FAQ
Questions, answered
What is a nakshatra?
The sky divided into 27 parts of 13°20′ each. Your Moon's nakshatra is the oldest key to character in Indian astrology. It is one part of your reading, not all of it.
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.
What if I don't know my birth time?
Tell us what you know and where it came from. Some parts of a reading need an exact time; we tell you which, and leave them out rather than guess.
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.
What times are sessions held?
Every day, starting between 2 pm and 11:15 pm India time: one hour each, with a 15-minute break between. The booking page shows them in your own time, and hides hours that would fall in your night. If none fit, tell us when suits you.
What happens in the Foresight Session?
Sixty minutes online with Capt. Anirvan. He walks you through your reading and your questions, and gives his own view on the seasons ahead and on direction. That view is his personal judgement as a practitioner, not a tested method, and he gives no promises of dates. Sessions are held in English, or in Bengali or Hindi if you ask when you book.
What languages do you work in?
The written reading is in English today. Spanish, Portuguese (Brazil), French and Japanese readings are on their way. Sessions are held primarily in English; Capt. Anirvan can also give a reading in Bengali or Hindi. Ask when you book.
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.
Is my information private?
Your birth details are used for your reading only, and never enter our research without your written permission. We never publish a client's chart.
Can I order for someone else?
Only with their consent. For a partner reading, give us your partner's birth details and email. We write to them and ask them to confirm before we begin.
Is this the astrology I know from magazines?
No. Vedic astrology uses the sidereal zodiac, about 24° behind the Western one, so your Sun sign may differ from the one you know. It also reads the Moon's star, the nakshatra, closely.
Is this therapy or medical advice?
No. If you are going through a crisis, please speak to a doctor, a counsellor or a local helpline first.
