Ruled by Apas, goddess of the waters, this mansion is symbolized by an elephant tusk or a fan; courage and persuasive power, like an unstoppable current, are its qualities. People with the Moon here are optimistic, persuasive and passionate; they do not hesitate to defend their beliefs. Public speaking, teaching and advocacy suit them.
