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.
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.
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.
