The Astrology system that considers the fixed zodiac is called the
Nirayana (without Ayana!) system, while the one that considers the movable
zodiac is called the Sayana (with Ayana!) system. The Hindu system of
astrology is known as Nirayana System because this system uses the fixed
zodiac as reference. The Nirayana values of planetary longitudes can be
obtained by subtracting the Ayanamsa for a given time from the Sayana
longitudes. But unfortunately it is not known at which point of time in the
past these two zodiacs were exactly coinciding. Due to this uncertainty there
are many Ayanamsas being used by different practitioners of Nirayana
astrology.
In this small notes a formula to calculate Ayanamsa for a given date
(do not get scared by the formulae!! They are easy to use) is given:
For any other date and month add the following also to get the correct
Ayanamsa.
date 1.1574074
B= Month-1+ x
30 1000
Ayanamsa = A + B
15 1.1574074 1.1574074
B= 7-1+ x B= ( 6+0.5) x
30 1000 1000
B = 6.5 x 1.1574074/1000
= 7.5231481/1000
B = 0.0075231481
