आरूढ पद — Ārūḍha Padas (Jaimini Ch.4)

Per Jaimini Sūtras: how each bhāva manifests externally in the world. The Ārūḍha Lagna (AL) is the public-image rāśi (vs. the actual Lagna which is the internal nature). The world sees the native through the AL, not the L.

🪷 Ārūḍha Lagna: कन्या Virgo — the world's perception of this native.
