Kala means "Time" - the Astrological Force that Brings Events to Pass. Kala is quickly becoming the premier Jyotish software due to its greatest accuracy, ease of use, and unique features. Kala has extensive calculations and easily customizable features. Kala runs in English, German, Russian, Spanish and Hungarian*.
The current version of Kala is Kala 2023, released Sept 4, 2023
I now have videos on YouTube showing how to use different Kala features. All such Kala videos are at https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLe6bm3mXh02oobnkK22c6fRKTajRe8WO7
MAC USERS: Kala is built for PC Computers. It is not designed for Mac, however, you can use it on a Mac taking into account the following limitations: We do not offer Mac support, however, we recommend a Mac tecnician in Nepal that can help you for the very low price of 25.00 an hour if you are unable to install Kala on your Mac.In order to install Kala on your Mac you will have to install some type of PC platform amd you can email us for direction for the different available options. We find tha tmost people can install it by themselves. Wineskin is a free and simple method of installing Kala on your Mac though it does not allow for PDF printing. Also, Mac will have a new OS upgrade out in late 2019 that will not allow Wineskin to work. So unless wineskin is rebuilt for the new MAC OS, that will no longer be a possibliities. Crossover is an affordable, 65.00, method of putting Kala on Mac, however, it is much like Wineskin and also does not allow for PDF printing. However, its more likely that crossover builds a new version that will run on the new Mac OS. The best way of running Kala on Mac is with a true version of Windows installed using the free Virtualbox.org or the pricey Parallels - in either case you will need to install a copy of windows and so purchase of windows is required which is about 100.00 unless you purchase a used copy somehwere for about half that price. Windows methods allow for PDF printing and should not be impacted by the MAC OS changes, however, MAC has a notoritous reputation for making OS changes that result in many programs not operating and requiring the user to spend hundreds of dollars on new software and so there is no telling how future Mac OS updates will impact your ability to run any softare. The best way to run Kala is by getting a PC. PC computers have much better backwards compatibility and since Windows 8, Windows a is very stable and virus free operating system. Also, the best astronomical engines are built for PCs and so better astrology software is avialble for PCs than for Macs, so while Macs have some advantages in some fields, for astrology, PC is a much better choice.
PC SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS: 3000 Megabytes of Hard Disk free space. 16 Megabytes Ram. Windows Vista, Windows 7, Windows 8, Windows 10 or Windows 11.
