"Neerottam" () is a Tamil word that translates to "stream" or "flow" in English, often used metaphorically to describe the flow of life, events, or emotions.

There are 12 different horoscope signs, each with its own strengths, weaknesses, traits, desires, and way of viewing the world. Your personal astrological sign is based on the position of the sun on the day you were born.

Each of the zodiac signs is also associated with a planet, or a "ruler." This planet exerts a stronger influence over a given sign than any other planet. It affects how your zodiac sign interacts with others, approaches life, and forms relationships. A sign\'s temperament is often defined by its planetary ruler, bringing through a passive, aggressive, conservative, receptive, or extroverted personality type.

The traditional planets–Mars, Venus, Mercury, Saturn, and Jupiter–all serve more than one sign. While the sun and moon are assigned only to Leo and Cancer.

Mars–ruled signs tend to be motivated by passions and can sometimes lean toward aggressive or impulsive behaviors. Mercury-ruled signs have a natural curiosity, making them excellent students and communicators. With Venus as a planetary ruler, we see a desire for romance, aesthetics, and luxury. Saturn can bring out a restrained or traditional personality type who values structure and order. Jupiter bestows the signs it rules with optimism and a larger-than-life energy. The sun\'s rulership of Leo can be credited for this member of the zodiac\'s warmth and sense of pride. The Moon is responsible for Cancer\'s intuition and nurturing tendencies.

These seven celestial bodies solely governed the zodiac for centuries. But as astronomers continued to discover planets, some members of the zodiac were given a secondary, or modern, ruler. Pluto represents power and transformation, aligning with the intensity it brings to Scorpios. Uranus is known to shake things up, bringing an unpredictable element to Aquarius signs. Meanwhile, Neptune is thought to be responsible for the dreamy outlook of Pisces. Though the modern planetary rulers have prominent roles in the signs they govern, it\'s important to take into account each sign\'s traditional planets as well, and how these rulers work together.
