Starts are inclusive and ends exclusive. Dates include the local time and offset; the first major period can begin before birth because its remaining balance is calculated from the birth Moon.
At the result’s stated calculation instant, the schedule places Rahu in the active major period. An exact-time result contains major and subperiod dates under the declared 365.25-day year. What the period calculation counts
Only three traditional subjects are used here. Strength, aspects, cancellations and event timing are not inferred from one house or occupant. These are prompts for reflection, not established facts about your future.
Your own chart opens with a blank form. Sample details are never saved or carried forward.
A sample, not a person's story
This record was chosen for a reproducible demonstration. It is not a customer, testimonial or prediction. The positions, diagrams and period dates below come from the same engine as your free Kundli; the explanatory copy is authored, not a live chat answer.
How to read it
Begin with the birth inputs and their time zone. Then follow the Moon rashi and nakshatra, the D1 houses and the D9 division. The reading map links the calculated names to their definitions. Major and subperiods describe a traditional schedule; the example uses a fixed calculation instant of 17 October 2026 at 12:00 IST, not a live forecast.
Your result can be different
The demonstration uses an exact time. When you choose approximate or unknown, your result shows candidates and withholds a single ascendant, house chart and period schedule. Making your own chart starts with a blank form. Nothing from this example is copied into your account, profile or conversation.
