Simple and easy way to decipher D-9 (Navamsha Chart)

There has been an overwhelming response for my article Timing of Marriage and I have been
flooded with queries regarding timing of marriage, details of spouse, subsequent marital
happiness and progeny.

Instead of directing the query to me, you yourselves can get answers in simple steps by decoding
D-9, Navamsha Chart without getting into the hassles of full delineation of all charts. However I
must caution you that the information obtained from D-9 has to be further sifted if you desire
accurate answers.

Navamsha, as you are aware is the 1/9th portion / Amsha of a sign which is of 30. Therfore each
Navamsha is equal to 320. D-9 chart is most important in predictive Astrology. It is a
complementary chart to the natal / birth chart wherein planetary strength is assessed. This chart
indicates all about marriage, spouse, partners and skills of the native. In Vedic Astrology, D-9
Chart is said to be essential to consult for accurate predictions.

A planet in same sign in both Rashi and Navamsha chart is said to be Vargottama and gives
excellent results during its Dasha/Bhukti/ Antara periods and also in Transit. Planets become
Vargottama in following cases:

Movable signs (Aries, Cancer, Libra and Capricorn) and in first Navamsha (0- 320)

Fixed signs (Taurus, Leo, Scorpio and Aquarius) and in 5th Navamsha (1320 1640)

Dual signs (Gemini, Virgo, Sagittarius and Pisces) and in last Navamsha (2640 -30)

Timing of Marriage

Navamsha Lagna Lord in Kendra early marriage

Navamsha Lagna Lord in Trikona slight delay but will get married in time.

Navamsha Lagna Lord in Dusthana, spoilt by malefics like Saturn, Mars, Sun, Rahu and
Ketu Marriage beyond 30 years.

Navamsha Lagna Lord is extremely spoilt Denial of marriage.

Navamsha Lagna Lord in 7th House, 7th Lord in 12th House marriage in 23rd or 26th
years of age.

8th House of Rashi chart is 7th House of Navamsha, Venus in Navamsha Lagna, marriage
in 25th or 33rd years of age.
 If Venus in seventh House or the Seventh Lord or the Lagna Lord of Navamsha is all
afflicted then one can say that it amounts to no marriage. It would rather be better if
such a persons does not marry.

Nature of Spouse

The native will get beautiful, cultured, intelligent wife and will be prosperous and
wealthy in his life if Navamsha Lagna Lord is

o Exalted, in Moola Trikona or in Own house.
