1. 🔮 KUNDLI / BIRTH CHART CALCULATOR

What It Is:

A Kundli (also called Janam Kundali, Birth Chart, or Horoscope) is an astronomical snapshot of the sky at the exact moment and location of your birth.

How It Works - The Mathematics:

Step 1: Astronomical Data Collection

  • Date of Birth: Determines planetary positions on that day
  • Time of Birth: Critical because Ascendant (Lagna) changes every ~2 hours
  • Place of Birth: Provides geographical coordinates (latitude/longitude) for accurate calculations

Step 2: Planetary Position Calculation

Modern Kundli software uses NASA's JPL Ephemeris data to calculate exact positions of:

  • 7 Visible Planets: Sun, Moon, Mars, Mercury, Jupiter, Venus, Saturn
  • 2 Shadow Planets: Rahu (North Node) and Ketu (South Node)

Mathematical Process: Planets' positions are calculated in degrees (0-360°) along the ecliptic. Each zodiac sign occupies 30°.

Step 3: Calculating the Ascendant (Lagna)

The Ascendant is the zodiac sign rising on the Eastern horizon at birth time. It changes approximately every 13-14 minutes.

Formula: LST (Local Sidereal Time) = GST + (Longitude in degrees × 4 minutes)

Step 4: Vimshottari Dasha System

The Dasha system predicts timing of events based on Moon's Nakshatra at birth. The total cycle is 120 years.

2. 🌙 MOON SIGN CALCULATOR

What It Is:

Moon Sign (Rashi/Janma Rashi) is the zodiac sign where the Moon was positioned at your birth. In Vedic Astrology, Moon Sign > Sun Sign because the Moon represents the mind and emotions.

Calculation:

Calculated by finding the Moon's exact position in degrees. The zodiac is divided into 27 Nakshatras (lunar mansions). The Moon's Nakshatra determines your birth star and Dasha starting point.

3. 🌅 LAGNA (ASCENDANT) CALCULATOR

What It Is:

The zodiac sign rising on the Eastern horizon at your exact birth time. It determines your outer personality, physical appearance, and the entire house structure of your chart.

Why Birth Time Accuracy Matters: Lagna changes every ~2 hours. Even a 4-minute error can change your Lagna.

4. 🔷 NAVAMSA (D9) CHART CALCULATOR

What It Is:

The Navamsa chart is the 9th harmonic division of your birth chart, created by dividing each 30° zodiac sign into 9 parts of 3°20' each. It is critical for analyzing marriage relationships and planetary strength.

Formula: Navamsa Position = (Planet's degree within sign) ÷ 3°20'

5. 💑 MATCHMAKING / KUNDALI MILAN

Uses the Ashtakoota (8-factor) compatibility system. Total points = 36.

1. Varna (1 pt) - Spiritual compatibility
2. Vashya (2 pts) - Mutual attraction
3. Tara (3 pts) - Health & Longevity
4. Yoni (4 pts) - Sexual compatibility
5. Graha Maitri (5 pts) - Mental compatibility
6. Gana (6 pts) - Temperament
7. Bhakoot (7 pts) - Family prosperity
8. Nadi (8 pts) - Genetic compatibility (Most Critical)

6. 🐍 RAHU-KETU CALCULATOR

Rahu and Ketu are mathematical points (Lunar Nodes) where the Moon's orbit intersects the ecliptic. They are always 180° apart.

  • Rahu (North Node): Obsession, desires, future direction, confusion.
  • Ketu (South Node): Detachment, spirituality, past life mastery, moksha.

7. 🪐 SADE SATI CALCULATOR

Meaning "Seven and a Half", this is the 7.5-year transit of Saturn over your Moon Sign. It is considered the most challenging period for growth.

Phases:

  • 1st Phase (Rising): Saturn in 12th house from Moon. Mental stress and expenses.
  • 2nd Phase (Peak): Saturn on Moon sign. Heaviest pressure and identity crisis.
  • 3rd Phase (Setting): Saturn in 2nd house from Moon. Financial and family lessons.

8. 🔢 NUMEROLOGY CALCULATORS

Life Path Number:

Calculated by adding all digits of your birth date. Represents your core purpose.

Destiny Number:

Calculated from your full birth name using numerology values (A=1, B=2, etc.). Shows natural talents.

10. 💎 GEMSTONE RECOMMENDATION

Gemstones act as cosmic filters for planetary energies. They are recommended to strengthen beneficial planets in your chart.

Planet Gemstone Day
Sun Ruby Sunday
Moon Pearl Monday
Mars Red Coral Tuesday
Mercury Emerald Wednesday
Jupiter Yellow Sapphire Thursday
Venus Diamond Friday
Saturn Blue Sapphire Saturday

12. 📅 PANCHANG SYSTEM

"Panch" (five) + "Anga" (limbs). The 5-limb Hindu calendar system for calculating auspicious times.

  • Tithi: Lunar Day (Relationship between Sun and Moon)
  • Vara: Weekday (Ruled by planets)
  • Nakshatra: Lunar Mansion (Moon's constellation)
  • Yoga: Sun-Moon combination
  • Karana: Half of a Tithi

Scientific Basis & Honest Position

Astrology is a 5000+ year observation system. Planetary positions are calculated with 100% astronomical accuracy using NASA data. While the mechanism of influence remains scientifically debated, we approach astrology as a psychological tool for self-understanding, a timing guide, and a spiritual framework—never as an excuse for inaction.
