If your Moon is in Rohini

Your birth nakshatra decides where the Vimshottari cycle starts for you. With the Moon in Rohini, life opens in a Chandra mahadasha — 10 years of an emotional season where the heart quietly sets the pace.

You are rarely born at the very beginning of it. The Moon’s exact position inside Rohini decides how much of that 10-year period was already spent before you arrived, which is why two people with the same nakshatra can still change chapters years apart. How the 120-year cycle works →
