The rishis behind your lessons

Each subject is traced to a seer of the tradition. Read who they were and where the texts speak of them.

How does a RishiSetu lesson work?

Every lesson follows the same short loop, so you always know what comes next.

Guruji explains, you try, and the answer always comes with its reason.

  1. 01

    One idea

    A short screen explains one idea. Sanskrit terms appear with their meaning.
  2. 02

    See it move

    An animated diagram shows the idea: the zodiac turns, the Lagna rises, digits drop into the Lo Shu grid.
  3. 03

    Try it

    Tap a house, place a graha, fill the grid. Your answer is checked against the computed chart.
  4. 04

    Know why

    Right or wrong, you see the reason and the rule it comes from. Missed ideas come back in review.

What else is in the app?

Lessons are the centre. Around them, the app keeps you practising and shows how far you have come.

  • Your journey

    Each course is a path through a painted world. Every level is a stop on the road, so you see what is done and what comes next.

  • Exams and certificates

    Every level ends with a mastery check, and every course with a 20-question exam. Pass it to earn the course’s certificate, which anyone can check online.

  • Ask Guruji

    Ask about the lesson you are on, and Guruji answers in your language. Guruji can also read explanations aloud.

  • A little every day

    A chart of the day with three questions, a word of the day, streaks, and short reviews that bring back what you missed.

  • Your own chart

    Add your birth details to see each idea in your own chart. They stay on your device.

  • Turn the sky

    Drag through any day and watch the rising sign change, with every chart calculated live.

Why can you trust what you learn here?

From a lesson

Rule

The Lagna (ascendant) is the sign rising on the eastern horizon at the moment and place of birth.

Checked by calculationSwiss Ephemeris · Lahiri ayanamsha

  1. 1

    Rules name their source

    Each rule in a lesson names the classical text it comes from, such as Brihat Parashara Hora Shastra. Numerology rules are marked as conventions, because numerology has no classical Sanskrit source.

  2. 2

    Answers come from calculation

    Practice charts are calculated with the Swiss Ephemeris and the Lahiri ayanamsha, and your answers are graded against that calculation rather than a hand-typed key.

  3. 3

    Honest about limits

    RishiSetu teaches method, not fate. No fear language, no guaranteed predictions, no remedies for sale. Where traditions differ, the lesson says so.

Inside the app, you can ask Guruji about any lesson, in your own language.

What is RishiSetu?

RishiSetu (rishisetu.com) is an online learning app for Vedic astrology (Jyotish), numerology, Vastu Shastra and palmistry, in 10 languages, including Hindi and English. It teaches through short lessons, live charts and practice questions that explain every answer.

Can a complete beginner learn Vedic astrology on RishiSetu?

Yes. The astrology course starts with what a chart is and builds one idea at a time: the 12 rashis, the 9 grahas, the 27 nakshatras and the 12 bhavas come before any chart reading. A question only uses what an earlier lesson has already taught.

Is RishiSetu available in Hindi and other Indian languages?

Yes. The whole app and every lesson are in English, Hindi, Tamil, Telugu, Marathi, Odia, Bangla, Malayalam, Gujarati and Kannada, and you can switch at any time without losing your place. Sanskrit terms are shown with their meaning.

Does RishiSetu predict my future?

No. RishiSetu teaches the methods of Jyotish and numerology: how a chart or a number is calculated and how the classical rules read it. It does not promise that any prediction will come true, and it does not sell remedies.

Which ayanamsha and chart style does RishiSetu use?

The Lahiri (Chitrapaksha) ayanamsha, the standard recommended by India’s Calendar Reform Committee in 1955, with whole-sign houses counted from the Lagna. Lessons draw the North Indian chart, and the Basic course also shows the South and East Indian layouts.
