Aaj ka Mithun Rashifal · Gemini Moon sign · Sunday 14 February 2027

Mithun Rashifal for 14 Feb: Work, Love and Health

Aaj ka Mithun rashifal, read from your Moon sign. Mithun (मिथुन) is the 3rd rashi, 60° to 90° of the sidereal zodiac, ruled by Mercury, and it holds Mrigashira padas 3 and 4, all four padas of Ardra and Punarvasu padas 1 to 3. In English it is called Gemini, 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 Mithun and the classical verse behind it.

1 of the 9 planets supports · 8 need attention

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

Venus in Dhanu, your 7th (marriage and partnership), until 24 Feb, 4:46 AM: classically not a favourable house, but with Jupiter in your 2nd the texts reverse it (reverse vedha), so the texts count it supportive; classical reading: strain in relationships.

The Moon in Vrishabh, your 12th (expenses, foreign lands and moksha), until Tuesday 16 Feb, 4:05 AM: classically not a favourable house, but Vrishabh is its exaltation sign, where the texts say it does not work against you; classical reading: spending and rest.

The Sun in Kumbh, your 9th (fortune, dharma and father), until 14 Mar, 9:30 PM (EDT): classically not a favourable house, but with Mars in your 3rd the texts reverse it (reverse vedha), and the Sun is in Kumbh, whose lord Saturn is not its natural friend, so its support is muted; classical reading: obstacles and a tired mind.

Mars in Singh, your 3rd (courage and siblings), until 9 Mar, 1:43 PM: classically a favourable house, but the Moon in your 12th holds it back (vedha), so its support is held back; classical reading: success, gains and cheer.

Mercury in Kumbh, your 9th, until 23 Feb, 6:10 PM: classically not a favourable house; classical reading: slow progress in work.

Jupiter in Kark, your 2nd (family, wealth and speech), until 25 Jun, 7:49 PM (EDT): classically a favourable house, but the Moon in your 12th holds it back (vedha), so its support is held back; classical reading: money and family joy.

Saturn in Meen, your 10th (career and karma), until 2 Jun, 7:58 PM (EDT): classically not a favourable house; classical reading: standing at work.

Rahu in Makar, your 8th (research and hidden matters), until 24 May 2028, 5:38 AM (EDT): classically not a favourable house; classical reading: needless risk.

Ketu in Kark, your 2nd, until 24 May 2028, 5:38 AM (EDT): classically not a favourable house.

The day changes at 12:58 AM, when the Moon moves into Vrishabh; both parts are shown.

Work, Love and Health

Work and Money?

Work and Money: the Moon, Saturn, Mars, Jupiter and Ketu need attention.

The Moon in Vrishabh, your 12th (expenses, foreign lands and moksha), until Tuesday 16 Feb, 4:05 AM: classically not favourable for spending, but Vrishabh is its exaltation sign, where the texts say it does not work against you.

Saturn in Meen, your 10th (career and karma), until 2 Jun, 7:58 PM (EDT): classically not favourable for standing at work.

Mars in Singh, your 3rd (courage and siblings), until 9 Mar, 1:43 PM: classically favourable for success and gains, but the Moon in your 12th holds it back (vedha), so its support is held back.

Jupiter in Kark, your 2nd (family, wealth and speech), until 25 Jun, 7:49 PM (EDT): classically favourable for money, but the Moon in your 12th holds it back (vedha), so its support is held back.

Ketu in Kark, your 2nd (family, wealth and speech), until 24 May 2028, 5:38 AM (EDT): classically not a favourable house; the texts name no separate result of it for work and money.

Love and Family?

Love and Family: Venus supports; Jupiter and Ketu need attention.

Venus in Dhanu, your 7th (marriage and partnership), until 24 Feb, 4:46 AM: classically not favourable for relationships, but with Jupiter in your 2nd the texts reverse it (reverse vedha), so the texts count it supportive.

