#Ashwini (அசுவினி): The Beginner
Placement: 00° 00’ to 13° 20’ of Aries

Element: #Earth (Bhumi)

Pushkara Navamsha/Bhaga: NA

Gandanta Nakshatra

Ashwini is the first #nakshatra among the 27 #nakshatras, and as such, it marks the beginning of everything, including life. It is said to have a magical quality, bestowing its natives with magical abilities and knowledge. As it is also a fast-moving nakshatra, with the moon transiting over it faster than others, any actions taken on this day are believed to be carried out more quickly.
​

Deity: The deity of Ashwini nakshatra is the #AshwiniKumaras, the twin brothers who are known as the celestial physicians with magical powers for healing the wounded and bringing the dead back to life. The name Ashwini is derived from their association with horses as they were born to Lord Surya (Sun) and his wife Sanjana in horse and mare form, resulting in their physical form having a horse's head and a human body. These brothers are forever young, agile and never age. Despite being identical twins, they differ in nature, as one brother prepares the medicine while the other applies it. One is sattvic and the other is tamasic, yet they remain inseparable.
​

Natural #healers: Nakshatras such as #Ashwini, #Ardra, #Pushya, #Hasta, #Anuradha, #Moola, #Dhanishta, #Satabishak, and #Revati have the natural ability to #heal.

​

Ruler: #Ketu, the #oldest #planet in #astrology and the planet of creation, rules over Ashwini nakshatra. This nakshatra is known for its swift and transformative energy, which is also associated with Lord #Ganesha, the deity of new beginnings, power, and success. While Ketu is often associated with endings, it's important to remember that every ending marks the start of something new. As a result, Ashwini nakshatra is considered to be an auspicious time for starting new projects and endeavors.
​

To gain philosophical wisdom, one must possess knowledge of the lunar nodes, Rahu and Ketu.

Symbol: This nakshatra is symbolized by the "horse's head". As the head is the supreme organ in the body and carries all five sensory organs, it holds great significance. Wearing a crown on one's head signifies royalty and authority, which is why the Sun gets exalted in this nakshatra.
​

Guna: This nakshatra is characterized as Rajasic, with a focus on continuous physical activity and an emphasis on swift movements.

Animal: The animal symbol associated with Ashwini nakshatra is the male horse, or stallion. As the twin deities of the nakshatra are associated with horses, this is not surprising. Horses are renowned for their speed, with their beautiful manes and stunning looks adding to their appeal.

Power: The #power attributed to this nakshatra is "Shidra Vyapani #Shakti", which refers to the ability to quickly reach one's destination or achieve one's goal.

General attributes: Individuals who are strongly influenced by Ashwini nakshatra exhibit twin personalities in nature. They may experience #sudden #shifts from being silent to being vocal, or from being idle to taking action. They are natural healers, and their words or actions may carry a certain healing energy. As it is the first nakshatra and where the Sun first gets exalted, they always possess the energy to create or initiate something. They are likely to value constant physical movement, strength, and courage. The influence of Ketu may make them selfless, but it can also make them reckless at times. Sitting in one place for an extended period can be challenging for them, and their lives will always be full of movement and new experiences. It is important to note that these are general qualities, and individual experiences may vary.

#Dhanishta #Nakshatra

A child born in the Dhanishta Nakshatra will always cherish and value relationships with siblings. These children grow up to be wealthy and they enjoy a good married life too.

The 15th, 19th, and 23rd years of their life are inauspicious.
Jupiter is their enemy planet.

The 23th #Nakshatra: #DHANISHTA.

The four quarters are ruled by:
Sūrya (Sun) - the 1st quarter,
Buddha (Mercury) - the 2nd quarter,
Shukra (Venus) - the 3rd quarter,
and Mangala (Mars) - the 4th quarter.

Other aspects of this Nakshatra:
The Purushardha (life's vector or motivation) is #Dharma.
Totem animal is #Lion (female).
Symbol - Mridanga (musical #drum) or #flute.
Devata (Deity) - #Ashtavasu.
Dosha - #Pitta.

This Nakshatra is owned by the fiery planet #Mangala ( #Mars). This Nakshatra spans from 23°20' in Makara (Capricorn) to 6°40' in Kumbha (Aquarius). While the first half of this Nakshatra falls in the sign Makara (Capricorn), the other half falls in the sign Kumbha (Aquarius). Though both these signs are owned by the same Graha (planet), #Shani ( #Saturn), the characteristics of both these signs differ. Accordingly, the results seen in case of a person born in the Nakshatra Dhanistha with Makara (Capricorn) as the sign will be different form the person born in Dhanishta with Kumbha (Aquarius) as the sign.

People born in this Nakshatra are lean and tall, with good ability to resist contagious diseases. Females born in this Nakshatra always look younger than their actual age. Dhanishta born are intelligent, versatile and like to keep themselves engaged in a variety of tasks. They are straight minded, do not like to harm others and in turn, expect that nobody should harm them. But the practical life is not that simple. So when the reality strikes, these people get angry and are determined to crush the offender with all their might. But they also have the wisdom to wait for the best opportunity to avenge the damage. If that is not possible in the immediate future, they keep in mind their task and carry it out at an appropriate time.

These people are well educated. For those born in the sign Kumbha (Aquarius), scientific inquiry is the way of life. For them, the profession is also mostly related with science. Earnings through profession/service assume a significant part of their income only around the age of 30 years. Good academic record, street-smart intelligence and a knack for administration make these people an ideal candidate for holding public offices.

