Gemini navamsha: D9 signs by natal degree

A planet in natal Gemini can fall in nine different navamsha signs, depending on its exact sidereal degree. Each division is 3°20′ wide. Use the table to map the natal position to its D9 sign. The natal sign alone does not identify a navamsha placement, and D9 is not a second observed sky.

Which D9 sign matches a degree in Gemini?

Find the planet's sidereal degree within Gemini, then select its interval below. Include the starting degree; at an exact end boundary, move to the following interval.

How is the navamsha calculated?

Multiply the full sidereal zodiac longitude by nine and keep the remainder after dividing by 360°. The resulting 30° segment names the D9 sign. In Gemini, a position at 1° falls in Libra; a position at 5° falls in Scorpio.

These are worked mapping examples, not birth charts. The Vedic chart calculator supplies Lahiri sidereal positions. Keep the natal sign and house separate from the D9 sign and house.

What can a D9 placement tell me?

Vedic readers use navamsha alongside the natal chart to consider a planet's condition. A single D9 placement cannot establish a marriage outcome or a partner's identity. The D9 ascendant is especially sensitive to birth time, so an approximate time does not support a precise house reading.

Questions about Gemini

Is every natal Gemini planet also in Gemini navamsha?

No. The exact degree selects one of nine D9 signs. Read the mapping table rather than assigning a D9 sign from the natal sign name.

Which interval owns an exact boundary?

The interval beginning at that boundary. A position at exactly 3°20′ is in the second division, not the first.

Can I use a tropical longitude in this table?

This table is for the stated sidereal convention. Use a sidereal natal longitude consistently; do not mix tropical input with a Lahiri sidereal reading.

What can I explore next?

Sources and method

The tables use the lunar-angle, weekday or ninefold-division definitions described above. Astronomy Engine supplies the positions used by our calculators. Interpretations are cultural context, not guaranteed outcomes.

How we calculate

Is astrology a guarantee of what will happen?

No. These calculations locate celestial bodies; astrology is a reflection and timing tradition, not evidence of guaranteed health, financial or relationship outcomes.

How are these results calculated?

Positions come from Astronomy Engine, an open-source astronomy library, and are checked against Swiss Ephemeris in our methodology tests. Western readings use the tropical zodiac; Vedic readings subtract the Lahiri ayanamsa. Terms are defined in the glossary.
