Moon in Virgo

Results given by the Moon in the sign of Virgo

Virgo is a feminine sign symbolised by a maiden, and such people usually possess an attractive appearance and fine features; they radiate harmlessness; but in their behaviour they may be nervous, absent-minded and too demanding. Usually they have a tender body, attractive eyes and a decorous, reserved mind. According to the Brihat Jataka such people are «skilled in music, dancing and the study of the sacred scriptures; they are virtuous and intelligent; they are strongly attached to sexual relations. They make use of the houses and property of other people; their speech is pleasant; they usually have more daughters than sons; they yearn for distant places».

A person with the Moon in the sign of Virgo is not attached to family and domestic life and feels a need to be in his own company. They are shy, carry themselves with dignity, are skilful, engage in occultism, and are sceptical. They are nervous, sometimes cool in their attitude to the other sex. Usually such people are slender and of medium height. In brief let us note that these people can deal with facts, figures and philosophy and can help with their knowledge those who possess lesser abilities than they do.» (Tom Hopke)

When the Moon, the sign in which it is placed, and its ruler are strong, then the results indicated above are realised in full.

Commentary: B. S. Rao gives the following explanations. This interpretation applies in full in those cases where the Moon, the house in which it is placed, and the planet that rules it are all strong. If only two of these three factors are strong, the characteristics indicated will manifest only partly. If only one of these factors is strong, only traces of these influences will be noticeable. Finally, if all of them are weak, then we shall not notice any coincidence with the interpretations given, even to a small degree. (Varahamihira — «Brihat Jataka», 17.13)

RESULTS OF THE PLACEMENT OF CHANDRA IN KANYA

If Chandra is placed in Kanya, then the person will flirt with women and enjoy sporting contests, will be of good character, the father of daughters, will love festivities, will perform auspicious deeds and will be fortunate.

Commentary: The Rashi [sign] in which Chandra [the Moon] is placed at the time of birth is called «Chandra-Lagna’ (Chandra as the Lagna). In Hora Shastra [predictive astrology] the Chandra-Lagna is just as important as the Lagna; its analysis is very important for understanding a person's inner personality. If the Chandra-Rashi (Chandra-Lagna) is stronger than the Rashi of the Lagna, then most of the events of life will be determined precisely by it (that is, by the Chandra-Rashi). Since Chandra is the Karaka [indicator] of the mind, the soul and the heart, the qualities of the Rashi and the qualities of the ruler of the Rashi in which Chandra is placed will definitely be present in the person's mind in the form of emotions; this is represented by the character and qualities of the Chandra-Rashi and of the ruler of the Chandra-Rashi.
