How to use your file
You have one file. Here is what to do with it.
Your reading arrived as a single Markdown file — a plain text document, ending in .md. You do not read it top to bottom. You hand it to an AI assistant and ask it questions, in your own words, for as long as you like.
This works because the file carries its own calculation: positions, houses, divisional charts and dated periods, all from one stated set of settings (see exactly which). The assistant does not guess your chart; it reads it. The guides below cover a phone, a computer, Obsidian, Claude, NotebookLM, the add-ons and the daily view, so pick the one that matches where you read.
1Save the file
It arrived attached to your delivery email, ending in
.md. Put it somewhere you can find again.2Open an AI assistant
ChatGPT, Claude or Gemini. Free plans are fine and read the same file.
3Attach it to a new chat
The + or paperclip beside the message box. Attach — never paste; a file this size gets cut off.
4Say hello and ask anything
It greets you, asks three short questions one at a time, then reads. You can also just ask your question straight away.
Pick where you are
- On a phoneAndroid or iPhone. Save the file, then attach it in the ChatGPT, Claude or Gemini app.
- On a computerWindows or Mac. The roomiest way to work — long answers, long sessions, everything in one place.
- With ObsidianFree, and it turns your reading into notes you keep. Needed only if you bought the vault add-on.
- With ChatGPTAttach your .md chart file into ChatGPT or a custom project. The prompts, steps, and setup.
- With ClaudeAttach the file, ask it to cite the section behind every claim. Free account is enough.
- With NotebookLMHolds the whole file at once and cites the line every answer came from. Free, and the best fit for checking a claim.
- What to typeThe shortcuts your file understands, and how to call each add-on you bought.
- A daily readingHave a short reading arrive every morning. Free in ChatGPT; we say plainly where it is not.
- Check your birth timeHow far your time could be out before the rising sign changes. Free, and it runs in your browser.
One thing worth doing first
If you use ChatGPT or Claude, make a Project and put your file in it once. Every chat you start inside that project can see the file already — no re-attaching, and the assistant stops beginning from nothing each time. It is free on both.Steps for your phone ·for a computer.
Which app copes best with the whole chart
Every app reads your file, and every one of them is free to try. They differ in how much of a large document they can hold in view at once — which matters for the Complete file, and barely at all for a single-area one.
Claude
FreeHandles the Complete file best. Holds a large document in view at once, so answers that draw on several parts of your chart join up properly.
ChatGPT
Partly freeWorks well, with one difference: on a free plan it reads a file this large in parts rather than all at once, so it may miss a connection between two distant sections. Putting the file in a Project helps. A single-area file fits comfortably either way.
Gemini
Partly freeSame as ChatGPT on a free plan — it reads the Complete file in parts. Single-area files are a much better fit here.
Grok
Paid plan onlyPaid plans only, and the money buys something here: it takes the whole Complete file without chunking it, the same on a laptop, a desktop and a phone. It is also the one that stays in a difficult conversation instead of steering away from it. A model readier to commit is readier to be wrong, so ask it to show the placements behind anything that surprises you.
Qwen
Partly freeReads the file, but we have tested it least. If an answer looks thin, ask it to quote the line it used.
All four read the file. This is about how much of it they hold at once.
Want the whole file in view at once, on a free plan?NotebookLM holds it comfortably and cites the line each answer came from — though it answers questions rather than giving you a reading.
If your assistant ever answers as though it has not seen part of your chart, ask it to quote the line it used. If it cannot, start a fresh chat and attach the file again.
Good questions to start with
- How to tell when the AI is making it up
- What should I do with my life?
- Why do I feel empty?
- Why do I push people away?
- Kundli matching or marriage timing
- Two complete files for a marriage
- Family charts and your own timing
- The twelfth house, Rahu and foreign travel
Do I need to pay for ChatGPT or Claude?
Every assistant has a working memory — how much it can hold in view while it answers. Your file is large, and a bigger memory means more of it stays in view at the same time, so the answers join up: your work question and your timing question stop being two separate readings and start being one. That is what a paid plan buys here, and nothing else.
A free plan reads the same file and gives the same quality of answer to any one question. You will just restart the chat sooner in a long session — say “wrap up” first and carry the summary across. Start free, and upgrade only if you find yourself restarting often.
Phone or computer — does it matter?
A phone is completely fine, and plenty of people never use anything else. The only difference is length: phone chats fill up sooner, so a long session gets summarised and continued in a fresh chat. On a computer you can go for hours, keep several threads open, and save answers as you go. If you have both, start on the computer for the first deep read and use the phone for questions during the day.
Try it before your file arrives
This is a real Complete file, built for a made-up person called John Doe. Download it, attach it to any assistant, and see exactly how a session feels.
Try a real file
A complete file for a made-up person, exactly as a buyer receives it: 3,080 lines, 247 KB — about 854 of those are the reading, and the rest is coded chart data meant for the assistant rather than for you. Nothing is held back and there is no signup.
Most of it is coded chart data, which is meant to look dense to you and read clearly to the assistant.
If something does not work
Message us and we will sort it out — WhatsApp,Telegram, orsupport@astrodai.in. If your assistant refuses the file or says it cannot read it, tell us which app and which plan, and we will send you a version it accepts.
