| Birth data reliability | Reference |
Birth details come from a published reference (source: Web) and have not been checked against a birth record, so the Moon sign is usually right but the Ascendant could differ.
Computed with Swiss Ephemeris (Lahiri ayanamsa). Exact birth time is not publicly recorded, so noon local time was used. The Moon changes Nakshatra about once a day, so the Nakshatra and Ascendant shown may differ if the true birth time is different.
Our library holds 314 writers and poets with a computed Vedic chart from reliable birth data. 25 of them (8%) have the Moon in Leo, like J. K. Rowling, and 15 (5%) share the Purva Phalguni Nakshatra — the #5 most common Moon Nakshatra among writers and poets, where Shravana leads with 18 (6%).
For scale, an even spread would put about 3.7% in each of the 27 Nakshatras and 8.3% in each Moon sign. These are simple counts from our dataset, not a prediction.
