn (मकर) whose Lord is Saturn (शनि). Saturn is also Lord of Aquarius (कुम्भ) - Rashi No. 11 present in 9th Bhava. 9th Bhava forms Trikon, so, Saturn is considered benefic here despite being Lord of 8th Bhava.
Lesson 5.9

Some students of Parashari system believe that in Mithun Lagna, Jupiter in 3, 6, 8 and 12th Bhavas acts as malefic and does not give good results due to Kendradhipati Dosha (केन्द्राधिपति दोष) while in other Bhavas, it gives good results.

Read next tweet.
Lesson 5.10

However, many other schools of astrology do not believe in केन्द्राधिपति दोष (Kendradhipati Dosha) and are of considered view that Jupiter, even when placed in any of 3,6,8 or 12th houses, can act as Benefic for Mithun Lagna natives. I will explain their view later.
