Navamsa chart Analysis
Navamsa Means Navam Amsa or Nine Division. Therefore Navamsa means 9th division of a sign or house. It literally indicates the Nine aspects in our life. It is a divisional chart and has been given immense importance in Vedic Astrology.
Navamsa chart analysis is very important for making exact and accurate predictions. It also allows an experienced astrologer to understand and suggest remedial measures for the people under distress.
It is widely used for prediction of Marriage, Fortune, Financial Prosperity, Life Purpose, Spiritual Progress etc.
Navamsa chart Calculation
Now Lets discuss how we can prepare Navamsa chart Manually. But Now a days there are a lot of good Software and online tools available for doing the Calculation.
Step 1
Each sign is 30 degrees. So the entire Zodiac of 12 signs will be 360 degrees. When the span of a sign, 30 degrees is divided by 9, we get 3 degrees 20 minute. This 3 degree 20 minute is the span of each Navamsa. According to this calculation, there are 108 Navamsas for the 12 signs. Each and every Rashi has 9 nakshatra pada and each of them will become a part of the division.
Step 2
The Navamsa of any movable sign starts from that sign itself. The Navamsa for fixed signs will start from the 9th sign from the fixed sign under consideration. For dual signs Navamsa will start from the 5th sign from the dual sign. As per the above calculation, we will also have to place the ascendant in the respective Navamsa.
Step 3
The signs are broadly classified as-Fiery, Earthy, Airy and watery. The Navamsa for fiery signs- Aries, Leo, Sagittarius will start from Aries sign itself. Similarly for Earthy signs- Taurus, Virgo and Capricorn start from Capricorn sign. Navamsa for Airy signs- Gemini, Libra, Aquarius will start from the sign of Libra and the last but not the list, the Watery signs- Cancer, Scorpio and Pisces start only from the sign for Cancer.
Use and Significance of Navamsa chart reading
Navamsa is perhaps the most important divisional chart. After checking the Rashi chart or D1 chart, most of the Astrologers study the D9 chart.

Navamsa is used to understand the strength of a planet. If a planet is exalted in Rashi chart, but debilitated in Navamsa, it will fail to give the desired result. The condition of a planet in the D9 chart will give a hint about the kind of result it can deliver in its period.
The planets Should not be debilitated or Afflicted by enemy planets in Navamsa.
Vargottama and Bhavattama
Any planet which is in Same Sign in both D1 and D9 chart is known as Vargottama Planet. Any planet which is in Same Bhava in both Rashi chart and Navamsa is called Bhavattama Planet. The Vargottama and Bhavattama Planets can make a chart strong and can give Favorable results.

D9 chart Analysis for Planetary Strength
Navamsa chart is very important for assesing the planetary Strength of a Horoscope. If a planet is in own Sign or exaltation Sign or in Friendly Sign in Navamsa, it becomes Strong. If a Debilitated Planet in Rashi chart becomes exalted in Navamsa, its debilitation is canceled and it is considered as Strong.
In the Same way if planets become debilitated in Navamsa, it fails to give good result and it is considered as weak. If a planet is in enemy Sign it will not give expected results.
The Ascendant Lord or Navamsa Lagna Lord , the 5th Lord of Navamsa and 9th Lord of Navamsa should be well placed in D1 chart or Rashi chart for good fortune.
Vargottama
When a planet is in the same sign both in both the Rashi chart and Navamsa chart, it is called Vargottama. It is a divisional chart where the natal and Navamsa dispositor will be the same. Such a planet is extremely powerful to give good results.
Whenever a planet is Vargottama, the qualities of that planet will become the part of your character.
If the Lagna or ascendant of the native becomes Vargottama, it is highly beneficial. The Lagna will become extremely powerful and its Lord will give you a great height.
If Mars is in Aries both in the Rashi and Navamsa chart, it is set to be the own-house Vargottama. This own house Vargottama is very good and makes the planet very strong.
