The Cited Vedic Astrology API
The world's astrology APIs hand you a verdict and ask you to trust it. Ours hands you the verdict and the classical śloka it stands on — computed to Swiss-Ephemeris precision, cited to the canon, never invented.
Why we're unlike anything else
Any service can return “Maṅgala doṣa: present.” VedicSpace returns the finding, the exact rule it fired, and the verse, text, and line that rule comes from — with a verified flag when we could locate the source and an honest pending when we couldn't. Nothing is asserted without a citation. Nothing is invented to fill a gap.
// every ruling ships with prove_refs { "rule_id": "MANGAL-07", "finding": "Kuja in the 7th from lagna", "verdict": "doṣa present", "prove_refs": [{ "citation": "Praśna Mārga XVII.14 — Mars aspecting the 7th delays union", "text": "Prasna Marga", "line": 784, "verified": true }], "cancellations": [ /* … with their own cites */ ] }
Every doṣa, yoga, daśā verdict and muhūrta ruling links to its classical source — BPHS, Phaladīpikā, Muhūrta Cintāmaṇi, Praśna Mārga, Jaimini Sūtra. The honesty law: where the texts are silent, the API stays silent.
Real geocentric positions to ±0.01°, Lahiri (Chitrapakṣa) ayanāṃśa, whole-sign houses — the same engine an observatory trusts, not a lookup table or an approximation.
Ask “when does marriage ripen?” and get the causal chain — house → lord → dignity → strength gate → daśā timing — each link computed from the chart, each cited. No black box, no vibes.
Pañcāṅga, kuṇḍalī, all ṣoḍaśavarga, every daśā to prāṇa, śaḍbala, aṣṭakavarga, muhūrta, matchmaking, praśna, varṣaphala, transits — 90+ engines, 500+ yogas & doṣas, English and Hindi.
What the API covers
The one thing no AI can do
Ask any general-purpose model whether a chart carries Maṅgala doṣa and it answers with total confidence — and nothing you can check. Ask ours, and the verdict arrives with the exact classical passage it stands on. Open it and read it yourself.
“No — you two are perfectly compatible, nothing to worry about!”
✕ no source · cannot be verified · may be inventedDoṣa present — Kuja stands in the 7th (madana) from the wedding lagna.
“A planet in the 7th (madana) from the wedding lagna — or from the Moon — forbids the marriage” (jāmitra doṣa). The actual passage, pulled from the OCR’d classical library the engine is grounded in. Not a summary. The text.
