    Secrets of Hora Chart

    What is the Hora Chart in Indian Astrology?

    In Indian astrology, the Hora Chart is one of the most important divisional charts that offers deep insights into an individual’s financial status and wealth accumulation throughout their life. It is derived from the Janma Kundali (birth chart) and is used to further analyze the planetary positions with respect to financial aspects. This chart plays a crucial role in predicting the outcomes of various Dashas, transits, and yogas that influence one’s material wealth.

    The Hora Chart is based on the planetary hour system and is often used to assess the financial condition and the potential for wealth in a person’s life.

    Unlock the Secrets of Time: Understanding the Hora System in Astrology

    In the ancient science of astrology, Hora is a unique concept that focuses on the division of time during the course of a day. It is derived from the Sanskrit word “Hora,” which refers to the time period during which a specific planet governs. This knowledge has been used by astrologers to understand the subtle influences of time and planets, enabling individuals to make the most of favorable hours and avoid unfavorable ones. By mastering the Hora system, one can align their actions with cosmic rhythms for better outcomes.

    What is Hora?

    Hora is the measurement of time, divided into 24 parts, each lasting approximately one hour. The system is based on the principle that different planets govern different hours of the day and night. These planetary hours are not fixed and vary based on the position of the Sun, meaning that the duration of a Hora can change with each day due to the varying length of daylight and nighttime hours.

    How Does the Hora System Work?

    A day in the Hora system is divided into 12 hours of daytime (Din Maan) and 12 hours of nighttime (Ratri Maan). Each hour is dedicated to one of the seven classical planets:

    1. Sun (Sunday)
    2. Moon (Monday)
    3. Mars (Tuesday)
    4. Mercury (Wednesday)
    5. Jupiter (Thursday)
    6. Venus (Friday)
    7. Saturn (Saturday)

    The Cycle of Hora

    The cycle begins from the Sun Hora (usually at sunrise), followed by the planetary lords of the day in a specific sequence. For example, on a Sunday, the first Hora is ruled by the Sun, the second by Venus, the third by Mercury, and so on, with the cycle repeating itself until the next sunrise.

    Example of a Sunday:

    • 1st Hora: Sun
    • 2nd Hora: Venus
    • 3rd Hora: Mercury
    • 4th Hora: Moon
    • 5th Hora: Saturn
    • 6th Hora: Jupiter
    • 7th Hora: Mars
    • 8th Hora: Sun
    • and so on…

    Benefits of the Hora System

    The Hora system can be used for various aspects of life, especially when planning significant activities. When you know which planet governs a specific time, you can take advantage of its positive influence. Some key benefits include:

    1. Choosing the Right Time for Activities:
      Each planet has its own set of qualities. For example:
      • Sun Hora is ideal for leadership, authority, and self-expression.
      • Venus Hora is best for luxury, relationships, and artistic endeavors.
      • Saturn Hora can be beneficial for hard work, discipline, and long-term planning.
    2. Timing Financial Activities:
      The Hora Chart is often used to time activities related to wealth and prosperity. For example, performing financial transactions during Jupiter Hora might bring success, while doing so during Saturn Hora could lead to delays or obstacles.
    3. Increasing Personal Success:
      Aligning important personal tasks (like job interviews, starting a business, or making decisions) with favorable Hora timings can enhance your chances of success. By aligning your actions with the influence of the planets, you synchronize with cosmic energy.
    4. Strengthening Relationships:
      By choosing the right Hora for communication and bonding, you can enhance your relationships with others. For example, Venus Hora is excellent for romantic or creative endeavors, making it a great time for dates, artistic projects, or making amends in relationships.
    5. Better Health and Wellness:
      The Hora system can be applied to improving health by choosing the right times for physical activities or seeking medical treatment. Moon Hora is considered beneficial for emotional well-being, while Mars Hora can boost your energy for physical workouts.

