Max Council mode

The council agrees. Or it doesn’t — and you see why.

Max Council is the highest-leverage mode in the app. A roster of 25 classical schools — Parashari (BPHS), Saravali, Phaladeepika, Jaimini, Lal Kitab, the Western voices (Tetrabiblos, Lilly horary), Ayurveda, Tantra, and the dharma voices (Gita, Yoga-Sutras, Tirukkural) — stands ready; for each question a selector convenes the 3–5 most relevant, who each write an independent brief in parallel. Claude Opus 4.7 then reconciles them: where they agree, that becomes the spine. Where they disagree, the disagreement is surfaced openly with the reasons.

Best for

Big life decisions — marriage, surgery, business launch, major relocation. Where you want every classical school weighing in.

What goes in. What comes out.

What goes in

›A consequential question (you would not ask Normal for this).
›Your full chart context — D1, D9, D10, dashas, transits, panchang.
›For multi-person decisions: the second person’s chart auto-loads from your Rishtas.

What comes out

›A council verdict — single recommendation with confidence level.
›Each convened specialist’s brief, viewable individually.
›A "where they agreed / where they differed" diff.
›A list of remedial measures (upayas) prescribed by the texts that the council recommends.

Three worked examples

The kind of question this mode is built for, and the kind of reply you would actually get.

Question

Should I have my open-heart surgery in March 2027 (current scheduled date) or push to June?

Council verdict: push to June 2027. Confidence: high. 4 of 5 convened schools converge on June — March falls in your Saturn-Rahu antardasha which the Parashari, Phaladeepika, and Lal Kitab agents all flag as a "delay-risk" window for surgical recovery, even though the surgery itself is unlikely to fail. Jaimini agrees on the timing via the 8th-from-AK reasoning. The Muhurta agent confirms June carries the stronger surgical muhurta — which the council weights above any single favourable-day reading.

Question

My family is proposing a marriage match. Should I proceed?

Council verdict: proceed conditionally. Confidence: moderate. 3 of 5 convened schools see strong long-term compatibility (Parashari at 28/36 ashta-koota, Jaimini sees mutually-supporting chara karakas, Saravali confirms the natal yoga continuing). 2 schools flag short-term friction (Lal Kitab — the initial 18 months, Phaladeepika — the 7th-lord sub-period). The council recommends — proceed with the marriage, do the engagement at the auspicious window in Sep 2027 (MC 4.18), and ensure the bride’s upayas in the first 18 months — full list in the appendix.

Question

I am being offered a CTO role in Singapore but my chart points to staying in India. Help me decide.

Council verdict: take the role, but plan for a 3-year arc not a permanent move. Confidence: high. 4 of 5 convened schools converge — your D10 Karmesh is in a quadrant that supports international work, and the next 3-year window (Mar 2027 - Feb 2030) is your strongest professional dasha leg in 12 years. The dissenting school (Lal Kitab) emphasises the role brings strain at home — counterbalanced by the council’s own recommendation that your spouse accompanies. Upayas: Hanuman Chalisa daily for the first 90 days post-move; Surya Namaskar at sunrise three days a week.

When to use Max

• You are making a consequential decision — health, marriage, major career move.

Pro

Deep Research

Career trajectory, multi-year dasha analysis, life-arc questions, anything that warrants a brief instead of a chat reply.

Verify Your Pandit

You got a reading elsewhere and want a sober second opinion. Or you are comparing two pandits before booking.

Prediction

Time-bound yes/no or which-way questions — sports, elections, a dated decision — where you want a committed call, not a hedge.

FAQ

How many schools weigh in?

The roster spans 25 classical schools — the Parashari core (BPHS, Saravali, Phaladeepika, Jataka Parijata, Hora Sara…), Jaimini, Lal Kitab, the Western voices (Tetrabiblos, Lilly horary), Ayurveda, Tantra, and the dharma voices (Gita, Yoga-Sutras, Tirukkural). A selector convenes the 3–5 most relevant to your specific question rather than running all 25 every time — more signal, less redundancy.

What if the schools all disagree?

The council verdict will state "no consensus" and the recommendation will be conservative (delay, defer, seek qualified human consult). Disagreement is treated as a signal in itself.

Can I see the individual briefs, or only the verdict?

Both. The verdict is the headline; every individual brief is one tap away in the reading. You can also see the diff — "where they agreed / where they differed" — as a separate view.

Why is Max $79.99/month?

A single Max Council session costs us materially more than a Normal reply — seven Sonnet 4.6 inferences plus an Opus 4.7 reconciliation, plus seven independent retrievals. The price reflects the underlying compute. We do not throttle Max usage on the Max tier.
