Born with the Moon in Bharani

In Vedic astrology, the mansion the Moon was in when you were born is your birth star. It also sets where your life’s chapters (dashas) begin: a life born under Bharani begins in a Venus chapter.

A chapter of love and ease: relationships, beauty, art and comfort.

A whole Venus chapter lasts 20 years. You arrive partway through it, depending on how far the Moon had travelled through Bharani.

Nakshatras are counted in the sidereal zodiac, which follows the stars. It sits about 24° behind the tropical zodiac most Western horoscopes use, so your Moon’s Western sign and its Vedic sign can differ.
