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.
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.
Own sign (Swakshetra): A sign ruled by the planet itself, such as Mars in Aries or Scorpio. A planet here is comfortable and strong.
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.
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.
