What is Janam Kundli?Janam Kundli, also known as Janam Patri or birth chart, is a Vedic astrological chart prepared based on the exact date, time, and place of birth. It maps the positions of planets, nakshatras, and zodiac signs at the moment of birth and serves as the foundation for all Jyotish predictions and life guidance.
How is a Janam Kundli calculated?A Janam Kundli is calculated from birth date, time, and location using the astronomy implementation configured for the server. The app applies Lahiri sidereal conversion and whole-sign houses; chart output depends on input data and calculation settings.
What information is needed to create a Janam Kundli?Three pieces of information are essential: date of birth, exact time of birth, and place of birth. The time of birth determines the Ascendant (Lagna), which is the most important point in the chart. Even a few minutes difference can change the Lagna and shift house placements significantly.
What is the difference between Janam Kundli and Horoscope?A Janam Kundli is a fixed birth chart based on the exact moment of birth and never changes. A horoscope is a periodic prediction (daily, weekly, monthly) derived from your birth chart combined with current planetary transits. The Kundli is the foundation; horoscopes are interpretations drawn from it over time.
Which is the most important house in Janam Kundli?The 1st house (Lagna or Ascendant) is considered the most important as it represents the self, personality, health, and overall life direction. The Lagna lord and planets placed in or aspecting the 1st house shape the native's fundamental nature and life trajectory.
What are the 12 houses in a Kundli?The 12 houses represent different life areas: 1st (Self), 2nd (Wealth & Family), 3rd (Siblings & Courage), 4th (Home & Mother), 5th (Children & Education), 6th (Health & Enemies), 7th (Marriage & Partnerships), 8th (Longevity & Transformation), 9th (Fortune & Dharma), 10th (Career & Karma), 11th (Gains & Desires), and 12th (Liberation & Expenses).
What is Lagna in Janam Kundli?Lagna, or the Ascendant, is the zodiac sign rising on the eastern horizon at the exact moment and place of birth. It forms the 1st house of the Kundli and is the reference point from which all other houses are counted. The Lagna determines the overall framework of the birth chart.
How accurate is an AI-generated Janam Kundli?The astronomy implementation depends on server configuration: Swiss Ephemeris is used where configured and a simplified fallback may be used elsewhere. The app applies Lahiri sidereal conversion and whole-sign houses. AI-generated interpretations follow traditional Jyotish concepts but are not independently validated predictions.
