Varga Comparison & Vimśopaka

Put the Rāśi and Navāṁśa — or any four vargas — side by side, and read each planet's overall dignity across all sixteen divisional charts as a single Vimśopaka score.

3 min read Updated 14 October 2026 Extended & Pro

Reading a varga always means comparing it with the Rāśi chart. Vedic → Varga Comparison lets you do that without switching back and forth: pick the charts, and they sit next to each other at the same size.

The Varga Comparison dialog in 2 charts layout with D1 Rāśi and D9 Navāṁśa side by side, a varga drop-down above each, and the Vimśopaka Bala tiles below.

Two charts — D1 and D9 — side by side, with Vimśopaka bala below.

Choosing the charts

  • Open a profile, then choose Vedic → Varga Comparison. The dialog always uses the open profile's sidereal birth chart.
  • The layout list in the header switches between 2 charts (D1 and D9 to start) and 4 charts (D1, D9, D10 and D7).
  • Each slot has its own drop-down with all sixteen vargas plus Bhava Chalit. Change any slot freely; going from 2 to 4 keeps your first two choices.
  • Charts use your current Indian chart style (North Indian if you use the Wheel).

Four charts at once — any combination of vargas.

Vimśopaka bala

Below the charts, VIMSHOPAKA BALA · SHODASAVARGA gives each planet, Sun to Saturn, a score from 0 to 20 that sums up its dignity across all sixteen vargas. In each varga a planet earns 20 in its own sign, exaltation or mūlatrikoṇa, 15 in a friend's sign, 10 in a neutral's, 7 in an enemy's and 5 when debilitated; the vargas are then weighted by importance:

VargaWeightVargaWeight
D1 Rāśi3.5D162
D2 Horā1D200.5
D3 Drekkāṇa1D240.5
D40.5D270.5
D70.5D30 Triṁśāṁśa1
D9 Navāṁśa3D400.5
D100.5D450.5
D120.5D60 Ṣaṣṭyāṁśa4

Each tile shows the score and a bar: green at 15 or more (strong), amber from 10, red below 10 (weak). Friendships here are the natural ones.

Bhava Chalit shifts

When any slot shows Bhava Chalit, a second panel lists PLANETS THAT CHANGE HOUSE — e.g. Mars: 7th → 8th — or confirms that every body stays in the same bhava as its rāśi house. It also names the house basis in use, which follows your Vedic house setting (see Divisional Charts & Bhava Chalit).

With Bhava Chalit in a slot, the planets that change house are listed.
