Enter your birth date, local time, and birthplace to create a free sidereal (Lahiri by default) Vedic birth chart. Check the lagna, Moon nakshatra, D-1, D-9 navamsa, D-10, and Vimshottari dasha before choosing AI interpretation.
Enter your birth date, recorded local time, and birthplace. OpenFate calculates a sidereal (Lahiri by default), whole-sign Kundli. It includes the D-1 chart, lagna, nine grahas, Moon nakshatra, D-9 navamsa, D-10, Jaimini karakas, raw Sarvashtakavarga bindus, and Vimshottari periods when the birth time supports them. The basic chart is free. Calculation remains separate from optional AI interpretation.
What You Get
A complete South-Indian style chart with all nine grahas, nakshatras, padas, and all twelve houses in whole-sign order.
D-9 navamsa and D-10 dasamsa shown with their derivation — each varga's own lagna, house lords, and where every lord sits.
Raw SAV bindus plus three chart-selected, human-first takeaways: what may feel familiar, what it has protected, where it can become tiring, and one next step.
Best For

How to Use a Free Vedic Birth Chart Calculator
A Vedic birth chart calculator converts your birth date, exact local time, and birthplace into a sidereal kundli. OpenFate defaults to Lahiri ayanamsa and uses whole-sign houses, then derives the chart layers shown on the page from the same astronomical inputs.
The free chart keeps placements and derivations separate from interpretation. Its guide names the calculated anchors first. It then offers a familiar feeling, a possible benefit, a point of strain, and a next step. This is labeled OpenFate editorial reflection, so you can reject any lens that does not match reality.
What the Kundli Calculator Computes
The result includes the D-1 rashi chart, lagna, nine grahas, signs, houses, nakshatras, and padas. It also shows D-9 and D-10 divisional charts, Jaimini karakas, Sarvashtakavarga figures, and the Vimshottari dasha timeline supported by the recorded birth data.
A Beginner-Friendly Order for Reading the Chart
With a reliable birth time, start with lagna and its lord. Then check the Moon sign and Moon nakshatra. Review D-1 placements before using D-9 for traditional commitment themes or D-10 for vocation themes. Treat the active dasha as a timing lens, not an event guarantee.
Why Vedic and Western Charts Can Show Different Signs
This calculator uses the sidereal zodiac with the selected ayanamsa (Lahiri by default). OpenFate's Western birth chart uses the tropical zodiac, so the same birth can produce different sign labels even though both calculations begin with the same date, time, and place.
Why Exact Birth Time and Place Matter
Birthplace sets the timezone and geographic frame. The recorded minute affects lagna and other time-dependent layers. If time is unknown, even a planet's sign or nakshatra can cross a boundary during that civil date. The tool therefore labels retained placements as date-level estimates. It also suppresses unsupported house, varga, karaka, and dasha conclusions.
Keep Chart Calculation Separate from Interpretation
The calculator creates the chart from the recorded birth inputs and declared Jyotish settings. Optional AI can explain that stored output later. It does not supply a missing birth time, change a planetary placement, or make traditional symbols scientifically predictive.
Verify the recorded local birth time and birthplace.
Check the sidereal zodiac, selected ayanamsa, whole-sign houses, and node setting.
Lower confidence in lagna, houses, vargas, karakas, and dasha when time is uncertain.
Compare calculated chart facts before comparing written interpretations.
How does Vedic compatibility work?
Kundli matching compares both Moon nakshatras through Ashtakoota Guna Milan and checks Mangal Dosha. The points are a traditional guide, not a verdict on a marriage. Kundli matching
How OpenFate calculates and explains
Follow the editorial standards, shared validation process and the exact method used for this system.
Verify the foundations of your Vedic reading
Separate a calculated position, a traditional rule and a reading about your life. Each has a different kind of evidence.
Optional ±5/±15-minute checks recalculate at one-minute intervals and show changed ascendant, varga, house and Moon fields. They do not certify every instant between samples or rectify birth time. Unknown time remains unsupported.
