Questions astrologers ask
Which doshas does it check?
Eight marriage doshas: Vedha, Laata, Paata, Kranti Samya, Dagdha Tithi, Upgraha, Ekargala and Mrityu Panchaka. It also checks Lagna Shuddhi and Tribala Shuddhi, which count five times and twice as much as a dosha.
Which ayanamsha does it use?
Sidereal positions with the Lahiri ayanamsha, calculated for the coordinates of the wedding venue.
How is a wedding window scored?
At every moment, each active dosha takes away between a quarter of a point and a full point, depending on its strength. Lagna Shuddhi and Tribala Shuddhi add or take away in the same way, multiplied by five and two. A window scores as its weakest moment, and a day scores as its best window.
Why does the ceremony length matter?
A ceremony lasts longer than an instant. You set the shortest window you need, from 15 minutes to 12 hours, and a window only ranks well if it stays strong from start to finish.
Does a high score mean a date is auspicious?
Not by itself. The score ranks moments within the dates you searched; it is not a verdict on the date. Every window shows the doshas and shuddhis behind its score, so the final judgment stays with you.
What can I search?
Any venue, entered by latitude and longitude, and any range of up to 366 days between 1980 and 2040. Times are shown in IST or UTC.
Can I give my client a report?
Yes. The results page creates a PDF with the birth details, a calendar of the whole range, the top days with their windows, and the doshas and shuddhis active in each window.
What happens to my clients' details?
An unfinished entry stays in your browser for up to 30 days. When you run an analysis, the details are sent to our server to do the calculation. Logs leave out names and birth details, and an encrypted copy of a request may be kept for up to seven days to investigate errors.
Is it free?
Yes. Shubh Vivah Muhurat is in a free preview, and there is no sign-up.
