Reading Rohini

Rohini — presided by Brahma, symbol "Chariot", ruled by Moon. The temperament is a manushya (human) temperament — balanced, ambitious and pragmatic with a Kapha (earthy) constitution — steady, patient and nurturing, and a secretive and penetrating instinct (Serpent yoni). The Moon lordship lends mind, emotions, mother, nourishment, public and inner contentment. Energies here favour fixed/permanent works (foundations, long-term commitments).