Choose Lahiri, Raman or Krishnamurti ayanamsa and mean or true nodes for new charts. Defaults stay unchanged. Krishnamurti ayanamsa is not a KP system. Whole-sign natal houses, a 365.25-day dasha year and Sripathi strength remain separate conventions.
The public book comparison checks selected components using published inputs. It is not independent verification of complete Shadbala or Bhava Bala totals. Missing precise-time or transit-service evidence remains unavailable.
Read a complete recorded example
Five language examples show full generated reports with same-report follow-ups. They share one synthetic birth, not five independent charts. The recording states which calculation evidence was available and discloses editorial corrections.
From your chart to a connected reading
Start with the free chart. A full reading connects the available chart evidence to your questions; in-depth follow-ups use the same saved report.
What the reading can cover
Core tendencies and competing influences
Strengths, constraints and growth
Work, resources and D1/D10 evidence
Relationships and everyday patterns
Current and upcoming dasha periods
Practical reflection and next steps
Themes and depth depend on the available evidence, not a fixed chapter count. Unknown birth time removes time-dependent claims. Payment buys synthesis and follow-ups, not more accurate astronomical positions.
Start with the free chart. Review the reading scope and example before deciding whether a deeper interpretation is useful to you.
Free chart
Inspect sidereal placements, Moon nakshatra, divisional charts and supported Vimshottari periods before choosing a reading. Basic chart calculation needs no purchase or sign-up.
Complete reading
The reading connects the natal chart with available divisional, strength and period evidence. Recorded examples show their generation-time scope; older examples do not demonstrate every newly added calculation.
A question to explore
“What does the natal chart support, what does D10 add, and what conflicts with this career theme?” Deeper questions should identify the saved evidence and its limits.
Inputs and uncertainty
Unknown time cannot support houses or fine divisional claims. Approximate time remains approximate. Minute-by-minute comparison, when selected, tests nearby placements; it does not establish your true birth time.
Saving and access
The completed reading is saved to your account with its original chart context. New settings do not rewrite an old report. AI readings and deeper questions may require credits; check current pricing and refund terms before paying.
Free charts and paid readings use the same chart calculations. Payment provides a complete interpretation; follow-up questions are charged according to your plan. Traditional readings support self-reflection and do not guarantee future events.
Vedic Chart Tool Questions
Common questions about the free Vedic chart calculator and its computation basis.
What is my Vedic astrology sign?
In Vedic astrology your main signs are your lagna (rising sign) and your Moon sign, read in the sidereal zodiac. Because the sidereal zodiac sits about 24 degrees behind the tropical one, many people find their Vedic Sun and Moon signs one sign earlier than in Western astrology. Enter your birth details above to see both.
Is this chart calculated with the sidereal or tropical zodiac?
Sidereal, with Lahiri as the default ayanamsa. Lahiri is a widely used Indian sidereal convention and this calculator's default setting, not the only convention in Jyotish. Placements can therefore differ from both tropical charts and calculators using another ayanamsa.
What are the D-9 and D-10 charts shown below the main chart?
They are divisional (varga) charts. In the interpretive scheme declared here, D-9 is used as a traditional lens for commitment and relationship themes, while D-10 is used for vocation and public-role themes. These are interpretive topics, not measured outcomes.
Do I need my exact birth time?
A reliable time is required for lagna, houses, varga lagnas, karakas, and the displayed dasha timeline. If time is unknown, the tool suppresses those layers and labels remaining sign and nakshatra output as date-level estimates because a boundary can occur within the day.
What is the difference between this free chart and the full reading?
The free tool includes the calculated chart, derivations, declared heuristics, and a human-first guide grounded in selected chart anchors. The full reading adds AI synthesis, but it must preserve the same chart facts, use conditional language, and avoid invented scores or guaranteed outcomes.
Is the Vedic astrology chart calculator free and available without sign-up?
Yes. You can create and inspect the basic Vedic chart without signing up. AI interpretation and follow-up questions are separate and may require an account and reading credits.
Why do two Vedic astrology calculators show different results?
First check the birth time, coordinates, and time-zone conversion. Then compare the sidereal or tropical zodiac, ayanamsa, house system, node setting, ephemeris, and rounding rules. Align those inputs and settings before comparing charts.
