Sripati

Endpoint POST https://starsapi.com/api/v3/vedic/charts/sripati

Returns chart image URLs for the Sripati Bhava chart. The Sripati system uses mid-points between Placidus cusps to define house boundaries — a hybrid approach that blends unequal-house precision with Vedic conventions. Popular in certain Parashari traditions and KP variants.

For other house systems, see /charts/bhava (Equal House) and /charts/chalit (Placidus). For house data (cusps, boundaries, angles, planet placements per house), use /houses/sripati.