A Dhanishta born is seldom happy with his relatives. But his wife knows how to deal with the troubled relations and make the matters simple. These people need to take proper care of their health, as they tend to neglect their health problems till they reach the extreme stage.

Male Features

1. Physical features: Normally, the native has a lean body with lengthy figure. In exceptional cases there are some natives with stout figure.

2. Character and general events: He will be expert in all the works he undertakes. He has extremely intelligent mind and all-round knowledge. He does not like to cause any trouble to others "Manasa, Vacha or Karmana" (by mind, by word or by work). However, it has been seen that he has religious spirit. He always like to live with his own caliber and effort. He dislikes to express his disagreement with others till the last moment. Most of us are probably aware of the elephant's revenge. That is, if any person or any animal cause trouble to the elephant, the elephant waits for an opportunity to bounce upon them. In the same way Dhanishta born also waits for an opportunity to bounce upon others with whom he has to settle a score.

3. Education, sources of earning/profession: A number of horoscopes examined by me have revealed that most of the scientists and historians are born in this Nakshatra. Since there is an inherent talent of keeping secret, the native is quite suitable for secret service, private secretaries to the senior executives. Whatever may be his academic background his intelligence is beyond questionable. In argument also he is much ahead of others. Hence lawyers profession is the best for him. Normally, period from 24th years of age onwards will show progress in the earning field. Since he will be engaged in the profession or trade where he has to trust others, he should be very very careful before putting trust on others.

4. Family life: In the family circle also he will be the uppermost administrator. His relatives will cause a lot of embarrassment and problems. He is more inclined to his brothers and sisters. He will have ample inherited property subject to the placement of planets in beneficial position. He cannot have much benefit from his in-laws. But this drawback will be nullified due to the presence of good qualities in his wife. His wife will be an incarnation of "Lakshmi" (goddess of wealth). To be more specific, any improvement in the financial field of the native will be only after the marriage.

5. Health: His health may not be so good. Even then he will not think of his own health. It is only when the disease reach at the peak he starts finding remedy. Slightest improvement out of the severest disease will drag him to the work field. He is prone to whooping cough, anemia etc. However, he will not be on a prolonged state of illness.

Female Natives

Females born in this Nakshatra will also enjoy more or less the same results mentioned above.

1. Physical features: Handsome and ever sweet seventeen i.e. she will look very young even while she crosses her forty. An inviting appearance with thick lips. In some cases, ugly appearance due to teeth protruding outside the lips have been noticed.

2. Character and general events: She has great aspirations in life and is a spendthrift. A modest and liberal disposition. She has sympathy towards the weak. As in the case of Shravana born, she is an enforcement master. She should curb this tendency for a congenial atmosphere in the home front.

3. Education, sources of earning/profession: Mixed nature of talents have been noticed in the field of education. Some are interested in literature and some in sciences. Hence usually, teachers or lecturers or research fellows.

4. Family life: She will be an expert in the house-hold administration.

5. Health: Her health will not be good. She is prone to anemia, uterus disorders of acute intensity and spoiled blood.

#Dhanishta #Nakshatra is the 23d Nakshatra as per Hindu #astrology.

Dhanishta is ruled by the eight #Vasus, the Gods of abundance that rule the earthly sphere. #Aditi (Daughter of King Daksha) with sage Kashyapa (Son of Marichi) had 33 sons who are referred as Devas. Twelve are called Aditya including Surya that form 12 months of Hindu calendar, eleven are called Rudras and eight are called Vasus. Aditi (Sanskrit: अदिति “limitless”) is mother of the gods (devamata) and all twelve zodiacal spirits from whose cosmic matrix, the heavenly bodies were born. She may be seen as a feminized form of Brahma and associated with the primal substance (mulaprakriti) in Vedanta. She is mentioned nearly 80 times in the #Rigveda.

The deities which preside over Dhanishta are the eight Vedic devas known as the Vasus, personifications of the cosmic energies: Agni, Prithvi, Vāyu, Antariksha, Āditya, Dyaus, Chandramas, and Nakṣatrani. Vasu translates as “good,” “superb,” or “beneficent,” as well as “wealthy” or “possessing property,” and so all these things, as well as valuable naturally occurring materials, are associated with Dhaniṣṭha. The Vasus are assigned to Dhaniṣṭha in their role of energy sources. For example, charity and a capacity to control or command are also innate features of the Vayus and impart appropriate characteristics on Dhaniṣṭha.

Each Vasu is a #star (sun) and each has a special domain on the different realms of existence. None of them can exist along with materialism. They are the very antithesis of matter. Dhaniṣṭha, therefore completely yet gradually eliminates material attachments from the individual and enables the soul to express itself freely and directly.

#DHANISHTA #NAKSHATRA
The Rhythm of Wealth & Fortune
in the Stars
Shiva is the one who lives
in the heart of all beings.
On the night of Shivaratri he unifies with Shakti.
Tantric practitioner gives honour
to the the innermost Yogin
of enlivened Kundalini
upon this night of great union.
– Boonath

The great night of Shiva is upon us. Maha Shivaratri literally means ‘the great night of Shiva’. Shiva is the first and last and always Yogi. Adinath is his name that means ‘the endless origin of Yog’.

Upon this night,
Shiva unifies with Shakti
and brings the feminine & masculine forces
into equilibrium.

The annual night of Shiva presents the soul upon earth with a vortex of energies that open the Chakras to the magical and healing force of Kundalini Shakti. The Nakshatra (lunar constellation) upon the night of Shivaratri is Dhanishta. Dhan means ‘wealth, abundance’, Nishta implies rhythmic and constant flow.