    Mastering the Hora System

    Mastering the Hora system involves understanding both the planetary influence and the exact timing of each Hora. Here are a few ways to start applying Hora wisdom in your daily life:

    1. Track Hora Timing:
      Using Hora charts or apps designed to calculate planetary hours for your location, you can track the timing of each Hora accurately and plan your activities accordingly.
    2. Understand Planetary Qualities:
      Each planet is associated with specific energies and traits. Understanding these qualities allows you to take full advantage of each Hora. For example, Jupiter Hora is associated with wisdom, spirituality, and expansion, while Mars Hora is linked to energy, assertiveness, and courage.
    3. Align Activities with Planetary Strengths:
      Plan your important activities like meetings, creative projects, or travel around the hours when the relevant planet is in power. For example:
      • Mercury Hora: Ideal for communication, business, and intellectual work.
      • Mars Hora: Best for initiating new projects, sports, or taking bold action.
      • Venus Hora: A great time for love, art, and socializing.

    Conclusion: Harnessing the Power of Hora

    The Hora system holds the key to unlocking the potential of time itself. By understanding the division of time and aligning your actions with the governing planets, you can make better decisions, avoid mistakes, and enhance your life experiences. Mastering the Hora chart is like learning to navigate the cosmic flow of time, ensuring that every moment works in your favor.

    When you know exactly how to use the influence of each Hora, you unlock the secrets of time, making every action count. It’s not just about timing—it’s about synching with the natural rhythms of the universe.

    Start applying the Hora wisdom in your life today and discover how this ancient tool can empower you in all aspects of life—whether it’s your career, relationships, or personal growth.

    Types of Divisional Charts (Shodashvarg Kundalis)

    In Vedic astrology, there are 16 types of divisional charts or Shodashvarg Kundalis, and each of these charts gives insights into different aspects of a person’s life. However, some astrologers focus on six types of charts, called Shadvarg Kundalis. Here are the 16 divisional charts:

    1. Janma Lagna (Kshetra)
    2. Hora
    3. Dreshkan
    4. Saptamansha
    5. Navamsha
    6. Dwada-shansha
    7. Trishansha
    8. Chaturthansha
    9. Dashansha
    10. Shodashansha
    11. Vinshansha
    12. Chaturvishansha
    13. Bhansha
    14. Khavedansha
    15. Akshavedansha
    16. Shashtyansha

    Understanding the Hora Chart:

    The Hora Chart specifically focuses on the financial prospects of an individual throughout their life. It divides the day into 24 equal parts known as Horai, and each Hora is ruled by one of the seven planets. The Hora Chart gives astrologers a closer view of a person’s wealth and prosperity by analyzing the positioning of planets in specific signs.

    Hora Chart Division:

    1. Divisions by Zodiac Signs:
      The Hora Chart is divided into two parts: Leo and Cancer.
    2. Male Rashis (Male Signs):
      • Aries (Mesha), Gemini (Mithuna), Leo (Simha), Libra (Tula), Sagittarius (Dhanu), and Aquarius (Kumbha) are classified as male Rashis.
      • The first 15 degrees of these male Rashis fall under the Leo Hora.
    3. Female Rashis (Female Signs):
      • Taurus (Vrishabha), Cancer (Karka), Virgo (Kanya), Scorpio (Vrishchika), Capricorn (Makara), and Pisces (Meena) are classified as female Rashis.
      • The first 15 degrees of these female Rashis fall under the Cancer Hora.
    4. Rashi Placement:
      • The next 15 degrees of the male Rashis are assigned to Cancer Hora, while the next 15 degrees of the female Rashis are assigned to Leo Hora.

    How to Read the Hora Chart:

    1. Hora Lagna:
      From the Kshetra Chart (birth chart), the Hora Lagna can be found by analyzing the degrees of all planets, including the Lagna (ascendant). The Hora Lagna’s placement and the positioning of planets within the chart are then evaluated to derive key insights into the person’s financial future.
    2. Significance of Hora Chart:
      The Hora Chart is particularly used to predict financial status, focusing on wealth accumulation and losses. Astrologers often assess the Lord of the 2nd House and other key planets in this chart to gain insights into one’s capacity to generate wealth.

    Why is the Hora Chart Important?

    The Hora Chart is often studied to understand how planetary placements affect an individual’s financial conditions throughout their life. It helps astrologers pinpoint the strength or weakness of a person’s financial situation based on the planet’s positions in the Hora.

    For instance:

    • Strong planetary positions in the Hora chart can signal a good financial future.
    • Malefic placements in certain houses (like the 12th house) might indicate financial challenges or hidden expenses.

