Planets at Sunrise on the home page
All nine grahas at a glance, without generating a chart first. The home page now opens with every planet’s position read at sunrise for New Delhi — the moment the Vedic day begins, which is why a panchang and a transit reading for “today” both start there rather than at midnight. Each planet shows its sign, its nakshatra and its exact degree, with badges when it is retrograde, combust, or sitting in a sign that strengthens or weakens it — exalted, debilitated, own sign or moolatrikona. Hover any planet for a plain-language summary of what that combination means, and follow through to the full transit page for the day-by-day picture.

Corrected the centre svastika on North Indian charts
The mark at the centre of the North Indian chart was drawing as a mirror image — its arms bent the wrong way, which makes it the left-facing form rather than the right-facing svastika (卐) that is the auspicious symbol in Hindu tradition. The two are not interchangeable, and the difference matters to anyone who reads the chart closely. It is now drawn correctly everywhere the mark appears: the birth chart, the transit chart and all sixteen divisional charts. Our thanks to the subscriber who spotted it and took the time to report it — it had been wrong for a long time before anyone said so.
Retrograde, Combust & Dignity Check
Until now, answering “when is Mercury combust this year?” meant opening a planet’s year page and reading it off a timeline, and “when is Jupiter exalted?” had no direct answer at all. This tool asks the question directly. Pick a planet, tick the states you care about — retrograde, combust, exalted, debilitated, own sign or moolatrikona — and get every matching window across a range of up to two years. Tick more than one and you get every period matching any of them, so you can find the stretches where a planet is both retrograde and combust at once. Rahu and Ketu are supported with a true or mean node toggle, and every window is computed from the same ephemeris as the transit pages, so the two can never disagree.

All nine grahas now have transit pages
Rahu and Ketu complete the set, so every graha in Vedic astrology now has full transit coverage. For each one you get a live position page showing where it is right now, a year view laying out every sign change across a calendar year, and a date lookup for asking where it stood on any particular day. The lunar nodes carry a true and mean node toggle, because the two conventions can differ by more than a week on ingress dates and different traditions follow different ones. Every page reads from the Swiss Ephemeris with Lahiri ayanamsa, the same source behind the birth charts.

Nakshatra Peyarchi calendars
Sign changes are the coarse view of a planet’s movement; the nakshatra it occupies is the finer one, and it is what most Vedic timing decisions actually turn on. These calendars lay out every nakshatra a planet enters and leaves across a whole year, with exact dates and times rather than day-rounded approximations, and the planet’s own nakshatras marked so the periods where it is most at home stand out at a glance. Available for the Sun, Moon, Mars, Mercury and Venus, with the Moon’s being the busiest — it changes nakshatra roughly once a day.

Baby names browsable by first letter
Vedic tradition assigns each nakshatra and pada a syllable that a child’s name should begin with, and that mapping is now browsable from both directions. Enter a birth date and you get the syllable your child’s nakshatra prescribes, with every curated name that fits it; or ignore the chart entirely and browse straight to any letter you like. The collection runs to 8,861 names spanning Hindu, Sikh, Urdu and regional traditions, and can be filtered by gender as you go.

Every baby name now carries its roots
Most baby-name sites give you a name and a one-line meaning. This was a full pass over the entire library to do rather better than that. All 8,800+ names now carry their Devanagari spelling, the Sanskrit, Punjabi or Urdu root the name actually derives from, a plain-language meaning, and a citation naming the text or tradition it comes from where one exists. Just as importantly, every name is filed by the akshara its pada prescribes rather than by how it happens to be spelled in English — so a name is found under the syllable Vedic tradition actually assigns it, not under whichever Roman letter a transliteration produced. Tap any name to see the whole entry.

South Indian chart style
The square, fixed-sign format used across Tamil Nadu, Kerala, Andhra Pradesh and Karnataka now sits alongside the North Indian diamond and the Western wheel. Unlike the North Indian chart, where the houses stay put and the signs rotate, here the signs are fixed and the ascendant moves — which is why readers trained in one find the other hard to scan. It is a first-class chart style rather than a display option: transit overlays and all divisional charts render in it too, so you can work in the format you were taught in throughout.

Live Moon transit tracking
The first of the transit pages, and still the most consulted. It shows where the Moon is right now — its sign, its nakshatra, the pada within that nakshatra, and how far through it has travelled. Because the Moon moves faster than any other graha, changing nakshatra roughly once a day, the boundaries are computed to the exact minute rather than rounded to a date, which is the difference between a usable muhurat and a missed one. The page also tells you when it next moves and what it moves into.

Interactive North Indian chart
The traditional diamond chart, redrawn as live SVG instead of a flat image. Every planet is now something you can point at: hover it for its exact degree, its nakshatra and pada, and its dignity in that sign. The drishti aspect lines can be toggled on and off, so you can see which planets are casting sight on which houses without having to trace the classical rules by hand. It stays sharp at any zoom, which matters when a house is crowded with four or five planets.

Western Wheel chart
A circular zodiac wheel to sit beside the Vedic diamond, for readers who work in both systems or are arriving from a Western background. It draws the Western aspects — conjunction, sextile, square, trine and opposition — across the wheel, alongside the Ascendant and Moon sign. The same chart page also reports Tattva Balance, showing how the five elements are distributed across your placements, and runs the full dosha set including Mangal, Kaal Sarp and Ganda Moola.
