Click any planet name in the table above to jump to its card. Hover over sub-component labels for descriptions.
5 sub-components: Uchcha (exaltation), Saptavargaja (divisional dignity), Ojhayugma (gender of sign), Kendra (angular house), Drekkana (decanate). Reflects WHERE the planet is placed.
Each planet has a preferred direction/house: Sun & Mars → 10th, Moon & Venus → 4th, Mercury & Jupiter → 1st, Saturn → 7th. Strength decreases with distance from that house.
6 sub-components: Nathonnatha (day/night fitness), Paksha (lunar fortnight), Tribhaga (part-of-day), Abda (year), Masa (month), Vara (weekday). Reflects WHEN the person was born.
For the 5 true planets (not Sun/Moon). Retrograde planets receive the highest Cheshta Bala (60). Faster direct motion = more strength than slow or stationary.
Fixed permanent order defined by Parasara: Sun (60) → Moon → Venus → Jupiter → Mercury → Mars → Saturn (8.57). Cannot change; reflects the planet's cosmic rank.
Strength received from aspects of other planets. Benefics (Jupiter, Venus, Mercury) bestow positive Drik; natural malefics reduce it. Conjunctions, trines, and oppositions are considered.
ℹ️ Methodology Note: Shadbala values are calculated per Maharshi Parasara's Brihat Parasara Hora Shastra (BPHS). Some sub-components (Tribhaga, Abda, Masa) use simplified approximations. Cheshta Bala uses real-time geocentric velocities. Required Rupas per planet follow classical BPHS thresholds.
