Methodology and astrological context for Lal Kitab Moon Houses.
The Lal Kitab Moon Houses API determines and returns the Moon's house placement in a Lal Kitab birth chart for a given date, time, and geographic location. In Lal Kitab astrology, the house occupied by the Moon carries particular interpretive weight — it governs the native's mind, emotions, mother, domestic life, and the flow of karmic debts. This endpoint isolates that placement and provides the associated chart visualisation, making it a focused companion to the broader planetary chart.
Given a person's birth details (date, time, and coordinates), this endpoint calculates which of the twelve Lal Kitab houses the Moon occupies at the moment of birth. The calculation is performed using the sidereal zodiac with the Ayanamsha correction specified in the request header. The result is returned alongside a rendered Lal Kitab chart image that highlights or contextualises the Moon's position within the full chart layout.
