What tradition holds

Tradition holds that people with the Moon in Purva Bhadrapada can live for a larger ideal and put full dedication into what they believe. Through its navamsa, tradition also sees these qualities here: patience, reliability, good sense with money and resources, and a feel for beauty and the arts. These are tendencies tradition describes, not a label on anyone; the real picture comes from the whole chart.
