Birth Chart Input

Fill in the form at the top of the main page to calculate a chart.

Ayanamsa Options

Horoscope (Birth Chart)

The D1 Rashi chart is the foundation. It shows where each planet was in the sky at the moment of birth, corrected for the chosen ayanamsa.

Visual Chart

The North Indian diamond chart is rendered as an SVG. Planets appear inside their house cells. The chart updates live when inputs change.

Panchanga

The Panchanga is the Hindu almanac — five time-quality elements for any given moment. These influence auspiciousness for starting activities.

Divisional Charts (Vargas)

Divisional charts slice each zodiac sign into smaller divisions to reveal specific life areas in finer detail. The D1 birth chart is the foundation; each D-chart gives a specialised view.

Calculation Methods

Each D-chart supports two methods:

• Traditional Parasara — Classical starting sign, counting forward
• PVR (P.V.R. Narasimha Rao) — Odd signs count forward (Shambhu); even signs use full reversal (Uma / parivritti). Active default for D16, D24, D60.

Divisional Dashas

Each divisional chart has its own independent Vimshottari dasha sequence, calculated from the Moon's position in that chart. The current Maha and Antardasha for each divisional chart are shown alongside the chart and are passed to the AI for domain-specific timing.

Dasha Periods

Dashas are planetary periods that indicate which planet's themes are active in a person's life and when.

Sub-periods (Antardashas)

Each Mahadasha is subdivided into 9 Antardashas (sub-periods), each further into Pratyantardashas, and so on up to 5 levels deep. The app calculates all levels and shows the currently active periods.

Other Dasha Systems

• Ashtottari Dasha (108-yr cycle) — Used in Tithi Pravesha annual charts
• Graha Dasha — Conditional dasha based on planetary strength
• Chara Dasha — Movable sign-based system (Jaimini)

Shadbala (Planetary Strength)

Shadbala is a six-factor numerical strength score for each of the 7 classical planets (Rahu/Ketu excluded). A planet above its minimum strength can fully deliver its promise in the chart.

Score is shown in Rupas (1 Rupa = 60 Shashtiamsas). Each planet has a minimum Rupa threshold; the grade shown is Strong Moderate or Weak.

Yogas (Planetary Combinations)

Yogas are specific configurations of planets that produce notable results — blessings, challenges, or special abilities. The app detects 100+ yogas automatically.

Key Categories

Each yoga shows: name, category, strength (Strong / Moderate / Weak), the trigger condition, and a plain-English meaning.

Tithi Pravesha (Annual Chart)

The Tithi Pravesha is a solar-lunar return chart — the moment each year when the Sun returns to its natal tropical sign and the Moon–Sun elongation matches the natal elongation exactly. This is the Vedic equivalent of a solar return, but tied to both the Sun's sign and the lunar tithi.

What it shows

• A new lagna and planetary positions for the current year
• Which themes are emphasized for the year ahead (based on TP chart placements)
• Ashtottari dasha running during that year — for month-by-month timing
• The return date and time (precise to the minute)

How to access it

Click Annual Chart on the horoscope page after calculating a birth chart. The year number is auto-calculated from the birth date; you can also select a specific year.

Current Transits

Shows where each planet is right now in the sky, relative to the native's birth chart.

• Current sign, nakshatra and pada for all 9 planets
• House position counted from natal Moon (standard Vedic transit method)
• Retrograde status
• Sade Sati check — whether Saturn is transiting the 12th, 1st, or 2nd from natal Moon (the 7.5-year Saturn cycle)

Marriage Compatibility (Ashta Koota)

The traditional 8-point system for comparing two charts for marriage. Maximum score is 36 points.

Result: ≥32 Excellent · 28–31 Good · 20–27 Average · <20 Poor

AI Chat — Overview

The chat widget (bottom-right of the main page) lets you ask Jyotish questions about the currently loaded chart. The AI responds as a traditional Parasara-school Vedic astrologer.

What you can ask

• Domain questions — "How is my career?", "When will I marry?", "Tell me about my finances"
• Timing questions — "What is happening this year?", "Will 2026 be good for career?"
• General readings — "Give me a general reading" or "What does my chart say?"
• Specific chart questions — "Analyse my D10", "What does my annual chart show?"
• Yoga questions — "Do I have any raja yogas?", "What are the strong yogas in my chart?"

Response style

• Direct verdicts, not hedged maybes — the AI states what IS, not what "might be"
• 120–200 words for specific questions; up to 250 for broad readings
• No chart codes (D1, D9), no Sanskrit period labels — everything in plain English
• Classical Jyotish logic cited in plain terms ("the career zone lord is in its own sign")
• Timing given as calendar dates ("March–May 2026"), not dasha lord names

Chat — Context Routing

Not all chart data is sent on every query. A 3-layer routing system selects only the relevant chart sections, keeping responses precise and reducing noise.

Chat — Knowledge Modes

An admin toggle controls how the AI handles Vedic astrology knowledge.

RAG Knowledge Base

Admins can upload Vedic astrology PDF texts. They are chunked, embedded, and stored in Pinecone. When RAG mode is active, every query searches these documents for relevant passages before answering.

Chat — Usage Limits

Limits reset at midnight UTC. The chat widget shows remaining queries for the day. When the limit is reached, the chat returns a clear message.

Admin Dashboard

Available at /admin.html for admin-role users only.

Query Analytics

The Analytics tab in the admin dashboard shows aggregate data on how users are using the chat.
