| Role | Degrees in Libra | Nakshatra | Width |
|---|---|---|---|
| Sub-lord | 5°33′20″ – 6°40′00″ | Chitra (Mars) | 1.11° · ≈4 min of Ascendant motion |
| Sub-lord | 18°06′40″ – 19°13′20″ | Swati (Rahu) | 1.11° · ≈4 min of Ascendant motion |
| Sub-lord | 29°26′40″ – 30°00′00″ | Vishakha (Jupiter) | 0.56° · ≈2 min of Ascendant motion |
Moon rules no nakshatra inside Libra, so it can only act here as a sub-lord (or as the sign-level dispositor).
The narrowest Moon sub-lord slice in Libra is 0.56° wide, about 2 minutes of Ascendant motion; the widest is 1.11° (≈4 min). The Ascendant moves roughly 1° per 4 minutes on average, so a few minutes of birth-time error can change the sub-lord.
