What it covers

Varshaphala technique: year lord, Muntha, Tajika aspects, sahams and yearly judgement.

Principal Tajika text on annual charts (varshaphala), sahams and Tajika aspects and yogas.

Signature methods

  • Sixteen Tajika yogas based on applying and separating aspects
  • Year-lord selection by scored procedure
  • Sahams for topic-specific points within the year

What makes it different

It brings Perso-Arabic aspect doctrine into Indian practice with orbs and application, unlike whole-sign Parashari aspects.

How the Tajika school reads a chart

Chapter-by-chapter summary

Tajika Neelakanthi is divided into three parts — Samjna (definitions), Varshaphala (annual charts) and Prashna (questions). The outline follows those parts.

How to work through Tajika Neelakanthi

  1. 1Learn the sixteen Tajika yogas in the Samjna section before attempting an annual reading.
  2. 2Cast the solar return precisely — the year lord and Muntha both depend on it.
  3. 3Read the annual chart against the running Vimshottari period, never on its own.
