The Simha Moon
Simha, ruled by the Sun, is warm, proud and generous. A Simha Moon wants to be appreciated and gives loyalty and protection in return. Its people lead naturally and love to create. Tradition asks them to lead with the heart rather than the crown.
Your rasi is the sign the Moon occupied at birth. The Lagna and the rest of the chart shape how it shows up in you.

Bhakoot, worth 7 of the 36 gunas, looks at the distance between the two Moon signs. For Simha, a partner in Makara or Meena is in a 6/8 relationship, Dhanu or Mesha 5/9, and Kanya or Karka 2/12: these give Bhakoot dosha unless the two Moon-sign lords are the same or friends. Any other sign scores the full 7 points.
