Free Vedic Birth Chart Online — How to Read Your Jatakam
A Vedic birth chart, or jatakam, is the foundation of Jyotish. It shows where the planets were when you were born and how those placements relate to life themes such as career, relationships, health, and dharma. Unlike a simple sun-sign reading, a full chart starts from your lagna (rising sign) and moon, then layers dashas and yogas.
Hindu families in the US often need a chart calculated for a birth city abroad or in America. Purohit AI accepts any place of birth and runs multiple classical engines so you are not limited to a single school of interpretation.
