Dual Signs and Their Corresponding Houses in Vedic Astrology
In Vedic astrology (Jyotish), the zodiac signs are categorized into three modalities based on their nature and behavior: Movable (Chara), Fixed (Sthira), and Dual (Dwiswabhava). Dual signs, also called mutable signs, exhibit a blend of flexibility and stability. They can adapt to changing situations while maintaining some consistency, making them versatile and balanced.
