How these are calculated
Positions are computed to the arcsecond in the sidereal zodiac, using the Lahiri (Chitrapaksha) ayanamsa. The exact figure applied to your birth moment is printed in your report.
Two things decide accuracy more than anything else:
- The time zone in force on your birth date. India ran on +5:53:20 until 1906 and +6:30 during the war years. For a birth before 1946, today’s offset can move the ascendant a full sign.
- What cannot be known. Born on a cusp, or without a recorded birth time, your report says so rather than offering a guess as fact.
Your details stay with you
Everything is calculated on your own device. Your name, birth date, time and place are never sent, stored or shared.
Where to start
If you know your birth time, the full Janam Kundali gives you everything at once — chart, dashas, yogas, doshas and remedies. If you are new to this, the Sun Sign and Rising Sign calculators are the two placements that explain the most about a person. For a marriage question, go straight to Kundli Milan.
