Moon in Aquarius 19o58’49” is at Satabhiçaj nakñatra. they start the Kälacakra daçä with the first daçä of the particular nakñatra pada of the Moon. This gives the starting daçä as Aries and this method is called the ‘Full cycle fraction method’. Some pandits do not take the trouble of calculating the daçä balance and this is no method . The balance of Sg daçä is known from the fraction of the nakñatra pada remaining at birth. This is commonly accepted by the Pandits in India as it is the pattern of the Vimçottari and other udu daçä. There are some who favor the starting of the daçä from the first daçä of the nakñatra pada and the portion elapsed would proportionately reduce the daçä balance of the first daçä. Therefore. This nakñatra pada maps into nine daçä (signs) and based on the lapsed portion of the Moon. 3.Copyright Pt. The balance of daçä is calculated in the same manner as the Vimçottari daçä and most pandits agree on this. In the example.it is sheer laziness. Determine the nakñatra and pada where the Moon is placed at the time of birth (or query). • Calculate the Kälacakra daçä by both methods in your chart and see which works better.

This method which is popular in North India completely violates the cakra including both savya/apasavya order as well as left/right foot showing utter lack of understanding of Kälacakra daçä.
