Step 1: Convert To Burmese Year

The Western year must be converted to its equivalent Burmese year if your birth date is in western year. To convert Western year to Burmese year...

• Subtract 639 for birth date between the Western New Year (January 1) and the Burmese New Year (approximately April 15. Check Burmese Calendar for exact date for that year.)
• Subtract 638 for birth date between the day after the Burmese New Year (approximately April 16) and the day before the Western New Year (December 31)

Step 2: Divide

Take the Burmese year and divide it by 7.

Step 3: Take The Remainder

Take the remainder or left over. Ignore the quotient.

Step 4: Enter The Remainder In House Chart

Enter that remainder, or its equivalent planet (See Planets for equivalent planet), in the first house, the House of Temporal. This number is also the place where the planetary sequence begins.

Step 5: Enter The Subsequent Planets

The next in the planetary sequence is placed in the second house, the House of Extreme. The subsequent planets are placed in the House of Fame, the House of Wealth, the House of Power, the House of Sickly, and the House of Leader in that order.

Step 6: Look For Birthday Planet

Find the birthday planet in the chart and mark it. That house is your birth house.
