Panchang calculation using Swiss Ephemeris

[Guest guest]

Hello,First of all, thank you for accepting me into this group.I would like to know how to calculate panchang for a particular day using swiss ephemerides. Can anyone please guide me on this or provide some helpful links? I have been searching without luck for the past one week for this.

Regards,Vinod

[Guest guest]

Pl visit www.astro.com, touch 'Ephemeris', choose 6000 years Ephemeris, choose the Year as desired, moth by month is shown.

Due to rounding in Swiss Ephemeris as provided above, the accurate planetary positions for a required time of a date (as per Swiss Ephemeris) can be calculated from the American Emphemeris. (Ref: Casting a Horoscope Manually, FREE KPEzine Apr-May 2008 at www.loger.com)

Thanks a lot for the link and reply. I found several interesting information there.But what I want to know is how to calculate nakshatra, tithi, yoga and karana for a particular day. I couldn't find out the exact method for that. ie, to use the data from

the ephemeris to find out the current nakshatra/rashi. I know only the basics.VinodOn Tue, Dec 16, 2008 at 9:15 PM, tw853 <tw853 wrote:

Dear Vinod,

 

I have started putting together Panchangam calculation information on

my site along with C++ source code using

Swiss Ephemeris.

 

This is only a starting stage, and you can visit:

Dear friend

What you want is Traditional Astrology. Swiss Ephemeris gives on the Planetary

Position for the Day. Write out the Deinitions, you understand about the element

of Panchang, and you get some light.

For example : nakshtra is the Star Aswini...Revati) in which the Moon resides at

Sunrise (local) onthe date... See how that is calculated from the Swiss

Ephemeris. ATTENTION VINOD MOHAN

Thanks to the generous help i received from here and some other mailing lists, I was able to calculate tithi and nakshatra successfully. But I have a few more doubts, can someone please clarify them for me?From what I understand Nakshatra and tithi is dependent on the place of birth. How do I accommodate that in the calculation? What should I do with the timezone, latitude and longitude?

Please help me.Vinod

[Guest guest]

Dear Vinod ji,

 

If You spend one month in understanding the basics of making a chart

manually, without touching the computer, and are able to make 3 simple

charts in the last 3 days of this one month ( One Chart in one day,

Which is not a very big deal, if you get down to seriously learning the

same ), you will have no need to put up these queries at all.

 

best wishes,

 

Bhaskar.

Hello Bhaskar,I am creating a panchang calculator using swiss ephemerides as part of a project. And my deadline is fast approaching, or else I would have studies everything inside out. Infact I am becoming more and more interested in astrology and its importance as I learn. But don't have enough time for that.

I was successful in calculating the nakshatra/tithi at a particular time and calculating all the tithis with their start time and end time for a particular period of time. I have added the timezone(5.5 hours) to the calculated time and it worked fine. My logic says from within me that the same will apply to longitude too. ie, If calculation is to be made in longitude, then I should add longitude / 15 to the time. But I checked AstroJyothi's online panchang calculator and see that longitude is not affecting the result. Can anyone please clarify this for me?

Dear Vinod,

Normally in the computation of the RAMC , the longitudunal

correction is made to the Longitude of the place,in order

to make necessary corrections to the BST Noon

( BST means Birthplace Sidereal Time). I will take on

example as under. (Usng Rapheals Ephemeris )

 

If GMT noon ST as on 1.1.2003 is 18.42.55

Birth placeis Calcutta 88 E 23

Then you multiply the constant 0.6571" to the longitude

of Calcutta in order to arrive at the correction figure.

Using an ordinary calculator you will multiply

88.38333 x 0.6571s = 58 seconds which will have to be

deducted from the GMT Noon ST to get the answer of

BST Noon 18hrs 41m 57 seconds as on 1.1.2003

in order to move ahead in the computation of the RAMC.

 

There is one more simple way to calculate the above.

Multiply the longitude of the place, in this case

88.23 x 2 and divide by 3. The answer will be the same-

58 seconds.

 

The above is for calculation of the RAMC manually.

How they do it in Computer softwares , I am not aware

of this.

 

regards,

Bhaskar.

Thanks a lot anant ji. If I am calculating for another location, how will the value change?For Jan 1, 2009 (IST) (Actual calculation is made in Universal Time (So I reduce 5.5 hours from this time before calculation))

Dear Vinod Mohan

The panchang is calculted taking the day starting at Sunrise at the particular place wanted and ending at Sunrise next day. This varies from place to place, and has to be calculated, or substituted in the formulae. This gives the Panchang for the particular place. The swiss ephemris gives position of planets at a time mentiond there in. I have not used it, so I do not know whattime is given]

I didn't want to post a wrong information, hence I tested the relation of the longitude of the place of birth on the nakshatra with several softwares. But in all softwares (including Prophet for Supersoft, Jagannatha Hora...) changes in longitude does not produce any differencee in the nakshatra or ayanamsa. Can someone please confirm this?

[Guest guest]

Dear Vinodji,

Please understand that if You are talking of the Nakshatra of Moon, then first of all find out, how many times will Moon change Nakshatra in a month , then in a day , or else the other way round, after how much time period the Moon changes its nakshatra.

If Youa re talking of the ascendant nakshatra, then again check this with the above parameters.

Then try checking with places which ahve same longitide but seperate latitudes.

Then try checking at times of Sandhi periods of Nakshatra changes for whatever points of reference you require.

After doing the above with at least 50 Charts, you will get the answer of Your Query.

Ayanamsha - How is this going to change , with longitude I cannot understand ? Please explain this.

Because normally when casting charts manually from a Ephemeris of foreign origin, like Rapheals, we first calculate the Sayana planetary positions and later on deduct the ayanamsha of our Choice.

regards,

Bhaskar.

Dear Vinod Mohan

 

Sunrise time differ with longitude. For a particular longitude, the sunrise time is same for all latitude upto + or - 60 degrees. So there is no change in planetary positions and cuspal positions though there is lattitude difference.

Dear Vinod Mohan

 

 

Earlier I have sent the following message. It is not correct. Sunrise time differs. Cuspal positions differ. Planetary positions are same. Hence I withdraw my message. Sorry for the inconvenience.

Dear Vinodji,

I hope you must have started the study of what was questioned by you.

I wish to conclude this with few some observations for the new comers.

 

1) At times even 1 minute of difference to the Lat. and Longtiude

can make a lot of difference to the statistics arrived at, and few minutes

of difference may at times change the Lagna altogether.

 

2) one must never rely completely upon the Softwares for what has

been feeded in them.

 

3) At times even though the Software may be right but we may make a mistake

in selection of the right place of birth, for instance there are 2 places

named as Belur , one is in Karnataka and one in W, Bengal. There

are 2 places known as Bilaspur, one in Chattisgarh and one in HP. You

will find many such examples not only in India, but all over the world.

Then check the difference between "Jaipur" and " Jajpur". One is in

Rajasthan, and one is in Orissa. We may by mistake unknowingly click

on the wrong place of birth. We can never be confidenet that we know all.

 

4) It is always better to confirm from a handy hard copy of the Tables

of latitudes and longitudes , on what is shown by the computer, before

you press " View " for the chart.

 

5) At times the Time Zones shown by Computers too are wrong.

 

6) You may refer the Atlas too, apart from keeping a

Book for various Latitudes and Longitudes, or else visit links such as -

http://www.astro.com/atlas to confirm .

 

regards,

Bhaskar.
