Fill in the birth details and tap Cast Annual Chart.

What is Varshaphala (annual horoscopy)?

Varshaphala (the Tajika system) reads the year ahead from the Varsha Pravesh — the exact moment the Sun returns to its natal position each year (the solar return). A fresh chart is cast for that instant at your birth place, and it governs the 12 months until the next birthday.

Muntha

The Muntha is a progressed point that starts on your birth ascendant and advances one sign every year. The house it occupies in the annual chart shows the year's main area of focus; its lord is a key player.

Lord of the Year (Varshesh)

Five office-bearers (Pancha-adhikari) compete to rule the year:

  • Munthesh — lord of the Muntha sign
  • Janma Lagnesh — lord of the birth ascendant
  • Varsha Lagnesh — lord of the annual ascendant
  • Tri-Rashi-Pati — triplicity lord of the annual ascendant (by day or night)
  • Dina-Ratri-Pati — lord of the Sun's sign (day) or the Moon's sign (night)

The strongest of these by Panchavargiya Bala (five-fold strength: Griha, Uchcha, Hadda, Drekkana and Navamsa) that also aspects the annual ascendant becomes the Varshesh. If none aspect the ascendant, the Muntha lord rules. The Varshesh's condition sets the tone of the year.

Mudda dashas, Sahams and period predictions

Within the solar year, Mudda Vimshottari and Mudda Yogini compress the classical dasha cycles into months and weeks, so you can see which planet is active when. The report also lists key Tajika Sahams (annual sensitive points) and a Muntha-based year summary, then walks each Mudda period with finance, career, family, love, health notes and simple remedies.

Varshaphala is best read alongside the birth chart and running Dasha — it focuses the natal promise onto a single year. Enter your exact birth time and pick the city so the annual ascendant and Muntha are accurate.
