Many aspects in life are benefitted by the process of Kundali matching namely marriages, academics, relationship quotient, checking physical and mental compatibility, adjustments in the family and foreseeing the financial conditions.
Types of Kundali in Astrology:
Lagna Chart:
Lagna chart is a chart that is formed at the time of your birth. The process of forming this chart is the observation of the structure of the sky at the time of your birth.
Out of the 12 houses that are present in your birth chart, the sign that is present in the first house is known to be the one that was rising in the east.
Accordingly, each of the twelve houses contains a sign and they have a difference of two hours each while rising in the east, which is equally divided.
On the basis of the position of the planets in the heaven at the time of your birth, the planets are positioned in different signs and different houses.
Chandra Kundali:
Of the twelve houses the one containing the moon is known to be used for the preparation of the Chandra Kundali.
For understanding about the Chandra Kundali, it can be explained by assuming that if the moon is present in the 9th house then the 10th house will become the second house from the moon in this particular chart.
Moon is known to be the second fastest planet after the Ascendant. This makes this chart to be as important as the birth chart. On an average this chart changes its sign every 2.5 days. This chart should not be ignored as it is quite important for the process of Kundali Matching.
Navamsa Chart:
Navamsa is one of the most important charts and contains one-ninth division of a sign. After checking the planetary positions and their strength in the Lagna chart, the actual strength of the planets can be known.
The planet loses most of its strength if it is shown to be weak in the Rasi chart and elevated in the Navamsa chart, and vice versa.
Chalit Chart:
Professional help should be sought for understanding this chart completely and properly as it is one of the most complex charts.
The house position of the planets can be seen with the help of this chart. According to Hindu astrology, the positions or houses are very important.
If the first house begins at fifteen degrees before the Ascendant and ends fifteen degrees after the Ascendant, then the same pattern can be seen in the remaining eleven houses.
While there may also be cases where one part of your sign might fall in one house and the remaining in the other.
Process of Kundali Matching:
This process is carried out before declaring the tying of knot between individuals. For the process of Kundali matching the most important requirements are the Janam Kundalis of the girl and the boy.
