#Magha (மகம்): The Ancestral Throne
Placement: 00° 00’ to 13° 20’ of Leo

Element: #Water (Neer)

Pushkara Navamsha/Bhaga: NA

Gandanta #Nakshatra

This nakshatra exudes regal qualities and is strongly associated with kings, queens, monarchs, and royal societies. Located in the early degrees of the Leo zodiac, it is the brightest star in the Leo (Simha) constellation, which further emphasizes its close link to kingly attributes.

Symbol: The symbol of this nakshatra is the throne and throne room, representing power, high status, administration, and traditional values. The concepts of kingship, lions, and thrones are all interconnected with the idea of royalty, which is embodied by this nakshatra.

Deity: The deity associated with this nakshatra is #Pitris (The #Ancestors), as acquiring a kingly status or a throne requires a deep understanding of, and reverence for, past traditions. An individual's identity is closely linked to their familial lineage and ancestral history. In Puranas, Pitris are believed to reside in #Pitra #Loka after departing from Earth. According to tradition, the blessings of one's ancestors are essential for success, even before seeking the blessings of the gods.

Our direct ancestors, such as grandfathers, as well as the forefathers of all #humanity known as #Pitru Devatas, are the reason for our existence. According to the Ganesha Purana, Lord #Brahma was tasked with creating the Universe after emerging from Lord #Vishnu's naval. Initially, Brahma attempted to create the universe without first worshipping Lord #Ganesha, but his creations were flawed and incomplete. Upon realizing his mistake, Brahma sought out Lord Ganesha and began to worship him. Ganesha, who had been in deep #meditation, opened his eyes and saw Brahma there. He took Brahma into his hands and swallowed him, which shocked Brahma. However, inside Ganesha's stomach, the entire #universe had already been manifested. Ganesha then released Brahma and advised him to create the universe according to what he had seen. The creations that Brahma had initially made became the Pitru Devatas, as they were the reason for the universe being created in the way it was intended to be.

Guna: As the foremost among tamasic nakshatras, this nakshatra is focused on the pursuit of power and claiming what is rightfully one's own. Tamas, representing the pursuit of pleasure through material means, is a defining characteristic of this nakshatra.

Ruler: #Ketu is the ruler of this nakshatra and represents the impact of our past life actions and decisions. It is considered the most independent among the grahas because it lacks a head, and it is also the oldest among the navagrahas (nine planets), which explains why it holds the position of ruler for this nakshatra.

Animal: The animal associated with this nakshatra is the #male #rat. Like lions, rats tend to have large families and are known for their active sexual life. These intelligent and energetic rodents are also associated with Lord Ganesha, further emphasizing the connection with Ketu.

#Power: Magha is associated with the power of "Tyaga Shepani #Shakti", which refers to the soul's ability to disconnect from the physical body. This nakshatra guides the soul to Pitra Loka after death, serving as a facilitator for the transition between states. Ultimately, Magha represents the power to bring about a change in one's spiritual state.

General attributes: Individuals born under Magha nakshatra are likely to have a strong connection to their past, possessing a natural talent for remembering things for a long time. However, they may also become overly preoccupied with the past, potentially losing sight of the present moment. Spirituality can help guide them towards righteousness and dharma. The success of these individuals is closely linked to their ancestral lineage, and they may prioritize achieving high status over acquiring material wealth. With an active sex life and potential for a large family, connecting with their ancestors through prayers and offerings is believed to be key for success. As we see in the movie "Coco", the ancestral world and our world are connected, and blessings from the ancestors can be received through offerings. Ultimately, the body is merely a vessel for the soul, and these are general qualities associated with Magha nakshatra. Reader discretion is advised.

Specialties: Planetary placement in Magha is considered auspicious, as the blessings of Pitris are considered more significant than those of the Gods, and they are more easily pleased by offerings. Lord Saturn is also associated with the Pitris, and the crow is seen as the vehicle of Lord Saturn. Therefore, offering food to crows is considered an offering to the ancestors. Additionally, Amavasya tithi (new moon day) is also associated with the Pitris and Saturn.

#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.

The 19th #Nakshatra: #MOOLA.

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

Other aspects of this Nakshatra:
The Purushardha (life's vector or motivation) is #Kama.
Totem animal is #Dog (male).
Symbol - a #tail of #lion or #goad for elephants.
Devata (Deity) - #Nirritti or #Nairutti.
Dosha - #Vata.

This is the 19th Nakshatra of the zodiac, spanning from 00°-00' to 13°20' in the sign Dhanu. This is a Nakshatra owned by the node #Ketu, the entire span of this Nakshatra falls in the sign Dhanu, owned by the auspicious planet #Guru ( #Jupiter). While Guru is the planet of #wisdom, Ketu indicates hard work or #Tapasya. Hence the people born on this Nakshatra gain the wisdom and knowledge through their hard work. They have their own set of principles to live by.