This is the star of continuous, musical flow of wealth. It is indeed a star of music and has as its symbols, musical instruments. Dhanishta Nakshatra is a Mangala (Mars) ruled Nakshatra and potently brings us the lessons of wealth and fortune through the secret of rhythmic flow.

It is ruled by the Vasus, the 8 elemental deities who manifest material abundance and the ability in the arts involving tangible earthly rhythm – such as music or dance. It is a royal Nakshatra that brings abundance and fortune from the inner levels of being into manifestation.

The animals of this Nakshatra are the lion and the peacock, the lion is famously called the Jungle ruler. The peacock is a bird that is wealthy in its feathers of beauty, it can’t be denied.

Rhythm
Catching the Secret of Wealth

The symbol of Dhanishta Nakshatra is the drum of Shiva and the flute. This is a Nakshatra that is heavily concerned with musicality and rhythm. The Dhumaru is the drum of Shiva and is the ever changing rhythmical heartbeat of creation.

The secret of wealth
on all levels of being
is rhythm.

To know one’s own particular rhythm is to know how to apply ones life forces to the best function. When we don’t acknowledge our own particular rhythm then we deplete ourselves, and so, the secret of Dhanishta is to learn to honour one’s own rhythm. When we honour our own rhythm then we are able to observe the rhythms around us and learn about the keys to wealth and musical living.

Dhanishta brings #divine #music to us, but obviously we have to set up a receptive rhythm to catch it. Where Shravan Nakshatra gives us listening and hearing, the following Nakshatra – Dhanishta… gives us something grand to listen to.

If we are out of tune with our own rhythm then our view of all rhythms is warped – and so the lesson that Dhanishta brings to us is to learn to pay attention to our own rhythm – so that it may become a receptive instrument to the sounds of infinity.

This is challenging because our personal rhythm is not a fixed thing and is subject to fluctuations and change, so we may not even be able to rely on our ‘own rhythm’ as a thing that is constant. This ever changing nature of rhythm relates to Shiva profoundly.

#Nataraj
Dancer of #Celestial #Rhythm

The odyssey of our eternal dance of being is told through the stars in the story of Shiva and his union with Shakti. The dance of Shiva is the dance of destruction that is the secret dance of rhythm. Shiva destroys all past instances and this gives the power to face the ever changing rhythms of the drumbeat of life.

Nataraj is the name of Shiva as the celestial dancer. His dance is a dance that is so fluid and unfixed that it is ever ready and able to dance with the infinity of celestial tides in the infinite cosmology of being. Nataraj the celestial dancer is the grand overseer of this constellation. He is the lord of rhythm and dance, and is famously known for his dance of destruction.

Shiva has the ability to match each and every move of Shakti like no other can. Shakti has an endless infinity of expressions and the power of Shiva can follow them all. The Stars of Dhanishta are clustered in the constellation Delphinus, this is the Dolphin constellation.

Dhanishta Nakshatra is a star of music and rhythm it is to be remembered. We can see that the dolphin is a creature of profound musicality. It is well known that the Dolphin communicates through incredibly subtle sound frequencies and rhythms.

Dhanishta has another name which is Shravishtha – that which is devoted to Shravan. Shravan is the previous Nakshatra that rules subtle listening and hearing. This following Nakshatra of Dhanishta implies that one learns the art of being devoted to listening – devoted to Shravan

May we gain the ear to dance with the rhythm of nature, and learn to move with the subtlest frequencies of life.

The #star of #Chittra #Nakshatra is called #Spica. This is the brightest star in the constellation of #Virgo. The stars of Virgo form the reclining figure of a woman, with Spica as the left hand of the Virgin – this yoga practice deriving from the left hand path of Tantra.

Spica is most visible in the sky in the northern hemisphere, in the months March to July. The Spica star can be seen well in the triangle formed by the 3 bright stars of Arcturus, Spica and Regulus. The base of the triangle is made by Spica and Regulus.

Virgo is the biggest constellation in the zodiac. It is most visible after sunset in the month of May. As the largest zodiac constellation the Sun takes 44 days to pass through it, longer than for any other constellation. The constellation of Virgo is also notable as it has 20 stars with known planets, which is more than any other constellation.

The long transition of the sun through the Virgo constellation gives the jewel of the Spica star an extended period to harness the solar force. Chittra is an active Nakshatra of radiance, many thousands of times brighter than the sun.

#Mangala (planet #Mars) is the ruling planet of Chittra. Mars rules the solar-plexus Chakra as the active expression of its energy.

The Manipura chakra, as the solar-plexus is called, translates as the Jewel in the City. This is the fire in the belly that inclines us to action. The red planet of Mars is the fire of action that flows in the blood. The desire and impulse of action is put into creative use by the force of Chittra. Chittra is the second of the Mars ruled Nakshatras. All the Mars ruled Nakshatras deal with the skill of transforming and refining the elements of life.

How we use
and channel our life force
is the initiation
of the Mars ruled Nakshatras.

#Mrgasirsa is the first Mars ruled Nakshatra that gives the initiation of cultivation and gathering Shakti. Chittra comes next and gives the initiation of shaping the Jewel of life with the Shakti we have preserved through the first initiation. The final Mars ruled Nakshatra is #Dhanishta, which teaches us the further lesson of caring for the radiance of the jewel by honouring the law of rhythms.

