Online Vedic Astrologer for Indians in the USA
Indians living in the United States can consult Sheela Goklani, a Gold Medalist Vedic astrologer based in Ahmedabad, through a private one-to-one Google Meet session. The booking calendar shows open slots in your own US time zone, and readings are given in English, Hindi, Gujarati, Rajasthani, Sindhi or Urdu.
Session hours in the USA
India runs 9.5 to 13.5 hours ahead of the continental US, depending on your coast and whether daylight saving is on (India never changes its clocks). In practice, an Indian evening session lands on your morning, and an Indian morning falls late on your previous evening - so you can usually pick between before work and late at night.

Live on Google Meet
A private one-to-one video session that works from any phone or laptop - no app to install, no travel, the same reading as in person.
Slots shown in your local time
The booking calendar reads your browser's time zone and lists every open slot in your local time. The calendar invite matches it.
Six languages
Readings in Hindi, Gujarati, Rajasthani, Sindhi, Urdu, English - so elders on the call can follow every word.

Born in the USA? Your birth time
If you or your child were born in the US, give the clock time exactly as written on the birth certificate, along with the city. The chart is calculated with the time zone and daylight saving rule that applied in that city on that date, so you do not need to convert anything to IST yourself. A one-hour DST error would move the ascendant, which is why this is handled at calculation time rather than left to guesswork.
What clients in the USA ask about
Visa, green card and relocation timing
Long waits on H-1B, green card or citizenship decisions are a common reason for a reading. The chart cannot replace an immigration lawyer, but your running Dasha and transits show which periods favour movement and which call for patience.
Marriage across two countries
Families in India and the US often need a match checked quickly and remotely. Kundali matching covers Ashtakoot guna milan, Manglik status and the deeper compatibility of both charts, and both families can join the same call.
Career and job changes
Layoffs, switching employers, starting a business or returning to India: career readings look at the 10th house, its lord and the current Dasha to judge timing rather than just inclination.
Children born abroad
Parents frequently want a first kundali for a US-born child, including the Moon sign and Nakshatra used for naming. The chart is drawn for the exact birth city and local time.

Questions from the USA
- What US time will my consultation be?
- The booking calendar converts every open slot into the time zone your browser reports, so the time you click is your local US time. Your Google Calendar invite will show the same time.
- Do I need to convert my US birth time to IST?
- No. Give the local clock time from the birth certificate and the city of birth. Time zone and daylight saving are applied during chart calculation.
- Can my parents in India join the same session?
- Yes. The Google Meet link can be shared with family members in India or anywhere else, so everyone hears the reading together.
