This chapter is part of Gurukul Plus

The foundational curriculum — grahas, rashis, bhavas, nakshatras, dashas and how to read a chart with them — is free to read here and free to practise in the app. Krishnamurti Paddhati (KP) Basics is one of the advanced chapters, and its teaching text comes with Plus.

Plus is ₹199 a month, or ₹1,999 a year. It opens every advanced chapter and raises your saved charts from one to four, so you can work on family charts alongside your own. Both plans renew until you cancel, and cancelling takes one click.

Terms introduced here

Ruling planets: The planets ruling a moment: the sign, star and sub lords of the lagna and Moon, plus the day lord.
KP timing: An event needs three things to agree: dasha lords that signify it, a transit through a significator's star, and ruling planets that overlap the significators.
KP horary numbers: In KP horary the querent names a number from 1 to 249. The start of that sub becomes the horary ascendant.
KP's limits: A cuspal verdict is a tendency and a window, never a date or a sentence, and it is withheld when the birth time can't support it.
