What is Arudha Pada
Arudha Means Image. Image is not Real. It is Just a reflection of our Picture. Similarly Arudha Pada of Various House is the Image or Reflection of Various House.
Arudha Lagna is the Image of our own Personality. How People See us or How people Perceive us. Aruhdha Pada of 2nd house is the Image of the 2nd House. It indicates what people think about our Wealth, our Relatives etc. Arudha Pada of 10th house is the Image of our Career.
Let me explain it with an Example.
Suppose You work in a Multi National Company. People of our Society will think you as a Successful Person. But you may not be very Happy in your workplace. You may not be getting Promotion or You may not enjoy working in that office. But still as You work in a very large organisation, People will think that you are Very Happy and Successful in Your Career. This image is Arudha. People Perceive you as a Very Successful Person which May be or May not be true.
So Upapada Lagna is the Arudha Pada of 12th house. It is Very important in the Analysis of Marriage, Spouse, Marriage Time etc. Upapada Lagna, Its Lord, dara Pada(A7) and Arudha Lagna can also reveal lot of things in future spouse prediction in astrology.
