## Technical Methodology
- Ayanamsa: Lahiri (Chitrapaksha) = 23.85 + (year - 2000) × 0.013611 degrees
- Rahu (mean node): (125.045 - 0.052954 × J2000_days) mod 360
- Ketu: Rahu + 180 degrees
- Vimshottari sequence: Ketu(7) → Venus(20) → Sun(6) → Moon(10) → Mars(7) → Rahu(18) → Jupiter(16) → Saturn(19) → Mercury(17) years
- Navamsa (D9): Fire signs start Aries, Earth start Capricorn, Air start Libra, Water start Cancer
- Ashtakvarga contributors: Sun(max 48), Moon(max 49), Mars(max 39), Mercury(max 54), Jupiter(max 56), Venus(max 52), Saturn(max 39), Lagna(max 49) = Total 337
