Birth Chart Summary
generate_horoscopeGenerate a Vedic (sidereal) birth horoscope from birth date, time and place. Returns a summary (ascendant/lagna, Moon and Sun signs, birth nakshatras and padas); the Rashi (D-1) chart in 'rasi_chart' -- the ascendant and the nine grahas (Sun to Ketu), each with sign, degree within the sign, nakshatra and pada, plus the bhava house (equal 30° houses with the ascendant's degree at the middle of house 1, so a graha more than 15° from the ascendant's degree within its sign is one house off the plain sign count) and a retrograde flag for Mars to Saturn (these two only for the default house method and natal settings); the birth panchanga in 'calendar_info'; and the names of the other calculated sections. Call this first; later tools reuse the same cached chart for divisional charts, strengths, dashas and more. Data only -- no interpretation is added.
