Every house is counted from Dhanu, so this chart is Dhanu's gochar on that day. Positions at 12:00 PM, sidereal (Lahiri). The number in each house is its rashi: 1 for Mesh to 12 for Meen. R after a graha: retrograde.

Dhanu on 19 Jan: the Moon is in your 6th (health, work and competition) until 7:09 PM (Needs attention: vedha: Venus in your 12th); 2 of the 9 planets support, 7 need attention.

Dhanu Rashifal for 19 Jan: Work, Love and Health

Aaj ka Dhanu rashifal, read from your Moon sign. Dhanu (धनु) is the 9th rashi, 240° to 270° of the sidereal zodiac, ruled by Jupiter, and it holds all four padas of Mula, all four padas of Purva Ashadha and Uttara Ashadha pada 1. In English it is called Sagittarius, but here it means the sign the Moon was in at your birth, not your birthday sign. Every line below names its graha, the house that graha holds from Dhanu and the classical verse behind it.

2 of the 9 planets support · 7 need attention

On 19 Jan for Dhanu, 2 of the 9 planets support, 7 need attention. The Moon in Vrishabh, your 6th (health, work and competition), until 7:09 PM: classically a favourable house, but Venus in your 12th holds it back (vedha), so its support is held back.

Mars in Singh, your 9th (fortune, dharma and father), until 9 Mar, 1:43 PM: classically not a favourable house, but with the Moon in your 6th the texts reverse it (reverse vedha), so the texts count it supportive; classical reading: standing, money and low energy.

Aaj ka Dhanu Rashifal · Sagittarius Moon sign

Sade Sati and Shani Dhaiya for Dhanu: Exact Dates

Sade Sati is Saturn's passage through the 12th, 1st and 2nd signs from the Moon sign, about seven and a half years. Dhaiya is Saturn's passage through the 4th or 8th sign from the Moon sign, about two and a half years.

Shani's dhaiya (4th) for Dhanu: Saturn is in Meen, your 4th, from 29 Mar 2025 to 2 Jun 2027. The whole dhaiya runs from 29 Mar 2025 to 23 Feb 2028, with a pause from 2 Jun 2027 to 19 Oct 2027. Traditionally this passage rewards steady effort, discipline and looking after health.

  • dhaiya Phaladeepika 26.22–23 · Brihat Samhita 104.39–45

Within this stay, Saturn's effect is classically felt most in the last third of Meen: from 1 Jul 2026 to 20 Aug 2026 and from 10 Mar 2027 to 2 Jun 2027.

  • Felt most Phaladeepika 26.25 · Muhurta Chintamani 4.19

Saturn is one of nine: the verdict for Saturn in your 4th and the other eight grahas are in the table below.

The next dhaiya (ashtama, Saturn in the 8th) for Dhanu runs from 12 Jul 2034 to 27 Aug 2036.

Counted from the Moon sign, as Phaladeepika 26.22–23 and Brihat Samhita 104 do. Each span runs from Saturn's first entry to its final exit, with every pause shown. Classically it is a time for steady effort and patience, not a fixed outcome.

A name rashi is the janma rashi only when the name was chosen from the birth nakshatra's syllable. Each fact is given in at least two classical texts, and where the texts differ both readings are shown. Left out: the element (tattva), which only one of the texts we read gives (Brihat Parashara Hora Shastra 4); and any colour, number or stone for a rashi, which none of them ties to good fortune.

Questions

Dhanu Rashi Questions

Who is the lord (swami) of Dhanu rashi?

Jupiter, the lord of Dhanu, is in Singh on 19 Jan, the 9th house from Dhanu, until Sunday 24 Jan, 3:01 PM. Jupiter rules Dhanu in every classical text we read: Brihat Jataka 1.6, Saravali 3.11 and Phaladeepika 1.6. Jupiter also rules Meen.

Which name letters (naam akshar) belong to Dhanu rashi?

On 19 Jan, the Moon is in Vrishabh; its next stay in Dhanu runs from 1 Feb, 10:52 PM to 4 Feb, 11:48 AM: a child born in those hours has Dhanu as janma rashi. Dhanu's nine name syllables, one for each nakshatra pada, are Ye, Yo, Bha, Bhi (Mula 1–4); Bhu, Dha, Pha, Dha (Purva Ashadha 1–4); Bhe (Uttara Ashadha 1). A name starting with one of them gives Dhanu as the name rashi, which matches the janma rashi only when the name was chosen from the birth nakshatra.

Which nakshatras are in Dhanu rashi?

On 19 Jan, the Moon is in Mrigashira; its next pass through Dhanu begins in Mula pada 1, from 1 Feb, 10:52 PM. Dhanu covers 240° to 270° of the sidereal zodiac: all four padas of Mula, all four padas of Purva Ashadha and Uttara Ashadha pada 1, nine nakshatra padas in all, as every rashi has (Brihat Jataka 1.4, Hora Sara 1.13). If your rashi is Dhanu, your birth nakshatra is one of these.

What are Dhanu rashi people like?

They are described as good speakers, skilled in arts and crafts, strong and bold, and versed in dharma and the shastras; the texts give them a long face and a prominent neck. These are the points that at least two of Brihat Jataka 17.9, Saravali 23.58 and Hora Sara 29.9 share. Brihat Jataka 17.13 adds that this picture holds in full only when the Moon, Dhanu and its lord Jupiter are all strong in the birth chart, and Hora Sara 29.13 that a graha joining or aspecting the Moon changes it, so your own kundli says more than the rashi alone.