Jupiter in Kark, your 2nd (family, wealth and speech), until 25 Jun, 7:49 PM (EDT): classically favourable for family joy, but the Moon in your 12th holds it back (vedha), so its support is held back.

Ketu in Kark, your 2nd (family, wealth and speech), until 24 May 2028, 5:38 AM (EDT): classically not a favourable house; the texts name no separate result of it for love and family.

Health?

No graha is in your 1st or 6th on 14 Feb, so the texts point to nothing particular for health.

Sade Sati and Shani Dhaiya for Mithun: 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.

No Sade Sati or dhaiya for Mithun now: Saturn is in Meen, your 10th, until 2 Jun 2027. The next, Sade Sati, runs from 8 Aug 2029 to 27 Aug 2036.

The next Sade Sati for Mithun begins on 8 Aug 2029 and ends with Saturn's final exit on 27 Aug 2036, 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.

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

Mithun Rashi Questions

Who is the lord (swami) of Mithun rashi?

Mercury, the lord of Mithun, is in Kumbh on 14 Feb, the 9th house from Mithun, until 23 Feb, 6:10 PM. Mercury rules Mithun in every classical text we read: Brihat Jataka 1.6, Saravali 3.11 and Phaladeepika 1.6. Mercury also rules Kanya.

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

On 14 Feb, the Moon is in Vrishabh; its next stay in Mithun runs from Tuesday 16 Feb, 4:05 AM to Thursday 18 Feb, 5:13 AM: a child born in those hours has Mithun as janma rashi. Mithun's nine name syllables, one for each nakshatra pada, are Ka, Ki (Mrigashira 3–4); Ku, Gha, Ng, Chha (Ardra 1–4); Ke, Ko, Ha (Punarvasu 1–3). A name starting with one of them gives Mithun as the name rashi, which matches the janma rashi only when the name was chosen from the birth nakshatra.

Which nakshatras are in Mithun rashi?

On 14 Feb, the Moon is in Krittika; its next pass through Mithun begins in Mrigashira pada 3, from Tuesday 16 Feb, 4:05 AM. Mithun covers 60° to 90° of the sidereal zodiac: Mrigashira padas 3 and 4, all four padas of Ardra and Punarvasu 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 Mithun, your birth nakshatra is one of these.

What are Mithun rashi people like?

They are described as sharp-minded and witty, with pleasant, clear speech and a love of music and the arts; the texts also give them a prominent nose. These are the points that at least two of Brihat Jataka 17.3, Saravali 23.16 and Hora Sara 29.3 share. Brihat Jataka 17.13 adds that this picture holds in full only when the Moon, Mithun 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 Mithun rashi?

Neither Sade Sati nor dhaiya is running for Mithun on 14 Feb: Saturn is in Meen, the 10th house from Mithun. The next Sade Sati for Mithun begins on 8 Aug 2029 and ends with Saturn's final exit on 27 Aug 2036, 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 Mithun rashi?

Saturn moves into Mesh on 2 Jun, 7:58 PM (EDT), the 11th house from Mithun; Jupiter moves into Singh on 25 Jun, 7:49 PM (EDT), the 3rd house from Mithun; Rahu moves into Dhanu and Ketu into Mithun on 24 May 2028, 5:38 AM (EDT), the 7th and 1st houses from Mithun (true node; by the mean node many almanacs print, on 23 Jun 2028). Saturn, Jupiter and Rahu–Ketu stay in a sign for many months, so their changes set the background for Mithun, 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 Mithun rashi in English?

On 14 Feb, at 12:29 PM, the Sun is in Aquarius 25°47′ by the tropical zodiac that birthday signs use, but in Kumbh 1°33′ by the sidereal zodiac of Vedic astrology. Mithun is called Gemini 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 Gemini need not have Mithun rashi.

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.
Exalted (uchcha)
The sign where a graha is strongest (BPHS ch. 3).
Unfriendly sign

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).
Points that call for patience
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.
