At 12:00 PM, the Moon is in Vrishchik, outside this map; its next stay in Kumbh runs from Thursday 30 Jul, 9:08 PM to 2 Aug, 5:57 AM. Also on this map: Rahu in Kumbh.

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

Kumbh on 24 Jul: the Moon is in your 10th (career and karma) all day (Needs attention: vedha: Mars in your 4th; Vrishchik, its debilitation sign); 2 of the 9 planets support, 7 need attention.

The star given by the 1955 Calendar Reform Committee, whose Lahiri ayanamsa this site uses, is the one marked; the other reading is given beside it.

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.

Aaj ka Kumbh rashifal, read from your Moon sign. Kumbh (कुंभ) is the 11th rashi, 300° to 330° of the sidereal zodiac, ruled by Saturn, and it holds Dhanishta padas 3 and 4, all four padas of Shatabhisha and Purva Bhadrapada padas 1 to 3.

Aaj ka Kumbh Rashifal · Aquarius Moon sign

Sade Sati and Shani Dhaiya for Kumbh: 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.

Sade Sati, third phase for Kumbh: Saturn is in Meen, your 2nd, from 29 Mar 2025 to 2 Jun 2027. The whole Sade Sati runs from 23 Jan 2020 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.

  • Sade Sati 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 2nd and the other eight grahas are in the table below.

The next dhaiya (Saturn in the 4th) for Kumbh runs from 8 Aug 2029 to 30 May 2032, with Saturn stepping out of it from 5 Oct 2029 to 16 Apr 2030.

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.

  • Lord: every classical text we read gives Saturn. Some modern writers add Rahu as a co-lord of Kumbh; no text we read says so, so it is not used here.

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

Kumbh Rashi Questions

Who is the lord (swami) of Kumbh rashi?

Saturn, the lord of Kumbh, is in Meen on 24 Jul, the 2nd house from Kumbh, until 2 Jun 2027, 7:58 PM. Saturn rules Kumbh in every classical text we read: Brihat Jataka 1.6, Saravali 3.11 and Phaladeepika 1.6. Saturn also rules Makar.

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

On 24 Jul, the Moon is in Vrishchik; its next stay in Kumbh runs from Thursday 30 Jul, 9:08 PM to 2 Aug, 5:57 AM: a child born in those hours has Kumbh as janma rashi. Kumbh's nine name syllables, one for each nakshatra pada, are Gu, Ge (Dhanishta 3–4); Go, Sa, Si, Su (Shatabhisha 1–4); Se, So, Da (Purva Bhadrapada 1–3). A name starting with one of them gives Kumbh as the name rashi, which matches the janma rashi only when the name was chosen from the birth nakshatra.

Which nakshatras are in Kumbh rashi?

On 24 Jul, the Moon is in Anuradha; its next pass through Kumbh begins in Dhanishta pada 3, from Thursday 30 Jul, 9:08 PM. Kumbh covers 300° to 330° of the sidereal zodiac: Dhanishta padas 3 and 4, all four padas of Shatabhisha and Purva Bhadrapada padas 1 to 3, nine nakshatra padas in all, as every rashi has (Brihat Jataka 1.4, Hora Sara 1.13). If your rashi is Kumbh, your birth nakshatra is one of these.

What are Kumbh rashi people like?

The texts agree mainly on build: a tall, sturdy frame with broad hips and strong legs. Two of them also describe a liking for travel and the stamina for long journeys. On temperament they say different things, so only these shared points are given. These are the points that at least two of Brihat Jataka 17.11, Saravali 23.72 and Hora Sara 29.11 share. Brihat Jataka 17.13 adds that this picture holds in full only when the Moon, Kumbh and its lord Saturn 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 Kumbh rashi?

Sade Sati is running for Kumbh on 24 Jul, in its third and last phase: Saturn is in Meen, the 2nd house from Kumbh. It began on 23 Jan 2020 and ends with Saturn's final exit on 23 Feb 2028, with Saturn stepping out of it from 2 Jun 2027 to 19 Oct 2027. The next dhaiya (Saturn in the 4th) for Kumbh runs from 8 Aug 2029 to 30 May 2032, with Saturn stepping out of it from 5 Oct 2029 to 16 Apr 2030. 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 Kumbh rashi?

Jupiter moves into Singh on 31 Oct, 2:33 AM, the 7th house from Kumbh; Rahu moves into Makar and Ketu into Kark on 25 Nov, 7:16 AM (EST), the 12th and 6th houses from Kumbh (true node; by the mean node many almanacs print, on 5 Dec); Saturn moves into Mesh on 2 Jun 2027, 7:58 PM, the 3rd house from Kumbh. Saturn, Jupiter and Rahu–Ketu stay in a sign for many months, so their changes set the background for Kumbh, 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 Kumbh rashi in English?

On 24 Jul, at 12:00 PM, the Sun is in Leo 1°47′ by the tropical zodiac that birthday signs use, but in Kark 7°33′ by the sidereal zodiac of Vedic astrology. Kumbh is called Aquarius 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 Aquarius need not have Kumbh rashi.

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.
Sade Sati
Saturn's passage through the 12th, 1st and 2nd from your Moon sign, about seven and a half years; the name is later tradition, the houses are in Phaladeepika 26.22–23.
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.
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.
Debilitated (neecha)
The sign opposite its exaltation, where a graha is weakest (BPHS ch. 3).
Own sign (swarashi)
A sign the graha rules (BPHS ch. 3).
Unfriendly sign
A sign whose lord the graha naturally counts as hostile (BPHS ch. 3).

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.
