Your Moon will be at certain degrees in some rashi hence in some nakshatra, say of Ketu, Venus, Sun, Moon, Mars, Rahu, Jupiter, Saturn or Mercury (one of these nine !

Moon Sign, Lagna and the Sun Sign can be different

Your Moon"sign is your rashi as distinguished from your lagna! #f a specific $uestion is put to you, tell me your lagna, the Moon"sign and the Sun"sign, you now know that they are three different points in your horoscope to be made use of for predictions!

Spiritual Gualities of Planets

#ndia which is the land of the origin of four of the se&en world religions, 2induism, -uddhism, Jainism and Sikhism and has the most efficacious and numerous sadhanas (spiritual practices , has also gi&en to the world the yoga system which is popular all o&er the world! Very few astrologers know that 2indu astrology is the most de&eloped spiritual astrology which is somehow, till now, kept as a great secret with the saints of #ndia! Yet in some books of astrology, which is a different branch of astrology than the one being discussed here, there are many more hints about the spiritual side of human personality! )et r rely #eo#le in %ndi go to strologer to sk =uestions bout their s#iritu l li&e &or 0ery e;"ellent re son$ The #eo#le o& %ndi h 0e the su#re!e d0 nt ge o& le rning their s#iritu l lessons( &irst t ho!e &ro! the elders in "hildhood( l ter they seek the guid n"e o& so!e s#iritu l #erson( s ints( yogis( gurus nd other holy #ersons$ Then they h 0e the su#re!e d0 nt ge o& re ding su"h r re s#iritu l liter tures( in the 3 ! y n( the - h bh r t nd the 8ur n s th t they get !ost o& the nswers to their s#iritu l =uestions &ro! these books$ -y e;#erien"e in 5$,$A$ nd with #eo#le &ro! the west "o!ing to "onsult !e in %ndi h s been th t they seek nswers whi"h re so!eti!es =uite ti"klish be" use they h 0e got interested in s#iritu l #r "ti"es nd( h 0e r rely been in so d0 nt geous #osition s %ndi ns h 0e o& getting s#iritu l guid n"e &or! so ! ny sour"es nd so ! ny #ersons$ To &ul&ill th t need in dis"ussing the n ture o& #l nets it be"o!es ne"ess ry to st rt with the s#iritu l =u lities o& #l nets$ .h t is being listed below is not e;h usti0e but is sound enough &or #r "ti" l use by strologer nd lo0ers o& strology$ An e-haustive list has been added to the book at the end. .h t s#iritu l =u lities e "h #l net 6the nine we re using7 re#resents is being gi0en brie&ly$