These Nakshatra’s are dealt with in more detail in past blogs entries, which you may refer to here.
http://healinginthewillows.com/mrgasirsa/
http://healinginthewillows.com/dhanishta-nakshatra/

We can start to see how #Nakshatras fit together when we consider them as a group under their planetary rulership, in this case Mars. By considering them as a group, we may get a deeper insight into the lessons they present to us.

Chittra Nakshatra travels between Kanya (Virgo) and Tula (Libra) and brings the creative earthly juices of the Virgin to an awareness of the opposites. The balance of force is revealed by Tula, which means to weigh. When we consider our life force carefully, we become aware of the options we have. Creation is a process of weighing things up and applying the weight of our life force with consideration.

The creativity
that Chittra Nakshatra teaches us
is one of consideration,
calculation and implementation
of our energies.

Chittra is the careful cutting and shaping of the facets of the jewel. This is a detailed use of creative force, that has power in considering the formations and outcomes of applied life force.

We see that Chittra is oftentimes symbolised by a pearl in an oyster. Like the delicate work of faceting a jewel, the creation of the pearl is a slow and gradual process. It is the intelligent and sober application of force. Chittra brings us the awareness of the jewel of our life-force. It is the pearl of great price. Carefully looking at where we cast our pearls is the teaching that the rays of this Star shines upon us here on earth.

The Virgin in the Cave
The Tale of Persephone

We see that the Ancient Greeks put the celestial codes of the constellation of Virgo into the story of Persephone. Persephone was a beautiful Virgin. Her light spring-like nature was the opposite of the underworld god, known by the name of Hades.

Hades fell in love with Persephone and, one day, while Persephone was gaily picking flowers in a lush meadow he left his dark underworld kingdom and came to the earth to abduct her.

The earth became barren until Persephone found release from his cavernous clutches. But Persephone was bound to return to the underworld, upon account of a trick played on her by Hades.

Her return to earth corresponds to the months of abundance, when the Constellation of Virgo is most visible in the night sky. The season of spring occurs when the constellation of Virgo appears in the early evening above the horizon. When she’s no longer there, it is winter. That is when Persephone returns to the underworld. From the Northern Hemispheres perspective, Virgos absence from the evening sky is found in late autumn, winter and early spring. Virgo’s reappearance in the sky at nightfall comes again with the rising season of spring.

The Celestial Architect
The Polarities of Creation

The God of Chittra Nakshatra is #Tvashta. He is the #celestial #Architect who transfers his inspiration and energy to us through his star Chittra.

Tvashta seems a bit multi-faceted himself. He appears complex at first glance. Tvashta has a dual form. One facet of Tvashta is Vishwakarma, who is the architect of the Devas.
We see, interestingly, that in regions of South India the crafters are known as the Vishwakarmas. The other facet of Tvashta, is Mayasur, who is the architect of the Asuras.

Both these faces of Tvashta deal with his skill in design, architecture, and crafting with creative force. As Vishwakarma, Tvashta creates forms that are diaphanous and creative. And as Mayasur he creates destructive forms coated in glamour and trickery. Tvashta, it can be seen, is the force and skill of the creative energy.

How is the creative force is wielded in our hands? As the life-force is released from the grip of unconsciousness, the range of possibility of creative force is liberated from limitation. The Tantric is a creative voyager who releases the skills of Tvashta by attempting to awaken from unconscious dreams.

One other noteworthy thing about Tvashta, is that he is one of the 12 Aditya’s. These are the deities that are assigned to each calendar month. The Aditya’s transport and give the teaching of the particular month that they rule over.

All the Aditya’s hold lotus flowers.

What is unique about Tvashta, is that his lotus flower, is the only one amongst the Aditya’s that is closed. This is a worthy symbol of meditation that reveals many meanings when pondered upon. Perhaps we might rather simply say that creativity requires a stage of introverting to gather force, before it is put to action. We see this principle at play in the creation of life in the womb.

When the introverted gathering of elixir is not honoured, then real creative force might very well de deficient. Creativity without elixir, might then come to be replaced by a predictable and creatively dead clock-work engine. When night falls, not only does a lotus close its petals, but it enters back into the waters from whence it came.

The stone and the Jewel
Channelling the Life-Force

Chittra Nakshatra is the star that brings us the teaching and blessing of channelling our life energies towards the creation of beauty. Someone who works with cutting and polishing diamonds is called a diamantaire. The skill of a diamantaire, encapsulates very much the quality that Chittra Nakshatra presents to us.

To become a diamantaire, requires long years of study into the science and art that is diamond polishing. Painstaking attention to detail and patience is required. The fine work of cutting and polishing is preceded by separating the diamond from the ore. Many hours are required to cut a diamond.

A diamond
can only be cut
by another diamond.

This fact is something worth pondering on, when considering the creative work of polishing the diamond of our lives. The diamantaire takes the rough diamond stone and with the magic of an alchemist, transforms of to a sparkling and mesmerising jewel.
Life energy can be used to launch a stone and create injury and destruction. But, the very same life force, can be channelled into the detailed work of artfully shaping the facets of a stone, and creating a jewel.

By the focus of our life energies, we can take a stone that was once a rough sharp object – perhaps able to cut the hand, and not particularly alluring – and shape it into a jewel of fascination and reflective beauty.

The word Chittra means radiant, shining, delicately-detailed, multi-layered, multi-faceted and lustrous. It is most appropriate that this star is symbolised by a Jewel.

Chittra also contains the word Chit, which means ‘pure awareness’ and could be seen as referring to the shining jewel of the soul. Chit is suffixed by Tra, in the name of this Nakshatra. Tra is derived from the Sanskrit word Tryate, and means to set free. So Chittra in this sense, translates as ‘the setting free of the jewel of pure awareness’.