Saturn in Aries in both the charts is set to be debilitated Vargottama. But this kind of Vargottama where the planet is debilitated in both Rashi and Navamsa is not good.
The Sun in the same situation will be said exalted Vargottama. Exalted Vargottama, where the planet is exalted in both Rashi and Navamsa chart, is very good.
In our Vedic Astrology there are several types of Vargottama. Some of them are benefic and some are not.
Benefic Vargottama ascendant are-
Taurus ascendant-Taurus Navamsa
Gemini ascendant-Gemini Navamsa
Cancer ascendant-Cancer Navamsa
Virgo ascendant-Virgo Navamsa
Libra ascendant-Libra Navamsa
Sagittarius ascendant- Sagittarius Navamsa
Pisces ascendant-Pisces Navamsa
Some malefic Vargottama ascendant are-
Aries ascendant-Aries Navamsa
Leo ascendant-Aries Navamsa
Scorpio ascendant-Scorpio Navamsa
Capricorn ascendant-Capricorn Navamsa
Aquarius ascendant-Aquarius Navamsa
Sometimes the planets in their own house in Rashi chart move to the other house owned by them in Navamsa. This position is called Swa-Navamsa. For example if Mars is in Aries in Rashi chart but is posited in Scorpio in Navamsa, it is said to be in Swa-Navamsa. Accordingly Venus in Libra in Rashi chart and in Taurus Navamsa, is also considered Swa-Navamsa.
Pushkar Navamsa
Puskar Navamsa is one of the topics which are not much discussed in our Vedic Astrology. Pushkara is a specle energy that nourishes. In Astrology, there are certain parts of the Zodiac where we can be healed and our soul can be purified.
These positions are known as Puskara bhaga and Pushkara Navamsa. So Pushkara Navamsa nourishes and enhances the quality of the planet placed within it. Pushkara bhagas are specle degrees which can give good luck and positive energy to your chart. Pushkara are not discussed in many texts.
But if an Astrologer dig deep, he will surely come to know about this secret part of Vedic Astrology. So this part of Vedic Astrology is essential to give a deeper insight to the Astrologers.
Puskara Navamsa are auspicious Navamsa which are ruled only by benefic planets. The planets in Pushkar Navamsa behave in an auspicious manner.

Atmakaraka planet in Navamsa
In Jaimini astrology, there are seven karakas that represent seven different things in our life. The karakas are measured by degrees and based on their degrees each of them has a certain role in the horoscope.
The planets with the highest to lowest degree are given a particular karaka name. The planet having the highest degree (0-30) becomes the Atmakaraka. The planets Rahu, Ketu, Neptune, Uranus and Pluto can never be a part of it.
Read: Rules to use Atmakaraka planet in your Horoscope
After figuring out the Atmakaraka, we should observe the placement of the sign of that planet in the Navamsa chart. The placement of Atmakaraka in Navamsa is known as Karakamsa. This placement indicates your spiritual and professional life. Here, you can see the desires of the soul or “Atma’ through the Karakamsa.
When examining the placement of Atmakaraka in Navamsa, you should notice the planet sitting in 12th from the Atmakaraka, if there is any, it indicates the matters related to the soul. Malefic planets like Mars, Rahu or Saturn in the 12th from the Atmakaraka will show the lessons still to learn before the elevation.
A benefic in 12th from the Atmakaraka shows the movement of the soul to the higher world after the physical death. Ketu in 12th from the Atmakaraka determines the gain of ‘Moksha’. If multiple planets occupy the 12th house from Atmakaraka, then the planet with the highest degree in the natal chart will take the lead.
But one may not have any planet in 12th from Atmakaraka quite often. Then we can use the lord of the sitting sign with the sign itself. A malefic lord can give you trouble to reach the ‘Moksha’ whereas a benefic will make that quite easy.
Placement of the 9th house from the Karakamsa shows your achievement in spiritual studies. It will show the luck and smoothness of your soul to achieve the above. If there is malefic in 9th from the Atmakaraka, then you may have to struggle to make the spiritual world out. But, a benefic planet will make the way to realize that one easily with its blessing.
