What is KP Astrology API

KP astrology (Krishnamurti Paddhati) demands sub lord and sub-sub lord precision that generic Vedic APIs do not provide. This repo ships working TypeScript, JavaScript, and Python samples against the RoxyAPI KP chart endpoint. One subscription unlocks 10 spiritual domains: Vedic astrology, KP astrology, Western astrology, numerology, tarot, biorhythm, I Ching, crystals, dreams, and angel numbers. All positions are computed by Roxy Ephemeris, verified against NASA JPL Horizons.

Common use cases

Use case Endpoint flow
KP natal chart for a practitioner tool Geocode birth city with GET /location/search, then POST to /vedic-astrology/kp/chart
Check which houses a planet signifies Read significators.planetWise keyed by planet name
Horary question ("will X happen") Use /vedic-astrology/kp/ruling-planets with current latitude and longitude
Compare sub lords across all 12 cusps Iterate cusps[].subLord from the chart response
Build a KP significator table UI Combine significators.houseWise and significators.planetWise
