Moon Sign Calculator
If the sun sign is the headline, the Moon is often the fine print people actually live. This calculator follows the Vedic path: Janma Rashi from Lahiri sidereal Chandra, with nakshatra and pada when we can place the Moon cleanly.
A date alone uses a noon estimate. Add birth time and city when you can — especially if you were born near a rashi or nakshatra boundary, where the Moon doesn’t linger.
Why Moon matters in Jyotish
In Vedic astrology, the Moon sign sits close to day-to-day mind and to matching systems like Ashtakoota. Nakshatra adds a finer lunar-mansion layer that most Western sun-sign pages never mention.
Moon sign isn’t sun sign
Your Western sun and Vedic Moon rashi are different calculations. Plenty of people are something like “Libra sun, Kumbha moon.” Both can show up together in the full multi-tradition reading — no need to pick a favorite under pressure.
Frequently asked questions
Do I need birth time?
It’s strongly recommended. The Moon moves quickly; without time we estimate from local noon. Time plus city is better near sign changes.
Which ayanamsa do you use?
Lahiri sidereal for Moon longitude — the same convention used elsewhere in this app’s Vedic path.
