8. Analysis of Monthly chart

The monthly chart is analyzed in the same manner as the annual chart. It must always be analyzed in conjunction with the annual & birth chart. The results of monthly chart will obviously be applicable to the month under consideration. The lord of the month has the same importance/ significance in a monthly chart as the year lord has in an annual chart. The Tajika yogas, aspects, Sahams, and other Parashari principles may all be applied in order to make possible a closer scrutiny of timing of events. As per Neelkanth, if the Navamsha lords of the lagna, of the lagna lord and of the Moon have friendly aspects (3-11 or 5-9), the native enjoys sound health. If these Navamsha lords have inimical aspects, there would be mental tension, illness and misfortune during the month.

1. Lagna lord Venus is in 2^nd house with Mrityu Saham in Rahu-Ketu axis. In annual chart also Venus was in Rahu-Ketu axis.

2. The Muntha & Muntha lord Moon is associated with 12^th lord Mars and 8^th lord of birth & monthly chart Jupiter.

3. The lord of the month and of the year, Sun, is in Ishraf yoga with 12^th lord Mars indicating explosion & violence.

4. Retrograde Saturn was in Poorna Ithasala with 8^th lord Jupiter.

5. Retrograde Saturn aspects lagna & Muntha.

6. The Navamsha lords of Lagna, of Lagna lord and of Moon are Saturn, Jupiter and Mars respectively. All three are in inimical aspect with each other being in 3-9 axis, indicating great misfortune.

7. None of the Kendra/ Trikone houses had any benefic influence.

8. The native had dasha of Rahu-Mercury in birth chart and Patyani dasha of Mercury in Annual chart. In the monthly chart, Mercury was in 12^th house of inimical Mars and aspected by Mars (Ishraf Yoga) and by Rahu from 8^th house.

9. The native was assassinated in a violent explosion on 21 May 1991.

Let us consider another monthly chart of Ms Indira Gandhi for the Month of Oct 1984. She had Cancer lagna in both natal & annual chart. The dasha operating during oct 1984 in natal chart was Saturn-Mars and Pratyari dasha during oct 1984 was that of Saturn.

Chart No. 47: Monthly Chart of Mrs Indira Gandhi for Oct 1984

Main features were:

1. Lagna lord Mercury was in 2^nd house with 6^th lord Saturn & 12^th lord Sun.

2. The 6^th lord Saturn (dasha lord of natal & annual chart) was in Ithasala with 8^th lord & Muntha lord Mars, placed in 4^th house.

3. The Mars was also in Ithasala with Moon (lagna lord of natal & annual chart) and with lagna lord Mercury.

4. The Moon was also in Ithasala with Saturn.

5. Muntha is in 3^rd house in Rahu-Ketu axis.

6. The affliction of lagna, lagna lord, & Moon by 6^th & 8^th lord Saturn & Mars, caused assassination of the native on 31 Oct 1984 by bullet injury.

9. The Day Chart

1. Just as Sun’s transit through one sign indicates the monthly return of the Sun, similarly its transit through one degree indicates daily return of the Sun. The Sun covers approximately a longitudinal arc of one degree every day. Keeping the minutes & seconds of the Sun’s natal longitude constant and adding one degree for each day, gives the longitude of the Sun for a given day. The time at which the Sun attains this longitude is called Dina-Pravesh or daily return of the Sun. A days chart can then be cast and analyzed using known parameters. Thus there can be 365 day-charts in any given year.

2. According to Neelkanth, we should have full calculations in respect of positions of planets and houses in a day chart. In a day chart, the lagna sign and the Moon sign becomes extra-important. The results should be spelt out on the basis of strength or weakness of Navamsha lords of the Lagna and of the Moon. The Muntha progresses by five minutes per day (as it moves by 2 degree 30 min in a month). This will help locate the position of on any given day. If the day lord, month lord, year lord and Muntha lord are well placed and well aspected, the day will be good. The Malefic placing, association and aspect will make it inauspicious.

