Exact span in the sidereal zodiac
Bharani occupies 13° 20' 00" to 26° 40' 00" measured from 0° sidereal Aries — that is 13° 20' 00" Aries (Mesha) up to 26° 40' 00" Aries (Mesha). Every nakshatra is exactly 13°20′ wide, so 27 of them tile the 360° circle with no gap and no overlap.
The four padas
Each pada is 3°20′ wide and corresponds to one navamsa. The pada of your Moon is what fixes the exact starting balance of your first Vimshottari mahadasha.
| Pada | From | To | Navamsa sign |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | 13° 20' 00" Aries (Mesha) | 16° 40' 00" Aries (Mesha) | Leo (Simha) |
| 2 | 16° 40' 00" Aries (Mesha) | 19° 60' 00" Aries (Mesha) | Virgo (Kanya) |
| 3 | 20° 00' 00" Aries (Mesha) | 23° 20' 00" Aries (Mesha) | Libra (Tula) |
| 4 | 23° 20' 00" Aries (Mesha) | 26° 40' 00" Aries (Mesha) | Scorpio (Vrishchika) |
