You have a question that won't leave you alone: should you take the job, will the marriage proposal work out, is that trip worth making? A natal chart describes your whole life, but it doesn't answer one specific question asked at one specific moment. Prashna Kundali Explorer is built for that. It uses the Prashna (Vedic horary) astrology branch, which casts a chart for the moment a question is asked.

Key features
A chart cast for the moment you ask your question
The software builds a Prashna Kundali and a Prashna Panchang for the time of the question. It follows the Prashna Shastra method of answering from the question-time chart instead of the birth chart.
Several horary techniques in one program
It supports KP Horary, the Vedic Number Horary chart and Time Prashna. You can also view Sodashvarga Kundalis, including Hora, Drekkana and Navamsha charts.
A written analysis that ends in a conclusion
The report shows which planets and factors favor your question and which work against it. It covers planetary strengths, factor planets and houses, yogas, special combinations and planetary aspects. It then gives a final conclusion after weighing everything.
Over 200 ready-made questions, plus silent questions
Pick from more than 200 pre-fed queries covering topics such as marriage, career, wealth, health, travel, children and business. If your question isn't listed, the silent/unknown question facility handles it.
Reports in six languages
You can generate reports in English, Hindi, Kannada, Telugu, Bangla or Tamil. That is useful if you share results with clients or family who read a regional language.
Who it's for
It suits Vedic astrologers who take client questions and want a structured horary analysis without working every chart by hand. It also suits students of Prashna astrology and anyone who wants a chart-based answer to a single pressing question. It is a specialist tool. If you want full birth-chart work, you will need other software alongside it.
