Lucky Attributes
Mulank 3: Born on the 12th
Mulank 3 is ruled by Jupiter, the planet of wisdom, teaching and expansion. People born on the 3rd, 12th, 21st or 30th often carry an optimistic, expressive nature and an instinct to guide or advise others. Their challenge is focus, because the same curiosity that makes them good company can scatter their energy across too many plans at once.
