Indu Lagna – Promised Wealth in Your Birth Chart

Indu Lagna – Promised Wealth in Your Birth Chart

Every human being is destined to perform particular Karma in his or her lifetime. The Karma done would determine the result, which is earnings. Some times people indulge into a profession or business which is not suitable to their birth chart. Today’s article would guide you in determining the job or business which you should do to be in sync with your birth chart. To reach your desired destination comfortably it is always better to swim with the tide rather than swimming against the tide. Thus, astrology plays an important role in determining what suits you the best.

In Vedic astrology, there is a concept called Indu Lagna which is calculated using a simple methodology. Indu Lagna determines the amount of wealth one would earn in his or her life time depending on the placement of Indu Lagna in the original birth chart, the placement of planets in the Indu Lagna, the aspects on Indu Lagna. It also determines the difficulties in earning wealth which is determined by placement of planets in 6th and 8th house from Indu Lagna. As per Uttar Kalaamrit, each planet is assigned specific points as below. Here the nodes viz. Rahu and Ketu are not considered.

The steps are very simple.

Step1: Determine the lordship of 9th house from Lagna (first house of birth chart) and note down the corresponding number as per above table.

Step2: Determine the lordship of 9th house from Moon and note down the corresponding number as per above table.

Step 3: Add the both the values from above 2 steps and divide the result by 12.

Step 4: Note down the remainder of the division done in step 3. If the remainder is 2, then count 2 houses from Moon’s position in birth chart and then that house is your Indu Lagna. If the remainder is 0, then count 0 house from Moon’s position in birth chart and then that house is your Indu Lagna which means the house where Moon is placed in your birth chart is your Indu Lagna.

Let me illustrate this with an example:

We will compute Indu Lagna in the above chart.

Step1: Determine the lordship of 9th house from Lagna (first house of birth chart) and note down the corresponding number as per above table.

In the above chart, 9th house from Lagna has Rashi Number 11 -Aquarius which is ruled by Saturn. Thus, we will take the number allotted to Saturn which is 1.

Step2: Determine the lordship of 9th house from Moon and note down the corresponding number as per above table.

In the above chart, 9th house from Moon has Rashi Number 8 -Scorpio which is ruled by Mars. Thus, we will take the number allotted to Mars which is 6.

Step 3: Add the both the values from above 2 steps and divide the result by 12.

Adding the answers from Step 1 & Step 2, we get 7 (1+6). Dividing this by 12, we get remainder as Seven.

Step 4:

Thus, Indu Lagna is equal to 7 houses from the house where Moon is placed in Birth Chart. In our example, seven houses from Moon, we get Virgo. Thus, Virgo is the Indu Lagna.

Only computing the Indu Lagna will not help you till you learn to interpret it. Now that we know the Indu Lagna is Virgo, we will have to re-draw the above birth chart making Virgo as the first house (Indu Lagna) keeping planets position constant. We will interpret this chart to understand application of this concept. The chart with Virgo as the Indu Lagna looks as below:

The Lord of Indu Lagna Virgo which is Mercury is placed in the Lagna itself. It is conjunct with Mars. Mercury represents intellect and Mars represents Machinery. So, this person would be earning his wealth from intelligent Machines. Mercury also represent business so this person would be in business. Indu Lagna is aspected by Ketu sitting in 9th house with its 5th aspect. Ketu represents details and nitty grit ties. The native’s profession would be detail oriented. Indu Lagna is aspected by Moon. Moon represents dynamism and changes. The native’s profession would be very dynamic and constantly changing.

This birth chart is of Bill Gates, a well-known billionaire and philanthropist. His business is known to everyone. He is into Computers which are nothing but intellectual machines aptly represented by Mercury and Mars combination. There are constant updates to his product. Newer and newer version are released periodically. This again is seen from the Indu Lagna chart as Moon which represents constant changes is aspecting the Indu Lagna. His business involves lot of concentration and minute details. Ketu which represents meditation and focus and also represents finer details aspects the Indu Lagna.

In this particular manner you can determine your Indu Lagna and then adopt a profession or business congenial with your birth chart. In case of any doubts, please feel free to post below in comments section. Hope you enjoyed this article on Indu Lagna.
