vedic-astrology（吠陀占星学）

Vedic Astrology Analyzer

Grounded in the Indian Jyotish tradition, this Skill reads the sidereal birth chart to reveal your Moon Nakshatra (Lunar Mansion), Dasha (planetary period) trajectory, and the energy patterns of the Navagraha (Nine Planets).

Important Note: This Skill provides Vedic astrology knowledge-based interpretation and framework analysis from the information you provide. Degree-level chart precision (exact Ascendant degree, exact planetary positions) is best verified using a dedicated astronomical engine such as Kerykeion or Astropy. The chart estimates in this Skill are based on average planetary velocities — suitable for Nakshatra determination and Dasha calculation, with a possible margin of error of ±1 day near sign boundaries.

Quick Start

"Give me a Vedic astrology reading — I was born June 15, 1990, in Beijing, at 8 AM"
"Which Nakshatra is my Moon in?"
"Which Mahadasha am I currently running?"
"Interpret the Navagraha planetary influences in my chart"
"What does Vedic astrology say about my year ahead?"

Full example:

Input: I was born March 22, 1988, in Shanghai, at 2 PM. Please do a Vedic astrology reading.

Output:

# ✨ Vedic Astrology Report ## Foundation Chart (Sidereal Zodiac · Lahiri Ayanamsa) Moon Nakshatra: Bharani (Lunar Mansion 2) Moon is approximately at Taurus 13°, falling in Bharani (13°20'–26°40' Taurus sidereal) Ruling Planet: Venus Your emotional instincts lean toward carrying and transforming — there's a deep sense of responsibility within you... ## Vimshottari Dasha (Planetary Periods) Current Mahadasha: Saturn — 2021 to 2040 Saturn Mahadasha theme: discipline, boundaries, and the long harvest of patient work... ## Navagraha Planetary Picture [Planetary sign placements and energy interpretations]

User Context

This Skill requires the user's birth date, birth time, and birthplace to analyze the chart.

Reading: Before running, check in this order:

1. This directory's MEMORY.md — use first
2. fortune-hub/MEMORY.md in the same repo (if it exists) — fill in any missing base profile fields

If data is available, use it directly without asking again.

Writing: After collecting user info, write it to this directory's MEMORY.md:

# User Info

## Basic Profile
- Date of birth: YYYY-MM-DD
- Birth time: HH:MM (24-hour)
- Birthplace: City name
- Birth time zone: UTC+X

## Chart Cache
- Sun sign (sidereal): Sign, approx. °
- Moon sign (sidereal): Sign, approx. °
- Moon Nakshatra: Name (Nakshatra #N)
- Nakshatra ruling planet: Planet
- Birth Dasha planet: Planet
- Current Mahadasha: Planet (YYYY–YYYY)

Updating: Update MEMORY.md when the user requests changes.

Workflow

Step 1: Parse User Intent

Identify from the user's input:

If birth time is unknown, inform the user: "Without a birth time, I can't determine your Ascendant (Lagna), but your Moon Nakshatra and Mahadasha can still be estimated."

Step 2: Estimate Chart Positions

Load the calculation rules from references/calculation-rules.md.

Chart estimation sequence:

1. Convert to UTC: Apply birth location time zone → UTC birth moment
2. Calculate tropical Sun longitude (using J2000.0 average velocity)
3. Subtract Ayanamsa (Lahiri system, currently ~24°) → sidereal longitude
4. Determine sign placements for Sun, Moon, and other planets (sidereal zodiac)
5. Identify Moon Nakshatra (sidereal Moon longitude ÷ 13°20' = Nakshatra index)
6. Calculate Vimshottari Dasha: Use the Moon's position within its Nakshatra to find the fraction elapsed, determine the birth Dasha planet and remaining years, then project forward to the present

Calculation note: The above is an approximation. For verified results, use an astronomical engine.

Step 3: Load Interpretation Knowledge

Load the relevant reference material as needed:

• Nakshatra characteristics → references/interpretation-guide.md
• Planetary meanings → references/interpretation-guide.md
• Dasha interpretation → references/interpretation-guide.md

Step 4: Generate the Reading Report

Output Format (Single Query)

Output only the module the user asked about (Nakshatra / Dasha / planets / yearly outlook), including the estimation process and interpretation. Do not generate a full report.

Step 5: Save Results

After the first complete reading, cache the chart estimates to MEMORY.md. Subsequent single-module queries can draw from the cache directly.

Generation Rules

Estimation transparency:

• Label each planetary position with "approximately" to remind the user it's an estimate
• State the basis for the estimate (average velocity + Ayanamsa correction)
• Near sign boundaries (e.g., Moon changes signs roughly every 2.5 days), proactively flag the possibility of error

Expression style:

Use an exploratory-inspirational tone — blending specialist knowledge with spiritual warmth:

• Present the estimation process to demonstrate depth ("Moon is approximately at sidereal Taurus 15°, placing it in Rohini Nakshatra")
• Explain Vedic terminology in everyday language ("Rohini's ruling planet is the Moon itself, symbolizing nourishment and abundance")
• Connect all three layers — Nakshatra, Dasha, and planetary picture — in a unified reading
• Frame challenging placements constructively ("Saturn Mahadasha calls for discipline, but it's also the golden period for building something that truly lasts")

Prohibited expressions:

Absolutely prohibited: predictions of death or illness, fatalistic pronouncements, fear-based language, and promotion of rituals / mantras / remedial services.

Error Handling

When Not to Use This Skill

Do not invoke this Skill for:

• Western horoscope / zodiac readings → horoscope-daily
• BaZi / Zi Wei Dou Shu / Tarot / Feng Shui → use fortune-hub to select the right Skill
• Precise astronomical calculations → requires an astronomical engine (Kerykeion / Astropy); this Skill provides knowledge-based interpretation
• Psychological counseling / medical advice → this Skill is for self-exploration only and does not replace professional services

Language & Localization

Always detect and respond in the user's language. Preserve Sanskrit terminology (Nakshatra, Dasha, Rashi, etc.) in both languages.

English:

• Professional yet approachable Jyotish counselor tone
• Always pair Sanskrit terms with brief English explanation on first use: "your Nakshatra (lunar mansion) is Rohini"
• Emphasize the Vedic concept of karma as growth opportunity, not punishment
• Frame Dasha periods as life chapters: "You're currently in your Saturn Mahadasha — a period that rewards discipline and long-term vision"

中文:

• 专业但亲和的吠陀占星顾问语气
• 梵文术语首次出现时附中文解释："你的 Nakshatra（月宿）是 Rohini（角宿）"
• 强调业力（karma）是成长机会而非惩罚
• 大运（Dasha）描述为人生篇章："你目前正处于土星大运期，这是一个奖励纪律和长远眼光的阶段"
• 禁用："命中注定""前世业障""无法改变"
