Is it possible to tell your moon sign without knowing your date of birth?
The moon travels fast across the 12 zodiac signs, taking about a month to visit all of them. This is why, unlike finding your sun sign, determining your moon sign requires extreme precision. As a result, you cannot determine your lunar sign only based on your date of birth. To find out your specific moon sign, you’ll need your birth date, the geographic place where you were born, and the hour of your birth.
For correct lunar sign placement, it’s crucial to be as close to minutes as feasible. On the internet, you can find various astrology websites that will determine your moon sign based on your birth date, place of birth, and time of birth. You can also contact an experienced astrologer to identify your moon sign based on an estimate of your birth time.
Is it possible to find your rising sign without knowing your date of birth?
You must know your exact birth time in order to establish your rising sign. Because the rising sign changes every two hours, this is the case. Fortunately, your birth time is printed on your birth certificate.
What method do you use to determine your moon sign?
While determining your sun sign is simple (based on your birth date), determining your moon sign is a little more difficult.
Calculating your full date, location, and time of birth, as well as your position around the moon, yields your moon sign.
It travels fast across the zodiac, spending two to two and a half days in each sign.
Your lunar sign is likely to differ from your solar sign; for example, you may be a Taurus, but your lunar sign is Sagittarius.
How do you figure out when you were born?
Now I’ll provide a few real-life case studies to demonstrate how the method of event-based birth time rectification works.
The birth time of this individual was not correctly recorded, and it was stated to me that it might have been anywhere between 1:00 a.m. and 2:00 a.m. If we use the time of 02:00 a.m. to cast the birth chart, Pisces (Meena) is the ascendant rising sign. However, if we choose 01:00 a.m. as the birth time, Aquarius is the ascendant (Kumbha).
- Siblings: This local is the youngest of four siblings. If we look at the Aquarius lagan, we can see that Rahu in the third house causes one brother or sister to be the youngest or oldest. However, the 3rd house in Pisces sees the Sun, Venus, and Mercury receiving the aspect of Jupiter, indicating the birth of a younger brother. In the instance of Pisces lagna, he was born with the balance dasha of the Sun, which would have given him younger siblings.
- The native graduated with a bachelor’s degree in civil engineering. According to a study published in Shri K.N. Rao’s book “Planets and Instruction,” civil engineering education originates from the fifth, fourth, and tenth houses, with planes Mars (land), Mercury (measuring), and Saturn (building material) playing a role. Now, in this situation, civil engineering studies come from the Aquarius lagan only because the 5th lord Mercury enters the 4th house there, together with the 4th lord Venus, who receives the aspect of Saturn. Mars, another essential planet for civil engineering, is in aspect with the tenth house. Such civil engineering combinations are not obvious if we look at the Pisces lagan.
- He relocated to Canada in 1990 after leaving the United States. In his horoscope, it was Jupiter maha dasha in Vimshottari. When we look at the Aquarius lagna, we can see that Jupiter is in the 12th house of foreign land. Jupiter’s depositor is Saturn, who is located in the 7th house, which is the house of travel abroad. The elder brother of the local has also relocated to another country, which is also explained by the Aquarius horoscope, as the 11th lord is in the 12th house. Jupiter becomes the 12th lord in the Navamsha chart, confirming the Aquarius lagna’s settlement in a faraway nation.
In this example, if we apply the Pisces lagan, Jupiter in the 11th house does not indicate a settlement in another country during its dasha.
- Marriage Delay: The native married in 1981, when he was 32 years old, during his Rahu-Mercury dasha. There was a significant delay in marriage at the time. Now, this could be plausible from the Aquarius lagna, where Saturn rules the 7th house and the 7th lord Sun receives Saturn’s aspect, indicating a delay in marriage. The 7th lord Moon receives the aspect of Saturn from the 6th lord in Navamsha. It has been found that when Saturn rules the 7th house, 7th lord, and/or Venus in both Rashi and Navamsha charts, marriage is delayed.
In the Rashi chart, the 7th house receives the Jupiter aspect if we apply the Pisces lagan. The lagna in Navamsha shows Venus obtaining an aspect from Jupiter in the 9th house, indicating an early marriage combo. As a result, this point also shows that the native’s lagna must be Aquarius exclusively. Since his Saturn dasha began in 2005, the native’s wife has been suffering from ‘Vata’ ailments. It is simply explained by the Aquarius lagan and the presence of Saturn in the Rashi chart’s 7th house. As a result, I set the Aquarius ascendant for the native to 01:00 a.m. exclusively.
