from Astrology and Karma, by K.N.
Rao - ch. 5
In Indian astrology the importance of the Moon is understood
clearly because along with the planets here we make use of
the twenty-seven constellations (nakshatras or lunar constellations).
The scheme to be followed in delineating the contours of anyone's
destiny is:
1. Start with the Lagna which is the physical body.
2. Then examine the Moon, which is the Life Force.
3. The Sun is the Soul.
4. The other planets, Mars, Mercury, Jupiter, Venus, Saturn,
Rahu and Ketu are the flesh and blood.
Why the Moon is so important can be understood that in the
Indian Panchangas (Indian Ephemeris) which have five
elements determined by the position of the Moon.
