About Dhanu rashi
A Dhanu Moon is optimistic, frank and idealistic. You need meaning, freedom and room to explore, enjoy learning and travel, and lift others with your enthusiasm, though tact is not always your strength.

How this rashifal is made
The reading comes from the house the Moon occupies counted from Dhanu (Chandra gochara), worked out for the date and city above. The Moon spends two to two and a half days in each sign, so the reading changes every couple of days; if it changes sign during the day the page shows the time. Shani, Guru and Rahu give the slower background, including Sade Sati and Dhaiya.
Is Dhanu my rashi?
Your rashi is your Moon sign at birth in the sidereal zodiac, not the Western Sun sign. Check it with the nakshatra finder, or open My Day for a reading against your whole chart. Names for this sign: Dhanu baby names.
