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.
Malefic: Naturally harsh planets: Sun, Mars, Saturn, Rahu, Ketu, a waning Moon, and Mercury 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).
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.
