A Vedic birth chart — also called a Kundali or Janma Kundali — is a snapshot of the sky at the exact moment and place you were born. It maps where the nine grahas (planets) sat across the twelve houses and twelve rashis (signs) using the sidereal zodiac, which is fixed to the actual stars rather than the seasons.
Western astrology uses the tropical zodiac, tied to the equinoxes. Vedic astrology uses the sidereal zodiac, corrected by an offset called the ayanamsa (this tool uses the standard Lahiri ayanamsa). Because of this roughly 24° difference, your Vedic Sun sign is often the sign just before your familiar Western one — that is expected, not a mistake. Use the Vedic / Western toggle above to compare the two side by side.
Each house governs an area of life — the 1st (self and body), 2nd (wealth and speech), 4th (home and mother), 7th (marriage and partnership), 10th (career), and so on. A planet's house placement tells you where its energy plays out; its sign tells you how. Our guide to the twelve houses walks through each one.
Vedic astrology works with nine "planets": the Sun, Moon, Mars, Mercury, Jupiter, Venus and Saturn, plus the two lunar nodes, Rahu and Ketu. Each carries its own significations and dignities. Read the full guide to the nine grahas, the 27 nakshatras the Moon travels through, or start with the Vedic astrology overview.
For the Lagna (Ascendant) and accurate house placements, yes — the rising sign changes roughly every two hours and the degrees shift every few minutes. If you only know an approximate time, your planet signs will still be broadly correct, but treat the Ascendant and house cusps as provisional.
Vedic astrology uses the sidereal zodiac (Lahiri ayanamsa), which is offset about 24° from the tropical zodiac used in most Western horoscopes. As a result many people's Vedic Sun sign is the sign just before their Western one. Switch this tool between Vedic (Sidereal) and Western (Tropical) to compare.
The ayanamsa is the angular gap between the sidereal and tropical zodiacs. Lahiri (also called Chitrapaksha) is the most widely used standard in Indian astrology and the official ayanamsa of the Indian government calendar. This calculator uses it by default.

They show the same data in different layouts. The North Indian style is diamond-shaped with fixed houses and moving signs; the South Indian style is a square grid with fixed signs and moving houses. The planetary positions are identical, so choose whichever you learned to read.
