Moon in Shravana

Moon in Shravana is traditionally associated with learning. Some descriptions give that learning a religious setting, including engagement with scripture and accounts passed on through oral teaching.

Attending a reading, listening carefully and returning to the material for study is an illustration of this theme. The emphasis is on participating in learning. A person’s education, expertise and profession cannot be established by this placement alone.

Moon and Shravana

The Moon represents the mind and the experience of contentment in traditional Vedic readings. It brings attention to feelings and inner responses: how an experience is received, and whether it leaves a person at ease or unsettled.

Shravana (श्रवण) concerns hearing and the reception of knowledge. Its deity is Vishnu, whose three strides also give the nakshatra an imagery of paths and connection. Listening is a useful focus: information has to be received before it can guide action.

Position, padas and lord

Shravana’s sidereal span is 10°00′ Capricorn to 23°20′ Capricorn. Its four padas each cover 3°20′. Its Vimshottari lord is the Moon. Nakshatra lord, presiding deity and sign ruler are separate roles.

This entire nakshatra lies in Capricorn. Read the sign context in Moon in Capricorn.

The starting boundary is included; the ending boundary belongs to the next nakshatra. The exact degree also identifies the pada. See nakshatra and pada in Kundli for the distinction between the nakshatra lord, sign ruler and house lord.

Reading the whole chart

This guide concerns natal sidereal D1, with whole-sign houses counted from lagna.

These themes apply to the natal Moon. They must not be transferred to another graha merely because it occupies the same nakshatra.

The traditional reading qualifies the fuller expression of these themes by the Moon’s strength. The nakshatra placement alone does not establish that strength or an individual outcome.

Use the Moon reference for the graha’s wider meanings and chart conditions. The placement directory brings together its house, sign and nakshatra guides.

See the actual position, pada and house on the Kundli page.
