Before you book.
Q1 How accurate is the chart this site generates?
Planetary longitudes are computed from standard ephemeris series — Meeus' solar and lunar theory for the Sun and Moon, Keplerian elements for Mercury through Saturn — then converted to sidereal positions with the Lahiri (Chitrapaksha) ayanamsa. Sign, nakshatra, pada and house placements match professional software. For a chart used in a real decision, Rajiv re-runs it against a full Swiss Ephemeris before your session.
Q2 I don't know my exact birth time. Can I still get a reading?
Yes. The Moon sign, nakshatra and dasha sequence often survive a rough time; the lagna and the houses do not. Book a session and bring three or four dated life events — Rajiv uses birth-time rectification to narrow the lagna before reading anything else.
Q3 Is a low guna milan score a reason to call off a marriage?
No, and any astrologer who tells you otherwise is selling something. Ashtakoot is eight narrow tests weighted towards the Moon. Bhakoot and Nadi carry fifteen of the thirty-six points and both have well-documented cancellations. A score is a starting point for a conversation about two whole charts, never a verdict.
Q4 What happens in a palm reading if the session is online?
Hasta samudrika needs clear photographs: both palms, natural daylight, fingers slightly apart, plus one of the side of each hand. Upload them when you book or send them on WhatsApp afterwards. Rajiv reads them against your chart rather than on their own.
Q5 Will I be sold gemstones or remedies?
No. If a remedy genuinely follows from the chart it will be named — usually a mantra, a charity, or a discipline of timing — and you can act on it anywhere. Astroveda Healing does not sell stones, yantras or pujas.
Q6 Can I reschedule or cancel?
Reschedule free of charge up to 12 hours before the slot, once. Cancel more than 24 hours before for a full refund; inside 24 hours the session is credited for six months rather than refunded.
Q7 Is my birth data private?
Charts you generate on this page are computed in your browser and are not sent anywhere. Booking details go only to Rajiv and are kept for as long as you remain a client.
