Moon-from-Moon transit scores (Chandra gochara)
For a natal Moon in Aries, the transiting Moon's sign is counted from Aries as house 1: house = ((transit sign − 0) mod 12) + 1. These are the scores Jyotishya adds to the tara bala score each day. Chandrashtama, the house-8 case.

Aries Moon in Western (tropical) astrology
Tropical longitude = sidereal longitude + ayanamsa (24.23° at the time this page was generated, Lahiri). A sidereal Moon between 0° and 5°46′ Aries is also in Aries tropically; from 5°46′ to 30° it is in Taurus tropically. Why the zodiacs differ.