    Conclusion:

    The Hora Chart is a critical component of Vedic astrology, particularly useful for evaluating an individual’s financial well-being and predicting wealth-related outcomes. It is derived from the Janma Kundali and gives further insights into an individual’s wealth potential based on planetary placements. Understanding the Hora Chart helps astrologers predict financial success or constraints, guiding individuals toward making informed decisions about their material future.

    Points Allocation Based on Planetary Placement in Hora Chart

    In Vedic astrology, the Hora Chart is a crucial tool used to assess the influence of planets on an individual’s wealth, prosperity, and financial success. The placement of planets in specific Rashis (zodiac signs) during the 24 Horas of the day determines how beneficial or malefic each planet’s influence will be. Here’s how astrologers allocate points to planets based on their placement:

    Points Distribution for Planetary Placement:

    1. 5 Points: For Exalted Planets
      • Example: Jupiter placed in Cancer Hora (Jupiter is exalted in Cancer).
    2. 4 Points: For the Lord of the Hora
      • Example: Moon in Cancer Hora or Sun in Leo Hora.
    3. 3 Points: For a planet in a Friendly Hora (in a sign ruled by a friendly planet).
      • Example: Venus in Taurus Hora (since Venus rules Taurus).
    4. 2 Points: For a planet in a Neutral Hora
      • Example: Mercury in Gemini Hora (Mercury is neutral in Gemini).
    5. 1 Point: For a planet in an Enemy’s Hora
      • Example: Mars in Cancer Hora (Mars is in its debilitation sign in Cancer).
    6. 0 Points: For a planet in Debilitated Rashis
      • Example: Mars in Cancer Hora (Mars is debilitated in Cancer).

    Key Observations for Planetary Influence in Hora Chart:

    • Positive Signs:
      • Male Planets (Sun, Jupiter, Mars) in Leo.
      • Female Planets (Moon, Venus) in Cancer.
      • Five or more planets in Cancer is considered an auspicious sign for prosperity.
    • Negative Signs:
      • Five or more planets in Leo suggest financial constraints and challenges.

    House Placement in the Hora Chart:

    • Lord of your D1/Lagna Chart:
      • If the Lagna Lord (ascendant lord) is placed in the 1st or 2nd house of your Hora chart, it indicates favorable outcomes related to wealth and personal growth.
      • Negative: If the Lagna Lord is placed in the 12th house, it may signify hidden expenses or loss.
    • Lord of the 2nd House:
      • Favorable: If placed in the 2nd or 11th house, it signals good wealth accumulation and prosperity.
      • Negative: If placed in the 1st, 5th, 8th, or 12th houses, it may point to financial challenges or losses.
    • Presence of Planets in the 12th House:
      • Negative: If many planets are in the 12th house, it may indicate financial struggles or expenses.
      • Positive: If many planets are in the 2nd or 1st house, it is a good sign for financial prosperity and self-sufficiency.

    Hora of the Sun vs. Hora of the Moon:

    • Hora of the Sun (Daytime): Strong planets include Sun, Venus, and Jupiter.
    • Hora of the Moon (Night-Time): Strong planets include Moon, Mars, and Saturn.

    Special Considerations for Planetary Points:

    • Mars and Jupiter in Cancer Hora: These planets do not receive any points for being in a friendly sign because they are debilitated in Cancer.
    • Double the Points: If a planet or Lagna is placed in the same type of Rashi (male or female), double the points for its influence.
    • Half Points: If a planet or Lagna is in the opposite type of Rashi (male/female), reduce the points by half.

    Understanding Wealth Indicators:

    • Power of the 2nd House: If the 2nd House is strong in the Hora chart, particularly for a Cancer Lagna, it indicates a high potential for wealth accumulation.
    • Power of the 12th House: If the 12th House is strong for a Leo Lagna, it suggests financial constraints or hidden expenses.

    When Points in Both Houses are Equal:

    If both the 2nd House and 12th House have equal points, the native might experience fluctuating financial conditions, with both gains and losses occurring simultaneously.

