It covers 0° to 13°20′ of Mesha and is the starting point of the zodiac. Because it is ruled by the gods' twin horseman physicians, it is associated with speed, healing and emergency intervention. People with the Moon here are bold, energetic and eager for new beginnings. Medicine, sports, first aid and pioneering work are considered suitable fields. Impatience and a tendency to leave things half-finished are points to watch. In the traditional gana classification it belongs to the “deva” (divine-natured) group and is one of the swift-moving mansions; it is considered favorable for setting out on journeys and starting medical treatment.
