Ask the sky
one question.
No birth date. No birth time. The moment you ask is the chart — the oldest shortcut in Jyotisha.
A prashna chart is cast for the exact moment and place the question is asked — that's why we need where you are, and nothing else. No birth details.

The branch of astrology that needs nothing from you
Most astrology begins with your birth details — and most people don't know their birth time. Prashna is the classical answer to exactly that problem. When a seeker arrives with one burning question, the Jyotishi casts a fresh chart for the instant the question lands: the ascendant rising at that moment, the Moon's nakshatra, the condition of the lagna lord. The sky of that moment is read as the reply.
It sounds too simple, and it is anything but — Prashna Marga and Shatpanchashika, the classics of the branch, are among the most technical texts in Jyotisha. The premise is the same one behind all of it: moments have character, and a question chooses its moment.
How Acharya reads your prashna
The chart is computed with the Swiss Ephemeris and the Lahiri ayanamsa — the same engine, validated against classical worked examples, that runs Acharya's full readings. The reading follows the classical significators: the lagna lord's strength and house, the Moon's house and nakshatra lord, the void-of-course Moon. Then it is translated into plain words — with the honest conditions attached, never a guarantee.
Common questions
What is a prashna kundali?
Prashna (Sanskrit for 'question') is the horary branch of Vedic astrology. Instead of your birth chart, the astrologer casts a chart for the exact moment a question is asked — the sky at that instant is read as the answer. It is one of the oldest branches of Jyotisha, with classics like Prashna Marga devoted entirely to it.
Why don't you need my birth details?
Because the question itself is the birth. The chart belongs to the moment of asking, at the place of asking — which is why we ask where you are, and nothing else. That also makes prashna the one reading you can get when your birth time is unknown.
What kinds of questions work best?
Specific, situational ones: will I get this job, should I sign this lease, will the deal close, is this the right week to travel. Life-arc questions — career direction, marriage patterns, health constitution — belong to your janam patri (birth chart), which reads your whole life rather than one moment.
How is the answer decided?
The classical way: the condition of the ascendant lord (strong and well-placed inclines toward yes; weak, combust, or in the 6th, 8th or 12th house inclines toward no), the Moon's house and nakshatra lord, and whether the Moon is void of course. The chart is computed with the Swiss Ephemeris and Lahiri ayanamsa — the same engine behind Acharya's full readings.
Is this a guarantee?
No — and any astrologer who guarantees outcomes should worry you. Prashna shows the inclination of the moment, honestly hedged when the chart itself is ambiguous. Every reading here states what would strengthen or weaken the result.
