About this pada

Pada 3 of Shatabhisha runs from Kumbha 13°20′ to Kumbha 16°40′ (3°20′ in all). This pada lies in Kumbha; its navamsa is Kumbha, ruled by Saturn. The nakshatra's lord is Rahu, so a birth in this pada begins with the Rahu mahadasha. In the avakahada chakra (tradition), the name syllable of this pada is 'सी' (Si). Here the sign and the navamsa are the same (Kumbha); this is called vargottama.

What tradition holds

Tradition holds that people with the Moon in Shatabhisha think out their own path and rarely like following a crowd. Through its navamsa, tradition also sees these qualities here: original thinking, fairness, loyalty in friendship, and a wish to do something for society. These are tendencies tradition describes, not a label on anyone; the real picture comes from the whole chart.
