FAQPage Schema
How do I calculate a natal chart using JPL ephemeris data?▼

You can calculate a natal chart by providing birth date, time, and location to the API endpoints powered by NASA JPL DE440 data, which ensures high-precision planetary positions without manual calculations.

What astronomical computations are available for astrocartography and transit analysis?▼

The API provides 118 endpoints for astronomical computations including astrocartography (ACG), planetary transits, synastry, and predictive astrology, all driven by standardized location and timezone data handling.

Can I use this ephemeris API for professional research applications?▼

Yes, the API is designed for professional and research applications, facilitating complex chart generation, transit analysis, and location-based celestial mapping with zero-hallucination results through strict endpoint schemas.

Does the API require specific access protocols for full ephemeris functionality?▼

Yes, full functionality requires adherence to specific endpoint schemas and tier-gated access protocols to retrieve high-precision astronomical and astrological computation data across all 118 available endpoints.

What's the best way to integrate birth data handling for synastry chart generation?▼

Use the standardized procedures for location, timezone, and birth data handling provided by the API to ensure accurate synastry chart generation and zero-hallucination results in your workflow integration.

Why does location-based celestial mapping need standardized timezone procedures?▼

Standardized timezone and location procedures are required to ensure zero-hallucination results when performing location-based celestial mapping, as precise coordinates and times are essential for accurate JPL DE440 ephemeris calculations.
