See where Magha falls in your birth chart — the sign, house and nakṣatra it occupies.
Magha is the tenth nakshatra, opening Leo. It carries throne and lineage — pride in ancestry, natural authority, and the duty that comes with inherited standing. Those born under it often carry a splendid, almost regal bearing, with good standing and a deep respect for ancestry and tradition; kind-hearted and truthful, generous without seeking return, yet hot-tempered toward dishonesty and anyone who wrongs others. With the throne comes the duty of living up to one's line.
Presided over by the Pitris, the ancestral fathers, with the royal throne as its symbol. Its Vimshottari lord is Ketu.
— Brihat Parashara Hora Shastra daśā adhyāya (Vimśottarī lords)
Span 0°00′–13°20′ Simha; lord Ketu in the Sun's sign — regal bearing with a renunciate thread. Its opening degrees follow the Ashlesha junction, so early Magha births are checked for nakshatra gandanta.
