This is the third nakshatra of zodiac, spanning 26°-40' in Mesh to 10°-00' in Vrishabha. Its first quarter falls in the Mesh, while the remaining three quarters fall in Vrishabha. Accordingly, people with the moon in the first quarter show aggressive tendencies of mars, while the people with the moon in the Vrishabha are more calm and steady, showing the characteristics of the plant Venus.

Generally, these people are of middle stature with a commanding appearance. They are intelligent yet a little proud. Proud side of the nature is prominent in case of natives born in Vrishabha. They are a jack of all trade but master of none. And though they can give the correct advice to people in need, they may not be able to guide themselves in times of difficulty.

For these people, their self-esteem is the important thing. They are too confident of themselves and do not like to be criticized. They are generally honest and do not like to use unfair means to achieve their objectives. They have a desire to be free of any obligations, financially or morally. If the sun in their chart also happens to be in a fiery sign, theses people possess excellent stamina and conviction to pursue their goals. They are not satisfied and they will not rest till they achieve what they want. While they are orthodox by nature, they do not follow the traditions blindly. They like to travel. These people tend to get legacies.

These people get frustrated very easily, which leads to their provocation. And once they loose their cool, it is difficult to control them. Their behavior when provoked can be really dangerous when some explosive planet like Mars or Pluto is placed in any of the fiery signs.

The urge to be free of any obligations or bonds means these people can seldom work in subordinate positions. But a government job suits them, as it carries the royal powers and authority, which is a feature of Sun, the lord of this nakshatra. Their desire to work at their own speed sometimes results in others believing that they are lazy.

The females born under this nakshatra are somewhat quarrelsome. They do not hesitate to express their opinions, however opposed their views may be. This frequently results in making enemies even of close friends.
