They believe that fate has brought them together, and not the positions of the Sun or the Moon at their time of birth. In western countries, most people may not even consider matching their horoscopes before getting married. If you consider the actual facts, these practices are followed only in India. Like for example, some people may not believe in the tradition of matching horoscopes before getting married to each other. However, the question which needs to be answered is that do these aspects actually help in deciding the important prospects in a person’s life? There are many people who may not believe in these concepts. Well, we definitely cannot challenge the ancient astrological literature. Can Lagna and Rasi really make a difference? Rashi controls our reactions to situations and circumstances in life. Whereas, if we talk about rashi, it depicts the mind and soul. It is also considered to determine parenthood, success in business, before making investments and so on. This is because lagna will help us determine the success chances of married life, the relationship with the partner etc. For example, lagna is read specifically before marriages. They help to determine if the events are going to be successful or a failure. Lagna of a person is read before all the major events in life. The major difference between lagna and rashi is that lagna signifies to a person’s entire body whereas Rashi is the depiction of their soul and mind. *Pisces Difference between Lagna and Rashi: The Rashi of a person could be either of the following: We can say that the personality traits of a person is determined by the rashi.Įxample: If a person has Meena Rashi at the time of birth, then their moon sign is Pisces since it represents Fish or Meena. The Rashi or the moon sign signifies what will be the behavior of the person and how they will react to the actions in their life. Rashi, which is also known as ‘moon sign’ is the position of the moon at the time of your birth. In short, the moon sign determines the overall personality traits of a person. The action and behavior of a person are determined by the position of the moon at the time of their birth. In short, Rashi is also called the moon sign. Rashi is determined by the position of the moon at the time of birth. That is why many people have common sun signs and moon signs but it is very least likely for them to have the same lagna or ascendant. On the other hand, the Sun remains on the horoscope for the whole one month whereas the moon remains there for two and a half days. This means the ascendant at the time of the birth of a person remains only for two hours. It is considered as one of the most important aspects in major events of a person’s life. Lagna can be better described as the very first moment of contact between the soul and its new life on the earth. That is why a person’s entire birth chart is based on the Lagna period. Lagna and nakshatra is the exact position of the sun and the formation of the stars in the eastern horizon at the time of your birth. Let’s dig deep into the subject to get a better understanding of how exactly Lagna and Rashi are different from each other and how do they influence a person’s life: What is Lagna? This means that the moon sign will determine how a person behaves in his life and what his personality will be like. In a person’s life, Lagna is basically considered while making any major decision in life like choosing a life partner, starting a new business or job. Laga ad Rashi both are influential factors in a person's life. The 1st house is considered as Lagna and the Rashi is the sign-in in which the moon is situated. If we study thoroughly, there are 12 houses as suggested in Vedic astrology. They consider them as one and therefore, do not read both of them during horoscope reading. But most people do not take Lagna and Rashi as two different terms. Their importance especially increases when they are considered before auspicious occasions such as marriage or starting a new business. Lagna and Rashi, both hold a great significance in astrology.
