About this pada

What tradition holds

Tradition holds that Rohini is gentle, steady and quick to notice beauty. Through its navamsa, tradition also sees these qualities here: courage, a habit of taking the initiative, frank speech, and stepping forward to take responsibility when things get hard. These are tendencies tradition describes, not a label on anyone; the real picture comes from the whole chart.
