Outer Planets in the Kundli API
Uranus, Neptune and Pluto: sidereal position, house from the lagna, and the house reading in English and Hindi
POST/v1/kundli/outer-planets
2 credits · Secret key (test or live) · getOuterPlanets
Positions are sidereal, consistent with the rest of the chart; the reading is by house only (a sidereal sign carries no Western sign text). Needs a birth time.
