Vrishchika Rashi Meaning
Vrishchika rashi (Scorpio) spans 210° to 240° of the sidereal zodiac. Its symbol is the scorpion, its ruling planet is Mars (Mangal), and it is a water sign. It covers the last pada of Vishakha, Anuradha and Jyeshtha. In panchang, the Moon's rashi gives the daily Chandra rashi, and the Sun's entry into Vrishchika is Vrishchika Sankranti.
In Simple Terms
Vrishchika Rashi is Scorpio, the 8th sign of the sidereal zodiac. Its exact use depends on the wider panchang context: tithi, nakshatra, yoga, karana, vaara, and local sunrise.
