Chart 1

Reckoning Point:

Sun = 302° 14’

Moon = 275° 23’

Add = 22° 30’ Total = 600°.07’ Expunging 360° we get 240° 07’ which is Sg.

Male chart. Hence reckoning from the point Sg, which is Odd, Dwisvabhava. Hence counting regular order and it will be in 1-5-9, 2-6-10, 3-7-11 & 4-8-12

Dasa	Reason	Years
1. Sg	Ju in even	3	Corrections
2. Ar	Ma in 7th	10	Ke in trine from 8th from Asc.		-1
3. Le	Su in 7th	10	Ke is also in trine from 8th of Moon		-0.5
4. Cp	Sa in even	10	(Doubtful about inclusion of this)
5. Ta	Ve in even	10	Count every 8th
6. Vi	Me in odd	7	Sg	3

8. Ge	Me in odd	4	Le	10
9. Li	Ve in even	5	Pi	12

11. Cn	Mo in 7th	10	Sc	1
12. Sc	Ma in odd	1	Aq	9

Total years come to 64 and after applying corrections it will be 62.5. Keep aside .5 which will be added to months.

Nakshatra Years = (62 x 324) ÷ 365.25 = 54.99795 = 55

Year of birth = 1809 + 55 = 1864 will be year of death. But death was on 15-04-1865

Month: (62 x 365.25)/27.32 = 828.89824 and Log(828.89824) = 2.9185012 or 3 and adding 6 months the month comes to September (9).

12^th Lord from Asc is Ju and is in 12/1

12^th lord from Mo is Ju and is in 12/1

So possible month is only 2. Event was in April (4)

Date:

12^th lord from Asc. Is Ju and is in star Pbhadrapada – 25/3

12^th lord from Mo is Ju and is in star Pbhadrapada – 25/3

Hence possible dates are 28, 6

Event was on 15^th

Here we cannot take the difference between the longitudes of the 12^th lords from Asc & Mo as both are same.

The date of death was a Saturday. Sa is Lagna lord and is aspecting Lagna as well as 8^th house. 8^th lord is placed in the house of Saturn. But the 3^rd Lord is in own house.

Clarifications required for this chart:

What is the basis of fixing the years? Here 8^th lord is placed in the 2^nd and 3^rd lod is placed in 3^rd.But I have taken the dasa upto Li – because upto that period the approximate age of death comes.
Whether any specific Ayanamsa is to be selected? I have taken Lahiri(Chitrapaksha). Even if we take other Ayanamsas the difference is not much as we take into account only the longitudes of Sun and Moon.
