The principles of Laal Kitaab are different from that of Vedic astrology. The position of the ascendant does not matter as the formation of a Laal Kitaab kundali always begin with ascendant and aries sign. But, the planets are placed according to their position at the time of birth since Laal Kitaab is influenced with Vedic astrology in certain matters.

To understand the concept of Laal Kitaab, we can compare it with Vedic astrology to know all the differences and similarities between them. Detailed analysis can help in gaining in depth knowledge of both the methods and also remove all the confusions.

Palmistry is the basis of astrology according to Laal Kitaab. The mathematical method of Laal Kitaab is taken from Vedic Astrology. Therefore, we can say that this book is based on the rules and principles of palmistry, Vedic Astrology and also has some of its own rules and principles.

Intially, Laal kitaab kundali was created on the basis of Vedic Astrology and then it is formed by placing Aries sign in the ascendant house and planets in the same houses as they are located in the vedic kundali. Because in Laal kitaab the signs remain stable within the houses, therefore each Ascendant in Laal kitaab is formed with Aries.

Thus, birth-place and time are not considered to be important for the creation of Laal kitaab kundali. According to this rule sign of each planet changes. Like, In vedic astrology it is not fixed that in which sign Jupiter will be located if it transits through the fourth house, whereas in Laal kitaab when Jupiter transits through the fourth house it will be located in Cancer sig only.

For example, firstly identify the ascendant on the basis of Vedic Astrology, then place the nine planets within the signs of houses to transform the positions of planets of vedic astrology into the Laal kitaab kundali. The planets should remain in the same houses but the number of each house should be changed and Aries should be located in the ascendant and cancer in the fourth house to create a Laal kitaab kundali.
