Where Rohini pada 1 is
3°20′ of the zodiac, and what falls in itRohini pada 1 is the first 3°20′ of Rohini, 10°00′ Taurus – 13°20′ Taurus, in Taurus. A Moon here is named by the syllable O and falls in a Aries navamsa.
What this pada adds
its navamsa and its aimRohini in Brihat Jataka (16.2) Brihat Jataka says a person born with the Moon in Rohini is truthful, clean in habits, sweet of speech, firm in their views and good-looking, and does not covet what belongs to others. (Chapter 16 reads several nakshatras in each verse, one after another.) The text reads the nakshatra as a whole; the pada refines it through its navamsa, below.
Rohini gives the Moon its nature through Chandra; pada 1 sends it into a Aries navamsa, ruled by Mangal. The navamsa (D9) is the chart read for marriage and for the strength behind a placement, so in this pada Mangal colours what Rohini gives.
By natural friendship Mangal counts Chandra a friend, and Chandra counts Mangal neutral, so the navamsa neither helps nor hinders much.
The pada tradition reads each quarter by its navamsa’s element: a fire navamsa makes this a Dharma pada, turned towards right conduct, duty and purpose.

The Mool shanti is traditionally done on the 27th day after birth, when the Moon returns to the birth nakshatra.
