Yash in numerology
Indian numerologists use the Chaldean method: each letter has a value from 1 to 8, and the total is reduced to one digit.
| Letter | Y | A | S | H | Total |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Value | 1 | 1 | 3 | 5 | 10 → 1 |
Number 1 is ruled by the Sun (सूर्य): the leader. Number 1 people like to start things and take charge. They work best with freedom and a clear goal. Its keywords are independent, ambitious, original.
In the Western (Pythagorean) method, Yash has an Expression number of 8, a Soul Urge (vowels) of 1 and a Personality (consonants) of 7. See all of them with the name numerology calculator.
Birth dates that suit Yash
A name works best when its number is friendly with the child’s Mulank (Moolank), the day of birth reduced to one digit. Number 1 compares with each Mulank like this:
| Born on | Mulank | Fit with 1 |
|---|---|---|
| 1, 10, 19, 28 | 1 (Sun) | Excellent |
| 2, 11, 20, 29 | 2 (Moon) | Excellent |
| 3, 12, 21, 30 | 3 (Jupiter) | Excellent |
| 4, 13, 22, 31 | 4 (Rahu) | Difficult |
| 5, 14, 23 | 5 (Mercury) | Good |
| 6, 15, 24 | 6 (Venus) | Difficult |
| 7, 16, 25 | 7 (Ketu) | Difficult |
| 8, 17, 26 | 8 (Saturn) | Difficult |
| 9, 18, 27 | 9 (Mars) | Excellent |
Yash suits babies born on these days of any month: 1, 2, 3, 5, 9, 10, 11, 12, 14, 18, 19, 20, 21, 23, 27, 28, 29 and 30. It is a weaker fit for a Mulank of 4, 6, 7 and 8. The Bhagyank (the full date) matters too, so check your baby’s exact date below.
Yash in astrology: rashi and nakshatra
Families who follow the naam akshar choose a name that starts with the syllable of the baby’s birth nakshatra. Yash starts with या (Ya), the syllable of Jyeshtha pada 2, which falls in Vrishchika rashi (Scorpio), ruled by Mars.
So Yash is a traditional fit for a boy born when the Moon was in Jyeshtha pada 2, and many families also accept it for any Vrishchika rashi baby.
