Divisional Charts Calculator See your D2 to D60 varga charts, with the D10 Dasamsa

A divisional chart, or varga, divides every sign of the zodiac into smaller parts and maps each part to a sign, giving each planet and the ascendant a sign in that chart. Vedic astrologers read each varga for one area of life alongside the birth chart (D1): the D10 Dasamsa for career, the D7 Saptamsa for children, the D9 Navamsa for marriage.

Use the time from your birth certificate if you have it. The Lagna of the finer charts changes every few minutes, so they depend most on the birth time.

Your birth details are used only to calculate this chart. They are not saved to an account or added to the page address. This tab remembers them for the other calculators and forgets them when you close it.

What the calculator shows

Everything comes from one chart calculation, the same one the Lagna calculator uses.

  • Sixteen charts

    The Shodasavarga, the sixteen charts of the Parashari tradition: D1, D2, D3, D4, D7, D9, D10, D12, D16, D20, D24, D27, D30, D40, D45 and D60, plus the D6 Shashthamsa and the D8 Ashtamsa. Pick one to see it in full.

  • Each chart in full

    The chart's Lagna, its lord, and every planet's sign and house, with houses counted from that chart's own Lagna. Switch between North and South Indian styles.

  • D1 and the chart side by side

    For each of the nine grahas: its sign in the birth chart and its sign in the chart you picked, with the planets that keep their D1 sign marked.

  • Birth-time window

    For how many minutes earlier and later each chart's Lagna stays the same, and a note when a slightly different birth time would change a sign.

  • All charts at a glance

    One table with the Lagna and the nine grahas across every chart, so a planet's signs can be read across the vargas.

  • Articles on the charts

    Links to our articles on the D10, D2, D8, D12, D20 and D60 charts, and on the planets in your D10 where we have one.

Why the birth time matters

The ascendant moves through a whole sign in about two hours, so the D1 Lagna rarely depends on a few minutes. A varga cuts each sign into smaller parts: a D10 part is 3° wide and the ascendant crosses it in about 12 minutes; a D60 part is 0.5° wide and takes about 2 minutes. The finer the chart, the more its Lagna, and every house number in it, depends on an exact birth time.

The result shows, for each chart, for how many minutes earlier and later its Lagna stays the same. For the D24, D27, D40, D45 and D60, where it changes within about 5 minutes, read the chart only with a birth time you trust, or after birth-time rectification by an astrologer.

How DKSCORE calculates divisional charts

  • From DKSCORE's chart engine

    Every sign in every chart comes from DKSCORE's chart engine, the same one behind the DKSCORE app, using the Parashari rules for each varga. This page only draws and compares what the engine returns.

  • Part size of each chart

    Each sign is divided into parts of this size: D2 Hora: 15°; D3 Drekkana: 10°; D4 Chaturthamsa: 7°30′; D6 Shashthamsa: 5°; D7 Saptamsa: about 4°17′; D8 Ashtamsa: 3°45′; D9 Navamsa: 3°20′; D10 Dasamsa: 3°; D12 Dwadasamsa: 2°30′; D16 Shodasamsa: 1°52′30″; D20 Vimsamsa: 1°30′; D24 Chaturvimsamsa: 1°15′; D27 Saptavimsamsa: 1°06′40″; D30 Trimsamsa: 5°, 5°, 8°, 7° and 5°; D40 Khavedamsa: 45′; D45 Akshavedamsa: 40′; D60 Shashtiamsa: 30′.

  • The Trimsamsa (D30)

    The D30 is the one chart with unequal parts. In odd signs the parts are 5°, 5°, 8°, 7° and 5°, ruled by Mars, Saturn, Jupiter, Mercury and Venus; in even signs the order is reversed.

  • Houses from each chart's Lagna

    The sign of the ascendant in a chart is that chart's Lagna, and its houses are whole signs counted from it, the same way D1 houses are counted from the Lagna.

  • The D9 in detail

    The D9 here is the same navamsa as on the Navamsa calculator, which adds vargottama planets, dignity in the D9 and articles on each navamsa placement.

  • Sidereal chart

    Positions come from a sidereal chart with the Lahiri ayanamsa for your date, time and place of birth.

FAQ

Divisional charts calculator: questions and answers

What are divisional charts?
Divisional charts, or vargas, are charts built from the birth chart by dividing every sign into smaller parts and mapping each part to a sign. A planet's sign in a varga is the sign its part maps to. Astrologers read each varga for one area of life together with the birth chart (D1), for example the D10 for career and the D7 for children.
Which divisional charts does the calculator show?
The sixteen charts of the Parashari tradition, the Shodasavarga: D1, D2, D3, D4, D7, D9, D10, D12, D16, D20, D24, D27, D30, D40, D45 and D60, plus the D6 (Shashthamsa) and the D8 (Ashtamsa). Each chart shows the rule it was built with. The D5 and D11 are not shown, because different sources build them differently.
What is the D10 (Dasamsa) chart?
The D10, or Dasamsa, divides each sign into ten parts of 3°. It is traditionally read for career and profession. In the Parashari method the parts of an odd sign are counted from the sign itself and those of an even sign from the ninth sign from it. The calculator opens on your D10 and lists the planets in it house by house.
Why does the Lagna of the D60 change so quickly?
A D60 part is only 0.5° wide, and the ascendant crosses half a degree in about 2 minutes. So a birth time a minute or two off can give the D60 a different Lagna and renumber its houses. The same holds, a little less sharply, for the D24, D27, D40 and D45. The result shows the window for every chart.
What does "same sign as in the D1" mean?
It marks a planet that sits in the same sign in the birth chart and in the chart you picked. In the D9 such a planet is called vargottama. The calculator marks it in every chart so you can see which placements repeat across the vargas.
Why does another calculator show different divisional charts?
The most common reason is the birth time, which moves the Lagna of the finer charts within minutes. Another is the ayanamsa: software that uses a different one shifts every planet slightly, which matters for a planet near the edge of a part. A third is the method: some charts, such as the D2, D3 and D30, have more than one tradition. This calculator uses the Parashari rules.
Do I need my exact birth time?
Yes. The planets' signs in the vargas change slowly, apart from the Moon in the finer charts, but each chart's Lagna, and every house counted from it, changes with the birth time: about every 12 minutes in the D10 and about every 2 minutes in the D60. Use the time on your birth certificate if you have it.
Are my birth details saved?
Your details are used only to calculate the result. They are not saved to an account or profile, and they are never added to the page address or sent to analytics.
