How Rare Is Your Chart?
I ran my natal engine across 20,000 randomly generated birth charts: real ephemeris positions, births from 1970 to 2005, random times, fifteen Indian cities. The result is a population baseline that almost no astrology practice publishes, so that when your report names a feature of your chart, you also know how common or rare that feature truly is.
The Lean House: Marriage in Ashtakavarga
Of the twelve houses, where does the chart’s transit support actually run thinnest? Across 20,000 charts the answer is unambiguous: the 7th, the house of marriage.
Every baseline above is checkable on paper, and it checks out. Sade Sati covers three signs of twelve, predicting 25.0%: measured 25.1%. The 7th lord falls in a dushtana three signs in twelve: measured 25.0%, exact. The Moon sits own-sign or exalted two signs in twelve, 16.7%: measured 16.7%, exact. The lagna lord lands in a kendra or trikona half the time: measured 50.3%. At least one exalted planet among seven runs 45.6% by binomial arithmetic: measured 45.4%. The retrograde rates reproduce the astronomy of each planet exactly. When an engine’s twenty thousand trials land on the combinatorics to the first decimal, you can trust the one chart that matters: yours.
Why publish this?
Because context is honesty. A reading that calls your Mangal Dosha rare, or your Sade Sati a unique affliction, or your 7th-lord placement a calamity, is trading on fear of the unknown. Half of all charts carry the dosha in some form, a quarter of humanity shares your Sade Sati at this very moment, and one person in four carries the same 7th-lord placement you do. What is rare is the specific weave of your chart: which houses your lords serve, what protects what, and what the timing asks of you now. That weave is what a proper reading maps, source-first from the Brihat Parashara Hora Shastra and Bhrigu Sutram, with every rule stated in plain text.
