The Stars of Vrishabh, with the Moon and Planets on 23 Oct
At 12:00 PM, the Moon is in Kumbh, outside this map; its next stay in Vrishabh runs from Tuesday 27 Oct, 9:07 PM to Thursday 29 Oct, 10:07 PM.
Vrishabh as the 1st House: Where All Nine Grahas Are on 23 Oct
Every house is counted from Vrishabh, so this chart is Vrishabh'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.
Vrishabh on 23 Oct: the Moon is in your 10th until 3:04 PM, classically supportive, but it shares Kumbh with Rahu, so its support is muted.

Star positions are worked out for the hour from the catalogue (proper motion, parallax and aberration), in the same sidereal frame as the planets, with Lahiri ayanamsa. For the 36 stars compared, Swiss Ephemeris's own star file agrees within 2.4 arc-seconds. 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. The figure lines are our own; each yogatara is given by at least two of the sources listed above.

Vrishabh Rashifal for 23 Oct: Work, Love and Health
Aaj ka Vrishabh rashifal, read from your Moon sign. Vrishabh (वृषभ) is the 2nd rashi, 30° to 60° of the sidereal zodiac, ruled by Venus, and it holds Krittika padas 2 to 4, all four padas of Rohini and Mrigashira padas 1 and 2. In English it is called Taurus, 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 Vrishabh and the classical verse behind it.
Mixed?
Friday 23 October: the Moon is in Kumbh, the 10th sign from Vrishabh, until 3:04 PM (since Wednesday 21 Oct, 7:01 AM). Classically, the Moon in your 10th is supportive (success and ease), but it shares Kumbh with Rahu, so its support is muted.
- Moon · 10th from Vrishabh Muhurta Chintamani 4.1 · Phaladeepika 26.2 · Brihat Samhita 104.4
- Classical reading Brihat Samhita 104.8–10 · Muhurta Chintamani 4.1–4
- Moon with Rahu: support muted Muhurta Chintamani 4.7 · Brihat Samhita 104.56
Mixed. By our count for Vrishabh on 23 Oct, of the 9 grahas: supportive 2, mixed 5, asking for patience 2; the Moon leads the day.
The day changes at 3:04 PM, when the Moon moves into Meen; both parts are shown.
Work, Love and Health
- Work and Money?
Classically, Mercury in your 6th favours success and standing, while the Moon in your 10th favours success at work, but it shares Kumbh with Rahu, so its support is muted. Together they read as mixed.
- Mercury · 6th from Vrishabh Phaladeepika 26.2 · Brihat Samhita 104.4 · Muhurta Chintamani 4.1–3

- Love and Family?
Ketu in your 4th asks for patience; the texts name no result of it for love and family.
- Health?
Classically, the Sun in your 6th favours health picking up and worries easing, but the Sun is in Tula, its debilitation sign, so its support is muted.
- Sun · 6th from Vrishabh Phaladeepika 26.2 · Brihat Samhita 104.4 · Muhurta Chintamani 4.1–3
- Classical reading Phaladeepika 26.9–11 · Brihat Samhita 104.5–7

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 Tula on 23 Oct, the 6th house from Vrishabh, until 6 Nov, 1:04 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 23 Oct, the Moon is in Kumbh; its next stay in Vrishabh runs from Tuesday 27 Oct, 9:07 PM to Thursday 29 Oct, 10:07 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 23 Oct, the Moon is in Purva Bhadrapada; its next pass through Vrishabh begins in Krittika pada 2, from Tuesday 27 Oct, 9:07 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?
Neither Sade Sati nor dhaiya is running for Vrishabh on 23 Oct: Saturn is in Meen, the 11th house from Vrishabh. The next Sade Sati for Vrishabh begins on 3 Jun 2027 and ends with Saturn's final exit on 13 Jul 2034, with Saturn stepping out of it from 20 Oct 2027 to 23 Feb 2028. 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 Singh on 31 Oct, 12:03 PM, the 4th house from Vrishabh; Rahu moves into Makar and Ketu into Kark on 25 Nov, 5:46 PM, the 9th and 3rd houses from Vrishabh (true node; by the mean node many almanacs print, on 5 Dec); Saturn moves into Mesh on 3 Jun 2027, 5:28 AM, the 12th house from Vrishabh. 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 23 Oct, at 7:32 AM, the Sun is in Libra 29°41′ by the tropical zodiac that birthday signs use, but in Tula 5°27′ 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.

- Eased
- A transit in a house that asks for patience, eased because the graha is in its own or exaltation sign (Phaladeepika 26.31).
- A time for patience
- A transit in a house the texts count unfavourable: a time for steady effort and simple plans.
