Vedic Context & Meaning

Kanya translates to a young maiden depicted sitting in a boat, carrying ears of grain in one hand and a fire lamp (Deepa) in the other. Ruled by Mercury (Budh), this sign represents purity, service, and discrimination (Viveka). The boat represents traversing the ocean of material existence; the grain signifies nourishment and practical skills; and the lamp symbolizes knowledge and analytical clarity.
