Understanding the Navamsa Chart

The Navamsa chart, also known as the D9 chart, is the most important divisional chart in Vedic astrology. The word 'Navamsa' comes from Sanskrit, where 'Nav' means nine and 'Amsa' means division. Each zodiac sign of 30° is divided into nine equal parts of 3°20' each.

Marriage & Relationships

The Navamsa chart is primarily used for analyzing marriage prospects, spouse characteristics, and the quality of married life. The 7th house of the Navamsa reveals crucial details about your life partner.

Dharma & Purpose

The Navamsa is also called the 'Dharamsa' as it reveals your life's dharma (purpose) and spiritual path. It shows the underlying strengths and potential that manifest in the second half of life.
