Namaste,
Regarding twins, you are agreeing that the divisions of lagna are important but you are refusing to take houses from divisional lagna. I fail to see how you can explain the differences between twins.
Let us try an example of twins.
(1) 15th September 1970, 1:14 am (TZ: 5:00 west)
Stillwater, Oklahoma, USA (97 W 03' 29', 36 N 06' 56')
Moon: 25Aq38, Lagna: 17Ge37
(1) 15th September 1970, 1:29 am (TZ: 5:00 west)
Stillwater, Oklahoma, USA (97 W 03' 29', 36 N 06' 56')
Moon: 25Aq39, Lagna: 14Ge20
Saravali gives some general guidelines on physical attributes, facial features and general nature based on hora, drekkana and navamsa. If you use those guidelines, you will not really see the differences between these twins. For example, Saravali says that one born in the 5th navamsa of Gemini has a wide face, large chest, big head, deception, strong shoulders etc. It says that one born in the 6th navamsa of Gemini has sweet looks, talkative nature, uneven forehead, nice body, red lips etc.
Now, how do you explain the glaring difference between these two twins using just the above?
One twin is insane and the other is brilliant and has degrees in engineering and medicine.
If you take houses in divisional charts, you can explain the differences.
BTW, many (though not all) old astrologers who use navamsa take houses in navamsa.
May Jupiter's light shine on us,
Narasimha"

You are right. There were cut, paste & edit errors. The birthdata is correct
though.
It should be:
(1) 15th September 1970, 1:14 am (TZ: 5:00 west)
Stillwater, Oklahoma, USA (97 W 03' 29", 36 N 06' 56")
Moon: 25Aq39, Lagna: 14Ge20
(2) 15th September 1970, 1:29 am (TZ: 5:00 west)
Stillwater, Oklahoma, USA (97 W 03' 29", 36 N 06' 56")
Moon: 25Aq48, Lagna: 17Ge37

Yes and if you take the houses in navamsa and other divisional charts, the
picture is totally different in the two charts.
I am curious to see how people like Vijaydas Pradeep, who question finding
houses in navamsa and other divisional charts, can explain the glaring
differences between these twins.

Good point. In fact, we don't need twins for this issue. This is true for
siblings also. If you take the 4th and 9th houses from lagna or karaka
(Sun/Moon) in rasi or dwadasamsa, siblings can show different influences
relating parents. But they may share the same parents. What does it mean?
In the case of twins, you can take natural significators and be happy that
D-12's show the same father and mother. But what about siblings? Their rasi and
D-12 charts may be totally different even if you take natural karakas. What now?
Do you want to rethink your answer?
Even father's and mother's rasi and saptamsa charts can show different
influences regarding the same child. How to reconcile this?
I will give my views on this in a couple of days, after letting others give
their views!

I am not at all surprised.
Only Vedic astrology has tools that enable us to answer the twins riddle. Yet
some Vedic astrologers refuse to accept those tools. What a pity...
I even have a case where only shashtyamsa is different and other divisional
charts are the same. They are still different persons.

Technically, we are supposed to use Shodasottari dasa in the elder twin's chart
and Ashtottari dasa in the younger sibling's chart. Lagna being in Sun's hora
and it being Sukla paksha, Shodasottari applies in the elder's chart. In the
younger's case, it doesn't apply as lagna changes to Moon's hora. Ashtottari
applies in both (Sukla paksha, night time birth and Rahu in a quadrant from
lagna lord). But Shodasottari is given precedence over Ashtottari when both
apply.
However, my repertiore is limited to Dwisaptati sama dasa, Chaturaseeti sama
dasa, Shashtihayani dasa and Sataabdika dasa. When I tried to use Shodasottari
and Ashtottari dasas as general purpose phalita dasas, I felt that there might
be some missing links.When I can't use the above-mentioned 4 dasas, I just use
Vimsottari.
So I will personally use Vimsottari dasa in these charts.
May Jupiter's light shine on us,
Narasimha
