Your reading at a glance

✦Your strengths

Moon Your Moon sits in its own sign, Cancer, in Pushya, the star of nourishment. Your feelings are steady, and you look after people well.
Jupiter Jupiter, the planet that rules your chart, sits in its own sign at the top of your chart. The classical texts call this Hamsa yoga: a mark of respect, learning and good conduct.
MarsSaturn Mars is in its own sign and Saturn is at its strongest. You have drive, and you have the patience to finish what you start.

Hamsa yoga: Phaladeepika ch.6 v.1Jupiter in its own sign, in an angle

The one thing to keep in mind, from the Niti reading of Pushya

Feed others without losing yourself.

You give a great deal, and that can leave you empty. The caregiver needs care too. In everyday life: let other people do things for you. Receiving is part of giving.

Honest by design

What a reading can, and cannot, do

A reading shows your nature, your tendencies, and the seasons of life when certain themes come forward. It cannot tell you the date something will happen.

We tested the classical timing rules against real lives. They didn't predict events, so we don't sell dates. How we read

NITI READINGSample · invented chart · born 14 March 1984, 06:40, London

Marriage and partnership

A hard finding, stated plainly

Mercury Mercury rules your seventh house, the house of marriage. Your Mercury sits in Pisces, the sign where Mercury is weakest. The classical texts read a weak seventh-house ruler as strain in partnership: misunderstandings, and words that land harder than you meant them.

❋What softens it

Jupiter Jupiter rules the sign your Mercury sits in, and your Jupiter stands at the top of your chart, in an angle. The classical texts say that when this happens, the weakness is cancelled. So the strain is real, but it is not the whole story.

Phaladeepika ch.7 v.29: the ruler of a weak planet's sign in an angle from the rising sign cancels the weakness

Seasons, not datesThe themes of a period, never "you will marry in June".

Guidance, not guaranteesThe texts guide. The decisions stay yours.

Plain wordsEvery finding explained, with its source.

Nothing held backThe written reading is complete. Nothing is kept for a call.

Who reads your chart

Capt. Anirvan Chakravarti

Airline captain, 25 years in command. A student of Vedic astrology for more than a decade, and the author of The 27 Nakshatras.

Command flying taught him checklists, cross-checks, and to trust nothing until it is tested. He reads charts the same way: every finding traced to the text it comes from.

Questions

Before you book

Does a reading tell me what will happen, and when?

No. It reads character, tendencies and the seasons of life from the classical texts. It gives no dates of events. You don't need to know anything about astrology: every term is explained where it appears.

Why no dates of events?

We tested the classical timing rules against real lives. They didn't predict events, so we don't sell dates. We give you the seasons instead.

How long does a reading take?

Your PDF arrives by email within 3 working days of payment. Each reading is prepared with our reading system from the classical texts; Capt. Anirvan reads, corrects and signs off every one before it is sent.

How does booking work?

You send a request, choosing an hour if it is a session. Capt. Anirvan confirms it personally and sends a secure payment link. Once you pay, your hour is booked, or your reading is prepared. Everything is paid in advance.

Can I get a refund?

Every reading and session is paid in advance. If we cannot deliver your reading, or cannot hold your session, you receive a full refund. Refunds are not given because of disagreement with a reading's content once it has been delivered, or once a session has been held. This does not affect any legal right you have in your country that cannot be excluded.
