Generate your Vedic birth chart with accurate planetary positions
A Kundli (also spelled Kundali), or Janam Kundali, is your Vedic astrological birth chart. It is a celestial map showing the exact positions of the Sun, Moon, and planets at the precise moment and location of your birth. The Kundli serves as the foundation for all Vedic astrological analysis, including personality assessment, career guidance, relationship compatibility, and life predictions.
The word “Kundli” comes from the Sanskrit word “Kundala,” meaning coil or ring, referring to the circular representation of planetary positions. In South India, it is commonly known as Jathagam (Tamil) or Jatakam (Malayalam/Telugu). The chart maps 12 houses (Bhavas), each governing different aspects of life from self-identity to spirituality.

The zodiac sign rising on the eastern horizon at birth. It determines your physical appearance, personality projection, and life direction. The Lagna is the anchor point of the entire chart.
The zodiac sign occupied by the Moon at birth. In Vedic astrology, the Moon sign is more important than the Sun sign for predictions, as it reflects your mind, emotions, and subconscious patterns.
The lunar mansion where the Moon is placed at birth. Your Janma Nakshatra determines the starting Dasha period and deeply influences your character, talents, and life themes.
The exact degree, sign, and house placement of all nine Vedic planets (Navagraha): Sun, Moon, Mars, Mercury, Jupiter, Venus, Saturn, Rahu, and Ketu.
A Kundli, also known as Janam Kundali or Vedic birth chart, is a map of the sky at the exact time and place of your birth. It shows the positions of the Sun, Moon, and planets across the 12 houses and zodiac signs. In Vedic astrology, the Kundli is the foundation for all predictions about personality, career, relationships, health, and spiritual path.
Birth time accuracy is critical because the Ascendant (Lagna) changes zodiac signs approximately every 2 hours. Even a few minutes' difference can change your Lagna, house placements, and Dasha periods. For the most accurate results, use the time recorded on your birth certificate or hospital records.
Vedic Kundli uses the sidereal zodiac (actual star positions with Lahiri Ayanamsa), while Western astrology uses the tropical zodiac (based on seasons). This creates approximately 23 degrees of difference. Vedic astrology also includes Nakshatras, Dasha system, and divisional charts not found in Western astrology.
