KP Prasna — one number, a clear answer
In KP (Krishnamurti Paddhati) horary, you hold your question in mind and give the first number from 1 to 249 that comes to you. The number fixes the ascendant; the planets at the moment you ask, and the sub-lord of the cusp that rules your question, give the answer.

How KP horary works
Your number is the ascendant
The zodiac is divided into 249 slices. The slice your number names becomes the ascendant; the other house cusps are worked out for your place.
The cusp sub-lord decides
For marriage it is the 7th cusp, for a job the 10th. If that cusp's sub-lord signifies the supporting houses the answer is yes; if it signifies the denying houses, no.
Ruling Planets give the timing
The Ruling Planets at the moment you ask, together with the dasha, bhukti and antara they run, point to when the event is likely.

KP Prasna — frequently asked questions
What is KP horary (the 249-number method)?
It is the horary method of Prof. K. S. Krishnamurti. The zodiac's 27 stars are each split into 9 subs in Vimshottari proportion, giving 249 divisions. The number that comes to the querent's mind fixes the ascendant, so no birth details are needed.
How should I choose the number?
Hold your question in mind and give the first number that comes to you, without calculating. Do not keep changing numbers for the same question.
Can the answer change later?
No. The answer and its timing are sealed the moment you ask. Every time the page opens we recast the chart and check it produces the same seal.
