    What your kundli will show

    Everything below is calculated from your birth details and returned on one page — no report to buy, nothing held back.

    Lagna, rashi & nakshatra

    Your ascendant, your Moon sign and your birth star with its pada and ruling planet — the three facts every other reading is built from.

    D1 and D9 charts

    The rashi chart and the navamsa, drawn in your chosen style. Navamsa is the divisional chart read for marriage and inner strength.

    All nine planets

    Sign, exact degree, nakshatra, pada, house and dignity — exalted, debilitated, own sign or combust — with retrograde marked.

    Vimshottari dasha

    The planetary period and sub-period you are running now, when it turns, and the sequence ahead.

    Doshas, checked

    Kaal Sarp, Mangal, Pitra and Nadi — present or clear, with the classical cancellation rules applied rather than ignored.

    Yogas present

    The named combinations your chart forms, benefic and cautionary, with the placement each arises from.

    Panchang at birth

    The tithi, yoga, karana and vara of the day you were born — the lunar day behind your chart.

    What tradition prescribes

    Where a placement is weak or afflicted: the mantra, gemstone, rudraksha and rite classically indicated for it.

    Reading your result

    What each part of a kundli means

    A chart returns a great deal at once. This is what each piece is, in the order you will meet it.

    Lagna — the ascendant

    The sign rising on the eastern horizon at the moment of birth. It changes roughly every two hours, which is why an accurate time matters — twenty minutes can shift it entirely.

    The lagna sets the frame: every house is counted from it. Two people born the same day with different lagnas have identical planetary positions arranged into completely different areas of life.

    Rashi — the Moon sign

    The sign the Moon occupied. When Vedic astrology says "your sign", this is what it means — not the Sun sign of Western horoscopes. It is read as the mind and emotional nature, and our daily and yearly predictions are written for it.

    It needs only the date and an approximate time, so it stays reliable even when the birth time is uncertain.

    Nakshatra — the birth star

    The zodiac divides into twenty-seven nakshatras of about 13°20' each, and each into four padas. Yours is the one the Moon occupied at birth.

    It carries its own ruling planet, deity and symbol — and it fixes where your dasha sequence begins, which is why it matters more than most single placements.

    Dasha — the period you are running

    Vimshottari divides a 120-year cycle among the nine grahas: Venus twenty years, Saturn nineteen, the Sun six. Whichever you are in determines which part of your chart is currently active.

    It is why two similar charts can be living very different years, and why classical astrology reads the dasha before almost anything else.

    Dignity — how strong a planet is

    Exalted is a planet at its strongest sign; debilitated its weakest. Own sign and friendly sit between. Combust means too close to the Sun to act freely.

    Dignity is not a verdict. It describes how easily a planet can express itself, and several classical rules cancel a debilitation entirely.

    Yogas — named combinations

    A yoga is a specific arrangement the classical texts named and described. Some are auspicious, some cautionary, and most charts hold several of both.

    Presence is computed; strength is not. A yoga formed by weak planets operates far less than the same yoga formed by strong ones — which is exactly what an astrologer weighs.

    The twelve houses, and what each governs

    Houses are counted from your lagna. When a planet is described as being "in the 7th", that means the seventh house from your ascendant — the area of life it governs.

    HouseSanskritGoverns
    1stTanu bhavaThe self — body, temperament, vitality, how you meet the world
    2ndDhana bhavaWealth held, family of origin, speech, food, accumulated resources
    3rdSahaja bhavaSiblings, courage, effort, short journeys, skill of the hands
    4thSukha bhavaMother, home, land and vehicles, inner contentment
    5thPutra bhavaChildren, intelligence, learning, creativity, past merit
    6thAri bhavaIllness, debt, enemies, obstacles, service and daily work
    7thYuvati bhavaMarriage, partnership, business alliances, open dealings
    8thRandhra bhavaLongevity, sudden events, inheritance, the hidden and occult
    9thDharma bhavaFortune, father, guru, faith, long journeys, higher learning
    10thKarma bhavaProfession, standing, authority, what you are publicly known for
    11thLabha bhavaGains, income, elder siblings, networks, fulfilment of desires
    12thVyaya bhavaExpenditure, loss, foreign lands, seclusion, liberation, sleep

    A caution worth stating plainly. A house is not a prediction. The 6th governs illness and enemies, but a planet there does not mean either is coming — in several cases it means the opposite, since the 6th is also the house of overcoming. Reading a single placement in isolation is the commonest mistake made with a free chart, and it is precisely what an astrologer is trained not to do.

