Every house is counted from Kanya, so this chart is Kanya'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.

Kanya on 9 Oct: the Moon is in your 1st all day, classically supportive, but it shares Kanya with the Sun, so its support is muted.

Kanya Rashifal for 9 Oct: Work, Love and Health

Aaj ka Kanya rashifal, read from your Moon sign. Kanya (कन्या) is the 6th rashi, 150° to 180° of the sidereal zodiac, ruled by Mercury, and it holds Uttara Phalguni padas 2 to 4, all four padas of Hasta and Chitra padas 1 and 2. In English it is called Virgo, 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 Kanya and the classical verse behind it.

Mixed?

Friday 9 October: the Moon is in Kanya, the 1st sign from Kanya, all day (until Sunday 11 Oct, 12:34 AM). Classically, the Moon in your 1st is supportive (comfort and good food), but it shares Kanya with the Sun, so its support is muted.

Mixed. By our count for Kanya on 9 Oct, of the 9 grahas: supportive 3, mixed 3, asking for patience 3; the Moon leads the day.

Work, Love and Health

Work and Money?

Classically, Rahu in your 6th favours gains, while Mars in your 11th favours gains and standing, but Mars is in Kark, its debilitation sign, so its support is muted. Together they read as mixed.

Love and Family?

Classically, Venus in your 2nd favours family, but Saturn in your 7th holds it back (vedha), so its support is held back on 9 Oct, while Saturn in your 7th asks for care with relationships: speak gently and give things time. Together they read as mixed.

Health?

Classically, the Moon in your 1st favours comfort and good food, but it shares Kanya with the Sun, so its support is muted, while the Sun in your 1st asks for care with energy: pace yourself and rest well. Together they read as mixed.

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

Kanya Rashi Questions

Who is the lord (swami) of Kanya rashi?

Mercury, the lord of Kanya, is in Tula on 9 Oct, the 2nd house from Kanya, until 2 Dec, 6:58 AM (EST). Mercury rules Kanya in every classical text we read: Brihat Jataka 1.6, Saravali 3.11 and Phaladeepika 1.6. Mercury also rules Mithun.

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

On 9 Oct, the Moon is in Kanya, from Thursday 8 Oct, 5:48 PM to Sunday 11 Oct, 12:34 AM: a child born in those hours has Kanya as janma rashi. Kanya's nine name syllables, one for each nakshatra pada, are To, Pa, Pi (Uttara Phalguni 2–4); Pu, Sha, Na, Tha (Hasta 1–4); Pe, Po (Chitra 1–2). A name starting with one of them gives Kanya as the name rashi, which matches the janma rashi only when the name was chosen from the birth nakshatra.

Which nakshatras are in Kanya rashi?

On 9 Oct, the Moon is in Hasta, one of Kanya's nakshatras, and in its pada 2 until 11:58 PM. Kanya covers 150° to 180° of the sidereal zodiac: Uttara Phalguni padas 2 to 4, all four padas of Hasta and Chitra padas 1 and 2, nine nakshatra padas in all, as every rashi has (Brihat Jataka 1.4, Hora Sara 1.13). If your rashi is Kanya, your birth nakshatra is one of these.

What are Kanya rashi people like?

They are described as truthful and learned, gentle and sweet in speech, of good conduct, with a pleasing face and gaze. These are the points that at least two of Brihat Jataka 17.6, Saravali 23.37 and Hora Sara 29.6 share. Brihat Jataka 17.13 adds that this picture holds in full only when the Moon, Kanya and its lord Mercury 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 Kanya rashi?

Neither Sade Sati nor dhaiya is running for Kanya on 9 Oct: Saturn is in Meen, the 7th house from Kanya. The next dhaiya (ashtama, Saturn in the 8th) for Kanya runs from 2 Jun 2027 to 16 Apr 2030, with Saturn stepping out of it from 19 Oct 2027 to 23 Feb 2028 and 8 Aug 2029 to 5 Oct 2029. 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 Kanya rashi?

Jupiter moves into Singh on 31 Oct, 2:33 AM, the 12th house from Kanya; Rahu moves into Makar and Ketu into Kark on 25 Nov, 7:16 AM (EST), the 5th and 11th houses from Kanya (true node; by the mean node many almanacs print, on 5 Dec); Saturn moves into Mesh on 2 Jun 2027, 7:58 PM, the 8th house from Kanya. Saturn, Jupiter and Rahu–Ketu stay in a sign for many months, so their changes set the background for Kanya, 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 Kanya rashi in English?

On 9 Oct, at 12:00 PM, the Sun is in Libra 16°23′ by the tropical zodiac that birthday signs use, but in Kanya 22°09′ by the sidereal zodiac of Vedic astrology. Kanya is called Virgo 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 Virgo need not have Kanya rashi.

Held back (vedha)
A favourable transit obstructed by another graha in its vedha house.
Support muted
A favourable transit whose graha is debilitated, in an unfriendly sign or close to the Sun, so its support is counted as muted.
Mixed
The texts pull both ways (its own or exaltation sign while close to the Sun), or the Sun, Mars, Saturn, Rahu or Ketu shares a supportive Moon's sign, so the transit is counted neither supportive nor a time for patience.
A time for patience
A transit in a house the texts count unfavourable: a time for steady effort and simple plans.
Mixed
Our label for the day when the Moon is held back, muted or eased, or shares its sign with the Sun, Mars, Saturn, Rahu or Ketu.

The Moon's company

Retrograde (vakri)

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.
