What is it?

Prashna is the branch of Vedic astrology that answers a specific question from a chart cast for the moment it is sincerely asked. The rising sign and its lord stand for the person asking, the Moon for their mind, and the house of the question and its lord for the matter itself.

How it's calculated

  1. Cast the chart for the exact moment and place the question is asked.
  2. Identify the significators: the Lagna lord (you), the Moon (your mind), the lord of the house of the matter, and its natural karaka.
  3. Test the Tajika aspects between them within their orbs (deeptamsha): an applying aspect (Ithasala) promises the matter; a separating one (Isharafa) shows it slipping away.
  4. Weigh the classical checks — the rising sign's type, benefics and malefics in key houses, the Moon's strength — and estimate timing from the degrees still to travel.

Why it matters

Prashna works when no birth time is known, and it answers the question actually on your mind rather than describing your life in general. Rohshan shows every factor behind its leaning, and gives KP and Kerala judgements as second opinions.

Frequently asked questions

Do I need my birth time for Prashna?

No. The chart is cast for the moment you ask the question, at the place you are. Your birth chart can optionally be linked for extra checks such as Tarabala.

Can I ask the same question twice?

Classically no — the first sincere asking is the one the sky answers. Rohshan reopens your earlier Prashna if you repeat a question within 24 hours.

What is the KP 1–249 method?

In Krishnamurti Paddhati horary you think of a number from 1 to 249. It fixes the Ascendant at one of the 249 star-sub divisions of the zodiac, and the sub-lord of the cusp of the matter decides the answer.

Will Prashna predict death or illness?

Rohshan never predicts death or lifespan. Health, legal and pregnancy questions are answered as tendencies, with a pointer to the right professional.
