What is Janma Rashi?

Your Janma Rashi is your Vedic Moon sign — the zodiac sign occupied by the Moon at the exact moment of your birth. In Vedic (sidereal) astrology, the Rashi is calculated using the Lahiri ayanamsa, so it can differ from the Sun sign used in Western astrology.

The Moon governs the mind, emotions, and instinct, which is why the Janma Rashi is considered one of the most important points in a birth chart. It forms the basis for the Vimshottari Dasha (planetary periods), Kundli Milan (marriage matching), Nakshatra-based naming, and most daily Rashifal predictions.
