Frequently asked questions
Is this horoscope based on Moon sign or Sun sign?
It is based on your Moon sign (Chandra rashi), the sign the Moon occupied at your birth, as in classical Vedic gochara. If you only know your Western Sun sign, check your Moon sign from your birth chart first, because the two are often different.
What are the main planetary changes in December 2026?
Mercury enters Scorpio (Vrishchika) on 2 December and Sagittarius (Dhanu) on 22 December. Saturn turns direct in Pisces (Meena) on 11 December, Jupiter turns retrograde in Leo (Simha) on 13 December, and the Sun enters Sagittarius on 16 December. Venus stays in Libra and Mars in Leo all month.
When does Kharmas begin in December 2026?
Kharmas (Dhanurmas) begins with Dhanu Sankranti, when the Sun enters Sagittarius on 16 December 2026 at about 10:30 AM IST. By tradition, weddings and similar ceremonies are not held from then until Makar Sankranti in January.
How is the month tone worked out?
Each of the seven grahas from the Sun to Saturn is checked every day against its classical favourable houses counted from your Moon sign. The share of favourable placements gives the support index out of 100. It describes the general weather of the month, not a personal event forecast; your full birth chart and running dasha matter more.
