Abstract

Here, the lagna corresponding to the rising and setting of a planet having a latitudinal deflection (vikṣepa), is calculated. The visibility correction (darśana-saṃskāra) is the correction that should be applied to the longitude of the planet to obtain the lagna corresponding to the rising and setting of the planets.
