Daily Rashifal — Friday, 7 August 2026

Today’s Observance: 7 August 2026 falls during the sacred month of Shravan (Saavan), one of the holiest months in the Hindu calendar dedicated to Lord Shiva. Monday fasts (Somvar Vrat) and Shravan Somvar observances are ongoing throughout this month. Additionally, this date is in the vicinity of Nag Panchami observances (which fall on Panchami of Shukla Paksha in Shravan — check regional calendars as it may have fallen on 4–5 August this year). Devotees are encouraged to offer milk, flowers, and bilva leaves at Shiva temples and to recite the Mahamrityunjaya Mantra during Shravan for protection and spiritual merit.

Today’s Rashifal

Based on Vedic sidereal zodiac (Lahiri Ayanamsa). Check your Moon sign for the most accurate reading.

Mesh / Aries (April 14 – May 14)

Ruling Planet: Mars

Your ruling planet Mars is currently transiting Karka, your fourth house of home, mother, and inner security. Combined with Venus in the same sign, there is a strong pull toward domestic matters — a home renovation discussion, a conversation with a parent, or a property-related decision may come to a head today. Siddha Yoga amplifies your ability to close pending negotiations, so use the morning muhurat window if signing any paperwork. Avoid letting pride interfere in a family discussion this evening.

Lucky Colour: Coral Red | Lucky Number: 9

Visit your mother or call an elder family member today — their blessing opens a stuck door.

Vrishabha / Taurus (May 15 – June 14)

Ruling Planet: Venus

The Moon is transiting your own rashi in Rohini, the nakshatra most beloved by the Moon — this is one of the most personally energised days of the current lunar month for you. Your intuition is razor-sharp, your charm magnetic, and financial instincts are unusually accurate. Saturn's trine from Kumbha to your Moon brings disciplined clarity to emotional decisions. This is an excellent day to finalise a budget, discuss a salary expectation, or invest in something of lasting material value. Romance glows warmly tonight.

Lucky Colour: Pearl White | Lucky Number: 6

Write down your top three financial goals this morning — Saturn's stabilising trine will help you commit to a real plan.

Mithuna / Gemini (June 15 – July 14)

Ruling Planet: Mercury

Jupiter is currently transiting your own rashi, Mithuna — an exceptionally fortunate transit that broadens your intellectual horizons and expands professional networks. Today, with Siddha Yoga active, a chance conversation or an unexpected message could open a significant opportunity, perhaps linked to travel, education, or publishing. However, Mars and Venus in your second house of speech and finance indicate a tense moment around money — a partner or colleague may pressure you on a financial commitment. Speak clearly but commit only after due diligence.

Lucky Colour: Emerald Green | Lucky Number: 5

Follow up on that course, certification, or business proposal you bookmarked — Jupiter says the timing is ripe.

Karka / Cancer (July 15 – August 14)

Ruling Planet: Moon

Mars and Venus are both transiting your own rashi, creating an intense first-house conjunction. This places personal identity, physical energy, and desire at centre stage. You may feel unusually assertive — even restless — and attract attention without trying. In relationships, passions run high; this is a powerful day for reconciliation or deepening a romantic bond, but guard against impulsive outbursts. Professionally, your presence in any room commands notice. Channel this energy by leading a project meeting or making that bold pitch you have been rehearsing.

Lucky Colour: Silver | Lucky Number: 2

Exercise or walk briskly in the morning to discharge Mars energy constructively before your most important interaction of the day.

Simha / Leo (August 15 – September 15)

Ruling Planet: Sun

The Sun has entered your own rashi, Simha — your personal solar return period begins, infusing you with vitality, authority, and creative confidence. This is your strongest month of the year, and today's Siddha Yoga amplifies it further. A leadership opportunity at work — heading a new initiative, getting recognition from seniors, or being asked to mentor someone — is strongly indicated. Health is generally excellent; you feel renewed. However, with Mars and Venus in your twelfth house, watch expenditure on luxury items and be mindful of hidden rivalry.

Lucky Colour: Golden Yellow | Lucky Number: 1

Write your intentions for the coming year today — the Sun in your own sign makes this a deeply personal and powerful new beginning.

Kanya / Virgo (September 16 – October 15)

Ruling Planet: Mercury

Today's Moon in Rohini sits in your ninth house of dharma, higher wisdom, and fortune — a deeply auspicious placement for Kanya natives. You may receive guidance from a mentor, teacher, or respected elder that shifts your perspective on a long-standing dilemma. Spiritual inclinations are strong; visiting a temple or engaging in morning prayer feels genuinely grounding rather than routine. Jupiter in Mithuna aspects your tenth house, supporting career reputation. A certificate, award, or public recognition earned over many months may be formally announced or confirmed today.

Lucky Colour: Forest Green | Lucky Number: 3

Seek out a senior colleague or guru figure today — one honest conversation will be worth weeks of solo deliberation.

Tula / Libra (October 16 – November 14)

Ruling Planet: Venus

Venus, your ruling planet, is transiting Karka in your tenth house of career and public standing alongside the energetic Mars. This Mars-Venus conjunction in the tenth house is classically described in Phala Deepika as generating both professional ambition and interpersonal friction in the workplace. Today you may find yourself mediating a conflict between colleagues or being pulled in two directions by competing demands. Your diplomatic skills — Tula's greatest gift — are the solution. A successful mediation today significantly boosts your professional reputation.

