Vrishabha, Mithuna, Kataka, Dhanus, Mesha and Makara possess strength at night. These, excepting the sign Mithuna, rise with their rear portion first. The rest appear with their heads and have strength during the day. They are also termed signs characterised by superiority. The rising sign at any given time, if represented by a couple of fish-figures, is to come under both the Prishtodaya and Sirshodaya.
