Makar Rashifal for 29 Jan: Work, Love and Health

Aaj ka Makar rashifal, read from your Moon sign. Makar (मकर) is the 10th rashi, 270° to 300° of the sidereal zodiac, ruled by Saturn, and it holds Uttara Ashadha padas 2 to 4, all four padas of Shravana and Dhanishta padas 1 and 2. In English it is called Capricorn, 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 Makar and the classical verse behind it.

4 of the 9 planets support · 5 need attention

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

Mars in Kumbh, your 2nd (family, wealth and speech), until 20 Feb, 3:47 PM: classically not a favourable house; classical reading: words and money.

Sade Sati and Shani Dhaiya for Makar: Calculated 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 Makar: Saturn is in Mesh, your 4th, from 5 Oct 2029 to 17 Apr 2030. The whole dhaiya runs from 3 Jun 2027 to 17 Apr 2030, with a pause from 20 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 5 Oct 2029 to 17 Apr 2030.

  • 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 (8th house) for Makar runs from 27 Aug 2036 to 13 Jul 2039, with Saturn stepping out of it from 22 Oct 2038 to 5 Apr 2039.

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.

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

Makar Rashi Questions

Who is the lord (swami) of Makar rashi?

Saturn, the lord of Makar, is in Mesh on 29 Jan, the 4th house from Makar, until 17 Apr, 9:08 AM. Saturn rules Makar in every classical text we read: Brihat Jataka 1.6, Saravali 3.11 and Phaladeepika 1.6. Saturn also rules Kumbh.

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

On 29 Jan, the Moon is in Vrishchik; its next stay in Makar runs from Friday 1 Feb, 11:29 AM to Sunday 3 Feb, 4:10 PM: a child born in those hours has Makar as janma rashi. Makar's nine name syllables, one for each nakshatra pada, are Bho, Ja, Ji (Uttara Ashadha 2–4); Khi, Khu, Khe, Kho (Shravana 1–4); Ga, Gi (Dhanishta 1–2). A name starting with one of them gives Makar as the name rashi, which matches the janma rashi only when the name was chosen from the birth nakshatra.

Which nakshatras are in Makar rashi?

On 29 Jan, the Moon is in Jyeshtha; its next pass through Makar begins in Uttara Ashadha pada 2, from Friday 1 Feb, 11:29 AM. Makar covers 270° to 300° of the sidereal zodiac: Uttara Ashadha padas 2 to 4, all four padas of Shravana and Dhanishta 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 Makar, your birth nakshatra is one of these.

What are Makar rashi people like?

They are described as steady and good-natured, well liked, with a gift for poetry and words; careful with money, fond of travel, unhurried in pace and not fond of the cold. The texts also give them fine eyes. These are the points that at least two of Brihat Jataka 17.10, Saravali 23.65 and Hora Sara 29.10 share. Brihat Jataka 17.13 adds that this picture holds in full only when the Moon, Makar 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 Makar rashi?

Shani dhaiya is running for Makar on 29 Jan: Saturn is in Mesh, the 4th house from Makar. It began on 3 Jun 2027 and ends with Saturn's final exit on 17 Apr, with Saturn stepping out of it from 20 Oct 2027 to 23 Feb 2028 and 8 Aug 2029 to 5 Oct 2029. The next dhaiya (8th house) for Makar runs from 27 Aug 2036 to 13 Jul 2039, with Saturn stepping out of it from 22 Oct 2038 to 5 Apr 2039. 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 Makar rashi?

Rahu moves into Vrishchik and Ketu into Vrishabh on Monday 4 Feb, 1:08 PM, the 11th and 5th houses from Makar (true node; by the mean node many almanacs print, on 11 Jan); Saturn moves into Vrishabh on 17 Apr, 9:08 AM, the 5th house from Makar; Jupiter moves into Tula on 1 May, 2:17 PM, the 10th house from Makar. Saturn, Jupiter and Rahu–Ketu stay in a sign for many months, so their changes set the background for Makar, 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 Makar rashi in English?

On 29 Jan, at 12:00 PM, the Sun is in Aquarius 9°23′ by the tropical zodiac that birthday signs use, but in Makar 15°06′ by the sidereal zodiac of Vedic astrology. Makar is called Capricorn 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 Capricorn need not have Makar rashi.
