Birth Chart (Janam Kundli)
View your complete birth chart (Janam Kundli). Ascendant, nine planets (Sun, Moon, Mars, Mercury, Jupiter, Venus, Saturn, Rahu, Ketu), nakshatras and houses, free with precise astronomical calculations.
A birth chart (janam kundli) maps the positions of 9 grahas (Sun, Moon, Mars, Mercury, Jupiter, Venus, Saturn, Rahu, Ketu) at the exact time and place of birth. The ascendant (lagna) shifts roughly every 2 hours, determining all 12 house cusps and planetary house placements (Brihat Parashara Hora Shastra, Ch. 5-7). Nakshara computes positions using Swiss Ephemeris (Moshier analytical ephemeris) and Lahiri ayanamsa, the official standard of India's Calendar Reform Committee (1955). All calculations are cross-verified against NASA eclipse data and the Indian Astronomical Ephemeris (IAE).

What's in a birth chart?
A birth chart maps the exact position of every planet in the sky at your birth time and place. The first thing it fixes is the ascendant (lagna): the sign rising in the east at that moment, which sets the starting point for all twelve houses.
The nine grahas (Sun, Moon, Mars, Mercury, Jupiter, Venus, Saturn, Rahu and Ketu) then fall into their own signs and houses. Each house is traditionally tied to an area of life: career, wealth, marriage, health, and so on.
The nakshatra (lunar mansion) the Moon sits in at birth is your janma nakshatra, one of 27. It underlies both the classical naming convention and kundli matching.
Why is the birth chart free?
We believe everyone deserves access to their basic astrological information. A birth chart shows your planetary positions. It is a fact, not a service. Our paid services are available for detailed analysis and kundli matching.

FAQ
Questions about your birth chart
What exactly is a janam kundli? +
A janam kundli (birth chart) is a chart of the sky at your exact birth time and place: it records which sign and house the Sun, Moon, and other planets occupied at that moment.
Why does the exact birth time matter so much? +
The ascendant changes roughly every 2 hours, so even a 15-20 minute error in birth time can shift the ascendant and every house that follows. Precision in, precision out.
Is a birth chart the same as kundli matching? +
No. A birth chart shows one person’s planets. Kundli matching (Guna Milan) compares two birth charts against each other to produce a 36-point marriage-compatibility score.
Why is this birth chart free? +
We believe everyone deserves free access to their basic astrological facts: planetary positions are data, not a paid service. Deeper analysis and kundli matching are what we charge for.
