Moon in the signs
The sixteenth mansion has two deities, Indra and Agni, and a symbol like a triumphal arch. It is ambition with a target on it.
Its lord is Jupiter. Vishakha means 'forked', and the tradition reads it as the moment of choosing between two roads and driving hard down one. It is the mansion of goals achieved late and at cost, which is not how it is usually sold.
