AstralRead

By AstralRead

Overview

AstralRead calculates astrology data precisely instead of guessing it. Give a birth date, place and (ideally) time, and it computes the natal chart with the Swiss Ephemeris: the sign, degree and house of every planet, the North Node and Chiron, the Ascendant and Midheaven, the twelve house cusps (Koch, Placidus or Whole Sign) and the major aspects with their exact orbs. For the Sun, Moon and Ascendant it adds a short note and a link to the matching page of the AstralRead knowledge base, written from classic astrology books. It also lists the tight transits of any day to your chart (only aspects really within orb), shows the sky of a day — Moon sign and phase, lunations, sign changes, retrograde stations and exact aspects — and finds knowledge-base pages for a placement, aspect, house, pattern or transit. Vedic (Jyotish) basics: the sidereal chart (Lahiri ayanamsa, whole-sign houses from the Lagna) with the rashi, house, nakshatra and pada of every graha, and the Vimshottari dasha periods with dates. Pure calculation in a kind tone: no dosha labels, no predictions. In ChatGPT the chart is drawn as a wheel with planets, houses, aspect lines and today's transits; the Vedic chart as a South-Indian square chart with a dasha timeline. Privacy: no account is needed and nothing is stored — birth data is used only for the calculation and is not logged. Astrology here is for self-reflection, not medical, psychological, legal or financial advice. Works in English and Russian.

kb_lookup

ChatGPT

Finds pages of the AstralRead astrology knowledge base for a chart factor and returns each page's title, a one- or two-sentence summary and its link. Understands planets in signs and houses ('Moon in Taurus', 'Mars in 10th house'), Ascendant/MC signs, aspects ('Venus square Saturn'), houses ('7th house'), patterns ('grand trine', 'T-square', 'yod'), North Node and Chiron placements, and transits ('Saturn transit Aries', 'transiting Saturn square Venus', 'Saturn return'). English or Russian.

natal_chart

ChatGPT

Calculates a natal (birth) chart with the Swiss Ephemeris: the exact sign, degree and house of the Sun, Moon, planets, North Node and Chiron; the Ascendant, MC, DSC and IC; the 12 house cusps; and the major aspects between the planets with their orbs. Adds short notes and links from the AstralRead knowledge base for the Sun, Moon and Ascendant signs. Use it when someone asks for their birth chart or about their placements. Needs the birth date, the place (or coordinates) and ideally the birth time. Birth data is used only for this calculation and is not stored or logged.

sky_today

ChatGPT

Returns the sky of one calendar day from the Swiss Ephemeris: the Moon's sign, phase and illumination, lunations and eclipses, planet sign changes, retrograde/direct stations, exact aspects between planets, which planets are retrograde, and every planet's position, plus a link to the AstralRead 'Sky of the day' page. No birth data needed. English uses UTC times, Russian uses Moscow time.

transits_today

ChatGPT

Lists the tight transits of a given day to a natal chart: aspects of the transiting Moon, Sun, Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter and Saturn to the natal planets, Ascendant and MC within 2° (3° for Jupiter and Saturn), plus each planet's current sign and natal house and the Moon phase. Use it for questions like 'what are my transits today' or 'what is happening in my chart this week'. The date defaults to today in the person's time zone. Computed with the Swiss Ephemeris; no forecast text is generated. Birth data is used only for this calculation and is not stored or logged.

vedic_chart

ChatGPT

Calculates a Vedic (Jyotish) birth chart with the Swiss Ephemeris: sidereal zodiac with the Lahiri ayanamsa, whole-sign houses from the Lagna (Ascendant), the rashi, degree and house of the nine grahas (Sun to Saturn, Rahu as the mean node and Ketu opposite), and the nakshatra, pada and nakshatra lord of the Lagna and every graha, with the traditional symbol and deity of the Moon's nakshatra. Use it for questions like 'what is my nakshatra', 'my Vedic chart' or 'my rashi / Moon sign in Jyotish'. Pure calculation: no doshas, yogas or predictions. Birth data is used only for this calculation and is not stored or logged.

vimshottari_dasha

ChatGPT

Calculates the Vimshottari dasha periods of a birth chart (Swiss Ephemeris, Lahiri ayanamsa): the Moon's nakshatra at birth, the balance of the first Mahadasha, the full Mahadasha sequence from birth with start and end dates, and the Mahadasha, Antardasha and Pratyantardasha running on a given date plus the next two Antardashas. Use it for questions like 'which Mahadasha am I in' or 'when does my Saturn dasha start'. Dates use a 365.25-day year. The result lists the classical themes of the running periods, not predictions. Birth data is used only for this calculation and is not stored or logged.
