How to read it
Count how many planets sit in Sun-hora vs Moon-hora. The dominant side suggests the person's primary channel for wealth. Strong benefics in the Hora indicate the chart's general capacity to attract and retain wealth.

How it’s computed
Each 30° sign is split into two 15° halves. In odd signs, the first half maps to Leo (Sun) and the second to Cancer (Moon). In even signs, the order is reversed.What the Hora reads
The Hora chart (D2) divides each 30° sign into two 15° halves, mapping each half to either the Sun (in odd signs) or the Moon (in even signs). The result is a chart with only two divisions — Sun-ruled hora and Moon-ruled hora — which encodes how a person's chart relates to wealth flow over the lifespan.
Classical sources read the Sun-hora as wealth earned through one's own action (initiative, business, leadership, public reputation) and the Moon-hora as wealth that flows through relational and emotional channels (inheritance, gifts, family wealth, real estate, intuition-driven gains). Planets concentrated in one hora suggest the person's financial life will primarily run through that channel.
The Hora chart is usually read alongside the 2nd house of the Rasi (which it complements rather than replaces) and Jupiter's placement (the natural significator of wealth). It is the most specialised of the foundational vargas and is rarely read in isolation.
Pitfalls
The Hora chart is reductive — it only knows about two divisions. Don't read it as a complete wealth chart; it complements the 2nd-house and Jupiter analysis rather than replacing it.

Your Vedic chart already includes the Hora.
The free Vedic birth chart computes D1 + D9 by default; the paid chambers expand to the full Shodashavarga when the reading calls for it. Pull up your chart and see how the Hora maps your wealth, accumulated assets, material flow domain.
