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.
Dusthana / Trik houses
The 6th, 8th and 12th houses, linked with obstacles, loss and hidden matters.
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.
Benefic
Naturally helpful planets: Jupiter, Venus, a waxing Moon, and Mercury when not joined by malefics.
Malefic
Naturally harsh planets: Sun, Mars, Saturn, Rahu, Ketu, a waning Moon, and Mercury joined by malefics.
Exaltation (Uchcha)
The sign where a planet is strongest: Sun in Aries, Moon in Taurus, Mars in Capricorn, Mercury in Virgo, Jupiter in Cancer, Venus in Pisces, Saturn in Libra. "Deep exaltation" is its exact peak degree.
Debilitation (Neecha)
The sign opposite a planet's exaltation, where it is weakest, for example Sun in Libra or Jupiter in Capricorn.
Friend's and enemy's signs
Planets have natural friendships and enmities. A planet in a sign ruled by a friend is supported; in an enemy's sign it is uneasy.
Aspect (Drishti)
A planet's glance on another house. Every planet aspects the 7th house from itself; Mars also the 4th and 8th, Jupiter the 5th and 9th, Saturn the 3rd and 10th.
Conjunction
Two or more planets in the same sign (and so the same house).
Exchange (Parivartana)
Two planets each occupying the other's sign, for example Mars in Taurus and Venus in Aries. It links the houses they rule.
Navamsha (D9)
The ninth-division chart. Each sign is split into nine parts of 3°20′; the Navamsha shows the deeper strength of each planet and is key for marriage.
Rahu and Ketu
The Moon's north and south nodes. These shadow planets are always opposite each other and are treated as malefics.
Chara karakas
Significators chosen by degree: the planet with the highest degree in its sign is the Atmakaraka (soul), the next the Amatyakaraka (career), and so on. Karakamsha is the Atmakaraka's Navamsha sign.