    How accurate is this chart?

    The calculation

    Planetary positions are computed from standard ephemeris data using sidereal longitudes with the Lahiri ayanamsa — the Indian government standard and the basis our astrologers work from. For the positions themselves there is no meaningful margin of error.

    Your birth time is the variable

    Everything depending on the lagna — the houses, and therefore most interpretation — moves with the time. Four minutes shifts the ascendant about a degree; twenty can change the sign. If your time came from memory rather than a record, treat house positions as indicative.

    Birth place matters more than expected

    The calculation needs latitude, longitude and the historical timezone — including whether daylight saving applied that day, which several countries handled inconsistently. Choosing the city from the suggestions is what makes this correct.

    What no calculator can do

    It can tell you a yoga is present, a planet debilitated, a dosha formed. It cannot weigh them against each other — and that weighing is the whole of astrology. Treat this as an accurate map, not as a reading of one.

    What a kundli actually is

    A kundli is a map of the sky at the moment and place you were born — where each of the nine grahas stood, which sign was rising in the east, and which of the twenty-seven nakshatras the Moon occupied. Everything else in Vedic astrology is read from that single snapshot, which is why it is generated once and referred to for a lifetime.

    What distinguishes a Vedic chart from a Western one is the zodiac it measures against. Vedic astrology uses the sidereal zodiac, fixed to the stars; Western astrology uses the tropical, fixed to the equinox. The two have drifted roughly twenty-four degrees apart over the centuries, which is why most people's sign shifts back by one. Neither is a mistake — they are different frames, and this calculator uses the sidereal one throughout, with the Lahiri ayanamsa.

    The chart itself is arithmetic, and settled. What is not settled, and never will be, is its reading — which placements dominate, how they interact, and what a period actually brings. That is the work of an astrologer, and no calculator substitutes for it.

    Questions

    About this calculator

    Tick the box and the chart still generates. Your rashi, nakshatra and dasha come from the Moon and stay reliable — but the lagna and house positions depend on the time, so those are marked unavailable rather than shown as a guess. Rituals never require a birth time; only the date and place.
    Because Vedic astrology uses the sidereal zodiac and Western astrology the tropical, and they have drifted about twenty-four degrees apart. Most people's sign moves back by one. Neither is wrong — they are different systems, and this calculator is Vedic throughout.
    Almost always the ayanamsa. We use Lahiri, the Indian government standard; some family almanacs follow Raman or KP, which can shift a nakshatra at the boundary. If the Moon sits near the edge of a nakshatra, a small difference in the recorded birth time can also move it.
    Whichever you were raised reading. The South Indian chart keeps signs fixed and moves the lagna; the North Indian keeps houses fixed and moves the signs. They hold identical information and astrologers read both — the difference is habit, not substance.
    Not at all — the calculation is the same anywhere. What matters is that the place resolves to correct coordinates and the historical timezone, including daylight saving if it applied on that date. This is why the place field offers suggestions rather than accepting free text.
    Yes — for a child, a parent, a prospective match. Enter their details rather than yours. Signed in, you can keep several profiles under your account, which is what makes matching and family rituals straightforward later. Do ask permission where you reasonably can; birth details are personal.
    Not unless you are signed in and choose to save it. Used anonymously, the calculation runs and nothing is retained against your name. Saved profiles sit in your account, can be deleted at any time, and are never sold or shared.
    Free, with no report to buy and no limit on use. The arithmetic of a chart is settled — there is nothing honest to sell in it. What AstroBhava charges for is the human work: a live reading with an astrologer, and the rituals our priests perform.

    The chart tells you what. An astrologer tells you what it means.

    If something in your chart needs interpreting — a dosha, a dasha you are about to enter, a placement you keep reading about — book a live session with one of our astrologers. The fee is credited in full against any ritual you book afterwards.
