Rohini nakshatra traits

The Moon's favourite mansion, Rohini is lush and magnetic. Natives are attractive, artistic and drawn to comfort and abundance.

Dasha at birth

If your Moon is in Rohini, your life begins in the Moon dasha, a 10-year period; how much of it remains at birth depends on how far through Rohini the Moon had travelled.

Rohini in the Panchang

When the Moon passes through Rohini, the day takes on a fixed quality, traditionally good for home, laying foundations and long-term work. See today's nakshatra in the Panchang.
