The Moon in Different Signs (Vedic Astrology)

In Vedic astrology, the placement of the Moon in different zodiac signs (rāśis) is of great importance. The Moon represents the mind, emotions, sensitivity, habits, and overall mental disposition of a person. Its sign placement not only affects personality and appearance but also the quality of relationships, wealth, and spirituality. Additionally, the aspects (dṛṣṭis) of other planets on the Moon further modify its results.
