The 12 Rashis and their Traits
In Vedic astrology, there are 12 Rashis, each corresponding to a specific area of the sky through which the Sun, Moon, and planets move. The Rashis are:
- Aries (Mesha)
- Taurus (Vrishabha)
- Gemini (Mithuna)
- Cancer (Karka)
- Leo (Simha)
- Virgo (Kanya)
- Libra (Tula)
- Scorpio (Vrishchika)
- Sagittarius (Dhanu)

In Vedic astrology, the position of the planets and stars at the time of a person's birth is believed to influence their personality, life events, and relationships. The placement of the Moon in a specific Rashi is particularly important in Vedic astrology, as it is believed to reveal a person's emotional nature and inner self.
