Re-defining Tajaka Varshaphal Charts
(Annual Solar Return Charts)

Introduction
Annual solar return charts based on Sun's return every year to his exact natal position are popular in Vedic and
western astrology.
Divisional charts of Tajaka varshaphal never worked with any consistency for this author with Lahiri ayanamsa.
The discovery of Pushya-paksha ayanamsa and refinement of the definitions of some divisional charts based on
an independent interpretation of Parasara and resulting experimentation, made divisional charts work
reasonably well with Tithi Pravesha charts, but not with Tajaka varshaphal charts.
When this author broke from tradition, went back to a teaching of Maharshi Parasara in “Vishnu Purana” on
solar years and re-defined Tajaka varshaphal chart, divisional charts of Tajaka varshaphal started showing more
consistent patterns. The new definition will be shared in this article with examples.
Acknowledgment
The basic idea of this research was inspired by a writing of Sri K.N. Rao, albeit in a different context. In his
article “Jaimini Chara Dasa – My approach – 2” in “Journal of Astrology” (please see the internet link
http://www.journalofastrology.com/article.php?article_id=317), he wrote in 2010 November that a particular
pratyantardasa ended on Aug 17th as per his calculations and on Aug 18th as per “Jagannatha Hora” software. He
showed that his calculation explained the event better.
Being also the author of the software in question, this author took a look into the dicrepancy. He noticed that Sri
K.N. Rao was using mean tropical solar year (365.242 days), while the default dasa year definition in the
software (which can be changed by the users) was true sidereal solar year (365.256 days). The gap accumulates
every year and can change dasa dates by a day as one gets older!
This made the author think of Tajaka varshaphal charts. Traditionally, they are are based on sidereal solar year
(i.e. Sun returning every year to his natal position in the sidereal zodiac). This author questioned it and
experimented. That is how this research started.
Solar Calendar
A solar year is of 365.242 days (tropical) or 365.256 days (sidereal). Tropical solar year is the time period in
which Sun traverses the tropical zodiac once. Sidereal solar year is the time period in which Sun traverses the
sidereal zodiac once.
For casting the varshaphal chart every year, astrologers now-a-days use sidereal solar year, i.e. they find when
Sun returns to his natal sidereal longitude. However, this is inconsistent with the teachings of Maharshi
Parasara to Maitreya in “Vishnu Purana” chapter 2.8.
Maharshi Pararsara taught Maitreya that a solar year consists of 2 ayanas and that each ayana consists of 3 ritus
(seasons).
This link to seasons clearly points to tropical zodiac. A solar year based on tropical zodiac (i.e. the
time Sun takes to complete exactly one rotation around the tropical zodiac) is tied to seasons.
For example, when Sun enters tropical Aries, day and night are of equal length and it is spring. When
Sun enters tropical Cancer, day is the longest and it is summer (in northern hemisphere). When Sun
enters tropical Libra, day and night are of equal length and it is autumn. When Sun enters tropical
Capricorn, day is the shortest and it is winter (in northern hemisphere).
If we take the sidereal zodiac, it is not tied to seasons. When Sun enters sidereal Aries every year, he
will be in the vicinity of particular stars associated with sidereal Aries, but the season changes over the
years!
Not stopping at that, Maharshi Parasara explicitly taught Maitreya that Uttarayana starts when Sun enters
Capricorn and the day length is the smallest then. When Uttarayana ends, Sun leaves Gemini and enters
Cancer and the day is is the longest then. That makes it obvious that Pararsara is referring to tropical signs
here!
Sidereal vs Tropical Zodiac
As mentioned above, Maharshi Parasara clearly used tropical zodiac when defining solar years in “Vishnu
Purana”. When teaching divisional charts in “Brihat Parasara Hora Sastram”, he taught how nakshatras are
aligned to rasis and how navamsas map to quarters of naksatras. So he used sidereal zodiac there.
This author's conclusion is that both tropical and sidereal zodiacs are needed:
• Sidereal zodiac: Used for all matters related to space, i.e. definition of rasi chart and divisional charts
• Tropical zodiac: Used for all matters related to time, i.e. definition of months, seasons, ayanas and
years.
Tajaka Varshaphal Definition
Tajaka varshaphal chart is cast every year when Sun is exactly at the same tropical longitude as at birth.
Judgment
A Tajaka varshaphal chart can be judged just like the natal chart, except that it is effective for just one year.
Rasi chart can be used along with all divisional charts. One need not use various Tajaka methods for judging
this chart and can use standard Vedic astrology methods in rasi and divisional charts.
Rasi Chart vs Divisional Charts: Rasi chart is like a combination of all floormaps of all floors in a multi-storey
building, while divisional charts are like different floors. If the northeast corner has something in the combined
floormap, it may be in any floor. Similarly, if the 5th house is strong in rasi chart, it may show childbirth,
promotion in job, academic distinction, successful mantra sadhana etc and we can check the 5th house in D-7, D-
10, D-24, D-20 etc (respectively) for further insights. Indications in rasi chart may be weak, but have to be
strong in the corresponding divisional chart.
The writeup “Unified Nakshatra Dasa Approach” at http://www.vedicastrologer.org/articles defines a method
of picking the best nakshatra dasa in a chart. This works well in natal charts and Tithi Pravesha charts, but does
not work well in Tajaka varshaphal charts. This author has not yet found a dasa system that works reliably.
