To analyse the results for a specific year of your life, a horocope is cast for the time when the Sun in transit reaches exactly where it was at the time of your birth.This horoscope is used to predict events and foretell your life for that particular year.The annual or progressed horoscope is similar to that of the Siderial Solar Return chart in Western Astrology. Varshaphal is also known as the Tajaka or Tajik system of astrology. Of the many writers,Nilakanta and Kesava are the two great authors who have written elaborately on the Tajik system. The annual horoscope analysis and predictions given here are based on the principles of the Tajik system. The point called Varshapravesh,is the entry into the new year and has great significance.This is calculated as per the elaborate methods suggested in the ancient texts.The day of the week of your birth,is also considered for Varshapravesh. Apart from the ascendant in the annual chart, called Varsha Lagna other important influences analysed are that of the Muntha, the Lord of Muntha and the Lord of the year. There are wide differences in rules, for judging a horoscope under the Parasara system and the Varshaphal. The set of rules for aspects and combinations in the two systems are distinct. The strength of the planets are ascertained by Panchavargiya Bala rather than Shadbala,as in the Parasara system. In the foregoing analysis, you can see that the effects of various factors are sometimes contradictory and at times reinforcing.While some unfavourable influences are neutralised by favourable factors, often you will experience all these at least partially at sometime during the year. An overall judgement of the year ahead is given at the end of each annual forecast. Please remember that the Varshaphal period covers an entire year from the day of Varshapravesh,which is approximately from one birthday to another. The predictions given here are indications of the fortunes ahead and you can surely surmount any hard times,by your diligence,will-power and the grace of God.
