Vedic astrology software for Windows

A complete Jyotish workbench on the Swiss Ephemeris 2.10 — nakshatras, Vimshottari dasha, vargas, ashtakavarga, doshas and planetary hours, with eight ayanamsas including Lahiri and KP. Not a bolt-on: the sidereal engine lives in the same app as the Western toolkit, so you can move between frames in a click. Free to try on Windows 11.

The Jyotish suite

Everything the parampara asks for

Nakshatras & padas

All 27 nakshatras with padas, lords and the 28 lunar mansions for Moon-based timing.

Vimshottari dasha

Mahadasha through antardasha and deeper, dated across the life span.

Vargas (divisionals)

The full set of divisional charts from D-1 to the higher vargas for fine analysis.

Ashtakavarga

Bhinnashtakavarga and sarvashtakavarga bindus for strength and transit assessment.

Doshas & yogas

Mangal (Kuja) dosha, Kaal Sarpa and more, with clear on-chart highlights.

Planetary hours (horā)

Day and night horā, choghadiya-style timing and muhurta support.

One frame or both

Sidereal and tropical, without a workaround

Switch to the sidereal zodiac and choose your ayanamsa; the whole chart, dashas and vargas recompute instantly. KP practitioners get the Krishnamurti ayanamsa with Placidus houses and true nodes; classical Jyotish gets Whole Sign and Lahiri. Every position is drawn by a custom high-DPI engine, crisp on any monitor.

  • 8 ayanamsas — Lahiri, KP, Fagan/Bradley, Raman, custom and more.
  • 28 house systems including Whole Sign, with high-latitude fallback.
  • North & South Indian and Western wheel presentations, print-ready to PDF.
