All 12 Rashis, in Hindi and English

Your Rashi is the sign the Moon occupied when you were born. Vedic astrology reads from the Moon, where Western astrology reads from the Sun, so your Rashi is often not the star sign you already know.

Rashifal questions

What is Rashifal?

+
Rashifal is the Hindi word for a horoscope reading based on your Rashi, or Moon sign. Aaj ka Rashifal simply means today's reading. It covers general themes for the day across areas like career, relationships, health and money.

What is my Rashi?

+
Your Rashi is the zodiac sign the Moon occupied at the moment you were born, one of twelve. This is different from the Western star sign most people know, which is based on the Sun. The two systems also use different zodiacs, so your Rashi and your Sun sign often do not match.

Is Rashi the same as my star sign?

+
Usually not. Western astrology uses the Sun and the tropical zodiac. Vedic astrology uses the Moon and the sidereal zodiac, which currently sits about 24 degrees apart from the tropical one. It is common for a Vedic Rashi to be one sign earlier than the familiar Western sign.

How accurate is a daily Rashifal?

+
A daily Rashifal is a general reading for everyone sharing a Moon sign, so roughly one twelfth of the population at a time. It is written for reflection rather than prediction. Anything specific to you personally needs your own birth chart, which accounts for the exact time and place you were born.