A work of art, such as a painting, is referred to as Citr in Hindi. This is derived from the word Chittra. Again, this points to the principle of this star, to bring us the illumination to shape the jewel of our life. Chittra for this reason has come to be known as the star of carving the jewel.

What is the condition of our jewel? Is it in the workshop, with us sitting attentively at the desk? Or, has it fallen to the wayside, as we nurture concerns, other than the jewel of our life?

Chinnamasta
Pure Life-Force

Chinnamasta is the pure ruby red life force. She is the multifaceted jewel, that tells us of the possibilities of movements within the constellation of life. She shows us the options we have, of how to apply the life-force that we carry. She is the Vidya (wisdom) that meets us at the ‘tripple-crossroads’ of power.
In every movement of desire, we play either a passive or an active seat.

Chinnamasta is the seat between the two familiar ways. She is the teacher of transmitting and transmuting our life-force into sacred and spiritually potent action. Her jewel shines with the secret lustre of the union of two forces. Her Jewel is the meeting of polarities, and transmits the wisdom of sacred equilibrium. Her Jewel is the place where opposites and opposition are magically fused together.

When we hear the word equilibrium we might be prone to think of peace and wellbeing. But the equilibrium that Chinnamasta transports to us is a double sided balance and integrity, between the forces of rapturous chaos and poised awareness. She tears her head from her body, but she drinks of the middle stream of equilibrium force, without spilling a single drop from of the jewel coloured elixir of her life blood.

The word Dhanishta can be split into Dhan and Eshtha. Dhana means wealth, and Eshtha means appropriate. The literal meaning of the word #Dhanishtha is appropriate wealth.

#Dhanishta #Nakshatra in astrology is one of the Urdhvamukhi Nakshatras (or the Nakshatras, which have their mouths upwards). In these Nakshatras, things related to palaces, coronations, boundary walls, and tall structures can be auspiciously begun and performed.

Symbol: A Mrudhangam (Indian Drums)
The symbol for Dhanishtha is #Mardhala or #Mrudhangam. This is a kind of #drum. Mrudhangam is an indication that the baby’s hearing is fully developed. Additionally, the posture of a baby during this period is like Mrudhangam.

Deity: The #Ashtavasu
Dhanishtha’s deities are Ashtavasu. Vasu’s are the attendant deities of the #Vishnu. They are 8 elemental Gods. They include the 5 elements of the Panchamahabhootha.

The deity of Dhanishta Nakshatra is the Ashtavasus, the 8 Vasus.
Vasu means a ray of light. The 8 Vasus are Apah (Water), Dhruva (Pole Star), Dhara (Earth), Anila (Wind), Soma (Moon), Anala/Pavaka (Fire), Pratyusha (The Dawn) and Prabhasa (Splendour).
The yoni animal of this Nakshatra is the #female #lion.
The female lion is the prime hunter of the pride. A lion cannot be seen running and killing a deer or a buffalo, but only on rare occasions when he is alone and hungry would he be hunting for food.
It’s the female lion, who is the planner, hunter and provider of pride.
She is willing to put her life on the line for everyone in the group.
The male lions do have a job where they protect the pride, cubs and their ground.
Most of the hunting for the lioness takes place from dusk till dawn.
What a female lion does is what a Dhanishta native is meant to do. Regardless of one’s sex or gender, they become the hunter or the breadwinner.
They are fearless, competitive and protective. The spouse of a Dhanishta native will always be protecting the young children.
The symbolism of this Nakshatra is flute and drums, which shows such natives are always trained in some type of musical instrument.
The symbol also represents the rhythm of life.
It can be any rhythmic pattern or the flow or vibration of life, or even the rhythm of nerves.
It can be noticed that many people with this Nakshatra become great pulse readers because the pulse is the rhythm of our prana (breath), our life; hence Dhanishta natives can become great doctors.
Ashtavasus are the Gods of abundance that bring prosperity and wealth such as gold, jewellery, land, etc., into the earth plane.
The Ashtavasus can be connected with the 8 directions of space and hint at Vastushastra.
The lioness of this Nakshatra is in connection with Narasimhi, the consort of Narasimha avatar and one of the 8-mother Goddess or Ashta Matrikas.
Her shaking of mane could create chaos to the stars and planets.
She was born to pacify Lord Narasimha, connected with the planet Mars, who was born to protect his devotee Prahlada from the demon King Hiranyakashipu.
Bhishma, a central character in Mahabharata, could be connected to this Nakshatra as well because he was an incarnation of Prabhasa, one of the ashtavasus.
Prabhasa had stolen a cow with the help of his siblings (other Ashtavsus) and got cursed by the sage Vashishtha to be born on the Earth as mortals.
Vashishtha later reduced his curse effects by allowing other Ashtavsus except Prabhasa to leave the mortal world within a year.
Ganga, the river Goddess, promised to help Ashtavasus.
She became the wife of King Shantanu on the condition that he never said anything in her way.
The 7 children, the 7 Ashtavasus born to her, were drowned by Goddess Ganga in the river.
When the 8th child was born, Shantanu couldn’t bear it anymore and opposed his wife, who immediately left him, reminding him about his promise.
The 8th son, Prabhasa, was named Devarata later became Bhishma in the mortal form.
On the deathbed of arrows, Bhishma advised Vishnu sahasranama to the guilt-ridden Yudhishthira for having taken part in the Mahabharata, which caused death and destruction to many.
Bhishma was able to select his moment of death and left the Earth when Sun started Uttarayana, the northward motion in the sky.
The word Dhanishtha has the connotation of the word “Dhan” in it, which literally means wealth, and hence wealth-related themes could be seen with this Nakshatra.
Moreover, the stars of Dhanishtha Nakshatra form the diamond-shaped Delphinus constellation in the sky.
The Vasus, such as Agni (fire), Vayu (wind), etc., helped Lord Indra in his fight with the demons, and hence this Nakshatra can also indicate some type of fight, competition, and competitiveness in a person’s life.
The biggest part to take out from Bhishma’s mythology may be unsuitable for some readers, especially women under 40.
This Nakshatra causes either miscarriage or abortion.
Many charts with Moon in Dhanishtha show the mother dealing with miscarriages, or in a female’s chart, the native had a miscarriage.
Jupiter aspecting the 5th house or Moon may alleviate effects to some extent and lower the chances of such mishappenings.
Whenever miscarriage happens for a woman, they must know there was a spiritual yogi, saint etc., who was trying to come into the womb to pay their karma and leave back to the astral world.
Knowing that the female native was giving birth to some great yogi is kind of a silver lining on this event.
This Nakshatra is the Nakshatra connected strongly with Bhishma pitamaha from Mahabharata.
Bhishma was the most feared and mightiest warrior in Mahabharata.
He was the man who couldn’t be defeated even by his guru Parshurama but was eventually defeated by his nephew Arjuna.
Dhanishtha is also linked with land, real estate and especially Vastushastra.
Dhanishtha natives are connected with real estate or have many investment properties.
Interest in Vastu was rare except for one big anomaly; they all had Vastu dosha in their home, as in misalignment of the floor plan, objects or colour causing some type of disharmony.
Bhishma had a blessing from his father Shantanu to decide his moment of death, and even after Arjun pierced his body countless times with arrows, he stayed alive until the war ended.
From Bhishma’s life, it can be seen that Dhanishtha natives are calm and will only bring fear when challenged.
They always take on fighting and combat training once in their life.
Dhanishtha natives of all ages love boxing, UFC fighting and wrestling, but more so, they can also be seen having other-dimensional experiences as celestial beings.
Dhanishtha native will also have major karma with marriage.
They are either not interested in marriage, or they desperately want marriage/relationship but attract partners providing a lack of partnership security.
They will also have to fight a major war in their life, either in court, personal combat or society.
Attributes of Dhanishta Nakshatra in Astrology

