Three different 'signs' — why people get confused
- Moon sign (Chandra rashi) — the Moon's sign at birth. Rashifal, Sade Sati and Kundli Milan all use it.
- Name rashi — from the first syllable of the name. Only a guess; it can differ from your birth rashi.
- Western sun sign (Aries, Taurus…) — the Sun's sign in the tropical zodiac. The Vedic Sun sign is about 24° behind it, so it is often one sign earlier.
Is the date of birth enough?
Usually: the Moon stays in one sign for about two and a half days. But on a day when the Moon changes sign, the right sign needs the birth time — we tell you when that's the case. The nakshatra (about one day each) needs the time even more.
Frequently asked questions
How do I find my rashi by date of birth?
Enter your birth date, time and city — the free kundli shows your Moon sign, nakshatra and pada.
Why is my name rashi different from my birth rashi?
The name rashi comes from the first syllable of the name; the birth rashi from where the Moon actually was. Rashifal and Sade Sati use the birth (Moon) rashi.
Why is my Western zodiac sign different from my Vedic rashi?
Western astrology uses the Sun's sign in the tropical zodiac; Vedic astrology uses the sidereal zodiac (Lahiri ayanamsa) and the Moon. So the two often differ.
