It sets the tone for your entire Kundli — how others see you, your life direction, and physical health.
Step 4: Read Planetary Positions (5 min)
Check which planets are placed in which houses and signs. Here’s how:

If Venus is in the 7th house in Libra, you may attract loving, artistic partners and value balanced relationships.

Your Moon sign (Rashi) reveals your emotional nature.
Your Nakshatra gives deeper insight into:
Personality traits
Life purpose
Past-life karma
Example:

Strong Jupiter? Lucky and wise
Saturn in 10th house? Long-term career success
