Terms used on this page

Lagna (Ascendant)
The zodiac sign rising on the eastern horizon at the moment of birth. It becomes the 1st house, and every other house is counted from it.
Trikona
The trinal houses (1st, 5th and 9th), associated with fortune, merit and intelligence.
House lord
The planet that rules the sign on a house. "Lord of the 9th" means the ruler of the sign falling in the 9th house.
Malefic
Naturally harsh planets: Sun, Mars, Saturn, Rahu, Ketu, a waning Moon, and Mercury joined by malefics.
Conjunction
Two or more planets in the same sign (and so the same house).
Rahu and Ketu
The Moon's north and south nodes. These shadow planets are always opposite each other and are treated as malefics.
