About this pada

What tradition holds

Astrology associates Vishakha with keeping one's eye on a goal, persistence and steady progress. 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.
