Manual Drawing of Divisional Charts: A Beginner's Guide 💅🤗
Scroll down if you want to read the content directly 😁👇
The rules of drawing divisional charts can be found in books of your choice and online resources, my goal is to make it available to everyone in simple terms. I'll try to explain as easily as possible. I'm going to focus on ONLY some of the important divisional charts, I sincerely hope that I don't make any technical mistakes lacking concentration in the middle of writing, if you do find any error please do let me know so that I could change it, basics should be available to everyone and the information shouldn't be wrong.🤗💛
The general rules will be the same everywhere, only the simpler techniques they use to find out planet position in divisional charts may vary from astrologer to astrologer but the end results are the same. I will be telling you the way I learnt. If you are someone, who is interested in learning these basics, you're in for a ride, I hope you'll take a notebook and enjoy drawing out on your own at the end of this post!❤
Everything till now is blah-blah, Real content starts here lol-
Let's go in ascending order of important divisional charts!🤩
Male signs- Aries, Gemini, Leo, Libra, Sagittarius, Aquarius
Female signs- Taurus, Cancer, Virgo, Scorpio, Capricorn, Pisces
(Please make sure to remember the gender of the signs as it will be used in many varga chart making. It's just the alternative signs.)
If you have a planet in the MALE sign category, see the degrees, if it's between 0-15°---it will be placed in Leo house in D2 AND If it's between 15.1-30°---it will be placed in Cancer house in D2.💛💛
If you have a planet in the FEMALE sign category, see the degrees, if it's between 0-15°---it will be placed in Cancer house in D2 AND if it's between 15.1°-30°---it will be placed in Leo house in D2.💙💙
Let's see some examples - If you have a cancer venus at 26°, since it's a female sign and is in the second half of the degree division,Venus will be placed in Leo in D2. If you have an Aries Mars at 16°, since it's a male sign and is in the second half of the degree division, Mars will be placed in Cancer in D2. 😃😃
Follow the same rules and draw for all planets and ascendant to come up with a complete D2 chart. In D2, ALL planets+asc will be assigned ONLY in Cancer or Leo houses.🤗
All planets+asc will be placed in trikona (1,5,9) houses from its position. If a planet is within 0-10° in your D1, then it will be in the same sign in D3 too. 💖
Planet degrees in D1 and it's position in D3 -
0-10°----In same sign as D1
10.1-20°----In 5H when counted from it's position
20.1°-30°----In 9H when counted from it's position
Let's see some examples - If your Gemini Venus is at 12°, it will be placed in Libra (5H from its position). If your Taurus Mars is at 24°, it will be placed in Capricorn (9H from its position).❤
The same way, draw the entire D3 chart including all planets+asc.🤗
All planets+asc will be placed in Kendra houses (1,4,7,10) from its position.
Planet degrees in D1 and it's position in D4:
0-7.30°---In same sign as D1
7.31°-15°---In 4H when counted from it's position
15.1-22.30°---In 7H when counted from it's position
22.31-30°---In 10H when counted from it's position
Let's see some examples - Pisces sun at 21° will be placed in Virgo house (7H from Pisces) in D4. Sagittarius moon at 9° will be placed in Pisces house (4H from Sagittarius) in D4.💕
The same way, draw the entire D4 chart including all the planets+asc.🤗
If any planet is in the assigned MALE zodiac signs in the D1 chart, they get assigned between Aries to Virgo in the D6 chart. If any planet is in the FEMALE zodiac signs in the D1 chart, they get assigned between Libra to Pisces in the D6 chart.
In case of a planet in MALE sign-
0-5°---Assign In Aries house in D6
Let's see an example- If mars is in Leo at 6° in your D1 chart, you assign it in Taurus in D6. If Venus is in Aquarius at 22°, you assign it in Leo in D6. 💞
In case of a planet in FEMALE sign-
0-5°---Assign in Libra house in D6
10.1-15°---In Sagittarius
Let's see an example - If Jupiter is in Taurus at 29°, you assign it to Pisces in D6. 💕
Likewise, draw for all the planets+asc. 🤗
D9 and D10 drawings can be lil bit confusing, so I've prepared a table for D9 making in ms-word. The table is attached below 👇
If you notice, the column 'nakshatra ruling planets' are given in the order of nakshatra rulers beginning from Ashwini in Aries. (ie.) Ashwini (Ruler Ketu), Bharani (Ruler Venus), Krittika (Ruler Sun). Till Ashlesha (Ruler mercury), it's one round and again starts with Ketu's Nakshatra-Magha, followed by the same order again. 😃
Let's see an example - Rahu in Bharani (Pada 1) will be placed in the Leo sign in D9 as bharani is Venus ruled and in pada 1. Venus in Jyeshta (Pada 2) will be placed in the Capricorn sign in D9 as jyeshta is mercury ruled & in pada 2. ❤❤
Make use of this shortcut table to draw your own D9 chart manually, including all planets+asc.🤗
Each sign is divided into 10 parts, each sign has 30°, 30÷10=3. So the degrees are separated likewise and the position of the planet is allotted accordingly in D10.💜
Incase of a planet in MALE sign-
0-3°---In the same sign as D1
3.1-6°---In the next sign to it's D1 placement
Let's see an example - Sun in leo at 4°, it will be placed in a virgo house in D10. Let's see the complete 30° positions for this example placement below---👇👇
Leo sun between 0-3°---In Leo house
12.1-15°---In Sagittarius
This is how the same Leo sun placement in different degrees will be positioned in D10. Calculate accordingly for the planets situated in MALE signs in your D1 chart.💛
Now, In case of a planet in FEMALE sign-
This can be confusing, I'll give an example to make it easier. If you have a planet in a female sign, go to the 9H when counted from the planet placement and then apply the same degree rules as in male signs.
Let's see an example - Libra sun at 13° is the example placement. 9H when counted from Libra is the Cancer house. Since it's 13°, apply the degree theory now, 0-3 is in the same sign (which will be in cancer here), 3.1-6° is in Leo, 6.1-9° is in Virgo, 9.1-12° is in Libra, 12.1-15° is in Scorpio. So our Libra sun at 13° falls in the Scorpio house in D10.
By following the respective rules, allot the planets present in male and female signs accordingly in the D10 chart including asc.🤗
Okayyy, I'm done with explaining the simplified version of drawing some of the important divisional charts manually!! Hope u had a good read 😭❤ Note: Many websites can give wrong placements in divisional charts, so if you want to compare and make sure, be confident that you're using a good website to generate divisional charts.
