Uttara Phalguni

Born with Chandra in Uttara Phalguni, the star of Aryaman — keeper of promises and friendships — you are loyal, steady and generous, someone whose word holds. In the Simha quarter Surya gives a kingly, commanding streak made for Government, medicine and command; in the three Kanya quarters it turns practical and exact: accounts, engineering, teaching, public health and careful negotiation. You finish what you start, and people lean on you for it. Guard against pride in the first quarter and overwork in the rest — the back and the bowels show the strain.

The four padas

Pada 1 — Dhanu navamsha (Guru); names begin with Te (टे). The Simha quarter — kingly and commanding; KP names the highest posts in Government and commerce, command in the forces or at sea, and surgery.

Pada 2 — Makara navamsha (Shani); names begin with To (टो). Exact and dutiful; KP names teachers and school inspectors, journalists, bankers and revenue officers — and asks you to mind your diet.

Pada 3 — Kumbha navamsha (Shani); names begin with Pa (पा). Studious and methodical; KP names writing and literature, interpreting, the post and mining engineering.

Pada 4 — Meena navamsha (Guru); names begin with Pi (पी). Very active and in good health; KP names dance, the arts and sweet-making.

Health

The spine, back and heart in the Simha quarter; the intestines, bowels and liver in the Kanya quarters — careless eating and irregular meals show up there first. Keep regular hours at the table and see a doctor for anything persistent.