Lucky Colour: Pastel Blue | Lucky Number: 6

Resist the urge to take sides in a workplace dispute — position yourself as the calm bridge-builder and you will be the one remembered positively.

Vrishchika / Scorpio (November 15 – December 14)

Ruling Planet: Mars

With your co-ruler Mars in Karka (your ninth house) alongside Venus, today brings an exciting intersection of philosophy, travel, and relationships. You may receive an invitation to travel — for work or a short pilgrimage — or reconnect with someone from a different cultural or geographic background. Romantic prospects are heightened for single Vrishchika natives through social or professional gatherings linked to distant contacts. Saturn in Kumbha aspects your fourth house, urging you to also resolve a domestic structural issue — perhaps a legal document related to property that has been pending.

Lucky Colour: Deep Maroon | Lucky Number: 8

Say yes to an unexpected invitation today — the ninth house transit promises that journeys, literal or intellectual, will be richly rewarding.

Dhanu / Sagittarius (December 15 – January 13)

Ruling Planet: Jupiter

Jupiter, your ruling planet, is in Mithuna — your seventh house of partnerships — and today's Siddha Yoga makes this an outstanding day for contractual agreements, business partnerships, and committed relationships. If you have been deliberating on a joint venture, a marriage proposal, or a formal business deal, today's cosmic alignment provides rare clarity and momentum. The Moon in your sixth house in Rohini suggests a health matter — perhaps a minor digestive issue — deserves prompt attention. Do not defer a doctor's appointment or dietary adjustment you have been putting off.

Lucky Colour: Saffron | Lucky Number: 3

Schedule that long-delayed partnership discussion or sign the collaboration agreement today — Jupiter in your seventh house makes contracts struck now exceptionally durable.

Makara / Capricorn (January 14 – February 12)

Ruling Planet: Saturn

Saturn continues its powerful transit through Kumbha, your second house of wealth, speech, and family values, where it is in its own sign — exceptionally well-placed for long-term financial discipline and honest communication. Today's trine between Saturn and the Moon encourages a mature, grounded emotional response to a challenging financial reality. You may review a budget, insurance policy, or investment portfolio and find that steady, conservative choices made months ago are beginning to yield quiet but solid results. Speak carefully in family discussions; Saturn's second-house influence means your words carry lasting weight.

Lucky Colour: Navy Blue | Lucky Number: 8

Review one long-term savings or investment instrument today — what you recalibrate now under Saturn's discipline will compound meaningfully by year-end.

Kumbha / Aquarius (February 13 – March 13)

Ruling Planet: Saturn

Saturn is in your own rashi, Kumbha, giving you unusual personal access to Saturnine qualities of perseverance, systemic thinking, and karmic rectification. This is a multi-year period of deep restructuring for Kumbha natives, and today — with Siddha Yoga and Moon in your fourth house — the focus shifts to the home and inner emotional life. An opportunity to reorganise your living space, establish a healthier home routine, or make peace with a family member appears. Do not dismiss this domestic nudge as trivial; B.V. Raman noted that Saturn in lagna often rewards those who build strong foundations at home before reaching outward.

Lucky Colour: Electric Blue | Lucky Number: 7

Declutter one room or corner of your home today — Vastu and Saturn both reward the act of releasing what no longer serves your growth.

Meena / Pisces (March 14 – April 13)

Ruling Planet: Jupiter

Jupiter in Mithuna sits in your fourth house of home, comfort, and emotional security, expanding domestic happiness and creating opportunities linked to real estate and educational environments. Today's Rohini Moon in your third house sharpens communication skills and creative expression — an ideal day for writers, musicians, artists, or anyone preparing a presentation, proposal, or creative submission. A sibling or close friend may bring surprisingly good news. The Mars-Venus conjunction in your fifth house also stirs romantic imagination and creative passion; a collaborative creative project with someone you admire could begin today.

Lucky Colour: Sea Green | Lucky Number: 4

Pick up that creative project or artistic hobby you have been neglecting — today's planetary alignment makes your imagination unusually vivid and prolific.

Vastu Tip of the Day

Friday is ruled by Venus (Shukra), the planet of beauty, abundance, and harmonious relationships. According to the Mahavastu Handbook and classical Vishwakarma Prakash principles, the Southeast corner of any home or office is the Agneya (fire) zone governed by Venus energy. Today, place fresh white or pink flowers — jasmine, mogra, or roses — in the Southeast corner of your living room or workspace. Light a ghee lamp or a fragrant dhoop in this direction during the morning muhurat. This activates Shukra's positive energies of wealth attraction and relational harmony, and helps neutralise conflicts between family members or professional partners.

Vedic Wisdom

Parasara taught in the Brihat Parasara Hora Shastra: 'Grahas (planets) are the instruments of karma, not its authors — the soul moves through them as light moves through a prism, each colour its own truth.' Today, under the nurturing light of Rohini and the fulfilment of Siddha Yoga, remember that the planets illuminate your path — it is your conscious, dharmic action that walks it. Act with clarity, speak with kindness, and trust the auspiciousness of this Friday.
