The personal panchanga is the secret key in vedic astrology to understanding the deeper levels of your chart, and this book will help decode it. Panchanga is the Indian Almanac used from ancient times to tabulate the effect of many diverse cosmic factors that influence the quality of the day. Panch means five, and Anga means limbs, so panchanga literally means five limbs - or the five sources of energy through which the luminaries have to pass in order to reach consciousness. The panchanga on the day of the birth effects our physical energy, mental makeup, emotional connections, practical desires and our sense of security. It additionally tells of the gunas, Ayurvedic doshas, prakriti, chakras, the five great elements, dysfunctional or burnt signs, the good luck points, the lucky and unlucky planets, how to choose the right name, the best career options, relationship compatibility and much more. After reading this book, you may wonder how you ever analysed the natal chart without it.