Vasu is the deity of this star. It is the giver of wealth, precious stones, valuable articles, gold, opulence, etc.
Asthavasu derives from Ganga. The virtues of these Gods are associated with this star.
Natives born under this star are hostile to women because they lack adequate sexual power.
The native will be sexually weak. It has to be noted that Shani himself is an eunuch.

#Dhanishta #Nakshatra, ruled by the deity Ashta Vasu, is regarded as one of the luckiest constellations. People born under Dhanishta often achieve their dreams, especially in their careers, at a remarkably young age. Unlike the common belief that they are influenced by Mars, they tend to steer clear of controversies and situations that could worsen a negative scenario. Conflict and stirring up trouble are simply not their style.

These individuals are known for their kindness, never uttering a harsh word or resorting to sarcasm or taunts, whether in front of someone or behind their back. While they avoid confrontation, they have an exceptional memory for any wrongs done to them and may bide their time for years seeking revenge. Engaging in arguments is not something they enjoy; they’d rather keep the peace Dhanishta Nakshatra.

The symbols associated with Dhanishta Nakshatra, the drum and flute, reflect the love for music and dance that people born under this Nakshatra often possess. They are naturally inclined towards musical talents and abilities. The drum and flute, as musical instruments, also symbolize their understanding of the greater rhythms of life and the Universe, and their ability to live life at their own unique pace.

However, the hollowness within the drum and flute could signify a sense of emptiness or void in the lives of these individuals, which may sometimes lead to challenges in their relationships Dhanishta Nakshatra.

Sacred Energy Vortex
#Korukkai #Sri #Pushpavalli #Samedha Sri #Brahma #Gnanpureeswarar #Temple

The temple with most significance to Dhanishta nakshatra is situated in Korukkai near Kumbakonam in Tamil Nadu, India. Lord Shiva manifested as Sri Brahma Gnanapureeswarar and offered spiritual knowledge to Lord Brahma at this temple. The grace of Sri Brahma Gnanpureeswarar has the ability to assist children with concentration and success in their education. Sri Brahma and his consort, Saraswati, visit this holy temple on a regular basis.

The placement of the Nandhi, the sacred bull, is the most significant aspect of Korukkai. It is adjacent to, rather than facing, Sri Brahma Gnanpureeswarar. People who have made serious mistakes or who lack peace of mind can offer a garland of nuts to the Nandhi. After offering the garland, the person may whisper their problems in the ear of the sacred bull and ask for a remedy. Further more, it is auspicious to offer a garland, betel leaves, nuts, turmeric, or a saree to poor women at the temple. The blessings of Lord Shiva, Goddess Parvati and Nandhi bring enormous benefits to those who visit this temple. Lord Shiva can remove financial obstacles and is also helpful for relationship difficulties. It is especially beneficial to visit Korukkai when Pradosham occurs on a Saturday.

This temple is sacred for those born under Dhanistha nakshatra as this star has many spiritual connections to divine knowledge. It is favorable to visit the temple during AavaniAvittam (August 15 -September 14) when it is customary for people to wear sacred threads. Walking around the sacred shrine increases one’s spiritual energy. Those born under different stars will also experience benefits if they perform an abhishekam and archana to Sri Brahma Gnanapureeswarar at Korukkai.

