Frequently asked questions about Saptamsha (D7) Chart
What is a Saptamsha chart?
The seventh divisional chart (D7, Saptamsa). Each rasi is split into seven parts of about 4 degrees 17 minutes. Odd signs count those amsas from the same rasi; even signs count from the 7th. The twelve houses are read from the Saptamsha of the rising sign as house 1. Classical practice uses it for progeny and children.
Does a weak D7 mean I will never have children?
No. A planet that looks strong in the birth chart but falls to a weak Saptamsha tends to deliver less for children than it appears to; the reverse also holds. That is a modifier, not a veto, and it is not a fertility test. Dasha, the natal 5th lord and ordinary life still matter. For medical questions about conceiving, see a doctor.
How is this different from How many Children in Kundli?
How many Children in Kundli gives an indicative number or range from the D1 5th, Jupiter and a D7 snapshot. This page draws the Saptamsha itself: North and South charts, the D1-to-D7 table and BPHS kshetras. Baby Gender Prediction from Kundli is the odd-even boy-or-girl lean, and Child Birth Timing is a separate timing hint, not this chart.
How is this different from Kundli Maker or Navamsha?
Same D7 mathematics and the same D7 lagna as house 1. Kundli Maker is the full natal file - D1, every varga, dasha and strength tables. This page is only the Saptamsha. Navamsha (D9) is dharma and marriage. Dashamsha (D10) is career. Vimsopaka Bala includes D7 as one weighted varga in a 20-point score.
Is the 5th from D7 lagna how many children I will have?
It is the classical house of children in the progeny chart, not a count and not a medical reading. Read it with the natal 5th lord placed in D7, and with Jupiter as putra karaka. Same sign in D1 and D7 is an echo, not vargottama - that test is D1 = D9 on the Vargottama Planet Finder.
Why does the birth time matter so much?
Each Saptamsha is about 4 degrees 17 minutes of the rasi chart, so a few minutes can move Lagna or a graha into the next D7 sign and redraw every house. Pick the city from the dropdown and use the recorded time. If the time is rounded, treat the chart as provisional.
About Saptamsha (D7)
Saptamsha (D7, Saptamsa) divides each rasi into seven parts of about 4 degrees 17 minutes. Odd signs count the seven amsas from the same rasi; even signs count from the 7th. The chart is read from the Saptamsha of the rising sign as house 1. Classical practice uses it as the chart of progeny and children: a planet that looks strong in the birth chart but falls in a weak Saptamsha tends to deliver less for children than it appears to, and the reverse also holds. The 5th from this D7 lagna is the usual house of children in the progeny chart. This is not a fertility test and cannot predict whether you will have children. For medical questions, see a doctor.
This page is that Parashari D7: North and South Indian drawings, a D1-to-D7 table with amsa and BPHS saptamsha kshetra (Kshara to Jala), the natal 5th lord in D7, and Jupiter as putra karaka. It is the same Saptamsha as the D7 dropdown on Kundli Maker, focused here as its own calculator. It is not the How many Children in Kundli count (D1 5th, Jupiter and a D7 snapshot), not Baby Gender Prediction from Kundli, not Child Birth Timing, not the Navamsha (D9) Chart (dharma and marriage), not the Dashamsha (D10) Chart (career), and not Vimsopaka Bala (D7 as one weighted varga in a 20-point score).
Enter the exact birth time and pick the city from the dropdown. A few minutes can move Lagna or a graha into the next saptamsha and redraw the houses. Results are free to share or save as a PDF. Editorial pages are reviewed by Astro Arpita Nath.
