About Rohini
Rohini spans 10°00′–23°20′ of Taurus, ruled by the Moon — which is exalted in this sign — and presided by Brahma the creator. Symbolised by an ox-cart laden with goods, it is the nakshatra of fertility, growth and material abundance. It is widely regarded as the Moon's favourite star.
Personality
Rohini natives are magnetic, sensuous and creative, blessed with charm that draws people effortlessly. Grounded in Taurus and nourished by the exalted Moon, they love beauty, comfort and the good things of life, and they have a gift for making things grow — relationships, gardens, businesses, art. Their warmth conceals a fixed, sometimes obstinate will and a streak of possessiveness.
Traits
Rohini's fertile, aesthetic energy suits the arts, music, fashion, design, agriculture, horticulture, hospitality and luxury goods. The Moon's nurturing quality draws natives to dealing in food, real estate, beauty and anything that grows or pleases the senses. They prosper in fields where charm and creativity translate into tangible abundance.
Romance is central to Rohini's life — they are deeply affectionate, sensual and devoted, lavishing love and beauty on their partner. They form intense bonds and can be possessive, needing reassurance and physical closeness. With a faithful, attentive partner they are among the most loyal and giving lovers of the zodiac.
