New Delhi, India — 2026-10-25
A moon-sign (janma-rāśi) feed, and it says so. Verdicts follow Phaladeepika's transit table with vedha; timings are computed; the tradition layer is labeled and cited — never blended with the facts. No lucky colours, no percentages: no citable rule exists for them.

Traditional interpretation — Varāhamihira and the later compilations · Bṛhat Jātaka XVI, the birth-star qualities chapter, for temperament; Horā Sāra ch. 28 independently concurring; the fuller janma-nakṣatra phala as transmitted in the later compilations
Punarvasu means the return of light, and its deity is Aditi, the boundless mother of the gods; its Vimśottarī lord is Jupiter, whose daśā a birth here opens. Varāhamihira's line gives a devout, patient, good-natured and quiet temperament, living in comfort and pleased with little — and the same verse carries shadow clauses the gentler retellings drop: of wrong views, sickly, thirsty. Horā Sāra independently concurs down to the same triple — happy and liberal in giving, yet sick, suffering thirst, satisfied with a small income and little wise. Both classical lineages, that is, read this contented star as also ailing and intellectually modest; that is their reading of a type, transmitted conditionally, never a health verdict on anyone.
The later Mānasāgarī compilation drops every shadow clause and adds renown — the star's wholly benign modern portrait descends from that layer, and the seam is kept visible here. The chapters also condition their own results: Varāhamihira grants full effect only to a powerful Moon, Horā Sāra to benefic company — so the Moon's placement across Gemini and Cancer (the fourth pada is its own sign), the pada occupied, the aspects it receives and the opening Jupiter daśā decide what the return of light actually delivers, and the computed facts show which conditions apply.
Tradition, not fact
The tara cycle and the latta rules are TRADITION; the timings and positions are computed. The two are never blended.
Tara cycle: Kalaprakashika ch. XXXIII (the registered muhurta.tarabala three-cycle convention governs the Moon rows); latta: Phaladeepika XXVI.42-47 (study gochara-rashifal-2026-07-30.md). Extending the tara count to non-Moon grahas is MODERN PRACTICE with no classical chapter — those rows say practice: 'modern'.
Boundary times are root-found and residual-verified, never interpolated. Change the convention and these numbers change — which is why it is printed beside them.
