INTRODUCTION TO DREKKANA
 The Zodiac is a circular belt of 360°, which is in
turn divided into 12 sectors.
 Each sector is of 30°, which is called as a
Bhavas.
 Bhava is made up of two words Bha and Va.
 Bha means to Shine; the zodiac is called
Bhachakra (shining circle) and is created by
Bhaskara (Surya; the light creator).

4
 Bhava means a house in zodiac;
 Bhava means an expression (Bhavanegalu).
All human expressions are therefore various
shades of light.
 The word '(to) Be' could also derived from Bha.
 Understanding of houses (Bhava) involves
understanding our creation.

5
 Rashi chart is more useful for while analysing
the horoscope.
 Rashi Chakra gives certain extent of details and
results about the native.
 Even after analysing the Bhava, its Rashi, the
Grahas posited in it, aspecting it, its Adipathi
and its dispositor, its strengths and its
Navamsha, its Arudha Padas and special lagnas,
its karakas, Yogas, Argala and Drishtis have all
been analysed from every possible angle, and
yet clarity is not found,
6
 Then the Divisional Charts becomes handy to
analyse and identify the correct events or
results in the horoscope.
 Each Rashi is divided into x parts, such as 2, 3,
4, 7, 9, 10, 12, etc., wherein the positions of the
Grahas are mapped in each Amsha accordingly.
 2 Parts – Hora Chart (D-2) – Wealth
 3 Parts – Drekkana (D-3) – Co-borns
 4 Parts – Chaturthamsha (D-4) – Property,
fortunes Drekkanas © Prof. Dr. N. S. Murthy
7
 5 Parts – Panchamsha (D-5) – Fame, power
 6 Parts – Shasthamsha (D-6) – Health
 7 Parts – Sapthamsha (D-7) – Progeny
 8 Parts – Ashthamsha (D-8) – Unexpected
troubles
 9 Parts – Navamsha (D-9) – Spouse
 10 Parts – Dashamasha (D-10) – Profession
 11 Parts – Ekadashamasha (D-11) – Death
 12 Parts – Dwadashamsha (D-12) – Parents
8
 16 Parts – Shodashamsha (D-16) – Vehicle,
Luxuries, Happiness
 20 Parts – Vimshamsha (D-20) – Spiritualism
 24 Parts – Chaturvimshamsha (D-24) – Higher
education / learning
 27 Parts – Nakshatramsha (D-27) – Strength
and Weakness

9
 30 Parts – Trimashamsha (D-30) – Evils
 40 Parts – Khavedamasha (D-40) – Legacy from
mother
 45 Parts – Akshavedamasha (D-45) – Legacy
from father
 60 Parts – Shastyamsha (D-60) – Past Karma

10
 The 30 degrees in a Rashi is divided into 3
groups which are called as Drekkana or
Decanate.
 The word Drekkana is made of 2 words “Dresh”
and “Kana”.
 The word 'DRESH' has a root in Dharshana
which means seeing or visualizing objects
which are visible and as well as hidden.
 The word 'KANA' means corner —
Astrologically it means Trikona.
11
 Thus, the word Drekkana (Dresh-Kana)
represents the Varga (Division), where the
Rashis are seeing their Trikonas and convey
visible and hidden personality and nature
(Swaroopa) of the native.
 The Drekkana is also called as Trayamsha,
Drkana, Dreskana and D-3 Chart.
 In Greek and Western Astrology it is called as
Decan or Decanate.
12
 Western Astrologers paid great attention to
the Drekkana or the Decnate system of
delineation.
 They used the Decnate which is technically
identical to Jagannatha Drekkana, in order to
unveil the native’s character.

13
 In Sanskrit a Drekkana is 1/3rd of a house.
 Therefore the first Drekkana is from 0° to 10 °
the second Drekkana is 11° to 20° &
the third Drekkana is 21° to 30°.
 Since each Rashi has 3 Drekkanas, there are 36
Drekkanas in total.

including interests, tendencies and nature of
the native.
2. Determination of brothers and sisters.
3. Drekkana plays a prominent role at the time of
commencement of any event like journey,
litigation, purchase of house, accident etc.
4. During Prashna when a question is put about
the loss of an article by theft, then the
Drekkana indicates about the thief.
46
04. APPLICATIONS OF DREKKANA
 But most importantly
5. Drekkanas are used to find the death of a

05. CONCLUSION
 The natal chart contains the key of all events
likely to happen in native's life.
 Bhachakra contains 12 Rashis, 12 Bhavas, 27
Nakshatra and ‘Amshas' of each divisional
charts.
 Each ‘Amsha' carries a different meaning in
Bhachakra.
 The appropriate Dashas are also applied to
Divisional charts.
58
05. CONCLUSION
 First the natal chart,
 Second the location of various ‘Amshas' of
Vargas in natal chart, and
 Third the Divisional charts are analysed before
arriving on final prediction.
 ||Sarve Janaha Sukhinau Bavanthu||.