Natives born on this Nakshatra are tall and have a good physical appearance. They are #peace #loving personalities, but will not hesitate to fight for what rightfully belongs to them. It is widely believed that a Moola born person becomes harmful to his/her parents. This is because the meaning of the word, Moola means the root. Hence the perception that a Moola born is harmful to his/her parents. But this is largely unjustified. A valuable piece of material lost on this Nakshatra will be found out by its owner, as the word Moola also means 'getting back to the square one'.

These people are good advisers. These people have multiple skills and hence, change of professions is a regular feature for these people. They are also good advisers and act as consultants.

Moola born are frequent spend thrifts, spending their money recklessly. But they do not resort to unfair means to earn money to support their expenditure. Moola people are also very devoted in their relations, be it friendship, marriage, partnership or employment. They are really devoted and continue with these relations even during the most trying times.

Out of all the family relations, these people do not enjoy good equation with their parents, while their married life is more or less satisfactory.

Male Natives

  1. Physical features: He has good physical appearance. He will have beautiful limbs and bright eyes. He will be the most attractive person in his family.

  2. Character and general events: He has a very sweet nature and is a peace loving person. He has a set principle in his life. There is a general fear about the persons born in Moola Nakshatra. It isn't like that always. He can stand against any adverse tidal wave. He has the capacity to penetrate that wave and reach the destination.

He is not bothered about tomorrow nor he is very serious about his own matters. He keeps all the happenings in the hands of god and become prey to optimism.

  1. Education, sources of earning/profession: He does not keep control of the balance of receipt and payment resulting in debt. He is the type of person who renders advice to others but not capable of keeping the same principles for his own use. This peculiar characteristic generally fits them for the profession of financial advise or religious advice.

Since he is skilled in several fields there will be frequent changes of profession or trade but stability in this direction seems to be a very rare phenomenon. Because of this inherent quality of frequent changes he is always in need of money. Moola born have a peculiar characteristic of mixing with his friends. It is quite natural that when expenditure is more than income and the native is not ready to earn anything by illegal mode the balance will always be in the negative. Hence it is advisable that he must keep away such friends and while he believes that all that is taking place on the earth is due to the blessings of HE, he should also try to be a little selfish and find a way to improve the inflow of income.

Out of all the 28 Nakshatras, I have come to a conclusion that these are the people who devote their entire energy with utmost sincerity to their employers as also to any persons who have kept faith or trust in Moola born. A deep study of the life of these persons has revealed some facts about their separate entity than other Nakshatra born i.e. some sort of internal force or some external force is briefing the natives in all the work they undertake.

He earns his livelihood in a foreign place. It is advisable that he must, as far as possible, try to get an opportunity either in the professional field or in the business field in a foreign land or country as he cannot have good luck in the native place; whereas he can have much better success in a foreign land.

As already mentioned above, he is capable of shining in all walks of life, particularly i the field of fine arts, as a writer and in the social work.

  1. Family life: Excepting a few cases, it is seen that Moola born cannot have any benefit from his parents whereas he is all self-made. His married life will be more or less satisfactory. He gets a spouse with all the requisite qualities expected from a good wife.

  2. Health: Probable problems he will be affected with are tuberculosis, isnofelia, paralytic attack or stomach problem. Whatever may be the nature of disease it will not be visible in his appearance or face as even when he is critically ill, his expression and the attraction of the face will not change. Normally it is seen that the native is not in the habit of taking care of his own health. With the result, some severe health problems can be noticed in his 27th, 31st, 44th, 48th, 56th and 60th age.

Once he is addicted to any drug it will be very difficult to control such addiction. Hence it must try to keep away from any material of intoxication.

Female Native

  1. Physical features: Medium complexion - neither black nor white or swarthy in hot countries. Reddish color in cold countries. Her principal teeth will not be close with great distance, wealthy sign.

  2. Character and general events: Mostly these natives are pure-hearted. However, obstinacy cannot be ruled out. Even on small matters she will be very much adamant. Since she lacks knack of dealing she quite often lands into problems.

  3. Education, sources of earning/profession: Mostly, Moola born females do not acquire much education. These females don't show any interest in studies. Most of these females spent more than two terms in the same standard or class. Ultimately they leave further education. The only exception is that if Jupiter is placed in opposition i.e. aspects or placed in Magha Nakshatra, the native may be a doctor or employed in an envious position i.e. such females will have excellent academic record and reach to the top.

  4. Family life: Females born in this Nakshatra, unlike the males, cannot enjoy full conjugal bliss. she will have a separated life, mainly due to the death of her husband or divorce. This result cannot be blindly applied as other planetary positions of favorable nature will, blindly applied as other planetary positions of favorable nature will, to a certain extent, nullify the bad effects. There may be delay in the marriage and also some hurdles. If the position of Mars is unfavorable she will have to face a lot of problems either from her husband or from children.

  5. Health: She is prone to rheumatism, lumbago, hip or back ache combined with pain in arms and shoulders.

The 10th #Nakshatra: #MAGHA.

