Vrishabh Rashifal for 20 Jul: Work, Love and Health

Aaj ka Vrishabh rashifal, read from your Moon sign.

Sade Sati and Shani Dhaiya for Vrishabh: 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 Vrishabh: Saturn is in Mesh, your 12th, from 23 Feb 2028 to 8 Aug 2029. The whole Sade Sati runs from 2 Jun 2027 to 12 Jul 2034, with a pause from 19 Oct 2027 to 23 Feb 2028. Traditionally this passage is a time for 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 Mesh: from 2 May 2029 to 8 Aug 2029.

  • 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 (4th house) for Vrishabh runs from 27 Aug 2036 to 12 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.

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

Vrishabh Rashi Questions

Who is the lord (swami) of Vrishabh rashi?

Venus, the lord of Vrishabh, is in Vrishabh on 20 Jul, the 1st house, Vrishabh itself, until 1 Aug, 3:03 AM. Venus rules Vrishabh in every classical text we read: Brihat Jataka 1.6, Saravali 3.11 and Phaladeepika 1.6. Venus also rules Tula.

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

On 20 Jul, the Moon is in Mithun; its next stay in Vrishabh runs from 13 Aug, 1:31 PM to 15 Aug, 8:47 PM: a child born in those hours has Vrishabh as janma rashi. Vrishabh's nine name syllables, one for each nakshatra pada, are I, U, E (Krittika 2–4); O, Va, Vi, Vu (Rohini 1–4); Ve, Vo (Mrigashira 1–2). A name starting with one of them gives Vrishabh as the name rashi, which matches the janma rashi only when the name was chosen from the birth nakshatra.

Which nakshatras are in Vrishabh rashi?

On 20 Jul, the Moon is in Ardra; its next pass through Vrishabh begins in Krittika pada 2, from 13 Aug, 1:31 PM. Vrishabh covers 30° to 60° of the sidereal zodiac: Krittika padas 2 to 4, all four padas of Rohini and Mrigashira 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 Vrishabh, your birth nakshatra is one of these.

What are Vrishabh rashi people like?

They are described as generous, forgiving and patient, graceful in bearing, and wise enough to tell right from wrong. All three texts call the middle and later years of life the happier ones. These are the points that at least two of Brihat Jataka 17.2, Saravali 23.8 and Hora Sara 29.2 share. Brihat Jataka 17.13 adds that this picture holds in full only when the Moon, Vrishabh 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 Vrishabh rashi?

Sade Sati is running for Vrishabh on 20 Jul, in its first phase: Saturn is in Mesh, the 12th house from Vrishabh. It began on 2 Jun 2027 and ends with Saturn's final exit on 12 Jul 2034, with Saturn stepping out of it from 19 Oct 2027 to 23 Feb. The next dhaiya (4th house) for Vrishabh runs from 27 Aug 2036 to 12 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 Vrishabh rashi?

Jupiter moves into Kanya on Monday 24 Jul, 6:07 AM, the 5th house from Vrishabh; Saturn moves into Vrishabh itself on 8 Aug 2029, 3:02 AM; Rahu moves into Vrishchik and Ketu into Vrishabh on 4 Feb 2030, 2:38 AM (EST), the 7th and 1st houses from Vrishabh (true node; by the mean node many almanacs print, on 10 Jan 2030). Saturn, Jupiter and Rahu–Ketu stay in a sign for many months, so their changes set the background for Vrishabh, 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 Vrishabh rashi in English?

On 20 Jul, at 12:00 PM, the Sun is in Cancer 28°27′ by the tropical zodiac that birthday signs use, but in Kark 4°11′ by the sidereal zodiac of Vedic astrology. Vrishabh is called Taurus 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 Taurus need not have Vrishabh rashi.
