How it works
Three numbers and a grid
The method is simple and every step is shown in the result, so you can check it yourself.
1. Driver (Mulank)
The birth day reduced to one digit. For 14 it is 1 + 4 = 5. It shows how you act day to day.
2. Conductor (Bhagyank)
All digits of the full birth date added down to one digit. It shows the direction your life tends to take.
3. Kua number
Worked from the birth year and gender. It gives your lucky directions in the compass.
Reading the grid
What each number in the grid stands for

Order, effort and practical habits.

Drive, ambition and a wish to serve.
