About Mithuna rashi

How the monthly rashifal is made
Each day is rated by the house the Moon occupies counted from Mithuna (Chandra gochara), the same rule as the daily rashifal, and days with the Moon in the 8th (Chandrashtama) are marked as days to go slowly. Surya, Mangal, Budh and Shukra are read by the house they transit from your sign, using the classical list of favourable houses for each planet, with the exact time any of them changes sign or turns retrograde. Shani, Guru and Rahu give the slower background, including Sade Sati and Dhaiya.
Is Mithuna my rashi?
