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.
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.
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).
Gulika and Mandi
Sensitive points calculated from Saturn's portion of the day or night; they behave like strong malefics.