Now I’m looking at the horoscope of this native’s daughter, whose birth occurred at the intersection of two ascendants.
In the instance of this young lady, the ascendant was rising near the junction of Aries and Taurus.
- Marriage: This young lady’s father was concerned about her marriage. From June 2015 until June 2018, she was in the Venus-Venus Vimshottari dasha. I was given the Taurus lagan chart in my palm, and his father inquired about her daughter’s wedding plans. He had visited numerous astrologers over the years, and her daughter, now 34, was frustrated because she couldn’t find the proper spouse for herself. I advised this gentleman that her daughter’s horoscope could only be of Aries lagna since it indicates a delay in marriage. The placement of three benefic planets Jupiter, Mercury, and Venus in the Taurus lagna horoscope would have provided her with a timely marriage. In the Navamsha, Jupiter is in the 7th house, while Saturn, the lagna lord, is well-placed in the 11th house, indicating marriage at the appropriate age in the Taurus lagan chart.
However, if we look at the chart from the Aries ascendant, we can observe that Saturn is in the 7th house, and the 7th lord Venus is in combustion in the 8th house, indicating that her marriage will be delayed. Venus, the 7th lord, is in the ‘Paap-Kartari’ yoga, which explains the difficulties in achieving marital bliss. The Navamsha lagna shifts to Sagittarius, with the lagna and 7th lord in an unfavorable position.
- She received her higher education in Canada after emigrating from India in 1998. Only the Aries lagna can explain her migration to a strange place. The 4th Lord Moon enters the 12th House here. During her Mercury-Moon dasha in Vimshottari, she traveled to Canada. The placement of planets in the 12th house in Navamsha indicates her relocation to another country. If we look at the Taurus lagna, the 4th lord Sun, together with benefic planets in the 7th house, would not have provided her with a foreign settlement and family.
- Skin allergies and a tense relationship with her father: Due to a tense relationship with her father and difficulties at work, this young girl was suffering from skin allergies and despair. These things are also abundantly obvious from the Aries horoscope, where Mercury, the 6th lord, is in the 8th house, indicating skin ailments. The negative exchange between the 8th lord Mars and the 9th lord Jupiter indicates friction in the father-daughter connection. Her career was hampered by the dasha of ‘Maraka’ Venus, which was poorly placed in the 8th house. Because of its relationship with the Sun, Mercury, and Jupiter, Venus enters Raja Yogas and Dhana Yogas in the Taurus lagna.
As a result of the circumstances described above, I assigned this native an Aries ascendant.
What should you do if you don’t know when you were born?
Because of the Earth’s daily rotation, the planets and the sky are always in motion. A freeze-frame is provided by your birth chart. It’s a photograph of the sky taken at the time and place when you first entered the world. For an accurate chart reading, you must know your exact birth time, date, and location.
The Moon, for example, changes signs every 2-3 days. Only your birth time can tell you what sign the Moon was in when you were born if you were born on a day when it moved from one sign to another.
Rising indicators change even more quickly. The ascendant (also known as the rising sign) is the sign that is currently climbing over the Eastern horizon. This is the point in your birth chart that most closely symbolizes you: your body, your vitality, and your sense of self. This sign forms your 1st House of self and identity because it is so unique to you. The sign after that becomes your 2nd House of assets, resources, and livelihood, and the sign after that forms your 3rd House of communication, everyday life, siblings, and extended family, among other things. You won’t know which signs match to which residences unless you know your rising sign.
Every 1-2 hours, rising signs move, with the entire zodiac rolodexing over the horizon in a 24-hour period. Furthermore, every couple of minutes, the exact degree ascending (that is, the degree of your ascendant) advances. That’s why, in astrology, your rising sign is so essential, and why we put so much emphasis on it in the CHANI app. It is one-of-a-kind to you.
The same can be stated for your birth chart’s other anchors. The exact time, day, and location of your birth establish the points of your MC (which represents your career and public duties), IC (home, family, and roots), and DC (close relationships).
If you don’t know your birth time, there are a variety of ways to work with your chart, but we wanted to provide you some ideas on how to find the most accurate astrological analysis possible. It helps if you know and interact with your parents and caregivers because different hospitals, states, and nations have varied protocols when it comes to documenting births. That is not an option for many persons who have been adopted or whose parents are deceased or have lost contact.
Age can also be a factor. It may be more difficult to locate earlier data, while this is not always the case, and/or some hospitals only began recording birth times after a certain date.
