Star positions are worked out for the hour from the catalogue (proper motion, parallax and aberration), in the same sidereal frame as the planets, with Lahiri ayanamsa. For the 36 stars compared, Swiss Ephemeris's own star file agrees within 2.4 arc-seconds. The Moon and planets are placed as seen from the Earth's centre; from your own place the Moon can look up to about 1° away from its spot here. The figure lines are our own; each yogatara is given by at least two of the sources listed above.

Kanya Rashifal for 25 Jul: 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.

Sade Sati and Shani Dhaiya for Kanya: 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 (8th) for Kanya: Saturn is in Mesh, your 8th, from 23 Feb 2028 to 8 Aug 2029. The whole dhaiya runs from 2 Jun 2027 to 16 Apr 2030, with a pause from 19 Oct 2027 to 23 Feb 2028 and from 8 Aug 2029 to 5 Oct 2029. Traditionally this passage is a time for 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 Mesh: from 2 May 2029 to 8 Aug 2029.
- Felt most Phaladeepika 26.25 · Muhurta Chintamani 4.19
Saturn is one of nine: the verdict for Saturn in your 8th and the other eight grahas are in the table below.
The next Sade Sati for Kanya begins on 27 Aug 2036 and ends with Saturn's final exit on 29 Aug 2044, with Saturn stepping out of it from 11 Dec 2043 to 22 Jun 2044.
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.

- Exalted, debilitated, moolatrikona
- Mercury is exalted (uchcha) in Kanya and Venus debilitated (neecha); Kanya is also Mercury's moolatrikona sign.Brihat Jataka 1.13–14; Saravali 3.34–36; Phaladeepika 1.6–7
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 Kark on 25 Jul, the 11th house from Kanya, until 4 Aug, 10:11 PM. 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 25 Jul, the Moon is in Kanya, from 3:16 PM to Thursday 27 Jul, 5:13 PM: 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 25 Jul, the Moon is in Uttara Phalguni, one of Kanya's nakshatras, and in its pada 2 until 8:44 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?
Shani dhaiya is running for Kanya on 25 Jul: Saturn is in Mesh, the 8th house from Kanya. It began on 2 Jun 2027 and ends with Saturn's final exit on 16 Apr 2030, with Saturn stepping out of it from 19 Oct 2027 to 23 Feb and 8 Aug 2029 to 5 Oct 2029. The next Sade Sati for Kanya begins on 27 Aug 2036 and ends with Saturn's final exit on 29 Aug 2044, with Saturn stepping out of it from 11 Dec 2043 to 22 Jun 2044. 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 Tula on 26 Dec, 3:10 AM (EST), the 2nd house from Kanya; Saturn moves into Vrishabh on 8 Aug 2029, 3:02 AM, the 9th house from Kanya; Rahu moves into Vrishchik and Ketu into Vrishabh on 4 Feb 2030, 2:38 AM (EST), the 3rd and 9th houses from Kanya (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 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 25 Jul, at 7:38 AM, the Sun is in Leo 3°03′ by the tropical zodiac that birthday signs use, but in Kark 8°48′ 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.
