Worksheet For Calculating Ascendant

This worksheet provides steps to calculate a person's ascendant, or rising sign. Step 1 calculates the local mean time of birth. Step 2 finds the corrected sidereal time at noon on the date of birth. Step 3 determines the corrected time interval between noon and the time of birth. Step 4 calculates the sidereal time for the epoch based on the previous steps. Step 5 uses the sidereal time for the epoch to find the ascendant, making corrections for ayanamsa.

Description

Step 1: Calculate the LMT :

h:m:s

a.

b.

Apply LMT Correction

c.

LMT of Birth

Express in 24hr format

(as per P-100 to P-107 of TOA) ( )


(= a b)

Step 2: Calculate the Corrected Sidereal Time (CST) :


a.

Sidereal Time at 12 Noon on ___/___/1900

( as per Table I of TOA)

P-2 to P-3 of TOA

b.

Correction for the Year of Birth = ________

(as per Table II of TOA)

P-4 of TOA

c.

Correction for Place of Birth = __________

(as per Table III of TOA)

P-100 to P-107 of TOA

d.

Corrected Sidereal Time at 12 Noon on ___________@ __________

Step 3: Calculate the Corrected Time Interval (CTI) :


a.

LMT of Birth as obtained in Step: 1

b.

Calculate Difference Between 12 Noon & LMT in Step: 1

c.

Increase in Time Interval = _________ (as per Table IV, P-5 of TOA)

d.

Corrected Time Interval (CTI)

( )

:
( )

Retain the Sign


Always Increase

Retain the Sign

Step 4: Calculate the Sidereal Time for Epoch (ST)epoch :


a.

Corrected Sidereal Time (CST) as per Step: 2

b.

c.

Sidereal Time for Epoch (ST)epoch

( )

(= a b)

Step 5: Calculate the Ascendant (Lagna) :


a.

(ST)max =

Ascendant for (ST)max

= (ASC)max

(ST)min =

Ascendant for (ST)min

= (ASC)min

Asc. Correction for


4 minutes interval

A=

(ASC)max (ASC)min

Sidereal Time Interval

S =

(ST)epoch (ST)min

Asc. Correction for


S minutes interval

C =

A x S
4

b.

ASC = (ASC) + C =