    Final Thoughts:

    By analyzing the points allocation in the Hora Chart, astrologers can derive key insights about an individual’s financial destiny, prosperity, and potential challenges. This comprehensive analysis helps in understanding the balance between benefic and malefic influences in one’s life, guiding individuals toward making informed decisions regarding their wealth, career, and personal growth.

    How do you see a hora?
    There are 12 parts of 1 hour each from sunrise to sunset. Similarly, there are 12 parts from sunset to sunrise. In this way, we get 24 Horas. In the calculation of Hora of a day, the first Hora of that day will be of the day lord and the next Hora will be of 6th day from the day lord.

    How to Study the Hora Chart in Vedic Astrology

    The Hora Chart (or D-2 chart) is a powerful tool in Vedic astrology used to analyze wealth, prosperity, and financial stability in a person’s life. Studying the Hora Chart requires understanding the planetary hours, or Horas, that govern different times of the day.

    What is a Hora?

    In Vedic astrology, Hora is a unit of time — each day is divided into 24 Horas, each lasting approximately one hour. However, this is not based on the clock hour but on the duration between sunrise to next day’s sunrise, which can vary depending on location and season.

    Each Hora is ruled by a planet. There are seven planetary lords (Grahas) who govern the days of the week:

    • ☀️ Sunday – Sun (Ravi)
    • 🌙 Monday – Moon (Chandra)
    • 🔥 Tuesday – Mars (Mangal)
    • 🧠 Wednesday – Mercury (Budh)
    • 📿 Thursday – Jupiter (Guru)
    • 💖 Friday – Venus (Shukra)
    • 🪨 Saturday – Saturn (Shani)

    These lords govern the sequence of Horas throughout the day and night.

    How is a Hora Chart Divided?

    The 24-hour period is divided into:

    • 12 Day Horas: From sunrise to sunset
    • 12 Night Horas: From sunset to next day’s sunrise

    Since sunrise and sunset times change daily, the length of each Hora also changes. So Hora timings should ideally be calculated using accurate local sunrise and sunset times.

    Hora Sequence & Planetary Rulership

    The first Hora of any day belongs to the Lord of that weekday. The remaining Horas follow a fixed cyclic order of planets based on this 7-planet sequence:

    Sun → Venus → Mercury → Moon → Saturn → Jupiter → Mars

    To find the next Hora, move 6 places ahead in the planetary sequence.

    Example (Sunday):

    • 1st Hora: Sun (Sunday lord)
    • 2nd Hora: Venus (6th from Sun)
    • 3rd Hora: Mercury
    • 4th Hora: Moon
    • 5th Hora: Saturn
    • 6th Hora: Jupiter
    • 7th Hora: Mars
    • 8th Hora: Sun (cycle repeats)

    This pattern continues till the next sunrise.

    Importance of Calculating Hora

    Studying the Hora chart helps determine:

    • Which planetary Hora is active at a given time
    • Best time to perform tasks (career, health, money, relationships, etc.)
    • Favorable hours to start important work
    • Planetary strength and influence on wealth matters based on Hora placement

    Annamayya Keerthana Keerthana Meaning:

    In this song, Annamacharya praises the beauty and charm of Lord Venkateshwara. When the Lord walks
    gracefully, the camphor on his body sprinkles and as the goddess sits on his lap it seems as if he is covered
    by moonlight. The glittering ornaments worn by the Lord join the charisma of the goddess and seem like a
    lightning joins hands with the glitter and charisma.

    Annamayya composed over 32000 keerthana’s, of which only a third are known today. That is, just 12000 of them that are even remotely known, while only 800 are actively practiced.

    According to the Puranas, there are around 66 crore theerthams scattered across the Tirumala hills. These sacred water bodies are classified into four categories based on their spiritual benefits:

    • Dharmaratiprada Theerthams – Bestowers of righteousness
    • Gnanaprada Theerthams – Providers of knowledge
    • Bhakthivairagyaprada Theerthams – Enhancers of devotion and detachment
    • Mukthiprada Theerthams – Granters of ultimate liberation (Moksha)

    One of the most revered among them is the Tumburu Theertham. It is believed that Devas (celestial beings) used to take a holy dip in this sacred waterfall during the auspicious Abhijit Lagnam (a powerful muhurtham or time slot). Taking a bath during this period is believed to cleanse one of sins and bring spiritual merit.

