Jyotisha is one of the six Vedangas — the limbs of the Veda — and is called the eye of the Vedas, for it lets one see time itself. Kundali Mitra's readings follow the classical granthas below, the palm-leaf manuscripts of the guru-shishya parampara.
यथा शिखा मयूराणां नागानां मणयो यथा ।
तद्वद्वेदाङ्गशास्त्राणां ज्योतिषं मूर्धनि स्थितम् ॥
"As the crest to the peacock and the jewel to the serpent, so stands Jyotisha at the head of the Vedangas." — Vedanga Jyotisha
The fountainhead of Vedic astrology, taught by Sage Parashara to Maitreya. It defines the grahas, rashis, bhavas, planetary dignities, yogas and the Vimshottari dasha system — the very grammar of every kundali. Our chart, dasha and house readings follow the Parashari system.
The legendary collection of ready charts and destinies compiled by Sage Bhrigu, one of the Saptarishis. Its method — reading fate from planetary combinations at birth — inspires our combination-based predictions for career, marriage, children and fortune.
The celebrated classic of Varahamihira, court jewel of Ujjain. Terse and mathematical, it anchors the science of natal astrology — planetary strengths, ascendant readings and yogas — in rigorous astronomy, as we do with real ephemeris calculations.
An ocean of interpretive detail — planets in signs, in houses, in combination. Much of the descriptive richness of traditional readings, including yoni and koota tables used in matching, descends through Saravali's verses.
"The lamp that illuminates results" — famed for its crisp judgements of planets in houses, dashas and doshas, including the classical treatment of Mangal dosha. Our house-by-house answers to life questions follow its style of judgement.
A comprehensive later classic beloved of traditional teachers, weaving Parashara, Varahamihira and Saravali into one garland — consulted for dignities, longevity and the finer rules of interpretation.
The standard work on choosing auspicious moments — and the codifier of the Ashtakoota (36-guna) matching we use: Varna, Vashya, Tara, Yoni, Graha Maitri, Gana, Bhakoot and Nadi.
A beloved 20th-century tradition of practical, humane remedies (upaya). Where our readings note challenges, the spirit of simple remedial action — charity, service, discipline — echoes the Lal Kitab approach.
First the astronomy: from your birth date, time and place we compute the true sidereal positions of the nine grahas and the lagna, using the Lahiri ayanamsa — the national standard of the Indian ephemeris. Then the shastra: those positions are interpreted through the Parashari rules above — whole-sign houses, planetary dignities, yogas, Vimshottari dasha and Ashtakoota matching.
A website can hold the rules of the granthas, but not the intuition of a living guru. Treat these readings as a lamp on the path — for life-altering decisions, sit with a learned astrologer who can weigh your full chart in person.