Dhanishta nakshatra natives, your #incense is made with the #herb #Kejari as prescribed by the Vedas.

Burning one of these pillars is like performing a mini fire ritual for that particular star formation. For your specific Birthstar, you will be able to connect inwardly to your planet of energetic origin and gain support with the positive aspects that are you.

Burning the other Nakshatra pillars on that specific Nakshatra day will tune you in with the favorable activities with that star’s energy for the day. It is recommended to at least burn your own personal Nakshatra pillar daily to stay connected to your essence. It is advantageous to burn the days Nakshatra pillar as well.

#Dhanishta #Nakshatra is the 23rd of 27 #nakshatras. If you were born when the #moon was between 23:20 degrees #Capricorn-6:40 degrees #Aquarius
#Sanskrit Name: धनिष्ठा (Dhanishta) comes from the Sanskrit words धन (wealth) and तिष्ठति (reside). One meaning of Dhanishta is “the #rich one,” indicating #good #fortune, resilience, and a strong character.

Strengths
Dhanishta natives are honest and straightforward individuals. They exude confidence and are able to overcome any obstacles that come between them and their desired objectives. They are resourceful, capable, and highly intelligent. These qualities make them excellent problem-solvers — ideal people to have around no matter what the situation.

Those born under the star of Dhanishta enjoy adventure. The thrill of entering the unknown and meeting unexpected challenges head on is a joy for them. They are good-hearted souls who take pleasure in giving to others. They do not hesitate to go out of their way to help a friend in need, or even a stranger.

You are musically-inclined and multi-talented. You have many aspirations in life, and you will somehow find a way to fulfill many or even all of them, especially if you align yourself with the blessings of God.

Dhanishta Careers
Persons born in Dhanishta can do well in careers in the performance or entertainment fields, or which give them an opportunity to exercise their inborn helping nature.

Some ideal professions include:

Musician, dancer, performer, or entertainer
Doctor, nurse, herbalist, or healer
Non-profit worker or philanthropist
Real estate agent, salesperson, or investor
Weaknesses
Dhanishtas’ fortunate, confidence, and outgoing nature can sometimes lead them to become egotistical. You should be careful to actively cultivate a humble and compassionate character. Otherwise you may become overly opinionated, argumentative, and boastful. These traits can alienate friends and community members who care about your well-being.

Dhanistha natives can be inconsiderate of others feelings and needs. They may even resort to violence if opposed by others. They can be quite ruthless if their patience is pushed to its breaking point. In addition, their fearlessness may cause them to behave recklessly, indulging in intoxicants, narcotics, and other dangerous substances. They may become addicted to any one of these substances if they do not practice temperance and self-control.

You value getting things done more than anything else, and as a result, you may resort to deceit or dishonesty. However, bear in mind that the end does not always justify the means. Actions have consequences, often far worse than we initially imagine. The satisfaction offered by a noble, moral life is far greater than anything fame or wealth can provide.

You may be self-serving. You genuinely enjoy helping others, but sometimes there is a hidden, selfish motive. You have a difficult time truly setting aside your selfish interests and sacrificing for the sake of another. Of course, this is something many people struggle with.

