What Astroji will not answer
Four questions get a refusal rather than a reading. Not because the old books are silent on them — on two of the four they are emphatically not — but because an answer would do harm that a citation cannot undo.
- How long will I live
- The classical texts answer this, and they name a year. We hold those verses — Jataka Parijata's fourth and fifth adhyayas, transcribed like the rest — and have deliberately made it impossible to quote them. A number like that changes how a person lives, and no chart has earned the right to do that.
- Will this illness pass
- Astrology cannot diagnose and cannot give a prognosis. The texts we quote predate modern medicine by four centuries, and reading them at someone waiting on a scan would be a distraction from the person who can actually help.
- Is my husband being faithful
- We read the chart of the person in front of us. Reading someone else's — from their partner, without their knowing — would put a stranger's marriage in the hands of a machine that has never met either of them.
- Anything said in crisis
- If a message suggests someone is thinking of hurting themselves, Astroji stops being an astrologer and shows the numbers above. It does not answer the astrological question that came with it.
Something wrong? Tell me directly.
Astroji is built by one person, and during the beta that person reads every message himself. A refusal that fired on an ordinary question, a verse that reads oddly, a reading that felt wrong — all of it is useful.

Astrology is a documented tradition, not a proven science. The astronomy is exact; what the tradition makes of it is what we quote. Astroji is not a substitute for a doctor, lawyer, accountant or therapist.