3. The results of a day chart depend to a great extent on the position of Moon at the time of Dina-Pravesh. For working out the general results, we take only the degree and minutes of the Moon and not its sign number. This is multiplied by two and divided by five. The Moon has 12 states in a sign depending upon its position. The number as quotient tells us about the past. In predicting the results as per position of Moon, we should take results of the number next to the quotient. The 12 states of the Moon and its corresponding results are as under:

Quotient	State of the Moon	Results
1	Pravas (Journey)	Journeys-short/ long
2	Nasta (Destruction)	Excess expenditure, loss of wealth
3	Maran (Death)	Death or death like troubles
4	Jaya (Victory)	Victory over Enemies
5	Hasya (Laughter)	Enjoyment, pleasure
6	Rati (Indulgent	Sexual satisfaction
7	Kreeda (Sports)	Sports, game or fun
8	Prasupta (Sleep)	Sleeping or relaxing
9	Bhukta	Fear, pain etc.
10	Jwara (Fever)	Disease, illness
11	Kampita (Shivering)	Sorrows & losses
12	Susthita (Well placed)	Comforts, Joy & pleasures

5. Casting of a Monthly Chart

1. A monthly chart is usually casted to ascertain/ confirm a particular event in a native’s life. For example Mr. Rajiv Gandhi was assassinated on 21 May 1991, during his 47^th year life. In order to make a monthly chart for May 1991, we first refer back to chart No. 26, Annual chart for Rajiv Gandhi for 1990-91. It is seen that longitude of the Sun is Leo 3 degree 49 min 4 sec. From Ephemeris of 1991, the date & time during the month of May (and before date of the event), we find that the Sun attains in Taurus this longitude of the Sun. The exact time of Maas-Pravesh is worked out from the Ephemeris for May 1991 as under:

a) The longitude of Sun, at 5:30 AM on 19 May 1991 is Taurus 3 degree 47 min 57 sec.

b) The longitude of Sun on 20 May 1991 at 5:30 AM is Taurus 4 degree 45 min 43 sec. Thus our required degree of Sun falls between 5:30 on 19 May 1991 and 5:30 AM on 20 May 1991.

c) The Sun must move another 1 min 7 sec from the time on 5:30 at 19 May 1991 to reach the required longitude of the Sun.

d) The movement of Sun in 24 hours is 57 min 46 sec. Therefore the time taken for the Sun to attain the required longitude after 5:30 AM on 19 May 1991 is 27 min 50 sec.

e) Therefore the Maas-Pravesh time will be on 19 May 1991 at 5: 57:50 AM (IST).

2. Alternatively with the help of Ephemeris of May 1945, find out Maas-Pravesh in May 1945, which happens to be on 18 May 1945 at Friday 11h, 1 min, 45 sec. Add Dhruvank for 46 completed years, which as per table is 1 day, 19h, 1 min, 27 sec. The total would give the Maas-Pravesh in May 1991 as 7^th day (Sunday) on 19^th May at 6h, 3m, 12 sec. It may be noted that this Maas-Pravesh differs from the one calculated by previous method by over 5 minutes. The lagna in either case be in Taurus but in different Navamsha. The readers may cast the monthly based on either Maas-Pravesh timing and decide the utility of the method for themselves.

3. Based on Maas-Pravesh of 5^th, 57 min, 50 sec on 19 May 1991, at Bombay the monthly chart will be as under:

Chart No. 46: Rajiv Gandhi: Monthly Chart for the month of May 1991

6. Muntha in Monthly Chart

As stated earlier in the chapter on “Muntha”, the Muntha is in lagna at the time of birth at the same degree as the lagna itself. Every year it progresses by one sign or every month 2 degree, 30 min. For placing Muntha in a monthly chart, first work out its position in the annual chart. For example in above mentioned case, since the annual chart is for 47^th year, the completed years are 46 and hence the Muntha will be in Gemini at the same degree as the lagna in birth chart i.e. 14 degree 36 min. The native was born in Aug 1990, and before May 1991, he had completed nine months of his 47^th year. In nine months, the Muntha would have advanced by 9x 2 degree 30 min or 22 degree 30 min. Adding this value to the Muntha in annual chart, we get:

Gemini 14 degree 36 min + 22 degree 30 min = Cancer 7 degree 6 min.

7. The Maasesha or the Lord of the Month

In a monthly chart, the role & significance of Lord of the month is the same as that of lord of the year in an annual chart. The mode of selection is also similar. In the annual chart, there are five offices bearers (lagna lord of birth & annual chart, Muntha lord, Tri-rashi pati, & Dinratri-pati) out of which one who is is the strongest in Panch-vargiya Bala and aspects lagna is chosen as lord of the year. In case of monthly chart, there is an additional sixth office bearer, the lord of sign occupied by Sun in case of day Maas-Pravesh or the lord of the Moon sign lord if Maas-Pravesh is in the night. In the above mentioned example, the lord of the month is Sun.
