KP astrology (Krishnamurti Paddhati)

KP astrology, developed by K.S. Krishnamurti in the 1960s, is a precise branch of Vedic astrology. It divides each nakshatra into nine unequal “subs” in the proportions of the Vimshottari dasha, uses Placidus house cusps in the sidereal zodiac, and judges each matter by the sub-lord of the relevant house cusp: the sign lord gives the background, the star lord what the matter is about, and the sub-lord whether it will come to pass.
