Comprehensive Guide to Zodiac Signs & Vedic Astrology
Understanding Sun Signs vs. Moon Signs
Astrology is primarily divided into two main systems: Western Astrology and Vedic (Indian) Astrology. The key difference lies in how your sign is calculated.
- Western Zodiac (Sun Sign): Based on the position of the Sun at your birth. This is determined solely by your birth date (e.g., March 21 - April 19 is Aries). It reflects your outer personality and ego.
- Vedic Rashi (Moon Sign): Based on the position of the Moon at your exact time of birth. In Indian astrology, this is considered more important as it governs your emotions, mind, and inner self.
*Note: This calculator uses the Date-based (Sun Sign) method, which maps commonly to Rashi names for general horoscope reading.
The 4 Elements of Zodiac Signs
Every sign belongs to one of four elements, which define their fundamental nature:
- Fire Signs (Mesh, Singh, Dhanu): Passionate, dynamic, and temperamental. They get angry quickly but also forgive easily. They are adventurers with immense energy.
- Earth Signs (Vrishabh, Kanya, Makar): Grounded and practical. They are loyal and stable, preferring to build things slowly and steadily.
- Air Signs (Mithun, Tula, Kumbh): Intellectual and communicative. They love social gatherings, books, and philosophical discussions.
- Water Signs (Karka, Vrishchik, Meen): Emotional and intuitive. They are exceptionally sensitive and value deep emotional connections.

Frequently Asked Questions
What if I was born on a cusp date?
If you were born on the 19th-23rd of a month, you are on the "cusp." Your sun sign depends on the exact time the sun moved into the new constellation that year. However, for general horoscopes, the dates listed above are standard.
Can Rashi change with time?
No, your birth Rashi (Moon Sign) and Zodiac Sign (Sun Sign) are fixed at the moment of your birth and do not change throughout your life.
Which Rashi is the luckiest?
Every sign has its own luck! Jupiter-ruled signs like Dhanu (Sagittarius) and Meen (Pisces) are often considered naturally lucky, but success depends on individual Karma and planetary transits.
