Numerology
Numerology assigns vibrations to numbers. Your Life Path number comes from adding all digits of your birth date until a single digit remains (11, 22 and 33 are kept as Master Numbers). The Chaldean system, used for name numbers, maps letters to numbers 1β8 and is considered the older, more mystical system.
Sun Sign vs Vedic Rashi
Western astrology uses the tropical zodiac, while Vedic astrology uses the sidereal zodiac, which currently differs by about 24 degrees (the Ayanamsha). Thatβs why your Vedic Sun sign is often one sign earlier. In Vedic astrology the Moon sign (Rashi) and Ascendant (Lagna) are even more important.
Ashtakoot Guna Milan
The eight kootas together total 36 points. Traditionally 18+ is acceptable, and 28+ is excellent. Nadi (8 points) and Bhakoot (7 points) carry the most weight, and their doshas have specific cancellation rules that an astrologer checks carefully.
Vimshottari Dasha
This 120-year planetary cycle begins from the lord of your birth nakshatra. Each Mahadasha shapes the themes of that phase of life. The exact balance at birth depends on the Moonβs precise degree, which requires birth time.
