Rashi Calculator: Find Your Moon Sign
Enter your date, time and place of birth to find your Vedic Rashi (Moon sign), your birth Nakshatra and your sidereal Sun sign.
How Nakshatra-based baby names work
In Vedic tradition, the Moon’s position at the moment of birth falls in one of 27 Nakshatras (lunar mansions). Each Nakshatra is divided into four quarters (padas), and each pada has a traditional starting syllable. Families often choose a name beginning with the syllable of the baby’s birth pada.
Starting syllables for the first four Nakshatras (one per pada)
| Nakshatra | Syllables by pada |
|---|---|
| 1 | A I J Q Y |
| 2 | B K R |
| 3 | C G L S |
| 4 | D M T |
| 5 | E H N X |
| 6 | U V W |

Chaldean letter chart
The Chaldean chart gives each letter a value from 1 to 8. No letter is given 9, which this tradition treats as special, though a total can still reduce to 9.
Chaldean numerology letter values
Worked example: Ravi Kumar
- Chaldean: RAVI = 2+1+6+1 = 10; KUMAR = 2+6+4+1+2 = 15; compound 25; name number 7.
- Pythagorean: RAVI = 9+1+4+9 = 23; KUMAR = 2+3+4+1+9 = 19; total 42; name number 6.

Tradition and evidence
What is established: the method and the arithmetic. Anyone using the same inputs and rules gets the same result.
What is belief: that the result describes a person or predicts events. Scientific studies have not found that numerology predicts personality, compatibility or outcomes. Use the meanings for reflection and cultural interest, not for health, money, legal or relationship decisions.
