It would be wise to look to the varga¹ charts ( as they are sometimes called) within their groupings. This would be wise study to understand them:
- D1 to D12
- D13 to D24
- D 25 to D 36
- D 37 to D48
- D 49 to D 60
Not every divisional chart is called out by mahārishi parāśara in his brihat-parāśara-horā-śāstra e.g. D13, D26, and where is the D120 ?
Yet the wisdom is set to harmonics as they are called (I am not a fan of this, but yield to those wiser then me on this matter). That is, the D13 to D24 charts are the 1st harmonic of the D1 to D12; the rest of the chart groups become 2,3 & 4 harmonic.
It seems if I were in charge the D1 to D12 would be the 1st harmonic, but no one asked me ( go figure ?). So they tend to call the D1 to D12 the primary set of divisional charts.
Now to increase the complexity of these charts there are suggestions by mahārishi parāśara on how these divisional charts are to be constructed - as he used a sequential method. But there are other ways too to construct the divisional charts with other rules that are applied.
Mahārishi parāśara-ji's approach is considered regular and irregular. The regular order is considered as the order of brahma - the perfect or dfer of nature - smooth, sequential, etc. This order is applied to living human beings.
Then there is the irrgualr approach and some ~jumping~ as it is called, is applied. This they say is used for the non-living word & inanimate parts of the manifest creation ( things/objects that people may pursue).
So , if we took the D2 chart ( hora) there are 4 different ways to construct this chart - one being how mahārishi parāśara-ji would suggest + 3 other methods all applied for distinct purposes.
So, think of this... to be a substantially accomplished jyotisa, one not only needs to be able to use and apply all the harmonic charts properly, they too should know their permutations and when to apply them.
That is why ( IMHO) one is always the student. I have met few who in this present day can do this.
This informs the reader in a nutshell why there are meager results in a chart analysis and when there is an excellent result in a reading.
It is very easy to be a meager joytish with just some 'coffee table' knowledge. But to be most excellent, this is a different story all together.

1. varga - a division , class ,a set.
Within the large tent of JYOTISH and its sub-frameworks of this, that and the still other paddhatis, ranging from Parashara to the Nadis and secret paramparas of Kerala and all that lies in between, we often hear about a lot of claims and promises and "trust me, I know, I have seen God!" type talks, the most incredible one (some may say incredulous!), Yajavan ji, that I ever ran into was on the topic of the 'missing vargas', which like you, I too have been intrigued by for quite some time! :-)
This person I am talking about has undying faith (almost down to a religion!) in there being parallel reality, parallel universe and coexisting NOWs all running their shows in tandem (simultaneously!). He is a bit of astrologer too and claims to have studied some arcane systems which are bordering on the magical, from what he told me! <LOL>
He seriously and sincerely believes that these missing or unmentioned vargas are the key to these *OTHER* realms and are operative in those, and hence, he claims, the sages left those out of our earthly classics which describe only the jyotish that is of our immediate relevance in this realm!
I did not argue with him any further, because what is the point in beating ones gums or keyboard over what someone believes in, religiously and ceremoniously? <SIGH!>

Rohiniranjan
