Moon in Rohini

What Rohini nakshatra is said to give

Rohini is traditionally the Moon's favorite mansion, presided over by the creator god. Its image is the ox cart, heavy with harvest. The tradition reads it as a place of growth, beauty and material comfort, and people with the Moon here are described as charming, artistic and fond of pleasure.

Strengths

Attractiveness, creativity, patience in growing things and a talent for making life comfortable.

Challenges

Possessiveness, love of luxury and difficulty letting go.

Rohini in relationships

Romantic, sensual and devoted; can be jealous when insecure.

Rohini at work

Arts, fashion, farming, food, property and anything that grows value over time.

The laden cart carries abundance to market; Rohini is the mansion of fertility and of things that ripen slowly.

Reading Rohini: gana, yoni and caste

  • Gana: Manushya — human: mixed, self-interested, neither of the extremes. Nearest Manushya neighbors: Bharani (no. 2) and Ardra (no. 6).
  • Yoni: Serpent — shared only with Mrigashira (no. 5); two charts with the same yoni get the top score for this factor.
  • Caste: Laborer. Presiding deity: Brahma, the creator; symbol: an ox-cart, a temple.
