Cancer in Vedic Astrology (Karka Rashi)

In Vedic astrology (Jyotish Shastra), Cancer is known as Karka Rashi (कर्क). While Western astrology determines your sign based on the Sun's position at birth, Vedic astrology uses the Moon's position — which is why your Vedic sign (Moon sign) may differ from your Western sign (Sun sign).

Karka is ruled by Moon (चंद्र) and belongs to the Water (जल) element. Key personality traits include being nurturing, intuitive, emotional, protective.

Our Cancer horoscope predictions are computed from real planetary transit data using the Lahiri Ayanamsa (sidereal zodiac). For the most accurate reading, we recommend knowing your Moon sign from a complete free Kundli analysis.
