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

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.

Tula Rashifal for 15 Jul: Work, Love and Health

Aaj ka Tula rashifal, read from your Moon sign. Tula (तुला) is the 7th rashi, 180° to 210° of the sidereal zodiac, ruled by Venus, and it holds Chitra padas 3 and 4, all four padas of Swati and Vishakha padas 1 to 3. In English it is called Libra, 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 Tula and the classical verse behind it.

2 of the 9 planets support · 7 need attention

Sade Sati and Shani Dhaiya for Tula: 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 Tula now: Saturn is in Meen, your 6th, until 2 Jun 2027. The next, dhaiya (8th), runs from 8 Aug 2029 to 30 May 2032.

The next dhaiya (ashtama, Saturn in the 8th) for Tula 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.

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

Tula Rashi Questions

Who is the lord (swami) of Tula rashi?

Venus, the lord of Tula, is in Singh on 15 Jul, the 11th house from Tula, until 31 Jul, 11:58 PM. Venus rules Tula in every classical text we read: Brihat Jataka 1.6, Saravali 3.11 and Phaladeepika 1.6. Venus also rules Vrishabh.

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

On 15 Jul, the Moon is in Kark; its next stay in Tula runs from Monday 20 Jul, 10:25 PM to 23 Jul, 9:31 AM: a child born in those hours has Tula as janma rashi. Tula's nine name syllables, one for each nakshatra pada, are Ra, Ri (Chitra 3–4); Ru, Re, Ro, Ta (Swati 1–4); Ti, Tu, Te (Vishakha 1–3). A name starting with one of them gives Tula as the name rashi, which matches the janma rashi only when the name was chosen from the birth nakshatra.

Which nakshatras are in Tula rashi?

On 15 Jul, the Moon is in Pushya; its next pass through Tula begins in Chitra pada 3, from Monday 20 Jul, 10:25 PM. Tula covers 180° to 210° of the sidereal zodiac: Chitra padas 3 and 4, all four padas of Swati and Vishakha 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 Tula, your birth nakshatra is one of these.

What are Tula rashi people like?

They are described as respectful of the divine and of learned people, skilled in trade and in their work, wise, and helpful to their relatives; the texts give them a lean build and a prominent nose. These are the points that at least two of Brihat Jataka 17.7, Saravali 23.44 and Hora Sara 29.7 share. Brihat Jataka 17.13 adds that this picture holds in full only when the Moon, Tula and its lord Venus 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 Tula rashi?

Neither Sade Sati nor dhaiya is running for Tula on 15 Jul: Saturn is in Meen, the 6th house from Tula. The next dhaiya (ashtama, Saturn in the 8th) for Tula 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 Tula rashi?

Jupiter moves into Singh on 31 Oct, 2:33 AM, the 11th house from Tula; Rahu moves into Makar and Ketu into Kark on 25 Nov, 7:16 AM (EST), the 4th and 10th houses from Tula (true node; by the mean node many almanacs print, on 5 Dec); Saturn moves into Mesh on 2 Jun 2027, 7:58 PM, the 7th house from Tula. Saturn, Jupiter and Rahu–Ketu stay in a sign for many months, so their changes set the background for Tula, 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 Tula rashi in English?

On 15 Jul, at 12:50 PM, the Sun is in Cancer 23°13′ by the tropical zodiac that birthday signs use, but in Mithun 29°00′ by the sidereal zodiac of Vedic astrology. Tula is called Libra 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 Libra need not have Tula rashi.

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).

Tarabala

Direct (margi)
The graha moves forward again after a retrograde spell.
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.
