Nakshatra, pada and rashi

Ambika starts with the syllable A (अ), which the Avakahada chakra gives to Krittika pada 1, in Mesha (Aries) rashi. By tradition it suits a child whose Moon was in that pada at birth.

Mesha (Aries)

The four syllables of Krittika:

  1. pada 1अA
  2. pada 2ईI
  3. pada 3उU
  4. pada 4एE

The fit comes from the name's first sound only; the Moon's nakshatra pada at birth is calculated in the Kundli.

Name number (numerology)

In the Chaldean system the letters of “Ambika” add up to 11, which reduces to 2; Indian numerology associates 2 with Moon (Chandra).
