Interpretation guide

OutputHow to read it
Lagna Vrishchika 28.6°Ascendant late in Scorpio — houses count from Scorpio as 1st
Planet in sign + degreePosition within the 30° sign; degrees near 0/30 are sign-boundary sensitive
House (bhava)Sign counted from the lagna — 4th = home, 7th = marriage, 10th = career
Rahu/KetuAlways opposite each other — the karmic axis
Benefic/malefic placementRead with a jyotishi; this chart gives the verified raw positions

lightbulb A real-world example — casting a Janma Kundali

Birth: 18 October 1995, 14:30, New Delhi, India (28.6°N, 77.2°E). Using the Drik-Siddhant Panchang model with Lahiri Ayanamsa.

Result: Lagna (Ascendant): Dhanu (Sagittarius). Chandra Rashi (Moon Sign): Vrishabha (Taurus). Nakshatra: Rohini (Pada 3). Janma Tithi: Krishna Paksha Chaturthi.

What this means: Your Lagna sets the kshetra (house framework) for the chart; your Chandra Rashi governs emotional and family-life themes. Sade Sati does not currently apply (Saturn must be in the 12th, 1st, or 2nd from the Moon sign — currently Saturn is in Meena, far from Vrishabha). The full Vimshottari Dasha sequence starting from your birth Moon-Nakshatra is shown on the result page.

Formula & methodology

Formula: Sidereal position = tropical longitude − Lahiri ayanamsa; lagna from local sidereal time and latitude

The Kundali / Janam Kundali Calculator is built on a well-established calculation method. It uses the formula Sidereal position = tropical longitude − Lahiri ayanamsa; lagna from local sidereal time and latitude to turn your inputs into a reliable result. A Kundali / Janam Kundali Calculator helps calculate kundali / janam kundali calculator using Vedic astrology, panchang, calendar, muhurat, Vastu or naming inputs. It gives an instant browser-based result with a The steps are shown on the page so you can follow the reasoning from input to output.

  1. Enter birth date, exact time, and birthplace latitude/longitude with the UTC offset in force.
  2. The calculator computes tropical positions for the Sun, Moon and planets (Meeus/Standish series) and the rising point from local sidereal time.
  3. Lahiri ayanamsa converts everything to sidereal signs.
  4. You get lagna, Moon rashi, nakshatra-pada, tithi and all nine graha placements.

Worked example — 1 Jan 1990, 06:00 IST, Delhi: lagna Vrishchika 28.6°, Moon in Kumbha (Dhanishta pada 3), Sun in Dhanu 16.6°, birth tithi Shukla Chaturthi — the same skeleton a professional kundli program prints.

Frequently asked questions

What do I need to make an accurate kundali?
Three things: birth date, birth time to the minute, and birthplace. Time matters most — the lagna changes sign about every two hours and house positions move with it. If the time is approximate, the Moon sign and nakshatra usually survive but the lagna may not.
What is the lagna and why is it the centre of the chart?
The lagna (ascendant) is the zodiac degree rising on the eastern horizon at your birth moment and place. Every house is counted from it, so it personalises the sky: two babies born the same hour in different cities get different charts.
What are Rahu and Ketu?
The Moon’s orbital nodes — mathematical points where eclipses occur — treated as shadow planets. They sit exactly opposite each other and carry karmic significations: Rahu amplifies worldly desire, Ketu detachment. Their axis position drives doshas like Kaal Sarp.
Which ayanamsa and house system does this use?
Lahiri (Chitrapaksha) ayanamsa — the Indian official standard — with whole-sign houses counted from the lagna, the classical jyotish convention. Different ayanamsas shift everything by fractions of a degree and matter only for planets at sign boundaries.
Can a calculator replace a jyotishi?
It replaces the arithmetic, not the judgment. The positions here are computed astronomy — accurate to a fraction of a degree — but synthesis (yogas, strengths, timing, remedies) is interpretive. Take this chart to a practitioner; the raw data will match their software.
