Vedic astrology · computed in your browser

Your lagna, your dasha, your day — from the minute you were born.

Not another sun-sign app. Three fields give you your full chart, a written reading with its evidence, and the planetary periods you are living through, with real dates.

Start with your birth moment

Three fields. The chart is computed in this browser.

Birth date
Birth time
Why does the minute matter?

Your rising sign (lagna) changes roughly every two hours, so even a 20-minute difference can shift which sign — and which house every planet falls in — is used for your reading. If you don’t know your birth time, we’ll say so plainly: we compute a solar-noon chart and mark the lagna and house positions as unreliable in the reading itself, rather than guessing and presenting it as fact. Your Moon sign, nakshatra and planetary period (dasha) barely move within a day, so you still get real, specific value.

Computed in this browser — your birth date and time never leave this device. Only the place name is sent, to our mapping provider.

Rahu kalaya today

What is it?

The daytime, from sunrise to sunset, is divided into eight equal parts. Which part is Rahu kalaya depends on the weekday. Tradition sets it aside and prefers not to begin new things in it. It is a custom to be aware of, not a warning.

Worked out in your browser from today’s sunrise and sunset.

Everything Jataka does

Not another sun-sign app

Built on the minute you were born, the planetary periods you are actually in, and readings that show their working.

  • Your lagna, not just your Sun sign

    The rising sign changes roughly every two hours. Most apps never ask for a birth time precise enough to get it right.

  • Real, dated planetary periods

    Vimshottari dasha gives you an actual timeline — the date the period you are in ends, not a vague vibe.

  • Every reading shows its evidence

    A “why this reading” panel lists the exact chart features each reading rests on, so nothing is stated without something behind it.
