How this horoscope is written

Every line comes from where the planets actually are, counted as houses from Leo, and from the classical gochara (transit) rules of Brihat Samhita and Phaladeepika, which say from which houses each planet helps and from which it hinders. The Moon changes sign every two and a quarter days, so it shapes the daily and weekly picture; the Sun, Mercury, Venus and Mars set the month; Jupiter, Saturn, Rahu and Ketu set the year.

A sign horoscope is a general picture shared by everyone with the same Moon sign. Your own chart (its dashas, the strength of each planet and the vedha, or obstruction, points that can cancel a transit) decides how it plays out for you. Make your free kundli.
