What people often ask

What are the Tula rashi letters?

The Tula rashi (Libra) letters are Ra, Ri, Ru, Re, Ro, Ta, Ti, Tu, Te (soft त).

Is the rashi from the Moon or the Sun?

In Indian naming the rashi is the Moon sign at birth, not the Western Sun sign. A baby born in, say, April is not automatically Aries.

Do we have to use the rashi letter?

It is a tradition, not a rule. Many families use the rashi letter for the formal name (naam rashi) and choose any name they love for everyday use.
