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. Vishakha is one of those nine: padas 1, 2, 3 in Tula; padas 4 in Vrishchika.

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.
