## Frequently Asked Questions

### What is the Vimshottari Dasha system?
The Vimshottari Dasha is a 120-year planetary period system unique to Vedic astrology. It divides life into sequential periods (Mahadashas) governed by each of the nine planets, based on the Moon's Nakshatra at birth. This allows precise timing of life events down to sub-periods (Antardasha) and sub-sub-periods (Pratyantar Dasha).

### What is the difference between D1, D9, and D10 charts?
The D1 (Rashi chart) is the main birth chart showing natal planetary positions. The D9 (Navamsa) divides each sign into nine parts — primarily used for marriage, fortune, and spiritual analysis. The D10 (Dasamsa) divides each sign into ten parts — used for career, profession, and public life analysis. All three are analyzed together for a comprehensive reading.

### What is Mangal Dosh?
Mangal Dosh (also called Manglik Dosha or Kuja Dosha) occurs when Mars is placed in the 1st, 2nd, 4th, 7th, 8th, or 12th house of the birth chart or Navamsa. It is traditionally associated with challenges in marriage, particularly aggression or incompatibility between spouses. Its severity depends on the Lagna, the strength of Mars, and cancellation conditions (Mangal Dosh Bhang).

### What is Sade Sati?
Sade Sati is a 7.5-year period when Saturn transits through the sign before, the same sign as, and the sign after the natal Moon sign. It occurs roughly every 30 years and is associated with karmic restructuring, challenges, and often significant life lessons. AstroPath's Sade Sati Calculator identifies the current phase and provides guidance.

### What is a Raja Yoga?
Raja Yoga is a powerful planetary combination indicating authority, success, and elevated social status. In Parashari Jyotish, Raja Yogas are most commonly formed when the lords of Kendra houses (1st, 4th, 7th, 10th) conjoin or exchange signs with lords of Trikona houses (1st, 5th, 9th). The more powerful the planets involved and the closer they are to the Lagna, the stronger the Raja Yoga.

### What is Kundli Matching (Guna Milan)?
Kundli Matching assesses marriage compatibility between two people by comparing their birth charts using the Ashtakoot (8-koot) system. The 8 categories are: Varna (1 pt), Vashya (2 pts), Tara (3 pts), Yoni (4 pts), Graha Maitri (5 pts), Gana (6 pts), Bhakoot (7 pts), Nadi (8 pts) — totaling 36 points. A score above 18 is considered acceptable; above 24 is good; above 30 is excellent. Doshas (Nadi Dosh, Bhakoot Dosh, Gana Dosh) are checked separately.

### How accurate is Vedic astrology if my birth time is uncertain?
Birth time accuracy is critical in Vedic astrology because the Lagna (Ascendant) changes approximately every 2 hours and the Moon moves about 1 degree every 2 hours. An error of even 15–30 minutes can shift the Lagna or the house cusps. If birth time is unknown, astrologers use Prashna (horary) or Janma Lagna rectification techniques. AstroPath reports require exact birth time for full accuracy.

### What is the Atmakaraka planet?
The Atmakaraka is the planet with the highest degree in a birth chart (ignoring Rahu and Ketu in most Parashari interpretations, though included in Jaimini). It represents the soul's primary lesson and deepest desire in this lifetime. The Atmakaraka's sign, house, and conjunctions reveal the karmic theme the person must engage with most deeply.

### What is Vedic astrology?
Vedic astrology (Jyotish Shastra) is an ancient Indian system of astrology based on the sidereal zodiac. It uses the precise positions of planets at the time and place of birth to create a birth chart (Kundli) that maps life events, personality traits, and karmic patterns.

### How is AstroPath different from free horoscope websites?
AstroPath generates personalized reports based on your exact birth time, date, and location using the Parashari system. Free horoscope sites typically provide generic sun-sign predictions. Our reports analyze divisional charts, Shadbala, Dasha periods, and yogas — thousands of data points unique to your chart.

### What information do I need to get a report?
You need your exact date of birth, time of birth (as precise as possible), and place of birth. Birth time accuracy is critical as it determines house cusps and planetary positions.

### How quickly are reports delivered?
Reports are generated and delivered within 5 minutes of purchase.

### Is my birth data kept private?
Yes. Birth data is used only for report generation and is stored securely. It is never shared with third parties.
