Namaste Frank,

Yes, you will have 108 Navamsas in the zodiac of 12 signs. Draw a circle,

divide into 12 signs and each sign into 9 navamsas. Place the planets in the

circle and you will see what I'm saying. Count 64 Navamsas from the Moon

first and then from the lagna. You will find that this will always correspond

to the 4th house from the Moon in the Navamsa and the 4th house from the

lagna in the Navamsa. DO NOT COUNT IN D-9. D-9 IS NOT THE ZODIAC.

Most people get confused by this the first time. You are counting in the

Navamsa (D-9) and that is the mistake. Navamsas are 3 degrees 20 minute

portions of the zodiac and are to be counted in the natural zodiac. Since D-1

is the longitudinal representation of the zodiac, then counting is in D-1.

Other comments are below.

Hope this helps.

Brendan

TOTAL NAVAMSAS IN D-1 IS 108!!! D-9 HAS 12 HOUSES WITH PLANETARY POSITIONS

DERIVED FROM D-1.

YOU MUST COUNT THIS IN D-1 AND YOU WILL SEE IT TO BE CORRECT! NAVAMSAS ARE

BASED ON 3 degrees 20 minutes AND THERE ARE 108 IN THE ZODIAC. COUNT IN D-1

AND NOT IN D-9.

THE 64TH NAVAMSA IS COUNTED FROM THE MOON IN THE NATURAL ZODIAC AND IT

corresponds TO THE 4TH HOUSE FROM THE MOON IN D-9. IT IS CORRECT BUT YOU NEED

TO DO IT IN D-1 TO FIGURE IT OUT.

FORGET ABOUT COUNTING IN D-9 IN DOING THIS. IT IS A COINCIDENCE IN YOUR D-9

THAT SAG IS THE 8TH FROM MOON AS YOUR MOON IS VARGOTTAMA.

Namaste Brendan,

Let me ask a few few questions on the paragraph you were kind enough to submit.

You wrote: "The 64th Navamsa from the Moon corresponds to the 4th house from the Moon in D-9. E.g., in your chart your Moon is in the 5th Navamsa of Taurus which is Taurus. The 8th from your Moon is Sagittarius and therefore your 64th Navamsa from the Moon is the 5th Navamsa of Sag = Leo (4th house from Moon in Navamsa). So the lord of your 64th Navamsa from the Moon is the Sun."

1. Total Navamsas for D-9 = 108 correct? ( 9 X 12 =108)

2. "The 64th Navamsa from the Moon corresponds to the 4th house from the Moon in D-9" The forth house from Chandra in my D9 = Leo. But if you do the math it is NOT the 64th from Chandra i.e. 4 signs X 9 = 36 Navamsas distant.Question: Why do you mention the 8th from Chandra if we have already established that the the 4th from Chandra = Leo and therefore = the 64 Navamsa? ( yet mathematically does not =64 Navamsa in distance)

3. "The 8th from your Moon is Sagittarius ( Yes, I see this, both in D1 and D9) and therefore your 64th Navamsa from the Moon is the 5th Navamsa of Sag = Leo (4th house from Moon in Navamsa)."

Question: I do not get what you are telling me here... how does Sag=Leo? Unless you are telling me the lord of that navamsa is Ravi? Can you show me the math? I would assume to find the 64th navamsa it equals 7 signs ( or 7x9 =63) + 5 navamsas from Chandra's position in Taurus + 1 more navamsa for a total of 69 navamsas from Chandra.

If 8 signs it's 8 X 9 = 72 Navamsa and you over shoot the 64th?

Pls advise on where my understanding requires alignment....thx

When malefics transit this critical point in a chart, it can cause suffereing, ill health, death, obstacles, etc. The lord of the 64th Navamsa also has some maleficence and this should be taken into account when evaluating the nature of planets and their intention for the native.Planets in the 64th Navamsa, from lagna or Moon, can also be problematic and thisshould also be taken into account.The 64th Navamsa from the Moon corresponds to the 4th house from the Moon in D-9. E.g., in your chart your Moon is in the 5th navamsa of Taurus which is Taurus. The 8th from your Moon is Sagittatius and therefore your 64th navamsa from the Moon is the 5th navamsa of Sag = Leo (4th house from Moon in Navamsa). So the lord of your 64th Navamsa from the Moon is the Sun.You can also see the 64th Navamsa from the lagna in same way.Regards,Brendan> Namaste,> Can someone give me insight on this i.e. 64th Navamsa.
