Mammootty's Vedic Chart: Scorpio Moon in Vishakha

A Scorpio Moon for Malayalam's most enduring face — intensity banked like a coal fire for fifty years.

Mammootty — Malayalam cinema icon across 400+ films, whose career has repeatedly reinvented itself — most recently into a risk-taking late phase in his seventies. Born 1951-09-07 in Chandiroor, India, their Vedic chart offers a fascinating lens on a public life. Below is the full sidereal chart (Lahiri ayanamsa) computed with Swiss Ephemeris, followed by an astrological reading of what the planets suggest.

The Breakdown

Mammootty's Moon sits in Scorpio in Vishakha nakshatra. Vishakha, the forked star of purpose, is ambition with a target: triumph, celebration and the patience to wait for the exact moment. A Scorpio Moon feels in extremes and reveals in instalments. Intensity, secrecy and total loyalty define it — trust is earned once and tested forever. The Moon here is debilitated — a significant amplifier of everything above.

The Sun in Leo (Purva Phalguni nakshatra) shapes the public identity. The Sun in Leo is identity at full noon — the self and the spotlight are the same project. The Sun is own sign in this chart, strengthening that signature further.

Mammootty is currently in Moon Mahadasha (2023-03-31 → 2033-03-31), with the Jupiter antardasha running until 2027-06-30. Moon Mahadasha is the decade of the inner life — public image, mother, home and emotional weather move to the centre, and popularity rises and falls like a tide.

The through-line of this chart is Budha-Aditya Yoga: sun and Mercury together in Leo — the classic signature of intellect, authorship and administrative skill. It is the combination a classical astrologer would circle first — and it maps, with unusual neatness, onto the public story told above.

Mammootty in 2026: Transits and Dasha

A chart is only half the story; the other half is the moving sky. Read from this chart's Scorpio Moon — the Chandra Lagna method used for transit readings — 2026 unfolds as follows.

Dasha weather. The whole of 2026 runs inside Moon Mahadasha, opening the year in its Rahu antardasha. Moon Mahadasha is the decade of the inner life — public image, mother, home and emotional weather move to the centre, and popularity rises and falls like a tide.

Saturn in Pisces. Saturn in the 5th from the Moon slows creative and romantic momentum and asks hard questions about children, students and speculation.

Jupiter's three acts. The year opens with Jupiter in Gemini, the 8th from this Moon. Jupiter in the 8th from the Moon works underground: inheritance, research and hidden support, with sudden turns to navigate. From June 2026 Jupiter moves into Cancer — the 9th from the Moon. Jupiter in the 9th from the Moon is the fortune transit — dharma, teachers, long journeys and the father's blessings align. From October 2026 Jupiter moves into Leo — the 10th from the Moon. Jupiter in the 10th from the Moon crowns the career: honours, promotion and public respect are the year's themes.

Rahu's angle. Rahu spends most of 2026 in Aquarius, the 4th from this Moon — amplifying that house's themes of ambition and visibility, before slipping into Capricorn on December 6, 2026 and re-aiming the hunger for the year ahead.

A Note on Method

Birth times for public figures are not publicly verified. This analysis uses the Moon chart (Chandra Lagna) cast for midday on the birth date — the standard Vedic approach when birth time is unknown. Sign placements, nakshatras, yogas and dasha periods shown here do not depend on birth time. Interpretations are astrological readings for entertainment and reflection, not factual claims about the person.
