Gandanta Points

 
Q. What is Gandanta point? My moon is in Magha nakshatra near gandanta point in the first house and mars in Ashwini nakshatra 9th house.

A. It occurs between water and fire signs. Having a planet there would signify one going through some sort of transformative event or process in the area of life related to the signification of that planet and the houses it rules.

Gandanta planets are usually seen in the birth chart. The Vargas are mostly used for studying aspects and rashi placements.
