Nakshatra Significance
Uttara Phalguni (उत्तर फाल्गुनी) is the 12th nakshatra in the 27-nakshatra system. Its presiding deity is Aryaman, with sun as the ruling graha. The symbol — Back legs of bed — characterises the qualities this nakshatra confers on those born under it.
The gana for Uttara Phalguni is manushya, used in Ashtakoota matching. The Nadi is adi — same-Nadi marriages are traditionally avoided (Nadi Dosha), while different-Nadi pairings are considered ideal for health compatibility.
Uttara Phalguni spans 146.667°–160° of the zodiac and is classed as a fixed nakshatra of manushya nature. Classically it signifies friendship, patronage, contracts, marriage — themes elders often echo in the meaning of the name chosen for a Uttara Phalguni-born child.
Nadi & Gana — Matching Context for Uttara Phalguni Babies
Uttara Phalguni belongs to the Adi (Vata) Nadi. In Ashtakoota matching, a partner born in the same Nadi scores 0 of 8 in the Nadi koota (Nadi Dosha). The other Adi-Nadi nakshatras a Uttara Phalguni-born traditionally checks against are: Ashwini, Ardra, Punarvasu, Hasta, Jyeshtha, Moola, Shatabhisha, Purva Bhadrapada.
Its gana is manushya — shared with Bharani, Rohini, Ardra, Purva Phalguni, Purva Ashadha, Uttara Ashadha, Purva Bhadrapada, Uttara Bhadrapada. Gana describes innate temperament in the Gan koota (6 points), which is why elders often ask for the nakshatra, not just the rashi, when a match is discussed.
