HORA or D/2
D-2 or Hora Dhana-Varga
the 1/2 Portion = Second Divisional Chart "fruits of the treasury”
BPHS Chapter 6: Shloka 5-6
"The Rashi owned by a Graha, is called its Kshetra. The first half ofan odd Rashi is the Hora,
ruled by Surya. While the second halfis the Hora ofChandra. The reverse is true in the case ofan
even Rashi. Halfof a Rashi is called Hora. These are totally 24, counted from Mesha and
repeated twice (at the rate of12) in the whole ofthe zodiac.”
David Frawleyin Astrology of the Seers
The Hora chart is simple as it is the most basic of the harmonic charts.
The first 1/2 of odd signs like Aries is ruled by the Sun, the second1/2 by the
Moon.
Conversely, the first 1/2 of even signs, like Taurus, is ruled by the Moon;
the second1/2, by the Sun.
For example, if Mars is locatedin 20 degrees ofVirgo, as it is in the second
half of an even sign, it would be in the Hora of the Sun. Hence, the Hora chart
only gives solaror lunar status of planets and does not place them in signs
like the other harmonic charts.

- When hora lagna is associatedor aspectedby malefic planets in the
natal chart.
- When hora lagna is debilitated or conjunct debilitated planets then

immoral and unhappy.
- It is normally concludedthat the Sun, Mars and Jupiter give good
effects when they occupythe hora of the Sun.
- Moon, Venus and Saturn are goodwhen they occupy the hora of the
Moon.
- Mercury is consideredwell-placedin both the horas.
- If a malefic or cruel lagna lord occupies an odd sign in the natal chart
and falls in the Sun’s hora in the D/2 chart there will be a tendency of
being cruel, strong and wealthy.
- A benefic planet placed in a even sign in the natal chart and falls in the
Moon hora in the natal chart, the native is brilliant, softspokenand
fortunate.
- Mixed of planets gives mixed results.
- The mahadasha lord and its placementin odd or even sign and different
degrees ofdivisions (as statedbelow) will indicate the native’s speech,
attitude, speechand fortune.
Some scholars are of the opinion that different strength of a planet varies
when they are placedin the following 3 divisions of a hora:
Hora Divisions Degrees ofthe division Strength of the division
1 0 to 5 and 15 to 20 Strongest
2 5 to 10 and 20 to 25 Average
3 10 to 15 and 25 to 30 weakest
Mansagri gives the following general effects of hora placement:
- Sun placed in Moon’s hora : the native has comforts and wealth acquired by his own efforts. At the
same time he will be dignified with feminine disposition.
- Sun placed in own hora : the native will be courageous, hardworking, does victorious deeds.

The effects of Hora or D/2 in the chart – Example 2:
- The Hora lagnesh, Sun is associated with Moon in Moon hora, who is a
friend, but in the 12th
house in the natal chart.
- Hora lagna lord is associated by a benefic Venus, but at the same time
by Rahu who is a malefic along with Mercury.
- These indications not so beneficial but at the same time the native gets
various comforts.
- Considering the above conditions, during the dasha of Sun and Moon,
the attitude, manners, speech, etc. of the native did not bring him him
any honour or dignity.
- The hora lagna is Leo and Sun, Mars and Jupiter give goodeffects when
they occupy the hora of the Sun. In the instant case, Jupiter and Mars
occupies a kendra and are conjunct. Further, both are lords of trikonas
in the natal chart, and Jupiter aspects 5th
and 9th
. The both are capable
of giving the native honour, dignity and wealth.
- Any cruel planet occupying Sun’s hora lagna, gives wealth and honour.
Mars in Sun hora: brave, wealthy and persevering and is the beloved of
all.
The truth of hora lagna in the present case is as follows:
i) The native became the belovedof all.
ii) With the 9th
house operating fully during Mars dasha, under the
benefic aspectofJupiter, the native became a corporator, built a
temple, got a house and built a 3 star hotel.
iii) He got honour and socialstatus.
iv) Moresoever, his language was refined and commanding and
attiude with the public made him endearing to one and all, even
his enemies.
