Everything You Can Do With UNFOLD

You just got access to UNFOLD. Here's a quick map of everything inside — so you know exactly what you're working with.

Set Up Your Profile

When you log in for the first time, UNFOLD will ask for your birth details — date, time, and place. This is how your Vedic birth chart gets calculated.

You'll also get a few optional questions about your life — things like whether you're working or studying, single or married. This helps UNFOLD give you more relevant answers. You can skip these, but the more context you give, the better.

You can create up to 4 profiles. So you can add your partner, your child, a parent — anyone whose chart you want to explore. Each profile has its own chart, its own chat history, and its own memory. Switch between them anytime from the top of the screen.

The Chat — Your Main Tool

This is where most of the magic happens. Open the chat and you'll see a menu with four sections:

Your Planets

Tap any planet — Sun, Moon, Mars, Mercury, Jupiter, Venus, Saturn, Rahu, or Ketu — and you'll see a set of insight chips. Things like which house your Moon is in, what nakshatra it's placed in, what aspects it receives.

Tap any chip and you get a focused reading on just that topic. It's a great way to go deep on one specific thing.

Your Life

Four big-picture readings:

  • Who Am I — Your core personality, strengths, patterns
  • Career & Purpose — Job vs business, what kind of work suits you, timing
  • Love & Relationships — What you need in a partner, how you love, what to watch for
  • Money & Wealth — How you earn, spend, and build wealth based on your chart

Your Cycles

Instead of generic yearly or monthly predictions, UNFOLD uses a classical timing system based on your dasha periods:

  • The Big Picture — Where you are in your long-term life cycle
  • The Middle Ground — What the current sub-period is doing
  • Right Now— What's active this week/month based on current transits

Free Chat

Just ask anything. “Is this a good time to switch jobs?” “Why do I keep attracting the same kind of people?” “What does Saturn in my 7th house mean?”

UNFOLD remembers what you've talked about. Every few messages, it saves key facts so future conversations build on what it already knows about you.

Apply to My Chart

Found an astrology post on Twitter? An article somewhere? Paste the link in the chat.

UNFOLD will read the content, understand what it's about, and then tell you how it applies to YOUR specific chart. No more reading generic astrology content and wondering “but what does this mean for me?”

Works with Twitter/X posts and web articles.

Tarot Readings

Open the Tarot section from the dashboard. You'll be asked to type your question, and then UNFOLD suggests a spread:

  • One Card — A direct answer. Quick and sharp.
  • Three Cards— Past, present, future. Good for understanding a situation's arc.
  • Decision Reading — Comparing two options side by side (6 cards total).

You'll see 16 cards face-down. Tap to reveal them one by one. After all your cards are revealed, UNFOLD gives you the reading — and you can keep chatting about the cards if you want to go deeper.

All your past tarot readings are saved so you can revisit them.

Forecast

Open the Forecast tile and you'll see five rails, all built from your chart and refreshed for today:

  • Today — the energy of the day, what to lean into, what to be careful with.
  • Sun-Sign Window — how the current week is shaping up for your sign.
  • Watchlist — peak moments coming up. New moons, full moons, and exact-degree transit windows that actually matter for you.
  • Mahadasha & Bhukti— the planetary period you're in right now, and what it's really about.
  • Major Transits — Saturn, Jupiter, Rahu, and Ketu, each read for your chart.

Every card has a Discuss button. Tap it and the card gets pinned into a fresh chat so you can ask UNFOLD anything about it.

Manifestation Portal

Most people skip manifestation because they don't know how to do it properly. They set vague goals, visualize once in a while, and wonder why nothing changes. This is the feature we built to fix that.

Manifestation works best when it's consistent, specific, and tied to the right energy. In Vedic astrology, each day of the week is ruled by a different planet — and each planet carries a different kind of energy. UNFOLD uses this to guide you through a daily visualization practice that actually matches the energy of the day.

For example, Monday is ruled by the Moon, so it's about emotional clarity. Tuesday is Mars — focused intensity and action. Thursday is Jupiter — abundance and expansion. Each day has its own theme, and your visualization is tuned to it.

Here's how it works: set a goal you're working toward, and UNFOLD generates a personalized guided visualization for you every day. You can read it or listen to it as audio with play/pause and speed controls — pick the voice, hit play, close your eyes. There's a weekly tracker showing all seven days at a glance, and a streak counter that grows the more days you show up. Because showing up daily is what makes manifestation actually work.

This isn't wishful thinking. It's a structured daily practice backed by planetary timing.

Latest Updates

UNFOLD automatically writes articles about upcoming astronomical events — things like Mercury going retrograde, a Full Moon in Scorpio, or a rare conjunction.

Each article explains what the event is, what energy it brings, and what to watch for. And just like daily energy, you can tap “Personalize for my chart” to see exactly how that event affects you.

Save to Insights

Any reading that hits home — tap the bookmark icon to save it. You'll find all your saved readings in the Insights section, organized by topic. Think of it as your personal astrology notebook.

Your Chart Data

Want to see the raw data? Go to your profile and you'll find everything laid out:

  • All planet placements with signs, degrees, and nakshatras
  • Your Ascendant
  • Atmakaraka and Darakaraka (soul and relationship indicators)
  • Current Mahadasha and Antardasha periods
  • A visual birth chart in the traditional South Indian format
  • All aspects between planets

A Few Things Worth Knowing

Think of UNFOLD as a weather forecast for your life.

Just like you check the weather before deciding what to wear or whether to carry an umbrella, UNFOLD helps you understand what energies are active — so you can figure out what to focus on and when. It’s about knowing exactly what you want, and finding the right time and the best way to go after it.

The more you chat, the smarter it gets.

UNFOLD remembers your context — your situation, your questions, your concerns. Conversations get better over time.

Everything is Vedic astrology.

Whole Sign houses, Lahiri ayanamsha, sidereal zodiac. If you’re used to Western astrology, your signs might be different here — and that’s intentional.

Birth time matters a lot.

If your birth time is off by even 15 minutes, your Ascendant and house placements could be wrong. Use the most accurate time you can find.
