Karmic Tail Calculator – a free, explainable Matrix of Destiny tool

I’ve been studying the Matrix of Destiny for a while, mostly out of curiosity. The “karmic tail” part of the system is fascinating, but whenever I tried to look it up online I kept hitting the same wall: either the calculator was paywalled, or it gave me a number with no explanation. I didn’t mind paying occasionally, but the lack of clarity was frustrating—I wanted to understand the reasoning, not just receive a result.

  So I built a small tool for myself: a straightforward karmic tail calculator that takes a birth date (name optional) and returns the past /
  present / future karmic tail numbers with short explanations of what each part is supposed to represent. The goal wasn’t to “gamify” it; it
  was to make the result legible, fast, and free. After using it personally and showing it to a few friends, I decided to publish it as a
  simple, accessible webpage.

  Why it might be useful:

  - Free, no login, no credit card. The first thing I wanted was frictionless access, so it’s fully open.
  - Minimal input. Just a birth date (name optional); results appear immediately.
  - Explainable output. Each of the past/present/future values is accompanied by a short description so you can understand what the number is
    supposed to mean in this framework.
  - Shareable. The tool generates a URL you can share with others if you’re comparing results.
  - Multi-language structure. The site is built to support localization since this topic has an international audience.

  Tech stack:

  - Static site (no build step, no server)
  - Tailwind via CDN for styling (kept it lightweight and easy to iterate)
  - Vanilla JS for the calculation logic, shared across related tools (a common analysis.js file)
  - Umami for privacy‑friendly analytics

  I’m curious if the explanations feel clear enough for someone who hasn’t seen the Matrix of Destiny before. Happy to hear feedback or
  suggestions.
