Kumbh Rashi
Aquarius — the Vedic moon sign, not the Western sun sign.
Saturn's own sign. Read as independent-minded, more comfortable outside the mainstream than in it, and drawn to groups and causes over one-to-one closeness.
| Ruling planet (rashi swami) | Saturn |
| Element (tattva) | Air (per BPHS (vāyu/air); a few modern sources give ākāśa (space) instead — sources don't fully agree here) |
| Nature | Sthira (fixed) |
| Classical gender | Male (odd) |
| Planetary dignity | no planet is classically exalted or debilitated in this sign |
Every rashi spans exactly 9 nakshatra padas — Kumbh covers these three nakshatras:
| Dhanishtha | padas 3–4 | 300°00′–306°40′ into the sign |
| Shatabhisha | padas 1–4 | 306°40′–320°00′ into the sign |
| Purva Bhadrapada | padas 1–3 | 320°00′–330°00′ into the sign |
Kumbh isn't a calendar date range. Your rashi is whichever sign the Moon was
in when you were born — not the Sun, and not the Western tropical dates you may have seen elsewhere
(those use a different starting point and a different planet entirely). The gap between the two systems
is currently around 24°, which is why a Vedic Kumbh and a Western Aquarius rarely line up. Your own
chart will show your real rashi from your actual birth details.

This page describes the sign in general, classical terms — the same description applies to roughly a twelfth of everyone born. It says nothing about you personally; only a real chart, built from your own birth details, can do that.
