# Vedic Divisional Chart (DEPRECATED: use /vedic/varga/{D}<*>)

`POST /vedic-divisional`

> **Deprecated.**

DEPRECATED: moved to dedicated per-varga endpoints `/vedic/varga/{D1..D60}` for OpenAPI/SDK ergonomics. This generic endpoint still works and stays live until its 2027-06-15 sunset (12-month, per the /v1 stability policy), then will be removed; migrate to `/vedic/varga/{D}`. Calculate a Vedic divisional (varga) chart using sidereal zodiac. Supported vargas: D1–D60 (e.g. D9 Navamsha).

## Request body

- Vedic — Birth data for a single natal chart. Required: date (YYYY-MM-DD), time (HH:mm:ss), latitude and longitude in decimal degrees. The short forms lat, lon, lng and tz are rejected with 400 INVALID_FIELD; pass the full names. timezoneOffset is hours from UTC and defaults to 0, meaning UTC. city is a display label only: nothing here geocodes it, so it never stands in for coordinates.
  - `date` string, required
  - `time` string, required
  - `timezoneOffset` number, nullable — Hours from UTC at the given moment, not minutes. Fractional zones are hours too: 5.5 for India, 5.75 for Nepal, -3.5 for Newfoundland. Defaults to 0, meaning UTC.
  - `latitude` number, required
  - `longitude` number, required
  - `houseSystem` string
  - `name` string
  - `city` string
  - `zodiacType` 'tropical' | 'sidereal'
  - `ayanamsaId` number, nullable
  - `ayanamsa` 'fagan-bradley' | 'lahiri' | 'de-luce' | 'raman' | 'krishnamurti' | 'kp' | 'yukteshwar' | 'jn-bhasin' | 'true-citra' | 'djwhal-khul' — Sidereal school by name. Lahiri when omitted. Equivalent to ayanamsaId; send either.
  - `cosmogram` boolean
  - `varga` unknown
