About Lagna (Ascendant)

Lagna (Udaya Lagna) is the zodiac sign rising on the eastern horizon at any given moment. In a Hindu day (sunrise to sunrise), all 12 rashis rise once. Each rashi stays as Lagna for approximately 2 hours, though the duration varies by rashi and season.

Lagna is critical for Muhurat selection. The rising sign at the start of any event determines the nature and outcome of that event. For lasting results, Sthir (fixed) Lagnas are preferred — Vrishabha, Simha, Vrishchika, and Kumbha.
