API Overview & Calculation Details

Methodology and astrological context for Favourable Points.

What This API Does

The Favourable Points endpoint is part of the AstroInsight API's Astro Details module, which sits within a comprehensive Vedic Astrology platform. It accepts a person's birth details — date, time, and geographic coordinates — and computes astrologically significant favourable points derived from their natal chart. These points are calculated using Vedic (Jyotish) principles, with support for configurable Ayanamsha systems (the astronomical correction applied to sidereal calculations).

What Data It Returns

Based on the birth data provided, the endpoint returns a set of auspicious or favourable indicators specific to the individual. This typically includes:

  • Favourable time windows or periods — astrologically auspicious moments or spans relevant to the native

  • Planetary strength indicators — points reflecting the benefic influence of planets in the natal chart

  • Lucky or supportive factors — such as favourable numbers, directions, colours, or days derived from the chart

  • Astrological scoring data — numerical or categorical values indicating the degree of favourability across different life areas

The exact structure of the response is shaped by the Ayanamsha setting and the language preference passed in the request headers.

Main Use Cases

  • Astrology applications and platforms that need to surface personalised auspicious indicators for users based on their birth chart

  • Daily or periodic guidance features in horoscope apps, where favourable points help users make timing decisions

  • Muhurta (electional astrology) support — identifying favourable conditions for starting new ventures, travel, or important events

  • Personalised astrology dashboards that aggregate multiple chart-derived insights, with favourable points as one key data layer
