Sidereal vs Tropical Zodiac: Why Vedic Moon Signs Differ
In Western astrology, signs are fixed to seasonal equinoxes (the Tropical Zodiac). Over thousands of years, the wobble of Earth's rotational axis (precession of the equinoxes) has shifted the actual physical constellations relative to seasonal dates by approximately 24 degrees. This offset is known in Indian astronomy as Lahiri Ayanamsa (చిత్రపక్ష అయనాంశ).
Vedic astrology calculates the true physical constellation the Moon occupied at your moment of birth. Because the Moon changes constellations every 54 hours, individuals born within the same month usually possess entirely different Janma Rashis.
