Guest guest Posted August 11, 2004 Report Share Posted August 11, 2004 Namaste, In the part of India I am from, Tithi based birthday celebration is the most popular (though I must concede that my father pays special attention to the nakshatra based birthday too). Perhaps there are parts of India where nakshatra based birthday is popular. I have been experimenting with Yoga Pravesha charts and Nakshatra Pravesha charts with two different dasas. Annual TP, YP and NP charts are all cast when Sun is transiting in his natal sign. In TP, Moon-Sun longitude differential matches that at birth. In YP, Moon+Sun (or the mid-point of Moon and Sun) matches that at birth. In NP, Moon's longitude matches that at birth. Of course, if Sun's longitude itself matches that at birth, that is Tajaka. Please note that NP and YP are research only and not from the tradition. Only TP is from the tradition. As per my researches, each chart is the best for certain matters. I will share my researches with all at a later point of time. I am not fully ready. I am cc'ing this mail to the vedic astrology for the benefit of others. I hope you do not mind. best regards, Narasimha - "S Venkatesh" <ssvk7 <pvr Sunday, August 08, 2004 2:03 PM Tithi Pravesh > JAI SRIRAM > Dear Sir, > It is quite strange that "traditional Hindu's celebrate > their birth days (called Jayanti or Janma tithi) on the Vedic date (Tithi) > of the luni-solar calendar" from your article 'Tithi Pravesha' and also > "birthday as per the luni-solar calendar is traditionally celebrated when > janma tithi returns in the same lunar month". > Upto my knowledge for a human being birthday is > celebrated every year only on the Janma Nakshatra.Only Shraddh for the > forefathers celebrated on tithi's.