Spiritual progress from Navansa chart
Navamsa is also referred to check the devotion of a person towards his/her religion. We must differentiate between religion and spiritualism. Religion is the path imposed by the society and the family you are born in.
Spiritualism is not bound by them and is the inner urge of a person. Here we are discussing religion and not spiritualism. Every person is religious at least to some extent.
Trines of Navamsa chart
Trines of a horoscope are the dharma trines. Simply we must therefore check the trines of Navamsa for the involvement of a person in religion. The lords of a house carry out the wish of the house.
The trine lords of Navamsa must be related with each other and with the trine houses of Navamsa to make a person religious. Ninth house is the most important house for religion.
The trines of the birth chart are also dharma houses. Thus the lords of trines of birth chart are also to be related in Navamsa.
Another version says that the lord of the ninth house of birth horoscope should be related to trines of Navamsa. This rule must be seen for devotion to religion. Secondly the ninth lord of Navamsa should also relate to the trines of Navamsa.
Any malefic influence (except trine lords) is not welcome. They will not allow the person to follow religion faithfully. The three houses of dharma trine are first, fifth and ninth. We check their significations.
First house
First house must be strong. It should be related to trine lords or natural benefics. The lord of lagan need not be strong
Fifth house
This is the house of intuition and poorva punya. A relationship with a Lagna or Lagna lord with a fifth house is a gift of God. The relation with the ninth promotes intuition towards religion. Ninth house
It is the main house of religion. Its lord is the indicator of direction where the devotion will be carried out by the person.
Mental strength
Moon is the significator of mind. For devotion to any karma we need determination. Devotion needs concentrated effort for a long duration. Moon must have the capacity to sustain adversity. The malefic influence on the Moon is required. This is seen in Navamsa.
Mars and Saturn are two malefic planets. Signs ruled by them are also considered malefic. Moon should occupy the sign of Mars and be with Saturn or aspected by Saturn. Moon should occupy the sign of Saturn and be with Mars or aspected by Mars. This combination is classical sanyas yoga.
Benefic association makes the Moon soft and the person lacks endurance. Placement of the Moon in a sign of benefic planet and aspect of a benefic is not welcome for continued devotion. Benefic relation with Moon give a calm mind. Even Rahu, being malefic, its association with the Moon is not good. Rahu distracts towards material things.
Overcoming lust
Venus is the planet of lust and luxury. The condition of Venus is checked in Navamsa. Venus must be under check to overcome the lust and luxury. Therefore Venus should be under double malefic influence. Venus can be exalted but debilitation of Venus gives base thoughts.
Ninth lord from Moon
Ninth lord from Moon in Navamsa is now seen in Navamsa. This lord must influence trines from the Moon in the Navamsa. When the Moon is debilitated in Navamsa then the ninth lord from Moon is Moon itself. Such persons have inbuilt devotion to religion. The benefic or malefic association will further mould the devotion. This is an important condition.
Jupiter in Navamsa
In the Navamsa chart Jupiter must influence the Lagna or Lagna lord of Navamsa. This will make a person very Knowledgable, Honest, and Fortunate. An afflicted Jupiter is of no use. Jupiter influence on tenth house of Navamsa is equally beneficial for Overall Fortune and Financial Prosperity.
Venus in Navamsa chart
Venus is the Natural Significator of Marriage and Navamsa is the most important divisional chart for Marriage. So venus has special importance in Navamsa. If venus is Afflicted by Rahu and Ketu in D9 chart, it is not good for Marriage. Debilitated Venus in Navamsa is also not good for Relationship. But A well placed Venus is good for Relationship.
Venus also give wealth and prosperity after Marriage. It also indicates a very Good Looking and charming Spouse. Planets in the Navamsa of Venus i.e. Libra and Taurus Navamsa indicates which we enjoyed in previous Life and also enjoys in this life.
In this way we can use the D9 chart to read our horoscope for Different Areas of our Life.
