Vic DiCara / Vraja Kishor 0 Report post Posted October 3, 2008 In case you are inclined to math, here are some formulas pertaining to calculating nakshatra and navamsha NAVAMSHA: $degrees = (($sign-1)*30)+$degree; $nav = (floor($degrees/3.33)+1)%12; Take the number of the sign, subtract 1, multiply that by 30 and add the number of degrees progressed in that sign.... then divide that by 3.333, lose the remainder, add one, divide by 12 and take the modulus. That shows the number of the navamsha rashi. NAKSHATRA: $degrees = (($sign-1)*30)+$degree; $nak = floor($degrees/13.33)+1; Nakshatra is the same method almost exactly... subtract one from the number of a graha's sign. multiply by 30 and add the degrees progressed within the sign. Now with that number, divide by 13.33. Lose the remainder and add one. That's the number (1-27) of the nakshatra. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
