Trimsamsa Chart (D-30) Calculator

Misfortunes, evils and moral character

Trimsamsa is the thirtieth divisional chart, unique among the Shodasavarga for using five unequal divisions per sign instead of equal slices — each ruled by one of five planets (Mars, Saturn, Jupiter, Mercury, Venus). It is read for potential misfortunes, moral weaknesses and hidden troubles in life.

Division Rule

Five unequal parts per sign, ruled in order by Mars, Saturn, Jupiter, Mercury and Venus, with the ruling order reversed between odd and even signs.

How to Read It

Which of the five lords a planet falls under in D-30 matters more than house position — Mars and Saturn portions are read as more challenging, Jupiter and Venus portions as protective, with Mercury's portion mixed depending on other factors.

Why does Trimsamsa use unequal divisions when every other varga uses equal ones?

This is a deliberate classical exception — Trimsamsa's five-lord scheme (Mars 5°, Saturn 5°, Jupiter 8°, Mercury 7°, Venus 5° in odd signs, reversed in even signs) is designed around planetary rulership rather than equal geometric division, matching its purpose of flagging specific troubles rather than a smooth gradient.

Does an afflicted Trimsamsa mean misfortune is guaranteed?

No — it flags areas of vulnerability to be aware of, not a fixed outcome. Classical practice reads it alongside the birth chart's overall strength and any remedial or protective factors present.

Is Trimsamsa the same for men and women?

The five-lord division rule itself is the same; some classical commentators note different weighting when reading Trimsamsa for men versus women, though modern practice most often applies it uniformly.
