Introduction
The birth chart is a cosmic blueprint of the sky at the moment of your birth. It offers profound insights into your personality, life events, and spiritual journey. Among the twelve houses, the 9th House (Dharma Bhava or Pitru Bhava) is one of the most auspicious, symbolizing wisdom, higher learning, spirituality, and destiny. Governed by Jupiter and Sagittarius, this house is pivotal in shaping one’s faith, ethical values, and fortune.
