It extends from 23°20′ Kanya to 6°40′ Tula. Ruled by the divine craftsman Tvashtar, Chitra is symbolized by a bright jewel or a pearl. Design, architecture and aesthetic creation are this mansion's domain. People with the Moon here are attractive, detail-oriented and care about appearances. Mars rulership adds courage and productivity. Design, fashion, engineering and art suit them. Placing too much importance on appearance and showiness are its shadow sides. It falls into the “rakshasa” group but is among the soft (mridu) mansions; it is considered favorable for fine arts, architecture and decorative work.
