With the Rasi-chakra moving towards the East the count of signs or houses is from the eastern horizon, and their duration differs from latitude to latitude. The entire sign or rasi rising in the east at the given local mean-time of birth or query is the first house or the Lagna. Hindu astrology, which is primarily based on constellations or nakshatras and on the equal house division, follows the Sidereal or the fixed zodiac. The Lagna (Ascendant) is the exact point marked by the eastern horizon on the zodiac-belt that seemingly encircles the Earth it is the point where the ecliptic cuts the horizon in the East. The Lagna is both, a kendrasthana and a trikonasthana. They form the Dharma-trikona and are also known as the Lakshmisthanas, these bhavas and their lords signify luck and prosperity. Trikonasthanas or trikonas or trines are conventionally the Lagna or the Birth-ascendant, the fifth and the ninth bhava or house counted from the Lagna (or the Chandra-lagna or the Surya-lagna).
