About this pada

Pada 2 of Shravana runs from Makara 13°20′ to Makara 16°40′ (3°20′ in all). This pada lies in Makara; its navamsa is Vrishabha, ruled by Venus. The nakshatra's lord is Moon, so a birth in this pada begins with the Moon mahadasha. In the avakahada chakra (tradition), the name syllable of this pada is 'खू' (Khu).

What tradition holds

Tradition holds that people with the Moon in Shravana are good listeners: they hear before they speak and catch the heart of a matter. 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.