Replicating Calculations
You can download “Jagannatha Hora” software from http://www.VedicAstrologer.org/jh and select Pushya-
paksha ayanamsa. In addition, you will need to set some divisional chart calculation options to follow this
write-up. Some divisional charts are computed incorrectly by people now-a-days.
In the main menu of “Jagannatha Hora” software (version 7.67 or higher), you can select “Preferences”,
“Related to Calculations” and “Set Calculation Options as recommended by author”, to set divisional chart
calculations as used in this write-up.
Comparison
We will see a few examples that contrast:
(a) The old definition (return to natal sidereal longitude), Lahiri ayanamsa & standard definitions of
divisionsl charts
(b) The new definition (return to natal tropical longitude), Pushya-paksha ayanamsa & reformed
definitions of divisional charts
Example 1: Academic Distinction
Birthdata: 1970 April 4, 5:50:40 pm (IST), Machilipatnam, India (81e08, 16n10)
Event: He stood first in his state in 12th grade exams with a record score in May 1987 and also got admission to
Indian Institute of Technology.
Education is seen from siddhamsa (D-24) chart. Rasi & D-24 charts with the 2 approaches above are shown
below.
In the old rasi chart, the 5th house is not particularly strong, with 4th and 11th lord Mars in it. But lagna lord
aspects 5th and 5th lord is with 9th lord. There are some signs, but not strong. In the old D-24 chart, the 5th house
of distinction and recognition contains nodes. The 5th lord Mercury aspects the 5th house, but he is debilitated.
Lagna lord is weak in an adhisatru rasi. Overall, the chart does not strongly explain academic distinction.
In the new rasi chart, lagna lord is in 5th with 9th lord and gives a raja yoga. That 5th lord and yogakaraka Saturn
has 79% aspect on 5th house. The 5th house is quite strong. In the new D-24 chart, the lagna lord Jupiter is
exalted in the 5th house and that is a clear combination for academic success, recognition and fame. Lord Moon
is also placed in a mitra rasi. A functional benefic in the 8th house gives sudden results of a beneficial nature.
Example 2: Childbirth
Birthdata: 1970 October 5, 12:32:20 pm (IST), 80e21, 15n49
Event: He had a child in 2000 September.
Saptamsa (D-7) chart shows progeny. Rasi & D-7 charts using the 2 approaches are shown below.
In the old rasi chart, lagna lord is in 5th house, aspected by Jupiter. Though 5th lord is in an inimical sign and not
particularly strong, this can indicate childbirth. In the old D-7 chart, lagna lord Sun is in marana karaka sthana
in the 12th house. The 5th lord of children, Jupiter, is retrograde in an inimical sign and 5th house does not have
any strong associations. Overall, there are no clear indications of childbirth in the year.
In the new rasi chart, lagna lord Saturn is in 5th house (longitude-wise). Though debilitated, he is retrograde and
gets neecha bhanga. The 5th lord Venus is closely conjoined with 7th lord Moon (within 7º) and gives raja yoga.
Overall, 5th house is strong enough. In the new D-7 chart, lagna lord Moon and 5th lord (and yogakaraka) Mars
are in own signs. The other 5th lord Ketu is also strong in Pisces. With the strength of lagna lord and 5th lord, this
chart can very well explain childbirth in the year.
Example 3: Childbirth
Birthdata: 1972 May 14, 8:13:30 am (IST), Idar, India (73e00, 23n50)
Event: He had a child on 2004 May 22.
Saptamsa (D-7) chart shows progeny. Rasi & D-7 charts using the 2 approaches are shown below.
In the old rasi chart, 5th lord Jupiter is in lagna and aspects 5th house. That can indicate childbirth. In the old D-7
chart, lagna lord Venus is well-placed in the 9th house. Though 9th lord Mercury seems to aspect lagna, his
aspect is only 30% based on actual longitudes, i.e. Mercury at 29Ar07 is actually in the 8th house from lagna at
8Li00. Lagna contains Sun and Moon who are not strong. The 5th lord Saturn is in 12th house. There are no
strong indications of childbirth.
In the new rasi chart, lagna lord Saturn is in 5th house with yogakaraka Venus. The other lagna lord Rahu is with
5th lord Mercury. Lagna is aspected by Jupiter. Childbirth is quite possible. In the new D-7 chart, 5th lord Venus
is well-placed in lagna in an adhimitra rasi. The 5th house contains exalted 9th lord Saturn. Though lagna lord is
placed in 12th, he is in an adhimitra rasi. Strong 5th house and 5th lord can give a child during the year.
Example 4: Childbirth
Birthdata: 1975 July 13, 4:02 pm (IST), Eluru, India (81e06, 16n42)
Event: She had a child in 2004 May.
Saptamsa (D-7) chart shows progeny. Rasi & D-7 charts using the 2 approaches are shown below.
In the old rasi chart, lagna lord Saturn is with 5th lord Venus and that can show childbirth. But 5th lord Venus is
in 6th house, in marana karaka sthana. That is not too auspicious. In the old D-7 chart, lagna contains 9th lord
Sun and lagna lord is exalted, though placed in the 8th house. However, 5th lord Mars is in 6th. Overall, there are
no strong indications of childbirth.
In the new rasi chart, lagna lord Mercury is with exalted karaka Jupiter and aspects 5th house. The 5th lord is in
an adhimitra rasi with 9th lord. In the new D-7 chart, 5th lord Mercury and 7th lord Sun are closely conjoined,
giving a powerful raja yoga, and aspect 5th. Lagna lord Rahu and 9th lord Venus are together in 9th house. Raja
yogas involving all trine lords show fortunate events in this area of life during the year. A raja yoga involving
5th lord and their aspect on 5th house can explain childbirth.
More Examples
We have seen some comparisons of old vs new definitions. Now, we will use Pushya-paksha ayanamsa,
reformed definitions of divisional charts and the new definition of Tajaka varshaphal and see more examples.
Example 5: Childbirth
Birthdata: 1970 April 4, 5:50:40 pm (IST), Machilipatnam, India (81e08, 16n10)

