For example, on Amavasya tithi the Sun and the Moon have identical longitude. A tithi is the duration during which Moon travels 12° away from the Sun. ![]() One cycle of Moon through the Zodiac, or the lunar month, consists of two parts, namely Shukla Paksha(bright half), and Krishna paksha (dark half) Each Paksha- comprises 15 tithis. Hence the assessment of individual character based on Moon is more realistic and dependable. In contrast, Indian Astrology gives primacy to the Moon which covers one sign (30°) in only two and a quarter days, and completes one round of the Zodiac in approximately 28 days. As lakhs of individuals are born in a month, such reading is of general nature. In Western Astrology, personality traits and success in life is judged from the location of the Sun in the horoscope, which remains in a sign for 30 days.
