About this calculator
Your Moonsign (Chandra Rashi) is the zodiac sign the Moon occupied at the moment of your birth. In Vedic astrology, it represents your emotional nature, inner world, and how you instinctively react.
Vedic background
Where Western astrology reads the Sun as the core of personality, the Vedic tradition places the Moon at the centre — she governs the mind (manas). Classical texts such as Brihat Parashara Hora Shastra treat the Moonsign as the primary lens for temperament, timing of life events, and compatibility. This is why birth-time accuracy matters more in Vedic readings than in Western ones.