D-7 chart, the 5th house is aspected by its lord Saturn. Lagna is aspected by an exalted planet (Sun) and
yogakaraka (Saturn). Lagna lord is in own house. Yogakaraka and 5th lord, Saturn, aspects lagna and lagna lord,
in addition to the 5th house. The strength and lagna and 5th house can show childbirth in the year.

lagna lord Sun and 5th lord Jupiter are conjoined in the 7th house and aspect lagna. In addition to this raja yoga,
the 5th house contains yogakaraka Mars. This is quite conducive to an auspicious event like childbirth.
Example 7: Childbirth

aspects 5th. In D-7 chart, lagna contains a raja yoga between 9th and 10th lords. Lagna lord is exalted in the 3rd
house, i.e. the 11th house of gains from the 5th house of children. Most importantly, 5th lord Jupiter is in 11th and
aspects the 5th house. This can show childbirth in the year.

Conclusion
Tajaka varshaphal charts or annual solar year charts are re-defined in this write-up based on the definition of
solar years taught by Maharshi Parasara to Maitreya in “Vishnu Purana”. Using Pushya-paksha ayanamsa,
reformed definitions of divisional charts and the new definition of Tajaka varshaphal charts, the efficacy of
these charts to see the major events in a year is illustrated in this write-up.
It is hoped that intelligent and sincere students and researchers of this divine subject will take this knowledge
further and contribute to a renaissance in Jyotish and other knowledge related to rishis.
