Aaj ka Dhanu Rashifal · Sagittarius Moon sign · Sunday 11 March 2029

Dhanu Rashifal for 11 Mar: 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.

0 of the 9 planets support · 9 need attention

The day's main graha: the Moon (in the attention list).

The Moon in Makar, your 2nd (family, wealth and speech), until Monday 12 Mar, 11:15 AM (EDT): classically not a favourable house; classical reading: money matters.

Saturn in Mesh, your 5th (children, education and intelligence), until 8 Aug, 3:02 AM (EDT): classically not a favourable house, but with Jupiter in your 11th the texts reverse it (reverse vedha), and Saturn is in Mesh, its debilitation sign, so its support is muted; classical reading: children and money.

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.

No Sade Sati or dhaiya for Dhanu now: Saturn is in Mesh, your 5th, until 8 Aug 2029. The next, dhaiya (8th), runs from 12 Jul 2034 to 27 Aug 2036.

The next dhaiya (8th house) 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 Tula on 11 Mar, the 11th house from Dhanu, until 29 Mar, 5:02 AM (EDT). 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 11 Mar, the Moon is in Makar; its next stay in Dhanu runs from 4 Apr, 12:01 AM (EDT) to 6 Apr, 6:46 AM (EDT): 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 11 Mar, the Moon is in Shravana; its next pass through Dhanu begins in Mula pada 1, from 4 Apr, 12:01 AM (EDT). 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?

Neither Sade Sati nor dhaiya is running for Dhanu on 11 Mar: Saturn is in Mesh, the 5th house from Dhanu. The next dhaiya (8th house) 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 Kanya on 29 Mar, 5:02 AM (EDT), the 10th house from Dhanu; Saturn moves into Vrishabh on 8 Aug, 3:02 AM (EDT), the 6th house from Dhanu; Rahu moves into Vrishchik and Ketu into Vrishabh on 4 Feb 2030, 2:38 AM, the 12th and 6th houses from Dhanu (true node; by the mean node many almanacs print, on 10 Jan 2030). 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 11 Mar, at 12:30 PM (EDT), the Sun is in Pisces 21°23′ by the tropical zodiac that birthday signs use, but in Kumbh 27°07′ 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.

Needs attention: both facts
Its own or exaltation sign while close to the Sun (combust): no text read ranks one above the other, so both facts are shown; or the Sun, Mars, Saturn, Rahu or Ketu sharing a favourable Moon's sign (Muhurta Chintamani 4.7).
Gochar (transit)
The movement of the grahas through the signs, read from your Moon sign (Phaladeepika 26.1).
House (bhava)
The count of signs from your Moon sign; the Moon sign itself is the 1st.
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.
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.
Texts differ
The classical texts read this placement differently; we follow most of them and name the text that differs.
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.
Debilitated (neecha)
The sign opposite its exaltation, where a graha is weakest (BPHS ch. 3).
Unfriendly sign
A sign whose lord the graha naturally counts as hostile (BPHS ch. 3).
