As I type, Moon is passing through the fifteenth Nakshatra Swati, a fixed constellation in the sign of Libra. Moon takes 2.5 days to travel through each of the 27 Nakshatras in a 30 day period. Swati represents creating your own path in life. Making a name for yourself and thriving on your independence and individuality. Ruled by Rahu, Swati brings a transformative and obsessive quality to the creative sign of Libra. When positively placed, Libra Moon is creative and heavily focused on their goals to succeed through their own creation. This does not have to be a tangible creation but rather one of a persona. Many successful actors/performers have Libra Moon in Swati. They are able to pave their way using their own creations and creativity.
When looking at the quality of your Moon, note the sign and house where it is posited. Is the Moon exalted in Taurus or debilitated in Scorpio? Does it have full directional strength in the 2nd house or is it lost in the 10th? Moon rules Cancer; what house is Cancer ruling in your chart? That house will influence your Moon in a big way. You can apply all of these steps to any divisional chart as well. When you order a natal report from lunarpersuasion.com you will be able to see all of your divisional charts. Each one represents a section of your life such as marriage, spirituality, career and children. Using simple interpretive techniques and time cycles allows insight into the natives entire life and soul's purpose through dharma and karma. Comparing the strength of the planets in each chart will give a much deeper understanding of the original Lagna chart.
Time cycles in Vedic Astrology are called Mahadashas. Each planet rules it's own dasha period and all of them combined totals 120 years which equals a lifetime. The ruler of your Moon Nakshatra in your birth chart decided where your life will begin on the dasha cycle. If your Libra Moon is in Swati then you will start with Rahu time period. Rahu Mahadasha lasts for 18 years. Your birth date will determine where along the time period you will begin. You may be born with all 18 years to go or just 2 years. The next dasha is Jupiter followed by Saturn then Ketu, Mercury, Venus, Sun, Moon and Mars. The Full Natal Report offered at lunarpersuasion.com will have your entire Mahadasha cycle. This is a crucial tool when analyzing a chart for timing of events. Using the dasha combined with the divisional charts is a powerful way to get a deeper understanding of yourself and your natal chart.
