What is my Rasi?
Your Rasi, also written Rashi, is the sidereal zodiac sign occupied by the Moon at your birth. Tamil astrology treats the Moon sign as a central marker of emotional temperament, instinct, and everyday experience. The calculator uses the actual birth instant rather than guessing from your name or Sun sign.
There are 12 Rasis, from Mesha through Meena. Each has a ruling planet, element, quality, and group of Nakshatras. Your result shows both the traditional name and its familiar Western equivalent.
Why might my Rasi differ from my zodiac sign?
Most Western horoscopes use the tropical Sun sign. This calculator uses the sidereal Moon with the Lahiri ayanamsa used widely in Indian astrology. The different celestial body and zodiac reference point mean the result can be different from your Western sign.
