II UPAGRAHAS Each day and night can be divided into 8 equal parts called yamardha. 7 of the 8 Yamardhas are governed by the weekday lords in the order of the weekdays from Sun to Saturn whereas the part after Saturn is unlorded. The Yamardhas for the day and night are to be found out separately based on the dinamana (duration of the day) and ratrimana (duration of night). Calculation: Step I: If the birth is before sunset, then find the duration of the day and if the birth is after sunset, then find the duration of the night. Step II: Divide the day duration or night duration with 8 to get the 8 yamas of the day or night. The Yama starting at Sunrise is lorded by the weekday lord, whereas the Yama starting at Sunset is lorded by the 5th planet from the weekday lord in the weekday order. Thus on Sunday, the first Yama at Sunrise is lorded by Sun, whereas the first Yama at Sunset is lorded by Jupiter, who is the 5th weekday lord counted from Sun. The subsequent yamas are governed by the subsequent weekday lord. Step III: Find the ascendant at the time of rising of the Upagrahas. However, even though Maharishi Parashara has tied the rising of the Upagrahas to the yamardhas, he has not however mentioned what portion of the yamardhas, the Upagrahas rise. However, classics such as Uttara Kalamrita by Kalidasa give the clue. According to that, duration of the day is to be divided into 32 equal parts; then Mandi shall rise on different days in following parts: Mandi: Time Su Mo Tu We Th Fr Sa Day 26 22 18 14 10 6 2 Night 10 6 2 30 26 22 18 This means that on Sunday, Mandi shall rise after the completion of 26th part, i.e. in the 27th part, similarly on Monday, Mandi rises in the 23rd part and on Saturday it rises at the commencement of the 3rd part. Thus Mandi rises in the middle portion of Saturn’s part each day. This can be extended to other Upagrahas of other planets such as Kala for Sun, Mrtyu for Mars, Ardha-prahara for Mercury and Yamaghantaka for Jupiter. Thus the Upagrahas shall rise in the following parts on different days Kala: Time Su Mo Tu We Th Fr Sa Day 2 30 26 22 18 14 10 Night 14 10 6 2 30 26 22 Mrtyu: Time Su Mo Tu We Th Fr Sa Day 10 6 2 30 26 22 18 Night 22 18 14 10 6 2 30 Ardha-prahara: Time Su Mo Tu We Th Fr Sa Day 14 10 6 2 30 26 22 Night 26 22 18 14 10 6 2 Yama-ghantaka: Time Su Mo Tu We Th Fr Sa Day 18 14 10 6 2 30 26 Night 2 30 26 22 18 14 10 Steps for computation of Upagrahas: Step 1: Find the day or night birth and find the value for the Upagraha against the weekday. Call it “Upagraha Rising Value” Step 2: Find the time of rise using the following formula: Duration of day or night * Upagraha

II UPAGRAHASEach day and night can be divided into 8 equal parts called yamardha. 7 of the 8 Yamardhas are governed by the weekday lords in the order of the weekdays from Sun to Saturn whereas the part after Saturn is unlorded. The Yamardhas for the day and night are to be found out separately based on the dinamana (duration of the day) and ratrimana (duration of night).
Calculation:Step I:If the birth is before sunset, then find the duration of the day and if the birth is after sunset, then find the duration of the night.
Step II:Divide the day duration or night duration with 8 to get the 8 yamas of the day or night. The Yama starting at Sunrise is lorded by the weekday lord, whereas the Yama starting at Sunset is lorded by the 5th planet from the weekday lord in the weekday order. Thus on Sunday, the first Yama at Sunrise is lorded by Sun, whereas the first Yama at Sunset is lorded by Jupiter, who is the 5th weekday lord counted from Sun. The subsequent yamas are governed by the subsequent weekday lord.
Step III:Find the ascendant at the time of rising of the Upagrahas. However, even though Maharishi Parashara has tied the rising of the Upagrahas to the yamardhas, he has not however mentioned what portion of the yamardhas, the Upagrahas rise. However, classics such as Uttara Kalamrita by Kalidasa give the clue. According to that, duration of the day is to be divided into 32 equal parts; then Mandi shall rise on different days in following parts:Mandi:Time Su Mo Tu We Th Fr SaDay 26 22 18 14 10 6 2Night 10 6 2 30 26 22 18
This means that on Sunday, Mandi shall rise after the completion of 26th part, i.e. in the 27th part, similarly on Monday, Mandi rises in the 23rd part and on Saturday it rises at the commencement of the 3rd part. Thus Mandi rises in the middle portion of Saturns part each day.
This can be extended to other Upagrahas of other planets such as Kala for Sun, Mrtyu for Mars, Ardha-prahara for Mercury and Yamaghantaka for Jupiter.
Thus the Upagrahas shall rise in the following parts on different daysKala:Time Su Mo Tu We Th Fr SaDay 2 30 26 22 18 14 10Night 14 10 6 2 30 26 22
Mrtyu:Time Su Mo Tu We Th Fr SaDay 10 6 2 30 26 22 18Night 22 18 14 10 6 2 30
Ardha-prahara:Time Su Mo Tu We Th Fr SaDay 14 10 6 2 30 26 22Night 26 22 18 14 10 6 2
Yama-ghantaka:Time Su Mo Tu We Th Fr SaDay 18 14 10 6 2 30 26Night 2 30 26 22 18 14 10
Steps for computation of Upagrahas:Step 1:Find the day or night birth and find the value for the Upagraha against the weekday. Call it Upagraha Rising Value
Step 2:Find the time of rise using the following formula: Duration of day or night * Upagraha rising value / 32.
Step 3:Find the ascendant rising at the time arrived.
Upagraha LongitudeAsdt. rising at (Sunrise + Day duration * Upagraha rising value / 32)For night birth consider Sunset instead of Sunrise and Night duration, instead of day duration.
