🍼Prasava Saham (Point of Childbirth) Calculator

The sensitive point of delivery and bringing forth

Prasava Saham concerns childbirth and delivery specifically — the event rather than progeny in general, which Putra Saham covers. Jupiter, the karaka of children, is measured against Mercury and projected from the Ascendant.

—

Formula

Jupiter − Mercury + Ascendant. The two leading terms swap for a night birth, so an accurate birth time matters.

How to Read It

Read together with Putra Saham, the 5th house and the D-7 chart. This point is about the event of birth; questions of children generally belong to the 5th house and Jupiter.

Three Pillars of Prasava (Childbirth) Strength

👑

Lord Dignity

Prasava (Childbirth) lands in a different sign for every chart. When that sign's lord is exalted or in its own sign, this Saham backs its theme fully; when the lord is debilitated or heavily afflicted, the same theme meets resistance.

📍

House Placement

Where Prasava (Childbirth) falls matters as much as its lord. In kendras (1, 4, 7, 10) or trikonas (1, 5, 9) it tends to act directly and visibly; in dusthanas (6, 8, 12) the same energy still exists but works through obstacles, competition or delay rather than ease.

🔗

Cross-Check

No Saham is read in isolation. Prasava (Childbirth) is always cross-checked against the 5th house, Jupiter and the D-7 Saptamsa chart before drawing a conclusion — a sensitive point is a clue, not a verdict on its own.

Myths vs Reality

✗ A well-placed Prasava (Childbirth) guarantees an easy life in this area.

✓ It lowers resistance, not effort — opportunities tend to arrive more naturally, but the work of acting on them still remains.

✗ A weak Prasava (Childbirth) is a permanent curse.

✓ A chart carries dozens of relevant factors — this Saham is one data point, not the whole picture. The actual house and its lord remain the primary indicators either way.

✗ Prasava (Childbirth) alone is enough to make a major life decision.

✓ Classical practice always reads it alongside the relevant house, its lord, and the applicable Dasha period — never as a standalone signal.

What If Prasava (Childbirth) Is Weakly Placed?

A weak Prasava (Childbirth) does not mean this life area is closed off — it means results here tend to come through deliberate effort rather than natural ease. Check the 5th house, Jupiter and the D-7 Saptamsa chart directly: they carry the primary promise, with this Saham only a secondary refinement on top.

Prasava Saham (Point of Childbirth) Calculator — FAQ

How does this differ from Putra Saham?

Putra Saham concerns progeny as a whole — having children, the relationship with them. Prasava Saham concerns the delivery itself.

Can it be used to time a birth?

No. Timing a delivery is a medical matter; astrologically, questions of this kind are approached through the 5th house, Jupiter and dasha, and even then held with caution.

Can I check Prasava (Childbirth) without an accurate birth time?

No — Sahams are extremely sensitive to the Ascendant degree, which changes roughly every 2 hours. Even a 15-minute error in birth time can shift this Saham into a different house. An accurate birth time is essential.

Will this Saham show the same result in every astrology app?

Minor differences are possible — the ayanamsha used (we use Lahiri), the precision of the birthplace coordinates, and rounding can shift the final degree by a few arcminutes, though the sign and house usually stay stable.
