Rashi starts with one useful question: which placement?
A Rashi is a zodiac sign. In this report, the overview's Moon sign (Rashi) card refers specifically to the sign occupied by the birth Moon. Other planets and the Ascendant have signs too.

Moon sign, Sun sign and Lagna
Moon sign uses the Moon's position. Sun sign uses the Sun's position. Lagna is the Ascendant: the rising point calculated for the birth moment and location, which organizes the houses. One person can have different signs for all three.
Birth-month lists cannot reliably identify a Moon Rashi or Lagna. Popular Sun-sign date ranges may also use a different zodiac from this sidereal report. Enter the actual details and compare the calculation settings instead of trying to match a familiar label.
Sign names are an introduction, not a complete reading
Check which body a sign label belongs to before reading a description. Then look at its degree, Nakshatra and the wider chart. People who share a Moon sign do not share an identical chart, biography or future.
This app uses Lahiri ayanamsa by default and supports other settings. Close to a boundary, the chosen convention or an uncertain birth time can change a sign. Read the warnings and keep symbolic personality themes separate from calculated positions.
Before you begin.
Clear answers, so you can explore with confidence.
Can I find my Rashi from my name?
This calculator finds Moon Rashi from birth details and a calculated Moon position. It does not infer a birth chart from the spelling of a name.
Is Rashi always the same as Lagna?
No. The Moon sign and Ascendant are different chart factors. They can happen to fall in the same sign, but one is not a substitute for the other.