While a few theerthams like Chakra Theertham, Japali Theertham, and Akasa Ganga are relatively easier to access, many others remain hidden gems known mainly to locals and forest guides.

  • Tirumala Temple Secrets: Hidden Rituals of TTD You Didn’t Know

    TTD Tirumala Tirupati Devasthanams Temple www.StotraVeda.com
    TTD Tirumala Tirupati Devasthanams Temple

    The Divine Legacy of Lord Venkateswara at Tirumala: History, Rituals, and Vaikhanasa Agama Practices

    Lord Sri Venkateswara, revered by many names including Srinivasa, Balaji, and Venkatachalapati, made Tirumala Hills his eternal abode over 5,000 years ago. Before the arrival of Lord Venkateswara, it was Lord Varahaswami who sanctified the Tirumala region with his divine presence. Since ancient times, generations of devotees have contributed to the construction and expansion of the Tirumala Temple complex, which now spans an area of 16.2 acres atop the sacred Seshachalam Hills.

    The Divine Manifestation of Lord Venkateswara

    According to sacred legends, Lord Venkateswara manifested as a granite idol in front of his two consorts during a divine episode centered around his celestial remarriage. Witnessing this profound transformation, Lord Brahma and Lord Shiva appeared to enlighten the goddesses—Lakshmi and Padmavathi—about the Lord’s divine mission: to reside on Tirumala’s Seven Hills and uplift humanity from the hardships of Kali Yuga.

    Eventually, both Goddess Lakshmi and Goddess Padmavathi expressed their desire to remain with the Lord eternally. As a result, they too became stone idols—Lakshmi resting on the left side of the Lord’s chest, and Padmavathi on the right—symbolizing divine unity and eternal devotion.

    TTD and the Daily Worship Traditions

    The Tirumala Tirupati Devasthanams (TTD), the administrative body managing the Tirumala temple, follows strict religious protocols rooted in the Vaikhanasa Agama Shastra. These sacred scriptures govern the daily Arjitha Sevas (ritual services), allowing Grihastas (devotees) to actively participate in divine worship, reinforcing the principle of collective spiritual engagement.

    What is Vaikhanasa Agama?

    The Vaikhanasa Agama is one of the most respected scriptures in Vaishnava tradition, composed by Sage Vikhanasa. It is divided into two essential parts:

    1. Temple Rituals: Prescribes detailed procedures for performing rituals and worship of the presiding deity.
    2. Priestly Purification: Outlines strict purification processes required for priests to be eligible to serve in the temple.

    This Agama is distinct for its in-depth descriptions of ritual practices, both in public temples and private households. The knowledge was further disseminated by four great disciples of Sage Vikhanasa—Marichi, Bhrigu, Kashyapa, and Atri—across ancient India.

    Vaikhanasa Agama in Daily Worship at Tirumala

    In alignment with Vaikhanasa traditions, TTD conducts regular sevas—daily, weekly, monthly, and annual—at the Sri Venkateswara Swamy Temple, continuing an unbroken legacy for centuries. The Agama prescribes six pujas a day, each with a unique spiritual and societal purpose:

    • Prathyusham: For promoting health and well-being
    • Pratahkala: Encourages meditation and homas (sacred fire rituals)
    • Madhyahna: Supports governance and social order
    • Aparahna: Protects against negativity and evil
    • Sayankala: Enhances agricultural prosperity
    • Nisi Aradhana: Aids in the nurturing of cattle and livestock

    Though six pujas are ideal, the Vaikhanasa Agama also accepts a minimum of one puja daily:

    “Shatkalam va Thrikalam va Dwikalam
    Ekakalam va Pujanam Deva Devasya”

    Current Ritual Practices at Tirumala

    At present, three primary pujas are performed daily in Tirumala:

    1. Morning Puja with Thomala Seva – open to the public
    2. Midday Puja (Madhyahna) – a shortened version
    3. Night Puja (Ekanta Seva) – a private ceremony involving the archakas (priests) and temple assistants

    These rituals reflect the deep spiritual rhythm that has sustained Sri Venkateswara’s temple as one of the most visited and sacred pilgrimage sites in the world.

