Free Navamsa (D9) Chart Calculator

Your Navamsa splits each Vedic sign into nine finer divisions and re-reads your planets through them — the chart Jyotish turns to for marriage, and for how much real strength a planet actually carries. Free, no account.

Without a birth time, your Moon — and any planet close to a division line — may land one division off.

Common questions

What is a Navamsa (D9) chart?
One of several classical divisional charts (vargas) in Jyotish. Every sign in your main chart is divided into nine equal parts of 3°20' each, and each part maps onto one of the twelve signs in a fixed, repeating pattern. The result is a second chart, layered underneath the first, read for marriage and partnership and for how much genuine strength a planet's main placement actually holds.
Why is it read for marriage specifically?
Classical Jyotish treats the D9 as the deeper truth of a chart — what a placement is made of once you look past its surface. Since marriage is considered one of life's most defining unions, tradition reads the Navamsa, and especially its Ascendant (the Navamsa Lagna) and its Venus and 7th-house placements, as showing more about a partnership than the main chart alone.
What does "Vargottama" mean?
When a planet — or the Ascendant — falls in the same sign in both the main chart and the Navamsa, it's called Vargottama, roughly "best of the divisions." Classically this is read as a placement with unusual staying power, since two independent divisions of the sky agree on it.
Why don't you ask for my birth place?
The seven classical planets' signs don't depend on where you were born, only on when — so this calculator can give you all seven without it. The one placement that does need an exact time and place is the Navamsa Lagna (Ascendant), which we leave out rather than guess.
