Your free Kundali, Horoscope, and Panchang — all in one place.

Soul, Authority, Father, Government

Surya is the Atmakaraka — the primary indicator of the soul's purpose and vitality. As a Sattvik Graha, its benefic or malefic expression depends on house lordship and aspects received, not its natural character alone. Surya's 6-year Mahadasha focuses life energy on identity, career visibility, and authority.

Mind, Mother, Emotions, Fluids

Chandra governs the Manas (conscious mind) and is the fastest-moving of all Grahas, completing a Rashi transit in approximately 2.5 days. Moon strength (Paksha Bala) — whether waxing or waning — significantly modifies its capacity to support emotional resilience and native intelligence.

Energy, Siblings, Courage, Land, Surgery

Mangal owns two signs — Fiery Mesha and Watery Vrischika — representing the spectrum from assertive direct action to deeply strategic psychological force. Mangal in the 1st, 4th, 7th, 8th, or 12th house forms Mangal Dosha (Kuja Dosha), which requires specific chart-level assessment before its marital implications are interpreted.

Intellect, Speech, Commerce, Mathematics, Skin

Budha is the Graha of discriminative intelligence (Viveka) — classification, analysis, and communication. As the closest planet to the Sun, Budha is frequently combust (Asta), which can produce rapid thought with inadequate grounding during its Dasha. Retrograde Budha often recapitulates intellectual themes the native has previously bypassed.

Wisdom, Progeny, Guru, Dharma, Wealth

Guru is the most natural Dharma Graha — its transit into a Rashi signals a 12-month window of expanded possibility for the life areas that Rashi governs in the Lagna chart. Guru's 5th, 7th, and 9th house aspects are the most benefic full aspects in classical Jyotish, capable of tempering even difficult chart placements.

Relationships, Luxury, Arts, Semen, Spouse

Shukra holds the longest Mahadasha among classical planets at 20 years, making its natal strength and house lordship especially consequential for life quality during this extended period. Its Kalatras (marital significations) are assessed through Rashi, Navamsha placement, and aspects received from Shani or Mangal.

Discipline, Longevity, Masses, Karma, Delays

Shani is a Tamas Graha with the slowest visible orbital speed — approximately 2.5 years per Rashi. Its transit over the natal Moon across three consecutive signs (Sade Sati) is the most discussed 7.5-year transit period in popular Jyotish — demanding disciplined reorientation in Moon-governed life areas.

Obsession, Foreign, Amplification, Technology

Rahu is the Moon's ascending node — a mathematical point where the lunar orbital path crosses the ecliptic. It amplifies and distorts the energies of whatever Rashi, Nakshatra, and house it occupies, creating intense desire and ambition without the satiety mechanism physical planets carry. Rahu Mahadasha (18 years) is frequently the most transformative period in a chart.

Liberation, Isolation, Past Karma, Spirituality

Ketu, the Moon's descending node, is always exactly 180° from Rahu. While Rahu amplifies material hunger, Ketu marks areas where past-life satiation creates detachment or disorientation in this life. Ketu in the 12th or 8th Bhava is considered conducive to deep spiritual dissolution; in the 10th or 2nd, it can disrupt material accumulation while redirecting toward unconventional authority.
