The Living Sky in 3D

A real-time 3D view of the heavens — watch the Sun, Moon and planets travel the ecliptic through the 27 nakshatras and the twelve signs.

The sky as it is, not as a diagram

This is the real ecliptic: the nine grahas placed at their actual sidereal longitudes, moving through the twenty-seven nakshatras, rendered in three dimensions rather than drawn as a flat wheel. Scrub the timeline and the positions recompute — you can run the sky forward to a date that matters to you and watch which planets are where when you get there.

It is the same data as your chart

Nothing here is decorative. The positions in the 3D view are the identical numbers the kundli, the dasha timeline and the transit readings are built on, computed once from the Swiss Ephemeris on the Lahiri ayanamsa. If the sky shows Saturn at the end of a sign, your chart is reading it from exactly there. Switch to the solar-system view for familiar heliocentric astronomy — but note that the chart is geocentric, which is why the two look different.

Is this my chart or just the current sky?

Both, depending on what you have entered. Without birth details it shows the live sky; with a chart cast it overlays your natal positions against the transiting ones.

Why does the solar-system view look different from my chart?

Because a chart is geocentric — it maps where the planets appear from Earth — while the solar-system view is heliocentric. They are two accurate pictures of the same moment from different vantage points.
