Ruled by Jupiter, Punarvasu natives often do well in teaching, law, finance, advisory work and religious service. The deity Aditi and the symbol of a quiver of arrows add their own flavour to the work style.
Birth dasha
Someone born with the Moon in Punarvasu starts life in the Jupiter Mahadasha. The balance depends on how far the Moon had travelled through the nakshatra at birth.
