About the Vimsamsa Chart (D20)

The Vimsamsa chart (D20) is one of the sixteen major divisional charts (Shodashavarga) in Vedic astrology. It narrows the focus of the natal chart specifically to the theme of spiritual progress, religious activities, and upasana.

Divisional charts are derived by mathematically dividing each zodiac sign into equal parts. The Vimsamsa uses a specific divisor to redistribute planetary positions into a specialized lens that reveals deeper layers of the birth chart.

When interpreting the Vimsamsa, astrologers examine the strength of the Ascendant lord and the natural significators related to the chart's domain. Planets that are strong or well-placed in this chart deliver their promise more fully in the areas it governs.
