Definition	amsha = a part, section, portion, share of things which are specifically inseparable or inherently linked together. for example, 'amsha-phalaka' = the shoulders. Specifically, the shoulders of oxen when they are Naturally the shoulders consist of two parts, and these parts can be considered separately, but ultimately they cannot be separated without loss of core function.
in practice	An amsha in Jyotisha is a part, portion, slice, which can be considered separately for some analytical purposes; however the Jyotisha forever keeps in mind that ultimately no amsha can be understood out of the context of the whole kundali. Separating any amsha, taking it out for individual inspection, making a judgment on that particular portion, must be appreciated as only one part of a total process. No one single factor can ever be determinative in a Jyotisha reading.
