rahu/ketu discrepancy in navamsa

[psha85]

Hi-

I've noticed that the position of Rahu and Ketu in my navamsa chart changes from each astro program I use. For example, in Parashara Light it shows that Rahu is in Scorpio and Ketu in Taurus in the 3rd and 9th houses respectively, but in JHora it shows Rahu is in Sagittarius and Ketu is in Gemini in the 4th and 10th houses respectively. I do not understand how they can change both sign and house just based on the program. Even one site online also shows it in Scorpio/Taurus but I've had other websites show it in Sagittarius/Gemini.

I am not sure how or why this change is occurring but I would like to know which is correct, and if it is based on a different system's calculations, etc. The positions of the other planets stay the same though in both rashi and navamsa charts.

Kindly see my chart and let me know which is the correct position:

17 March 1985
13:27
Visalia, California - USA (coords: 119 W 17, 36 N 20)

Thanks & Regards,

Ohh, I see.. I never knew about that option. So in your experience, which of the two calculations provides the most accurate results? And why does it not change in the rashi chart, only navamsa?

Oh ok, I see.. thanks for explaining!
