Summary

The KP System operation under the Vedic resource calculates a natal chart using the Krishnamurti Paddhati (KP) astrological system. It takes birth data (year, month, day, hour, minute) and location (city/country or latitude/longitude) as input, applies the selected ayanamsa system (with specific support for the krishnamurti option for KP calculations), and uses either mean or true node calculations for lunar positions. The operation returns chart data calculated according to KP astrological principles, with optional simplification of the response.

Inputs

• year (required) — Birth year in 4-digit format (e.g., 1990)
• month (required) — Birth month as number 1-12 (January=1, December=12)
• day (required) — Birth day of month (1-31)
• hour (required) — Birth hour in 24-hour format (0-23, where 0=midnight, 12=noon)
• minute (required) — Birth minute (0-59)
• locationType (required) — Choose how to specify birth location: by city name (auto-detects coordinates) or exact latitude/longitude
• ayanamsa (required) — Ayanamsa (precession correction) system for Vedic calculations. Use 'krishnamurti' for KP system calculations.
• nodeType (required) — Calculation method for lunar nodes (Rahu/Ketu). Use 'true' for actual astronomical position used in some KP calculations, or 'mean' for average position.
• precision — Decimal precision for degree calculations (0-6), default is 2
• simplify — Whether to return simplified response with key data only. Disable for full API response with all metadata.

Output shape

Contains KP-calculated natal chart data including planetary placements, house positions, and lunar node positions calculated using the selected ayanamsa system and node type method. When simplify=true, returns only key data fields.

The operation specifically supports KP system calculations through the krishnamurti ayanamsa option and provides flexibility in node type selection for accurate KP astrological analysis.

Examples

Example 1: A workflow builder wants to calculate a KP chart for birth data 1990-06-15 14:30 at latitude 30.52, longitude 105.83

Set year=1990, month=6, day=15, hour=14, minute=30, locationType=coordinates, latitude=30.52, longitude=105.83, ayanamsa=krishnamurti, nodeType=true
