Assign Bindu Values

Assigning bindu values to each planet in each sign involves considering the planetary positions and their dignity (exaltation, own sign, friendly sign, neutral sign, enemy sign, or debilitation). Here's a guide to assigning bindu values:

1.      Exalted: If a planet is exalted in a sign, it receives 8 bindus.

2.      Own Sign (Swakshetra): If a planet is in its own sign, it receives 7 bindus.

3.      Friendly Sign (Mitra Rashi): If a planet is in a friendly sign, it receives 6 bindus.

4.      Neutral Sign (Sama Rashi): If a planet is in a neutral sign, it receives 5 bindus.

5.      Enemy Sign (Shatru Rashi): If a planet is in an enemy sign, it receives 4 bindus.

6.      Debilitated: If a planet is debilitated in a sign, it receives 3 bindus.

7.      Vacant Sign: If a sign does not contain any planet, it receives 0 bindus.

Here's a summary of the bindu values assigned to each planet based on its dignity:

●       Sun: Exalted in Aries (8), debilitated in Libra (3).

●       Moon: Exalted in Taurus (8), debilitated in Scorpio (3).

●       Mars: Exalted in Capricorn (8), debilitated in Cancer (3).

●       Mercury: Exalted in Virgo (8), debilitated in Pisces (3).

●       Jupiter: Exalted in Cancer (8), debilitated in Capricorn (3).

●       Venus: Exalted in Pisces (8), debilitated in Virgo (3).

●       Saturn: Exalted in Libra (8), debilitated in Aries (3).

Using these principles, you can assign bindu values to each planet in each sign of the zodiac to calculate the Ashtakavarga scores.
