The Moon waxes and wanes because it was punished for giving Rohini too much attention.

Your moon is in Rohini the 4th of 27 lunar mansions of vedic (ancient Indian) astrology. 10:00 to 23:20 Taurus sidereal (galactically).

We often get what we ask for, reflection can be worthwhile, writing a diary or meditation helps, sharing is always good for us.

You may get sidetracked by worldly possessions - then you will be ebbing and flowing like the moon. Instead you can experience spiritual liberation.

You are ruled by the Moon, and the Moon has many cycles apart from reflecting the sunlight. Astrologically the moon takes on the character of what is near to it.

Sprouting, growing and rising are what you are a part of. And they symbolise the growth that you can inspire into every situation.

Allow yourself to learn from every encounter, you can use your abilities in avoiding obstacles to work in the fashion, beauty or leisure industries.

You have a feel for art, music the colour red and all things aquatic and also travel and movement. Yoga or eurhythmy (steiner movement) would illuminate your grace, charm and beauty and inspire your spiritual destiny, giving rise to prominence and influence.

Your sidereal moon at birth was at ………………..
Your Moon phase was .................

Indian Astrology

In both Indian (Vedic) and Western astrology, the Zodiac is split into twelve solar 30-degree divisions.

The Vedic Zodiac resembles what is seen through a telescope. But Western astrology takes into account the wobble (precession, or Ayanamsa) of the Earth's axis.

Therefore there is a 24° difference in the Zodiacal divisions. So if your Sun is in Taurus in Western astrology, then your Sun sign is probably Aries in Vedic astrology. Precession is only relative to our Sun, and therefore the Solar system (Tropical Zodiac). Not to our Galaxy.

Vedic astrology is Galactic (Sidereal) based. The Planets relay with their personalities, influences from the Galactic Centre, about 6° Sagittarius (Sidereal).

Vedic astrology is mathematical, with numerous divisions and ways of cross-referencing. Even the latitudes of the Planets are considered, as is the distance between the Sun and the Moon. From birth different planets rule us. Graha is the word for planets, meaning 'rays of energy'

B.V. Raman is the most influential Vedic Astrologer in the 20th Century. A prolific writer. Krishnamurti also created an astrological system from the original Sanskrit texts. The North Indian Chart is House based. The South Indian Chart is Sign based.