Characteristics of Dhanishta Nakshatra in Astrology
The deity of Dhanishta Nakshatra is the Ashtavasus, the 8 Vasus.
Vasu means a ray of light. The 8 Vasus are Apah (Water), Dhruva (Pole Star), Dhara (Earth), Anila (Wind), Soma (Moon), Anala/Pavaka (Fire), Pratyusha (The Dawn) and Prabhasa (Splendour).
The yoni animal of this Nakshatra is the #female #lion.
The female lion is the prime hunter of the pride. A lion cannot be seen running and killing a deer or a buffalo, but only on rare occasions when he is alone and hungry would he be hunting for food.
It’s the female lion, who is the planner, hunter and provider of pride.
She is willing to put her life on the line for everyone in the group.
The male lions do have a job where they protect the pride, cubs and their ground.
Most of the hunting for the lioness takes place from dusk till dawn.
What a female lion does is what a Dhanishta native is meant to do. Regardless of one’s sex or gender, they become the hunter or the breadwinner.
They are fearless, competitive and protective. The spouse of a Dhanishta native will always be protecting the young children.
The symbolism of this Nakshatra is flute and drums, which shows such natives are always trained in some type of musical instrument.
The symbol also represents the rhythm of life.
It can be any rhythmic pattern or the flow or vibration of life, or even the rhythm of nerves.
It can be noticed that many people with this Nakshatra become great pulse readers because the pulse is the rhythm of our prana (breath), our life; hence Dhanishta natives can become great doctors.
Ashtavasus are the Gods of abundance that bring prosperity and wealth such as gold, jewellery, land, etc., into the earth plane.
The Ashtavasus can be connected with the 8 directions of space and hint at Vastushastra.
The lioness of this Nakshatra is in connection with Narasimhi, the consort of Narasimha avatar and one of the 8-mother Goddess or Ashta Matrikas.
Her shaking of mane could create chaos to the stars and planets.
She was born to pacify Lord Narasimha, connected with the planet Mars, who was born to protect his devotee Prahlada from the demon King Hiranyakashipu.
Bhishma, a central character in Mahabharata, could be connected to this Nakshatra as well because he was an incarnation of Prabhasa, one of the ashtavasus.
Prabhasa had stolen a cow with the help of his siblings (other Ashtavsus) and got cursed by the sage Vashishtha to be born on the Earth as mortals.
Vashishtha later reduced his curse effects by allowing other Ashtavsus except Prabhasa to leave the mortal world within a year.
Ganga, the river Goddess, promised to help Ashtavasus.
She became the wife of King Shantanu on the condition that he never said anything in her way.
The 7 children, the 7 Ashtavasus born to her, were drowned by Goddess Ganga in the river.
When the 8th child was born, Shantanu couldn’t bear it anymore and opposed his wife, who immediately left him, reminding him about his promise.
The 8th son, Prabhasa, was named Devarata later became Bhishma in the mortal form.
On the deathbed of arrows, Bhishma advised Vishnu sahasranama to the guilt-ridden Yudhishthira for having taken part in the Mahabharata, which caused death and destruction to many.
Bhishma was able to select his moment of death and left the Earth when Sun started Uttarayana, the northward motion in the sky.
The word Dhanishtha has the connotation of the word “Dhan” in it, which literally means wealth, and hence wealth-related themes could be seen with this Nakshatra.
Moreover, the stars of Dhanishtha Nakshatra form the diamond-shaped Delphinus constellation in the sky.
The Vasus, such as Agni (fire), Vayu (wind), etc., helped Lord Indra in his fight with the demons, and hence this Nakshatra can also indicate some type of fight, competition, and competitiveness in a person’s life.
The biggest part to take out from Bhishma’s mythology may be unsuitable for some readers, especially women under 40.
This Nakshatra causes either miscarriage or abortion.
Many charts with Moon in Dhanishtha show the mother dealing with miscarriages, or in a female’s chart, the native had a miscarriage.
Jupiter aspecting the 5th house or Moon may alleviate effects to some extent and lower the chances of such mishappenings.
Whenever miscarriage happens for a woman, they must know there was a spiritual yogi, saint etc., who was trying to come into the womb to pay their karma and leave back to the astral world.
Knowing that the female native was giving birth to some great yogi is kind of a silver lining on this event.
This Nakshatra is the Nakshatra connected strongly with Bhishma pitamaha from Mahabharata.
Bhishma was the most feared and mightiest warrior in Mahabharata.
He was the man who couldn’t be defeated even by his guru Parshurama but was eventually defeated by his nephew Arjuna.
Dhanishtha is also linked with land, real estate and especially Vastushastra.
Dhanishtha natives are connected with real estate or have many investment properties.
Interest in Vastu was rare except for one big anomaly; they all had Vastu dosha in their home, as in misalignment of the floor plan, objects or colour causing some type of disharmony.
Bhishma had a blessing from his father Shantanu to decide his moment of death, and even after Arjun pierced his body countless times with arrows, he stayed alive until the war ended.
From Bhishma’s life, it can be seen that Dhanishtha natives are calm and will only bring fear when challenged.
They always take on fighting and combat training once in their life.
Dhanishtha natives of all ages love boxing, UFC fighting and wrestling, but more so, they can also be seen having other-dimensional experiences as celestial beings.
Dhanishtha native will also have major karma with marriage.
They are either not interested in marriage, or they desperately want marriage/relationship but attract partners providing a lack of partnership security.
They will also have to fight a major war in their life, either in court, personal combat or society.

The best remedy for Dhanishtha natives is to have a musical instrument in their home like drums, tabla or a flute.
These musical items cannot be for decoration and should work as a real instrument.
Having musical instrument in the home will bring rhythm to life along with wealth.
The most important remedy is to never make a promise or give your word to someone unless you can 100% fulfill it.
Do not say I will do this for you and forget about it. One way or the other, this lifetime or the other, you will have to fulfill that promise.
Do understand when you do fulfill a promise you pay highest of debts in your karmic web of life; so do not avoid but start from small promises before jumping the gun and saying you are the only person I will marry etc, or will give you a promotion.

Remedies for Dhanishta Nakshatra in Vedic Astrology

Quality of Dhanishtha Nakshatra
Dhanishtha is a chara Nakshatra, which means when something requires movement, this Nakshatra would work best like moving from one house to the other, purchasing land, sending something out for delivery, shifting office, arranging or buying furniture for your home.
Caste of Dhanishtha Nakshatra
The caste of Dhanishta Nakshatra is the servant. These are servants who only serve the highest of dharma and truth.
They are soldiers, boxers, fighters and medical professionals who have certain deeper reasons to fight the good fight.
It can be seen that most famous boxers were bullied and abused during their childhood by other kids.
They feel that by being the best boxers, they are giving hope to other kids who may feel the fear of going out and getting harassed.
Dhanishtha is there to serve for dharma, whatever their dharma might be.
They need to fight for the lineage and their pure physical presence.
They are a complete impediment of the human body and know what the human body should be used for: which is protecting and serving.
Sound of Dhanishtha Nakshatra
Gaa- pada 1, Gee- pada 2, Gu- pada 3, Gay- pada 4, sound has an extremely important role to play with Nakshatra.
Everything we do, say, buy, wear, drive has a name attached to it known as brand.
One must look at their chart with an accurate time of birth and see where the Nakshatra of Dhanishtha is in their chart, which means where is the sign of Capricorn/Aquarius.
If someone is with Leo ascendant, then the 6th house would be Capricorn, and 7th house would be Aquarius; when using such brands or name that starts with such sounds would be beneficial for marriage, business, fame, paying off debts, dealing with enemies, diseases and litigations.
Depending upon the pada and the problem, a person should focus on such sounds.
