Quick Start
Planet Positions
from vedastro import *
Calculate.SetAPIKey('FreeAPIUser') # get your key at vedastro.org/API.html
geo = GeoLocation("Tokyo, Japan", 139.83, 35.65)
birth_time = Time(hour=23, minute=40, day=31, month=12, year=2010, offset="+08:00", geolocation=geo)
result = Calculate.AllPlanetData(PlanetName.Sun, birth_time)
Tools.Print(result)
Match Compatibility
from vedastro import *
Calculate.SetAPIKey('FreeAPIUser')
romeo = Time("23:40 31/12/1996 +08:00", GeoLocation("Tokyo, Japan", 139.83, 35.65))
juliet = Time("14:30 15/06/1997 -05:00", GeoLocation("New York, USA", -74.006, 40.7128))
match = Calculate.MatchReport(romeo, juliet)
Tools.Print(match)
Vimshottari Dasa
from vedastro import *
import json
Calculate.SetAPIKey('FreeAPIUser')
geo = GeoLocation("Tokyo, Japan", 139.83, 35.65)
birth_time = Time("23:40 31/12/2010 +08:00", geo)
start = Time("00:00 01/01/2020 +08:00", geo)
end = Time("23:59 31/12/2025 +08:00", geo)
dasa = Calculate.DasaAtRange(birth_time, start, end, levels=3, precision_hours=100)
print(json.dumps(dasa, indent=4))

Custom Ayanamsa
By default, calculations use the Raman ayanamsa. Switch to any of the 47 supported systems:
# Vedic — Lahiri
Calculate.SetAyanamsa(Ayanamsa.Lahiri)
# Western astrology — Fagan-Bradley
Calculate.SetAyanamsa(Ayanamsa.Fagan_Bradley)
# KP System — Krishnamurti
Calculate.SetAyanamsa(Ayanamsa.Krishnamurti)
API Key
| Tier | Speed | How |
|---|---|---|
| Free | Rate limited | No key needed, or use 'FreeAPIUser' |
| Subscriber | Unlimited | Get key at vedastro.org/API.html |
Calculate.SetAPIKey('your-key-here')
How It Works
Your Python Code → vedastro pip library → REST API → VedAstro Engine (cloud)
All calculations run server-side on the VedAstro engine. No local dependencies beyond Python and requests. No DLLs, no native binaries, no setup.
