Jyotisha, Vedic, Indian or Hindu astrology: All these nomenclatures are used to name the Indian system of astrology. The objective is the same as for the Chinese or Western horoscope: To make predictions about the personality and clarify questions about self-knowledge. However, the differential of this astrology is that it takes into account the karma of the past and also the most current of people.

Signs in Vedic Astrology
Known for its accuracy and for considering the energy that comes from the Universe and not the earthly energy, Vedic astrology has been conquering scholars and astrology lovers around the world.
What is the difference between Indian and Western astrology?
The main difference between Indian and Western Astrology concerns the number of signs. This distinction is made because, although Eastern astrology also uses the 12-house division of stellar sets, it uses the sidereal system to orient itself. In this way, it is the stars that serve as a parameter. For this reason, if a person is ruled by the first sign in the system, he will not be ruled by the first Vedic sign.
Learn a little more about the 12 signs of the Indian horoscope, which starts with those born on April 14:
Mesha (04/14 to 05/13)
Originality, pioneering spirit and outstanding presence. This is how those ruled by the first horoscope sign are generally judged. They are communicative, determined and generous people. They are ruled by Mars, whose influence makes them, in addition to communicative, persuasive. They usually don't have patience for games, whether in romance or in life. The taste for adrenaline makes them like to commit some crazy things for love, and that's why they usually choose adventurous and dynamic people to love.
Vrishabha (5/14 to 6/16)
People of this sign tend to like security and their greatest motto is to conquer and maintain independence. For this reason, they do not like uncertainties and uncalculated risks. They usually value exciting music and movies and try exotic cuisine. In love, they don't like to feel like they have to compete for that person - or with their partner. Therefore, keeping people of this sign safe is the best option.
Mithuna (6/14 to 7/14)
Ruled by Mithuana, these people are cheerful, enthusiastic and sociable. The problem is that they have a strong temper, which makes it difficult for them to forgive when they feel ignored or isolated. Tend to develop certain illnesses from stress. They are ruled by Mercury and, as a result, are often skilled at various tasks - which can cause them to have several hobbies or change careers throughout their lives.
Karkataka (7/15 to 8/15)
People who love being in contact with nature, especially the sea. This is due to the Moon, the star that governs them. They are also romantic and dreamy people, as well as extremely faithful. Consequently, they do not tolerate betrayals and are usually resentful if it happens. They preach for equality and empathy for being extremely sensitive, fair and ethical.
Shimha (16/08 to 15/09)
They tend to value luxury and financial stability. They are great leaders, commanders and governors, due to their persistence and determination to achieve their goals. They are governed by the Sun, for this reason, they radiate energy and courage, becoming outstanding for these characteristics.
Kanya (9/16 to 10/15)
Ruled by Mercury, this sign can be compared, in the western horoscope, with Libras: a sign composed of diplomatic people, with difficulty in making decisions (whether easy or difficult), they are confident people and tend to be non-monogamous, because they are curious to meet different people - and are easily enchanted by they. They tend to be sensual and creative, especially between 4 walls.
Thula (10/16 to 11/14)
Kind, intuitive and righteous: This triad easily characterizes those born under Thula. They tend to be revolutionaries and the front line of social movements. To do this, they need to ignore many opinions – and they do it without much effort. Ruled by Venus, they tend to be fickle in love, always betting on 8 or 80: Either they are very much in love, or completely uninterested.
Vrishkha (11/15 to 12/14)
Shyness is the most striking feature. They hate stealing the spotlight for themselves, although they are self-confident and like to take risks. They tend to be controlling in love and in relationships with the closest people, and they need to control themselves so as not to be jealous and aggressive.
Dhanus (12/15 to 1/14)
Dhanus sign people tend to be optimistic and radiate the place with their presence. They tend to be adventurous and adaptable. In addition, in any location, they usually easily deal with the people around them. In addition, they need to perfect the art of managing their finances and train in non-violent communication.
Makara (15/01 to 12/02)
They are often referred to as cold or selfish, but this is not true: governed by this sign, they tend to being very practical people and not having too much trouble broaching difficult or embarrassing subjects. However, they know how to value the opinion of others and dialogue with sincerity. They are governed by Saturn and, therefore, believe that great victories come from conquests that demand a lot of effort. They tend to be very rational and therefore let many passions escape because they don't give in easily.
Khumba (02/13 to 03/12)
People of this sign have a huge sense of justice, empathy and protection. They are generous and usually welcome people in suffering. For this reason, they are loyal friends who will always be by your side in times of difficulty. They tend to dream very high – and that is why they are known for their creativity. Romantically, they usually have numerous platonic passions, avoiding real and intense relationships.
Meena (3/13 to 4/13)
They are ruled by Jupiter. For this reason, they tend to get emotional easily, romanticizing life and even the most casual relationships. However, they do not lose their eternal distrust, perhaps on an unhealthy level – they tend to fight unnecessarily due to lack of confidence or jealousy. However, they are still amazing people for affectionate and sentimental moments.
