How to use this library
How is the library organized?
Six shelves: the chart, the nine planets, yogas and doshas, time, marriage and matching, and further reading. Open one shelf to see its sections. Search if you already know the name.
What does In my kundli show?
When a chart is saved in this browser, the toggle lists yogas and doshas that are present, one line for each planet, and the current dasha. It does not list every article.
Are the glossary and Living Jyotish the same?
A glossary page defines a classical idea. A Living Jyotish page reads one placement, such as Saturn in the 7th house.
