About the Rashi (Moon Sign) calculator

In Vedic astrology your Moon sign (Rashi) carries far more weight than the Sun sign popular in the West. It governs your emotional nature and is the reference point for daily horoscopes and major predictive systems.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

What is a Rashi?

Rashi is the Sanskrit word for a zodiac sign. Your Janma Rashi is the sign your Moon was in at birth, and it is central to Vedic astrology.

Why is the Moon sign so important in Vedic astrology?

The Moon represents the mind and emotions. Vedic horoscopes, Dasha periods and Sade Sati are all read from the Moon sign rather than the Sun sign.

Is my Rashi the same as my Western zodiac sign?

Usually not. Vedic astrology uses the sidereal zodiac and the Moon, so your Rashi often differs from your Western (Sun) sign.
