Tula is the seventh rashi, ruled by Venus (Shukra). As a moon sign it describes a harmony-seeking, diplomatic and relationship-oriented emotional nature.
The Tula mind and emotions
With the Moon in Tula, the mind weighs both sides and dislikes conflict, finding emotional balance through relationships and fairness. Venus brings charm, romance and an aesthetic sense, with a tendency to hesitate when a decision means upsetting the balance.

These are traditional associations, not promises. The gemstone is the rashi lord’s stone, and you should only wear it on a qualified astrologer’s advice.
Tula compatibility
By the element and opposition model, Tula clicks with some rashis more easily than others. Read these as a starting point, not a verdict: real compatibility comes from both full charts, not the moon sign on its own.
Tula career
Law and diplomacy, the fine arts and music, design, counselling, fashion and hospitality.
Why moon sign, not sun sign?
In Vedic astrology the Moon stands for the mind (manas-karaka), so your janma rashi, the sidereal sign the Moon was in at birth, is read as your core self. That is why people ask for your rashi, not your sun sign. Since it runs on the Moon and the sidereal zodiac, your rashi is often a different sign from your tropical Libra sun sign.
Nakshatras in Tula
Each rashi holds parts of several nakshatras, the lunar mansions that add a finer layer on top of the moon sign. Tula spans the last two padas of Chitra, Swati, and the first three padas of Vishakha. Which exact nakshatra you get comes down to the precise spot of your Moon.
Tula naming syllables
In the Hindu naming tradition (namakaran), a child born under Tula rashi often gets a name starting with one of these syllables, picked by the Moon’s nakshatra and pada at birth:
Tula remedy
To strengthen Venus, the lord of Tula, tradition suggests a Friday fast (Shukravar vrat), the Venus mantra "Om Draam Dreem Draum Sah Shukraya Namah", and white offerings.
These are traditional devotional practices, not guaranteed outcomes.
