Murthy's Astro Calendar App

Astro-Calendar 

(Personal Astrology Calendar)

Everyone should have their own calendar, whether on paper in a notebook, on their calendar software application (App), on a computer, in the cloud, on the smart cell phone, on their iPad, or other tablet. The calendar is used to be a guide for the personal activities, tasks, accounting, banking, financial information, personal and family budgeting, with ability to share selected fields of data with others or a group, religious activity, charity activities, volunteer activities, social activities, work related activities, and most importantly with ability by choice or automatically save past events that could be retrieved as needed in the future, ability to create a summary of activities as an option or done automatically based of some set or modifiable criteria.

The calendar could be in any language in addition to a default language, with additional add on languages. The calendar could have an adjunct diary for polarity or for specific personal value or a shareable version or portion of the diary that is written routinely every day or week or set days of the users choice. In addition to simple text, different multimedia choices should be available to capture and store, all with taggable options from a list of tags or personalized unique tags.  The text could be typed in or imported or exported from another source. Similarly, the different multimedia could be created related to daily activities, weekly or monthly activities, travel, special personal, family, a professional or community group and social activities like travel and for memorializing special life events.

All these features would have rich value in the life of a user. The Astro Calendar would be a calendar and diary, adjunct or independent of the regular calendar and diary. The Astro Calendar is an Astrology Calendar + Diary tagged back to astrological predictions of the user, tagged to actual events and activity of the user. 

Here are the features:

1. Firstly the user will have an astrological chart prepared based on their date and time of birth and also the place of birth, to include the country, state, metropolis, village, postal address of the hospital or any other building with the GPS coordinates. 
2. The chart is prepared based on the birth details by an astrologer or religious leader. Hospital birth records or birth certificates would be the basis for the chart. For those with no such chart prepared at the time of birth, the calendar software will have features to create the chart automatically based on the birth details.
3. List of astrologers providing a variety of services in different parts of the world would be available, with their contact details. As some users may choose the automated software application of our Astro Calendar, others may choose astrology service providers based on their personal or family traditional or religious traditional service providers.
4. In addition to our listed astrologers or astrology groups, we will provide advertising space for astrologers and groups.
5. We will cater to all astrology traditions. Examples, not limited to any particular tradition or practice are: Vedic Astrology, Western Astrology, Chinese, Japanese, Korean, any of the European traditions, African astrology traditions, South American, other different Asian astrology traditions, Jewish, Islamic, Jain, Sikh, Buddhist, other aboriginal tribes.
6. I am providing the Astro Calendar features with unique characteristics, as an example some features, with additional features added or modified routinely starting with the Vedica tradition.
7. The features are all based on my ideas. I will be open to other ideas from different astrologers of any tradition.

Basics of the Vedic Astrology and Basic Axioms

1. The Vedic Birth Chart Format (VBC) has 12 houses or squares. The full chart is also of a square shape envelope. This is the format used in the southern part of India.
2. The chart is called “kunDali”. kunDali is a word in Sanskrit. “samskrita” is the actual word in the language.
3. The birth chart is called the “janma kunDali”; janma = birth.
4. The northern part of India uses slightly different shapes for the 12 houses, all of them inside a square shape envelope.
5. The houses are numbered 1 to 12, corresponding to the 12 zodiacs. The zodiacs are called raashi. The word rashi is pronounced as if it is “raashi”
6. The 12 rashis are associated with over all 27 nakshatras. The word nakshatra means a star cluster, not a single star.
7. The star clusters have their own associated stars, with some of them brighter than the others.
8. Even though there are many stars in a nakshatra, only the bright stars are visible, with some brighter than the others, with different stars with different color tone characteristics.
9. The star configuration, called nakshatra, is based on the visible stars to the human eye which would be like dots. When the dots are joined by lines, a shape may be formed. The lines drawn may resemble the shape profile of something familiar to us the humans.
10. The 27 nakshatras have been given names based on the shape signified by the star configuration. The 12 rashis or the Zodiacs are made up of a group of nakshatras. 
11. The birth chart or the janma kunDali reflects the baggage, both good and bad, the piNya positive funds budget and the paapa liabilities, a minus to be paid back in suffering.
12. The 1st house is called the janma house. 
13. The 1st house is the birth square or birth house. Each house from 1 to 12 could have an associated rashi. 
14. The word “graha” is not exactly a plant. Totally nine grahas are named and used. Seven of them use the planet name. The two additional grahas are nodal points.
15. Nine grahas are: Sun, Moon, Mars, Mercury, Venus, Jupitor and Saturn plus Rahu and Ketu. 
16. The Indian Vedic names are phonetically: soorya (Sun), chandra (Moon), mangaLa (Mars), guru (Jupitor), budha (Venus), shukra (Mercury), shani (Saturn).
17. The different grahas have different influential properties on the person, based on the occupying different houses out of the 12 houses.
18. Multiple grahas may occupy one house, whereas some houses may be vacant.
19. The different grahas stay in a house and move at their own characteristic speed and timing.
20. Each house is associated with a graha, called the master or lord of the house.
21. As there are only 9 grahas and 12 rashis, three houses will have two rashis as their lord. Even though a house may have its own lord, or two in the case of three houses, the lord may not reside in that house.
22. The grahas move from one house to the other in due course of time intervals, thus influencing the property of the house.
23. The 1st house is called the janma house. 
24. The 1st house is the birth square or birth house. Each house from 1 to 12 could have an associated rashi.

33. The grahas move from one house to the other in due course of time intervals, thus influencing the property of the house.
34. The Fundamental Axioms of Vedic Astrology:
1. We are currently interested in astrology, as the human race and also modern humans are pegging in the field of astrology with the assumption that human life, with day, durations within a day, month, year, decades and different stages of our life with different aspects, activities, and stages life, as well the inevitable death, with a bold assumption, or tenets or basic axioms that our life is affected by the date, place and time, birth details memorialized in the birth chart or janma kunDali, further time released changes in our life, god, bad or ugly.
2. The practice of astrology also includes the basic axiom of multiple lifes for each soul, carrying the baggage of good deeds and bad deeds, probably a grey scale from good (puNya, of positive or angelic characteristics) to bad (paapa,, of bad or devilish characteristics), the result of our previous birth, deeds in the past life and the results carried to current and future lives to be expended or experienced)
3. The birth chart or the janma kunDali reflects the baggage, both good and bad, the piNya positive funds budget and the paapa liabilities, a minus to be paid back in suffering.