    Arjitha Sevas:

    Arjitha Sevas at Tirumala Temple – Daily Ritual Services for Lord Venkateswara

    Every day, a sacred sequence of Arjitha Sevas (paid ritual services) is performed for the presiding deity of Lord Sri Venkateswara at the Tirumala Venkateswara Temple, following centuries-old traditions under the Vaikhanasa Agama Shastra.

    Daily Arjitha Sevas to the Main Deity

    The day begins with the revered Suprabhatam Seva, a ritualistic awakening of the Lord, followed by:

    • Thomala Seva – Offering of flower garlands
    • Archana Seva – Recitation of the Lord’s 1,008 names
    • Ekantha Seva – The final ritual of the day (not open to pilgrims), marking the Lord’s rest

    These sevas are conducted for the main deity inside the sanctum sanctorum of the temple.

    Arjitha Sevas to Malayappa Swamy (Utsava Murthy)

    After the Archana Seva, a series of special ritual services are performed for the Utsava Murthy, also known as Lord Malayappa Swamy—the processional form of Lord Venkateswara. These include:

    • Kalyanotsavam – A symbolic divine wedding ceremony
    • Arjitha Brahmotsavam – A condensed version of the grand Brahmotsavam
    • Dolotsavam – The Lord is seated on a swing and gently rocked
    • Vasantotsavam – A spring festival celebrated with joy and devotion
    • Sahasra Deepalankara Seva – A mesmerizing evening ritual performed under the glow of a thousand lamps

    These sevas offer devotees an opportunity to witness and participate in the divine service to Lord Venkateswara, deepening their spiritual connection and earning sacred blessings.

    Nakshatra Suktam|Nakshatreshti

    Nakshatra Suktam/Nakshatreshti in English:

    Each Nakshatra has its particular power or Shakti. These are the powers of the Devatas or deities that rule over and define them. This is a special teaching that derives from an ancient Vedic text called Taittiriya Brahmana.

    Nakshatras are asterisms or lunar mansions and Suktam is a hymn in praise of an intended deity.Per Yajurveda there are 28 nakshatras including Abhijit(from Krittika to Bharani).

    The Nakshatra Suktam contains 30 mantras (28 for stars,1 for Pournima and 1 for Amavasya).

    Make sure the daily recitation of Nakshatra Suktam is for the peace and happiness of Nakshatra:

    Before starting “chanting” or repeating mentally (manasa japa) a mantra, you should learn basically the rules for correct pronunciation of sanskrit letters and combination of them. So you should know the differences from a short vocal or a long one (u for example has a short form and can form the hu.m seed-mantra also has a long form and can form huu.m mantra, which denotes another form of energy or deity).

    You can use Velthuis system above for transliteration to mark such a distinctive vowel use. Then there are combinations of vowels like a+u=o, a+i=e in some mantra. Then there are other consonants and semi-vowels. After you have this basic knowledge (which contains visargah, used as last sign in some mantra, and .m used also in the end of some common seed-mantra) you can start practicing.

    Tips on using Mantras For Hair Growth:

    • Start with one or two mantras at a time and see what works for you.
    • Begin with intention – visualize the hair or hair style that you would like to have.
      The first few times focus on the mantra and have it fixed it your mind. See what comes to mind as you focus on the affirmation. If anything negative arises – go there and question it. There may be something there that is holding not only our hair regrowth back, but perhaps other parts of your life.
    • Once your mantra presents you with clear and positive images, let go of the images and focus only on the repetition. You may find it easier to use your breath while repeating affirmations as you get started.
    • When you are comfortable with your mantras, use them at different intervals throughout the day, repeating at least twice each time.
    • As you become more experienced using affirmations, they will become automatic. You may find yourself driving in the car or the grocery store and suddenly take notice of what is going on in your head.
    • Once you have set the intention of your mantra, it will work on its own speed – you just have to be mindful to use the repetition at different times throughout the day. Remember, in order for an mantra to work, you must first set the intention, focus on it and then let it go and believe that it will manifest.
    • Use these 4 Word Mantras (affirmations)
    • I have healthy hair
    • Shiny, long, silky hair
    • My hair is growing
    • My hair is long (curly, healthy, use your own adjective here)
