Why did I take birth?
In Vedic astrology, your birth is not random, it’s the result of past-life karmas. You took birth to balance certain karmic debts, fulfill unresolved duties, and progress on your soul journey. The 12th house shows past life influences, while the 9th house and Atmakaraka planet (from Jaimini astrology) guide your dharma or life purpose.

What past karmas do I need to focus on?
Your Rahu and Ketu axis reveals your karmic blueprint. Rahu shows your past life overattachment; Ketu shows where your soul must grow in this life. For example, Ketu in the 4th and Rahu in the 10th suggests a past-life detachment towards family, home/emotions, cause of your fulfillment of career obligations. The Saturn’s placement also shows karmic lessons and delays.

What is the aim of this birth?
Your Dharma (life purpose) is found through the Lagna, the 9th house, the Sun, and the Atmakaraka. A strong 9th house points to spiritual learning. The Moon’s nakshatra can also guide your mental and emotional tendencies in this life. If placed in moksha houses (4th, 8th, or 12th), it shows a deep urge for liberation.

How will I attain Moksha?
Moksha is liberation from the cycle of birth and death. In astrology, the moksha trikon (4th, 8th, and 12th houses), Ketu, Saturn and Jupiter play vital roles. A spiritually inclined chart with Ketu in the 12th or Jupiter in strong dignity, and a weak attachment to worldly pleasures, suggests a soul ready for moksha. Spiritual service, meditation, and inner purification aligned with your chart’s guidance can aid this journey.
