Eclipse Janma Dosha Calculator
What is Eclipse Janma Dosha?
Eclipse Janma Dosha is read when birth falls during an eclipse window: a solar eclipse needs Amavasya with the Sun–Moon close to a node (Rahu or Ketu), and a lunar eclipse needs Purnima with the Moon close to a node. The luminaries are then under maximum nodal influence — an intense, karmically significant birth moment.
Such a birth is traditionally treated as asking for shanti remedies and for care around the mind (Moon) or vitality and father themes (Sun), depending on which eclipse type applies. Natives are often intense, marked, and capable of unusual focus; the same nodal pressure that texts caution about can become spiritual depth and a life that does not stay ordinary.
Severity depends on how close the luminaries are to the node, which eclipse type, and the rest of the chart. Enter your exact birth date, time and place so tithi and nodal proximity are calculated correctly, and read Eclipse Janma within the full chart. Remedies and a strong Lagna go far toward turning intensity into purpose. This is a karmic timing note to honour, not a lifelong verdict of misfortune. Solar and lunar eclipse births carry different emphases; match remedies to which luminary was eclipsed and how close the node was.
