Frequently asked questions
Answers about charts, consultations, payments and your account.
Your account
Do I need an account to cast a chart?
No, you don’t. But it is better to create an account if you want to save your kundali, or download it in future.
Consultations
How much does a consultation cost?
It depends on the Jyotishi — their experience, the time they give you, and the country they are based in. Each Jyotishi sets their own per-minute rate, and you see it on their card before you start.
Is the free intro once per astrologer?
Yes. It is meant for a quick question — enough to understand what your time is holding before you go further.
General
Which ayanamsa and ephemeris do you use?
Charts are calculated with the Swiss Ephemeris, using the Lahiri (Chitrapaksha) ayanamsa by default. In Settings you can switch the ayanamsa to B.V. Raman, Krishnamurti (KP), Sri Yukteshwar or Tropical, change the chart style between North, South and East Indian, and choose mean or true Rahu/Ketu.
Why does my birth time matter so much?
Because that is the moment you were born, and your blueprint is printed in the Antaryami consciousness.
Payments & wallet
Which currency am I charged in?
USD is our standard currency — every rate and balance is shown in US dollars, in the app and on the website.
