Which Ayanamsa to choose?

[Guest guest]

Hi Karthik

 

25 years ago i asked the same question,

Which Ayanamsa to choose? By then i had 6 years experience in western astrology

and that was very helpful to assess the ayanamsa to follow. After reading few

books i decided that Lahiri's is the most scientific based. The government of

India paid Mr Lahiri for a research to be done in order to have a single

calendar for the whole country. I do not know of any other ayanamsa that has

taken as long and concise research on the subject as the Lahiri's.

 

The next question that you are likely to encounter is which style of graphic you

want to follow. Myself am happy to follow the North Indian style but i have

friends that feel happy with the South Indian style. It is a question of

preference.

 

Another choice to make is which Rahu to follow, either the true or the mean. In

this case i prefer what the classic books advise, and it is the mean Rahu.

Hi everyone,

 

Been using Lahiri but recently tried Rick Houck's with own chart and so

far it seems to work; actually I hope Rick's is it because if so, I start

Jupiter/Mercury April 14 rather than May 31, and they are in 5/9

relationship. Could use the break. Jupiter/Saturn is 3/11 but its been

wearing me out; previous 5/9s have been much more fun.

The cool thing is it's easy to experiment w/ the GJ software--thanks, Raghu!

Thank you, Visti. I was indeed confused until you answered. I

understand now. I'll use Lahiri.
