“No two people are alike”, as they say. Well, it turns out to be, this is not merely a saying – it has an astrological basis.

The #HinduVedicAstrology primarily analyzes a birth horoscope on the basis of Rising and Moon signs. The Sun sign is not really given much importance.

Sun Sign Vs Ascendant

Sun Sign / Moon Sign or the Ascendant?

RisingSign vs MoonSign vs SunSign

The #RisingSign or the #Ascendant is the zodiac sign visible on the line of eastern horizon at that particular location at the time of birth. It’s duration is quite short and it gives the most accurate picture of our destiny.

The #MoonSign or the #Rashi (in Sanskrit) is the zodiac sign where moon is placed in the horoscope at the time of birth. This sign depicts the mental traits of the individual and in certain cases, it can also be used to predict events in an individual’s life. The duration of moon’s transit in Rashi is around 2 1/2 days.

The #SunSign is obviously the zodiac sign where the Sun is passing through at the time of birth. It is the most generic description of the individual. It’s influence cannot be denied. But as per the Hindu Vedic Astrology, it cannot be relied upon for making predictions.

An individual is a mix of all the three influences – not just one. And that’s the reason why two people having the same zodiac sign are neverĀ alike. So Paul and Peter may both by Aries by Sun Sign, but their Moon and the Rising Signs may be completely different.

So now when you read your weekly or monthly horoscope, do takeĀ all the three zodiac signs influences into account and read three zodiac signs for yourself – in this order –

1. The rising Sign

2. The moon Sign

3. The sun Sign
