Planets in signs are listed in the table below the chart.
In the table below:
The first row, "Ascendant", is your Ascendant sign (your main zodiac sign). In our example, it’s Virgo.
The second row, "Sun", is your actual Sun sign, which is Cancer in our example.
The third row, "Moon", is your Moon sign, which is Scorpio in our example.
Your two main zodiac signs in the Jyotish system are the Ascendant and the Moon signs.
The Ascendant sign is the sign where your first house is located, the first row in the table.
The Ascendant sign does not depend on the month you were born, so it can be very different from the zodiac sign you are used to in Western astrology.
The Ascendant sign is the primary sign in Jyotish astrology. It indicates your instinctive behavior pattern, temperament, character, and appearance.
The Moon sign, along with the Ascendant, is crucial in Jyotish astrology. It points to your psychological settings and perception of the world, how you react to events, think, and show emotions, and what brings you emotional comfort and a sense of security.
Now that you know your Ascendant and Moon signs, please read the astrological forecasts and articles on the website with this knowledge in mind. Start by reading the forecast for your Ascendant sign, then for your Moon sign.
