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
Spread from 23’20” in Capricorn (Makar) up to 6’40” in Aquarius (Kumbha).
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.
The native of the star seldom marries or marriage is difficult for him; if married, conjugal relation is seldom happy.
Description of Dhanishta Nakshatra in Vedic Astrology Treatise
According to Hora Sara: The native with Dhanishta as birth Nakshatra will be wealthy, liberal in donation, courageous, lose his wife, be happy in foreign countries, be a liar, be talkative, and like dancing and singing.
According to Jataka Parijata: If a native is born in the star Dhanishta, he will be credulous, wealthy, plump in the thighs and the neck, and joyful.

#Dhanishtha #Nakshatra

#Characteristics male
Males born in Dhanishtha Nakshatra are believed to be intelligent with good work ethics. They love to learn and gather knowledge. Hence, whichever job they decide to choose for themselves, they are going to ace it. Dhanishta males give much importance to their ethical values and will try to avoid any forms of controversy, which might affect others. They will never, in any way, neither with their words nor action, hurt someone consciously. They will always stay away from arguments unless there is no other choice. These males are believed to be naturally religious and like to stay in their comfort zone, hanging out with the same friends and doing the same activities. If they are ever wronged, they will never forget. As they are very patient, they will wait for the right time to take their revenge.

Profession male
Dhanishta nakshatra males are high-achieving people. Because of their thirst for knowledge and intelligence, professions like being a historian or even a scientist will be most suitable for them. They can also work at an intelligence agency or be a private secretary for big businessmen, if that fancies them, as they are very capable of keeping secrets no matter how big the secret is. These males are more advanced than their peers when it comes to intellectuality and hence get success faster than others. Their career will flourish after the age of 24. Although they should be careful in their work while trusting their colleagues even if it is required for them to trust.

Compatibility male
Males of this nakshatra will have extreme luck when it comes to their spouses. Their wives will be like the incarnation of goddess Lakshmi and will bring very good fortune to them. They will have the upper hand when it comes to the family role but they will have a very good relationship with their siblings. There might come instances where their relatives will create problems for them, and they might not have the best relationship with their in-laws. But nothing too serious to be of concern.

Health male
As per where health is concerned, males of this nakshatra will not always feel good physically. As they do not take much care of their health and only seek help only when there is no other option, they will have to suffer from illnesses such as cold, cough, or anaemia.

Characteristics female
Dhanishta nakshatra females are kind-hearted and good-natured people. Just like the Dhanishta males, they too are very intelligent and high achieving people and because of their high ambitious nature, they will easily get jobs where there is good money. But with that, they are also spendthrifts and love to splurge on themselves and their close ones from time to time. They can also be called an empath as they can feel the pain of the unfortunate ones and will love to indulge in charity work. These females will have a dominant nature in general but they stifle it for their family’s welfare.

Profession female
Females of this nakshatra can choose anything as their profession as they can adjust to all kinds of situations and have knowledge of everything. These females can do jobs that are suitable to men as well as women because they are somewhat multitalented and can adapt to various scenarios effortlessly. They can either go for a teaching job as they love to learn and share knowledge, or they can choose to work in the literature field as they are also good with words. Since there is no boundary to their interests, they can also go for a profession related to science.

Compatibility female
Dhanishta nakshatra females have a good sense of family importance. They are naturally accustomed to maintaining harmony among the family members. Because of their dominant nature, chances are that they will be the ones to make the important decisions in the family and they will be very good at managing family affairs.

Health female
Just like the Dhanishta Nakshatra males, these females are also very careless when it comes to taking care of themselves. They hardly go for regular checkups and try to avoid taking medicines as much as possible. Because of that, there are chances that they will have to go through many health problems such as anaemia, cough or fever, blood-related problems, or uterus disturbance.

#Dhanishtha #Nakshatra spans 23º20′ Capricorn – 6º40′ Aquarius. Dhanishtha Nakshatra’s deities are the #Eight #Vasu #Devas, the beneficial influences of nature. The Eight Vasus are Sun, Moon, Water, Fire, Earth, Stars, Sky and Space (Cosmos).

In this Nakshatra we can find great potential for abundance and prosperity, fortune through travel and being away from home.

Dhanishtha is symbolized by the Mridanga or Tabla – the drum. It gives the wish and ability to dance to ones own rhythm and succeed through ones own effort.

Dhanishtha is one of the Nakshatras that offer the solution or remedy in its symbolism.

To work with this Nakshatra you may chose

A regular practice of #mantra meditation, working with Sacred Sound
Playing the #drum (can also be a flute and by extension singing bowl, #hollow instruments that make sound)
Join a drumming circle that creates a sense of community
A practice of meditation that grounds in solitude practices
Connecting to nature – spending time outdoors, start-gazing

The combination of Dhanishtha’s planetary rulership, #Mars, and its position in two Saturn ruled signs, Capricorn and Aquarius, will give the courage to face trials and the patience to overcome them.

This happens to be a good nakshatra for travel, going on adventures, purchasing vehicles or other form of transportation, going with the flow, starting new ventures, change of career or residence, setting theories into practice, or to start a pilgrimage.
