What Rohini means in Vedic astrology

Rohini is the 4th of the 27 Nakshatra — the lunar mansions that divide the sidereal zodiac into finer bands than the twelve Rāsi. It spans Taurus 10°–23°20′, is ruled by Moon, and is presided over by the deity Brahma.

Its symbol is the ox cart, and it belongs to the Manushya gana. Your Nakshatra is determined by the exact degree of the Moon at your birth, which makes it far more specific than your moon sign alone — and it is what drives your Vimshottari Dasha, the timing system at the heart of Jyotish prediction.
