Astrological Context
Previous Predictions
How We Verify Predictions
Prediction Generation
AI analyzes United States's inception chart, current planetary transits, 5-level Vimshottari Dasha periods, 4 cardinal ingress charts, and KP sub-lord techniques to produce specific, dated predictions across 8 categories.
Claim Extraction
Concrete, real-world claims are extracted from the prediction text. Astrological jargon and vague statements are filtered out — only specific, falsifiable claims are kept (e.g., “cabinet reshuffle before March 20” rather than “political tensions may rise”).
Source Verification
Each claim is cross-referenced against news articles from reputable outlets (Reuters, AP, BBC, Bloomberg, major local newspapers). Every verified or falsified claim includes the source article URL, headline, and a relevant quote from the article.
Temporal Rules
Claims whose predicted timeframe hasn't elapsed yet are marked “Pending” — never prematurely marked true or false. A claim is only verified after its deadline passes and evidence is found. This prevents hindsight bias and ensures honest reporting.
Disclaimer: Predictions are astrological interpretations generated by AI analysis of planetary data. Fact-checking validates whether predicted real-world outcomes occurred — it does not validate astrology as a predictive science. We publish both confirmed and falsified claims transparently for accountability.