When do Sade Sati and Shani dhaiya start and end for Dhanu rashi?

Shani dhaiya (Saturn in the 4th) is running for Dhanu on 19 Jan: Saturn is in Meen, the 4th house from Dhanu. It began on 29 Mar 2025 and ends with Saturn's final exit on 23 Feb 2028, with Saturn stepping out of it from 2 Jun to 19 Oct. The next dhaiya (ashtama, Saturn in the 8th) for Dhanu runs from 12 Jul 2034 to 27 Aug 2036. Each span runs from Saturn's first entry to its final exit, with every pause shown, and is counted from the Moon sign as Phaladeepika 26.22–23 and Brihat Samhita 104 count it. Classically Sade Sati and dhaiya ask for steady effort and patience; neither is a fixed outcome.

When does the time change for Dhanu rashi?

Jupiter moves into Kark on Sunday 24 Jan, 3:01 PM, the 8th house from Dhanu; Saturn moves into Mesh on 2 Jun, 7:58 PM (EDT), the 5th house from Dhanu; Rahu moves into Dhanu and Ketu into Mithun on 24 May 2028, 5:38 AM (EDT), the 1st and 7th houses from Dhanu (true node; by the mean node many almanacs print, on 23 Jun 2028). Saturn, Jupiter and Rahu–Ketu stay in a sign for many months, so their changes set the background for Dhanu, and each change above names the house it brings. The daily reading on this page weighs all nine grahas together, and no rashi has a good or a poor time as a whole.

What is Dhanu rashi in English?

On 19 Jan, at 9:34 AM, the Sun is in Capricorn 29°17′ by the tropical zodiac that birthday signs use, but in Makar 5°03′ by the sidereal zodiac of Vedic astrology. Dhanu is called Sagittarius in English, yet a rashi is the Moon's sign at birth in the sidereal zodiac, not the birthday sign, so someone whose birthday makes them Sagittarius need not have Dhanu rashi.

The count of signs from your Moon sign; the Moon sign itself is the 1st.
Vedha (obstruction)
A favourable transit is held back while another graha sits in its paired house (Phaladeepika 26.3–8).
Reverse vedha (vama vedha)
A transit that asks for patience is counted supportive while another graha sits in its paired favourable house (Muhurta Chintamani 4.4; Narada Samhita 12.8).
Chandrabala
The Moon's strength for you, counted from your Moon sign: houses 1, 3, 6, 7, 10 and 11 are good.
Tarabala
The strength of the day's nakshatra for you, counted from your birth nakshatra in rounds of nine.
Shani's dhaiya
Saturn's stay of about two and a half years in the 4th or the 8th from your Moon sign.
Retrograde (vakri)
Seen from Earth the graha appears to move backwards; shown as a fact only, as the texts differ on its meaning in transit.
Combust (asta)
Lost in the Sun's glare; in a favourable house its support is muted (Phaladeepika 26.32). Guru and Shukra: while not seen from India's reference latitude, 23°11′N (IAE); Mars, Mercury and Saturn by the books' degrees (Surya Siddhanta 9.6–9.8).
Felt most
The third of a sign in which a graha's transit is classically felt most: the Sun and Mars the first, Jupiter and Venus the middle, the Moon and Saturn the last (Phaladeepika 26.25; Muhurta Chintamani 4.19).
Mean-node reckoning
Rahu and Ketu by their average motion, which many almanacs print; its dates can differ from the true node by days.
Panchang windows in your Chandrabala
Abhijit, Amrit Kalam, Brahma Muhurta, Vijaya or a Labh, Shubh or Amrit choghadiya, clear of Rahu Kaal, Yamaganda, Dur Muhurtam, Varjyam and Bhadra, inside the hours when the Moon is in the 1st, 3rd, 6th, 7th, 10th or 11th from your Moon sign.
Exalted (uchcha)
The sign where a graha is strongest (BPHS ch. 3).
Unfriendly sign
A sign whose lord the graha naturally counts as hostile (BPHS ch. 3).
Work and Money
Our grouping: read from the 10th, 6th, 3rd, 11th, 2nd and 12th houses from your Moon sign, whose meanings name this area (BPHS ch. 11).
Love and Family
Our grouping: read from the 7th, 4th and 2nd houses from your Moon sign, whose meanings name this area (BPHS ch. 11).
Health
Our grouping: read from the 1st and 6th houses from your Moon sign, whose meanings name this area (BPHS ch. 11).
What supports
A graha in a house the texts count favourable, with nothing holding it back, or counted supportive by reverse vedha (Muhurta Chintamani 4.4).
What needs attention
Every other graha, each with the fact that puts it there: a house the texts do not count favourable, vedha, a debilitation or unfriendly sign, combustion, its own or exaltation sign in an unfavourable house, the Moon's company, or Chandrashtama.
House meaning
What each house stands for (Brihat Parashara Hora Shastra ch. 11): 1 self and body, 2 family, wealth and speech, 3 courage and siblings, 4 mother, home and happiness, 5 children, education and intelligence, 6 health, work and competition, 7 marriage and partnership, 8 research and hidden matters, 9 fortune, dharma and father, 10 career and karma, 11 gains and friends, 12 expenses, foreign lands and moksha.
