What today is, computed for the place you're in.
Panchang, Choghadiya, today's planetary transits, and your Tarot draw — aggregated on one page. The free version uses an India-default location and your DOB if you've signed in. The Paid version computes everything against your chart and your set location.
Section 01 · Panchang
Panchang — today's five limbs.
The Vedic almanac's record of the five limbs of any given day — the lunar phase (Tithi), the weekday (Vara), the constellation the Moon occupies (Nakshatra), the Sun-Moon angular relationship (Yoga), and the half-Tithi unit (Karana).
Section 02 · Choghadiya
Choghadiya — today's auspicious and inauspicious windows.
Daylight is divided into eight roughly-90-minute windows. Amrit, Shubh, and Labh are chosen for important starts. Kaal, Rog, and Shool are traditionally avoided.
| # | Window | Time (IST) | Duration | Verdict | Best for |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 01 | Rog | 06:42 – 08:03 | 1h 21m | ✗ avoid | Postpone new starts |
| 02 | Kaal | 08:03 – 09:24 | 1h 21m | ✗ avoid | Wait for the next window |
| 03 | Shool | 09:24 – 10:44 | 1h 21m | ✗ avoid | Avoid — best left for routine tasks only |
| 04 | Labh | 10:44 – 12:05 | 1h 21m | ✓ auspicious | Business, commerce, contracts |
| 05 | Amrit | 12:05 – 13:26 | 1h 21m | ✓ auspicious | Beginnings, study, prayer, journeys |
| 06 | Char | 13:26 – 14:47 | 1h 21m | — neutral | Travel, movement, errands |
| 07 | Shubh · now | 14:47 – 16:08 | 1h 21m | ✓ auspicious | Auspicious starts, weddings, ceremonies |
| 08 | Sukh | 16:08 – 17:28 | 1h 21m | — neutral | Comfort, family time, routine pleasures |

Section 03 · Gochar
Gochar — today's transits.
Today's planetary positions in the sidereal zodiac, Lahiri ayanamsa. The free version shows the positions and a generic short note. The Paid version reads each transit against your Kundli.
No major planets are retrograde today. Positions are sidereal (Lahiri), computed for the India-default location; the Paid version reads each transit against your Kundli.
Jupiter in your 5th house from the Lagna. Activates educational and creative significations; favourable for new projects requiring patience.
Saturn continues through the 9th from your Moon. Mid-phase of your second Sade Sati; sustained work in faith, father, and fortune significations. Three years two months remaining.
Mercury retrograde in your 7th. Pause on signed agreements and partner negotiations between today and 31 May. Re-read drafts you already sent.
Section 04 · Tarot

The Hanged Man (XII)
Suspension as wisdom. The Hanged Man hangs by one foot, calm — sometimes you must stop and see from a new angle. Surrender what isn't serving.
One single-card draw per calendar day. The interpretation is read off the standard upright/reversed content block in your chosen language.
Same daily draw, plus three-card past-present-future spread or a ten-card Celtic Cross on demand. The Celtic Cross PDF can be saved to your account.
Section 05 · Festivals
Coming up in the next 30 days.
A rigorous four-day fast honoring the Sun God, centered on offering arghya at sunrise and sunset from riverbanks.
The birth anniversary of Guru Nanak — founder of Sikhism.
The full moon of Kartik — Varanasi's ghats lit with a million lamps as "the Diwali of the gods," and Guru Nanak's birthday.
Section 06 · Tier comparison
What changes when you upgrade.
Same page. Same sections. The difference is whether each section reads against a generic location or against your actual chart and your actual location.
| Section | Free | Paid |
|---|---|---|
| Location | India default (New Delhi) for anonymous visitors; your saved location for signed-in Free accounts. | Your saved location, switchable per session — useful when travelling. |
| Panchang | Today's anga values for the location. | Same, plus a Panchang-against-your-chart panel — Tithi compatibility with your birth Tithi, current Nakshatra interaction with your birth Nakshatra. |
| Choghadiya | Today's eight day windows + Rahu Kaal + Yamagandam + Gulika Kaal. | Same, plus windows marked as favourable for your chart's current Dasha period. |
| Transits | Today's planetary positions and a generic short note per movement. | Same, plus "Top three transits for your chart" with a paragraph each in your chosen language. |
| Tarot | One single-card draw per day. | Same, plus on-demand three-card and ten-card Celtic Cross spreads with PDF save. |
| PDF of today | — | One-tap "Save today's snapshot as a PDF" — all four sections, your chart context, downloadable. |
Section 07 · The rationale
Why we put four things on one page.
Pandit-grade daily astrology is not four different lookups. It is one read of the day — the Panchang sets the day's flavour, the Choghadiya tells you which 90-minute window to do what in, the transits tell you which planetary themes are active for you this week, the Tarot lets you ask a specific question.
The four sit naturally together. A household astrologer would tell you the day's Panchang, the available Muhurat windows for any decision you mentioned, what's happening in your current Dasha, and — if you asked — pull a card.
On the Free tier, this page is the closest thing Kaalveda has to a daily horoscope — but it is not a horoscope, because most of it isn't a generic Sun-sign read. The Panchang and Choghadiya are today's, exactly, computed for the location shown. The Tarot is your draw, exactly. The transits panel below is illustrative of the kind of read the Paid tier runs against your actual chart.
Section 08 · A clarification
What this page is not.
This is not a generic daily horoscope. The phrase "Aries today: a stranger will bring news" is not on this page and will not be. Generic Sun-sign content is not a real reading. This page is the personal-chart version.
Sign in once. Today's page is yours every day.
If you already have an account, the dashboard's "Today" tile is the same page, with your chart context already loaded.
