Sarva vs Bhinna Ashtakvarga
Sarvashtakvarga — The total combined bindus from all 8 contributors (7 planets + Lagna) in each sign. Shows overall strength of each house in your chart.
Bhinnashtakvarga — Individual planet's own bindu chart. Shows which signs each planet performs best when transiting — critical for transit predictions.
Reading the Scores
0–2 bindus — Very weak — transits through this sign bring obstacles and delays for that planet's themes
3–4 bindus — Below average — some friction, proceed with caution during transits
5–6 bindus — Strong — transits here deliver results; good time to act on that planet's themes
7–8 bindus — Exceptional — maximum support; the rarest and most auspicious transit windows
Practical Transit Use
The most powerful use of Ashtakvarga is predicting transit results. When Jupiter transits a sign where you have 6+ Jupiter bindus, that is a golden window for expansion. When Saturn transits a sign with only 1–2 bindus, brace for maximum friction in those life areas.
Saturn's transit through a sign with 4+ bindus in your Bhinnashtakvarga is considered far more manageable — even favourable.
