Uttara Ashadha nakshatra traits

The final victory: principled, patient and building achievements that last.

Dasha at birth

If your Moon is in Uttara Ashadha, your life begins in the Sun dasha, a 6-year period; how much of it remains at birth depends on how far through Uttara Ashadha the Moon had travelled.

Uttara Ashadha in the Panchang

When the Moon passes through Uttara Ashadha, the day takes on a fixed quality, traditionally good for home, laying foundations and long-term work. See today's nakshatra in the Panchang.
