Take the number of the nakshatra (star) the planet stands in. Multiply it by the planet's own number. Multiply again by the number of its navamsha (one-ninth part of a sign). Add the numbers for the birth time, the birth nakshatra and the lagna (rising sign). Take away twelves. The remainder gives the avastha (state of a planet).
