The national horoscope of India, based on Lahiri Ayanamsa, offers deep spiritual and political insight into Bharat’s destiny. Cast for 15 August 1947 at 00:00 IST in Delhi, this Vedic chart uses Taurus as the Lagna (Ascendant) and reflects India’s spiritual legacy, economic evolution, and karmic world role.
| Planet | Sign (Rashi) | House from Taurus Lagna |
|---|---|---|
| Ascendant | Taurus | 1st House |
| Rahu | Taurus | 1st House |
| Mars | Gemini | 2nd House |
| Moon | Cancer | 3rd House |
| Mercury | Cancer | 3rd House |
| Sun | Cancer | 3rd House |
| Venus | Cancer | 3rd House |
| Saturn (Retrograde) | Cancer | 3rd House |
| Jupiter (Retrograde) | Libra | 6th House |
| Ketu | Scorpio | 7th House |
India’s identity is rooted in culture, agriculture, and tradition. Rahu in Lagna gives ambition, transformation, and desire for global power. It fuels India’s rise on the world stage and constant internal reform.
Financially alert and militarily aware. Mars in Gemini combines speech with strength. Economic debates, military budgeting, and sharp communication strategies emerge from this placement.
This Cancer cluster shows an emotionally powerful public, protective national attitude, strong media, and intense diplomacy. It also shows delays (Saturn) and emotional waves (Moon) in neighborly relations and border affairs.
India has karmic challenges with health, debt, and legal systems. Jupiter here brings spiritual wisdom during adversity. It supports balanced judicial evolution and service to weaker sections.
India’s international relations are karmic and transformative. Ketu’s presence makes foreign policy unpredictable. Long-standing karmic ties (e.g., with Pakistan, China) require spiritual insight and caution.
Lahiri Ayanamsa (Chitrapaksha) is the official ayanamsa adopted by the Indian government and most traditional Vedic astrologers. It gives a sidereal zodiac based chart, aligned with fixed stars, unlike tropical Western astrology.
The powerful placements in Cancer (patriotism), Libra (justice), Taurus (culture), and Scorpio (karma) suggest that India is more than a political entity. It is a dharmic force—meant to preserve and spread spiritual wisdom. The Vedic chart reflects this deeper mission.
The ascendant at 00:00 hours on 15 August 1947 over Delhi was Taurus. This sets the tone for India’s grounded, spiritual, and economic growth orientation.
Yes. Lahiri is the most respected and officially recognized ayanamsa for casting Vedic charts. It gives the correct nakshatras and dasha periods.
It means karmic entanglements and spiritual tests in international diplomacy. Relationships with neighbors often involve sudden shifts and secrets.
India’s horoscope using Lahiri Ayanamsa provides a timeless map of its identity, growth, and global destiny. With a Taurus Lagna and karmic axis of Rahu-Ketu, the nation is both material and spiritual—a blend of dharma and development. Vedic astrology continues to unveil Bharat’s cosmic role for centuries to come.
