Understand the sky behind your chart.
Clear, honest explanations of Vedic astrology — what each part of your Kundli means, how it is calculated, and how to read it.
- 01What is a Janam Kundli (Vedic birth chart)?A Janam Kundli is a map of where the Sun, Moon, planets and the rising sign were at the exact moment and place you were born, read through the Vedic (sidereal) zodiac.
- 02Sade Sati: what it is — and what it isn'tSade Sati is the roughly 7½-year period when Saturn passes through the sign before, the sign of, and the sign after your natal Moon. Tradition reads it as a time of responsibility and maturing, not inevitable misfortune.
- 03Rahu and Ketu, the lunar nodesRahu and Ketu are not physical planets but the two points where the Moon's orbit crosses the Sun's apparent path. In Jyotish, Rahu signifies desire and the unfamiliar; Ketu signifies detachment and past mastery.
- 04Manglik (Kuja) dosha, explained calmlyManglik dosha is a traditional marriage-matching rule about Mars' placement. It is extremely common, has many classical cancellations, and is only one factor among many.
- 05How to read your Kundli in five stepsStart with your rising sign, then the Moon, then the house your current dasha lord sits in, then strong and weak planets, then current transits.
- 06The sidereal zodiac and the ayanamsaWhy Vedic signs sit about 24° behind Western ones, and what the Lahiri ayanamsa measures.
- 07Nakshatras: the 27 lunar mansionsThe Moon's nakshatra is the heart of Vedic timing. Here's how it's measured.
