Ashtakavarga

A system of benefic points (bindus) that each planet and the lagna give to the signs, used to judge transits and the strength of signs.

How this site calculates it

The Parashari tables: each of the seven planets has a Bhinnashtakavarga of bindus from eight contributors (seven planets and the lagna); the Sarvashtakavarga of a sign is their sum (337 in all).
