FAQ
Is Zodian a free Tamil jathagam app?
Yes — Zodian is fully free during the public beta (through Q4 2026). Tamil jathagam, daily rasi palan, panchang, horai, muhurtham and porutham are all included with no paywall. After beta, the core nine tools will always be free; we'll add optional Pro features later.
What does the Zodian Vedic birth chart include?
Your Zodian birth chart includes the Rasi (D-1) chart in both North and South Indian formats, all 16 vargas (Navamsa, Bhava, Dasamsa, Saptamsa and the rest), planet positions with degrees and nakshatra placements, Vimshottari dasa for 120 years, current mahadasa and antardasa, and aspects between planets.
What ayanamsa do you use?
Lahiri (Chitrapaksha) by default, with Drik Ganitha for high-precision panchang — the same precise math that drives temple panchangam pulpits. KP and Raman ayanamsa are togglable in Settings → Calculation.
How accurate are Zodian's panchang and rasi palan?
Zodian uses the Swiss Ephemeris with Lahiri ayanamsa by default. Rasi palan, daily tithi, nakshatra, yoga, karana, rahu kalam and yamagandam are calculated for your local timezone — not pre-baked from a Chennai-only printed panchangam.
How do I find muhurtham (auspicious time) in Zodian?
Open the Calendar tab and tap any date — Zodian shows you the day's tithi, nakshatra, rahu kalam, yamagandam, gulika kalam and the green/yellow/red windows for muhurtham. Tap a window to see why a slot is auspicious or which event it suits (marriage, signing, travel, puja).
Can I check thirumana porutham (marriage compatibility) in Zodian?
Yes. The Match tile runs the traditional 10-porutham checks — Dinam, Ganam, Mahendram, Stree-Deergham, Yoni, Rasi, Rasi-Adhipathi, Vasiyam, Rajju and Vedham — between two saved birth profiles. You get a per-porutham breakdown plus an overall compatibility summary, in Tamil and English side by side.
How does Zodian show today's rahu kalam and yamagandam?
Rahu kalam, yamagandam and gulika kalam are computed for your current location and timezone on the Calendar tab. We calculate them from sunrise to sunset for your latitude, so the windows are accurate to the day and city.
What is Horai and when should I use it?
Horai is the planetary hour that rules a given moment. Each day is split into 24 horai windows, each owned by one of seven planets. Zodian's Horai tile shows the active horai live and highlights upcoming ones — use Surya/Guru/Sukra horai for important calls or signing; avoid Sani/Rahu horai for travel and major decisions.
Does Zodian support Telugu jatakam, Kannada jathaka or Malayalam astrology?
English and Tamil are fully supported today. Hindi is in active translation, targeting Q3 2026. Telugu and Kannada follow once we have native reviewers — DM us if you'd like to help. The underlying calculations work identically for any South Indian tradition; only the on-screen language differs.
Is my birth data private?
Birth profiles live on your device's secure storage (iOS Keychain / Android Keystore). If you opt in to cross-device sync, an encrypted copy is stored in our Firebase project so your phone, tablet and family devices stay in sync. Sync off = nothing leaves your phone. Full details on the privacy page.
Can I export my Vedic chart as PDF?
Yes — open any saved profile, tap the menu, then Export PDF. It includes Rasi, Navamsa, Bhava and a 36-page Vimshottari dasa breakdown.
When does Zodian launch on iOS and Android?
iOS and Android are launching together — no platform left behind. The public beta is open via TestFlight and Google Play Internal Testing now; full launch is later in 2026. Drop your email on the homepage and we'll ping you the moment it goes live on both stores.
I found a bug. What should I do?
Email us with the steps, your iOS / Android version, and a screenshot if you can. We tag every confirmed bug in our public GitHub and ship fixes weekly.
More on the launch list signup — we'll ping you the moment iOS and Android go live.
