What this pada adds
its navamsa and its aimUttara Ashadha in Brihat Jataka (16.11) Brihat Jataka says a person born with the Moon in Uttara Ashadha is modest and well-mannered, versed in dharma, rich in friends, grateful, quick to return a kindness and well liked. (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.
Uttara Ashadha gives the Moon its nature through Surya; pada 2 sends it into a Capricorn navamsa, ruled by Shani. The navamsa (D9) is the chart read for marriage and for the strength behind a placement, so in this pada Shani colours what Uttara Ashadha gives.
By natural friendship Shani counts Surya an enemy, and Surya counts Shani an enemy, so the two pull against each other and the pada asks for balance.
The pada tradition reads each quarter by its navamsa’s element: an earth navamsa makes this an Artha pada, turned towards livelihood, wealth and security.
