Ashtakvarga is a unique system in Vedic astrology that assigns numerical values to assess the strength and influence of planets in different houses of your birth chart.
The Ashtakvarga system uses a point-based method where each planet contributes points (0-8) to each house. These points help determine favorable and unfavorable periods in life, as well as the strength of different life areas.
Each of the 7 planets plus the Ascendant contribute points to all 12 houses. Higher points in a house indicate more favorable results from that house's significations.
The total of all planetary contributions to each house gives the Sarvashtakvarga, which shows the overall strength of each house in your chart.
Ashtakvarga is particularly useful for timing events. When planets transit through houses with high points, they give favorable results.
Each house represents different life areas. The Ashtakvarga points help identify which areas of life will be stronger or weaker for you.
Ashtakvarga points are calculated based on the relative positions of planets from each other and from the Ascendant. Each planet contributes points (bindus) to the 12 houses based on specific rules laid out in classical texts. The system considers the placement of all seven planets plus the Ascendant.
In Sarvashtakvarga, houses with 28 or more points are considered strong and give favorable results. Houses with 25-27 points are average, while those below 25 points are weak and may present challenges. For individual planet Ashtakvarga, 4 or more points is generally favorable.
Ashtakvarga is primarily used for timing events and assessing the strength of different life areas. When transiting planets move through houses with high points in their Ashtakvarga, they tend to give positive results. It's also used to determine favorable periods for important activities and to identify life areas that need attention or remedial measures.
