Purva Ashadha in a birth chart
Your birth nakshatra (janma nakshatra) is the one the Moon was in when you were born. With Purva Ashadha, the Moon is in Sagittarius (Dhanu), and Venus rules the first dasha of your life in the Vimshottari system, which is why your Mahadasha sequence starts with Venus. In Kundli matching, its Manushya gana, Monkey yoni and Madhya nadi count for 18 of the 36 points.
