Getting the Chart Right
Zodiacs, ayanamsas, house systems and birth time
Before a chart can be read it has to be cast, and four quiet choices decide what you'll see: which zodiac, which ayanamsa, which house system, and how far you can trust the birth time. This chapter explains each one, why this school defaults to Pushya-paksha, and why two websites can show you two different charts without either being broken.
