How to Read a Tajik Varshaphal Report: Muntha, Year Lord, Sahams and Mudda Dasha

10 November 2026

Varshaphal, also called Tajik annual astrology, casts a chart for the exact moment the Sun returns to its natal position each year. The Astrometry Tajik Varshaphal software builds that annual chart locally and reports the Muntha, year lord, Tajik yogas, Sahams and Mudda dasha. This guide explains how to read those parts together.

Before you begin

Use the same accurate birth details you use for your natal chart, and choose the year you want to study. Small birth-time errors shift the annual Ascendant, so confirm your details with our birth details checklist.

1. The annual chart

The annual chart is calculated for the solar return moment. Its Ascendant and house placements describe the emphasis of that year. Read it alongside, never instead of, the natal chart; our guide on reading a Kundli covers the natal basics.

2. Muntha

Muntha advances one sign each year from the natal Ascendant. The house it occupies in the annual chart, and the condition of its lord, show which area of life receives attention during the year.

3. Year lord (Varshesha)

The report identifies the year lord with its role, strength and the rule used to select it. The year lord colours the general tone of the year; read its strength label together with the rule shown so you understand why it was chosen.

4. Tajik yogas

Tajik yogas are aspect-based combinations between planets, such as applying and separating contacts. The report lists the yogas formed in the annual chart. Applying contacts generally indicate matters that develop during the year; separating contacts indicate matters that are passing.

5. Sahams

Sahams are sensitive points calculated from planetary and Ascendant longitudes for specific themes. Use them to focus on the topic you care about, then check whether the year lord, Muntha and yogas support that theme.

6. Mudda dasha

Mudda dasha divides the year into planetary periods, giving a timeline within the twelve months. Read each period in light of the planet's condition in the annual chart. For multi-year context, compare it with the natal Vimshottari dasha and our overview of annual forecasting methods.

Frequently asked question

Does Varshaphal replace the birth chart?

No. The annual chart shows how the year activates promises already present in the natal chart.
