Modern sign synthesis - not from a classical text. The lucky day, colour and number are the same.
Sagittarius (Dhanu) is optimistic, philosophical and free. Ruled by Jupiter, natives love truth, travel and higher learning.
Teaching, law, publishing, travel, spirituality and consulting.
Honest and adventurous, they need freedom and a partner who shares their ideals.
Counted from the Moon sign, vedha included. These grahas stay in a sign for months or years, so this is what sets the longer tone.
Sade Sati is not running for Sagittarius, but Saturn is in the 4th house from it - dhaiya (small panoti). Check against your own chart
A sign's 30 degrees are nine nakshatra padas - two and a quarter nakshatras. The birth Moon's pada is also where the first syllable of a traditional name is taken from.
The syllables are the jyotisha almanac's table (the avakahada chakra). The Dharmasindhu (1888, p. 133) records that some name a child by it, and says the srauta and grihya texts do not agree; no text stating the table itself was found.
Counted from the janma rāśi (Moon sign) - Phaladeepika 26.2.
