Casting a KP Horoscope:

Required Information:
 Date of Birth, Time of Birth & Place of Birth
Notes:
 Placidus System is followed!
 Length of a cusp will be between 25-36 degrees.
 The sum of degrees of all house cusp will equal to 360 degrees.
 Place of Birth Latitude: Find from
Step I: Convert time of birth to railway time or 24 hours clock.
If the native is born between 00:00 to 05:30 AM – add 24 hours with birth
time for ease of calculation
Step II: Convert to Local Mean Time.
To rotate 360 degrees around Earth’s axis, Earth takes 24 hours.
To rotate by 1 degree, Sun would take 24*60/360 = 4 mins

Hence 1 degree of movement of Sun = 4 minutes

Calculate the difference of longitude of place of birth from 82 degrees 30

mins.
If we are calculating for Chennai, difference in longitude would be
82 degrees 30 mins –
80 degrees 17 mins =
--------------------------------
2 Degrees 13 Minutes
---------------------------------
Hence Chennai is 2 degrees 13 minutes west of IST latitude
1 degree = 4 mins
Hence 2 degrees 13 minutes would be
(2+13/60) degrees * 4 =
8 degrees + 13/15 degrees =
8 degrees + (13/15*60) = 8 degrees 52 minutes
Chennai is 8 minutes 52 seconds slower than IST. Hence after longitude
correction
Local Mean Time = 17 deg 30 min – 08 mins 52 secs
Hence subtracting 8 deg 52”
