For Indians and NRIs in the United States, a Vedic astrology reading usually gets squeezed into two bad options: a rushed call-centre app at 2 AM, or waiting for a trip home and fitting it into a two-week visit. This page sets out a third option: a proper 55-minute session, booked online, at a time you can see on your own calendar before you commit to it.
Slot Times in Your Zone
Sessions run Saturday and Sunday, 11:00 to 19:00 India time (IST). The first slot of the day starts at 11:00 IST and the last one starts at 17:25 IST. India is well ahead of every US zone, so the honest fact is that this window falls late at night and early in the morning across the country, not in the evening.
| US zone | First slot (11:00 IST) | Last slot starts (17:25 IST) |
|---|---|---|
| Eastern (EDT, UTC-4) | 1:30 AM | 7:55 AM |
| Central (CDT, UTC-5) | 12:30 AM | 6:55 AM |
| Mountain (MDT, UTC-6) | 11:30 PM, the night before | 5:55 AM |
| Pacific (PDT, UTC-7) | 10:30 PM, the night before | 4:55 AM |
On the East Coast, the later slots (roughly 5 to 8 AM) are the closest thing to a normal morning appointment. On the West Coast, the earlier IST slots land on Friday or Saturday night before midnight, which some clients prefer to a 4 or 5 AM alarm. The exact slot list, already converted to your device’s clock, is on the Cal.com booking page.
One seasonal note: the US moves clocks back to standard time in early November. IST does not change, so from that point every time in the table above shifts one hour earlier.
What US-Based Clients Usually Bring
None of this is a promise of a specific outcome. A chart shows timing and pressure, not certainties, and these are read as guidance:
- H-1B and other work visa timing. Whether a filing, transfer, or renewal falls in a period your chart tends to support or one that tends to run into friction.
- Green card waits. The 9th and 12th houses read against your current Dasha, for a realistic sense of the effort a long priority-date wait is likely to demand, not a date.
- Marriage matching across the US and India. Compatibility read the normal way, with the practical realities of a transnational relationship (time zones, in-law expectations from both sides, eventual location) discussed openly.
- Career decisions. Switching employers, moving from a large company to a startup, or going independent, read against whether the timing favours the move.
- Buying a home in the US. Timing indicators for a major financial commitment, alongside your own inspection and financing process, never instead of it.
- Ageing parents back in India. What the current period suggests about how much presence or attention is called for, so you can plan travel rather than react to a crisis.
- Whether and when to return to India. A genuinely common question for people who came on a visa and are now unsure if settling permanently makes sense.
Fee and Payment
The session is a flat ₹12,000, roughly $140 USD at current exchange rates. That figure moves with the rate and is approximate; the amount charged is fixed in INR.
Once your slot and birth details are confirmed, a payment link is sent by email. International cards are accepted, so a US-issued Visa, Mastercard or Amex works the same as any card would. There is no separate US payment processor: the link goes to the same confirmation you get for any booking, wherever it originates.
Frequently Asked Questions
↳ Is 55 minutes really enough for a full reading over video?
Yes. The chart is studied before the call, so the session itself is spent on your questions and the analysis, not on setup. Most US clients find 55 focused minutes covers more ground than a longer, less prepared call would.
↳ The time slots look like the middle of the night. Is that really the only option?
For most of the country, yes: India is nine and a half to twelve and a half hours ahead of the US zones, so the Saturday and Sunday window falls late at night or early morning here. Some clients set an alarm for the early morning slots; others treat the earlier IST slots as a Friday or Saturday night appointment instead.
↳ Can I book from anywhere in the US, or only certain states?
From anywhere. The session is over Google Meet, so your state or zone only affects which local clock time your slot falls on, not whether you can book it.
↳ Will you tell me whether my visa or green card application will be approved?
No. A chart can indicate whether a period tends to favour paperwork moving smoothly or facing delay. It cannot predict a specific government decision, and no session claims to.
↳ Do you accept US credit and debit cards?
Yes. The payment link sent by email accepts international cards, US-issued cards included, in addition to UPI and net banking for anyone paying from an Indian account.
