Mrigashira Nakshatra Pada 3
The 3rd quarter of Mrigashira: moon sign Mithuna (Gemini), navamsa Tula, naming syllable Ka.
What the pada decides
A nakshatra spans 13°20' of the zodiac and each pada 3°20'. The pada fixes three things: the naming syllable, the navamsa sign that astrologers read for marriage, and — for the nine nakshatras that straddle two moon signs — the rashi itself. Mrigashira is one of those nine: padas 1, 2 in Vrishabha; padas 3, 4 in Mithuna.
Padas also matter in nadi dosha: several classical exemptions apply when two people share a nakshatra but were born in different padas — one reason the birth time is worth finding.
