Mesh Rashifal for 25 Jan: Work, Love and Health

Aaj ka Mesh rashifal, read from your Moon sign. Mesh (मेष) is the 1st rashi, 0° to 30° of the sidereal zodiac, ruled by Mars, and it holds all four padas of Ashwini, all four padas of Bharani and Krittika pada 1. In English it is called Aries, 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 Mesh and the classical verse behind it.

1 of the 9 planets supports · 8 need attention

Work and Money?

Work and Money: needs attention: the Sun, Mercury, Rahu and Saturn.

The Sun in Makar, your 10th (career and karma), until 13 Feb, 10:09 AM: classically favourable for success in work, but Jupiter in your 4th holds it back (vedha), and the Sun is in Makar, whose lord Saturn is not its natural friend, so its support is held back.

Rahu in Makar, your 10th (career and karma), until 24 May 2028, 3:08 PM: classically not a favourable house by most texts (favourable in Phaladeepika 26.2); the texts name no separate result of it for work and money.

Sade Sati and Shani Dhaiya for Mesh: 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, first phase for Mesh: Saturn is in Meen, your 12th, from 29 Mar 2025 to 3 Jun 2027. The whole Sade Sati runs from 29 Mar 2025 to 31 May 2032. 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 2 Jul 2026 to 20 Aug 2026 and from 11 Mar 2027 to 3 Jun 2027.

  • Felt most Phaladeepika 26.25 · Muhurta Chintamani 4.19

Saturn is one of nine: the verdict for Saturn in your 12th and the other eight grahas are in the table below.

The next dhaiya (Saturn in the 4th) for Mesh runs from 13 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

Mesh Rashi Questions

Who is the lord (swami) of Mesh rashi?

Mars, the lord of Mesh, is in Singh on 25 Jan, the 5th house from Mesh, until 10 Mar, 12:13 AM. Mars rules Mesh in every classical text we read: Brihat Jataka 1.6, Saravali 3.11 and Phaladeepika 1.6. Mars also rules Vrishchik.

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

On 25 Jan, the Moon is in Singh; its next stay in Mesh runs from 12 Feb, 5:42 AM to 14 Feb, 11:28 AM: a child born in those hours has Mesh as janma rashi. Mesh's nine name syllables, one for each nakshatra pada, are Chu, Che, Cho, La (Ashwini 1–4); Li, Lu, Le, Lo (Bharani 1–4); A (Krittika 1). A name starting with one of them gives Mesh as the name rashi, which matches the janma rashi only when the name was chosen from the birth nakshatra.

Which nakshatras are in Mesh rashi?

On 25 Jan, the Moon is in Purva Phalguni; its next pass through Mesh begins in Ashwini pada 1, from 12 Feb, 5:42 AM. Mesh covers 0° to 30° of the sidereal zodiac: all four padas of Ashwini, all four padas of Bharani and Krittika pada 1, nine nakshatra padas in all, as every rashi has (Brihat Jataka 1.4, Hora Sara 1.13). If your rashi is Mesh, your birth nakshatra is one of these.

What are Mesh rashi people like?

They are described as courageous and self-respecting, with a quick, restless energy that likes to keep moving; friendly and well liked, light eaters, with round eyes. These are the points that at least two of Brihat Jataka 17.1, Saravali 23.1 and Hora Sara 29.1 share. Brihat Jataka 17.13 adds that this picture holds in full only when the Moon, Mesh and its lord Mars 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 Mesh rashi?

Sade Sati is running for Mesh on 25 Jan, in its first phase: Saturn is in Meen, the 12th house from Mesh. It began on 29 Mar 2025 and ends with Saturn's final exit on 31 May 2032. The next dhaiya (Saturn in the 4th) for Mesh runs from 13 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 Mesh rashi?

Saturn moves into Mesh itself on 3 Jun, 5:28 AM; Jupiter moves into Singh on 26 Jun, 5:19 AM, the 5th house from Mesh; Rahu moves into Dhanu and Ketu into Mithun on 24 May 2028, 3:08 PM, the 9th and 3rd houses from Mesh (true node; by the mean node many almanacs print, on 24 Jun 2028). Saturn, Jupiter and Rahu–Ketu stay in a sign for many months, so their changes set the background for Mesh, 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 Mesh rashi in English?

On 25 Jan, at 12:46 PM, the Sun is in Aquarius 5°04′ by the tropical zodiac that birthday signs use, but in Makar 10°50′ by the sidereal zodiac of Vedic astrology. Mesh is called Aries 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 Aries need not have Mesh rashi.
