In Hindu belief, Lord Krishna was the eighth avatara (incarnation) of God (Vishnu) and a teacher of spiritual wisdom. He is the central figure in the Mahabharata Epic and the Bhagavadgita. The birth date and chart of Lord Krishna is speculative, and even his birth year is unknown and debated. The main date and chart provided on this page is based on a proposal of the Indian astrologer Bangalore Venkata Raman in his book "Notable Horoscopes", p. 2ff. Raman dates the birth to midnight 19/20 Juli. The positions of the planets given by Raman cannot be reproduced exactly. There is an error of about a degree with the Sun and the Moon and an error of several degrees with the other planets. This is explained by the fact that Raman in his time did not have access to high accuracy Nasa ephemerides. Jupiter, who is in sidereal Leo according to Raman, falls into Virgo with accurate calculation and using Raman ayanamsha. The other planets remain in the same signs. In Raman's original chart, the Moon is below the horizon. Since the Sanskrit verse quoted by him says that the moon was just rising. (sudhāṃśor udaye in correct transliteration (D.K.)), we correct the birth time to 12:10 a.m., which makes the Moon just visible above the horizon (note the southern ecliptic latitude of the Moon!).
