What this pada adds

its navamsa and its aim

Uttara 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 4 sends it into a Pisces navamsa, ruled by Guru. The navamsa (D9) is the chart read for marriage and for the strength behind a placement, so in this pada Guru colours what Uttara Ashadha gives.

By natural friendship Guru counts Surya a friend, and Surya counts Guru a friend, so the navamsa supports what the nakshatra gives.

The pada tradition reads each quarter by its navamsa’s element: a water navamsa makes this a Moksha pada, turned towards release, inner life and letting go.
