Mīna — Pisces

Mīna is the 12th rāśi, the feet of the Kāla-puruṣa, ruled by Guru. Parāśara's rāśi-svarūpa chapter gives it a colour, a direction, a varṇa and a manner of rising; Phaladīpikā states what a person born with Mīna rising is like. SIA computes the lagna and every graha's rāśi for the birth moment and fires the rules that name Mīna — the verses below are the ones it reads from.