The four quarters are ruled by:
Mangala (Mars) - the 1st quarter,
Shukra (Venus) - the 2nd quarter,

and Chandra (Moon) - the 4th quarter.

The Purushardha (life's vector) is #Artha.
Totem animal is #Rat (male).
Symbols: a #house or a #palanquin.

This is 10th Nakshatra of the zodiac, ruled by the node #Ketu and spanning from 00°00' to 13°20' in the sign Leo (Simha), ruled by Sūrya the #Sun. Ketu signifies Tapasya or relentless efforts, while Sūrya (Sun) signifies the royal charm and authority. Hence these people, in whatever capacity they work, try to achieve the highest positions through continuous efforts.

Magha born are constantly trying to upgrade their skills to achieve higher levels of authority. They respect the elders and their experience. They are aware of their traditions and cultural heritage. They are straight forward, do not like to harm others and expect that others should not harm them in any way. If this does not happen, they are ready to fight and avenge the damage.

Generating wealth and enjoying it at the cost of society is not in their blood. Even when they are reach, they tend to spend their money on activities that result in general welfare of the society. Because of this characteristic, these people are often failures if they undertake independent business, as reckless profit making is not in their blood. When they undertake any task, they will not leave any stone unturned till they achieve the success. They will work in the same way for others, while serving in an employee's capacity. But since they are not much interested in material wealth, an employee born in this Nakshatra will often shy away form asking for a higher salary or a higher bonus.

Generally males born in this Nakshatra get a good, trustworthy wife. Females born in this Nakshatra are religious minded and most devoted to their husbands. But the females born in this Nakshatra must be cautious to avoid any frictions in the family.

In case any of his action is responsible for hurting the feeling of others, he is immediately tries to rectify such action. He also does not like any person who makes hindrance or causes troubles to others. That is why there may be several hidden enemies in the native's life. He is hot-tempered. He cannot tolerate any action or activity which is not within the purview of truth. But this mental feeling leads him into a state of failures. Selfishness is a remote question for him. He does several things for the community or society not with the intention of getting anything in return but for mental satisfaction. This is the reason why the native is able to catch the eyes of the public.

  1. Education, sources of earning/profession: He will have many servants and great wealth. In the professional field he cannot attain much success in the material field as he is not business minded and mainly due to his straightforwardness. However, he will be a fitting example of sincerity and hard work. this inherent quality of sincerity and hard work do sometimes pay him some lift but not to the extent when we see the balance. He is bound to change his field of earning business. Once he takes a decision, he will stick to that decision. His dealings with his superiors and subordinates are very cordial and most technical. Hence he is able to be a link between his boss and subordinates.

  2. Family life: Most of the Magha born male natives will enjoy a happy and harmonious married life. He has to shoulder several responsibilities, to be more specific, burden of his co-borns.

#Mula #Nakshatra is the 19th Nakshatra as per Hindu #astrology in Scorpionis #constellation. The Mula constellation is at the center of the #MilkyWay #Galaxy ( #Galactic #Center). Mula (or Moola) Nakshatra is the #Vedic constellation which translates as “the #root.” It is that this location during winter solstice (Dec 23rd, 24th and 25th), the sun rises to its lowest point for people of northern hemisphere and appears as reborn from the darkness, symbolizing rebirth and the renewal of life. #Ancient Egyptians believed that the Sun God (RA) dies and is reborn during this time of winter solstice.

In Hindu mythology, Mula is ruled by #Nirriti, the #Goddess of #destruction. It has the power to ruin or destroy. Nirriti is the Hindu goddess of deathly hidden realms and sorrows, one of the dikpāla (“guardians of the directions”), representing the southwest. The name Nirriti has the meaning of “absence of ṛta”, meaning ‘disorder’, or ‘lawlessness’, specifically the absence of divine or cosmic order.

Nirṛtī is a #Ketu -ruled nakshatra in the #Vedicastrology, strongly associated with Kali in the form of Dhumavati. Nirṛtī is mentioned in a few hymns of the Rigveda, mostly to seek protection from her or imploring for her during a possible departure. In one hymn (X.59), she is mentioned several times. This hymn, after summing up her nature, also asks for her in departure from the sacrificial site.

In the #Atharvaveda (V.7.9), she is described as having golden locks.

In the Taittiriya Brahmana (I.6.1.4), Nirṛtī is described as dark, dressed in dark clothes and her sacrificial shares are dark husks.

In the sacred Shatapatha Brahmana (X.1.2.9), she is associated with the southwest quarter as her region. In the Vedas, Nirṛti represented the lightless realm of disorder that was held at bay by ṛta and the Vedic rituals. In later Hindu thought, this realm of non-existence was replaced with various hell realms, and Nirṛti was re-conceptualized as a deity- the daughter of Adharma (the embodiment of non-dharmic behavior) and mother of Naraka, a personification of the hell realms.

In Puranic story, Nirṛtī is known as Alakshmi and below is Srisukta mantra.

kṣhutpipāsāmalāṁ jyeṣṭhām alakṣmīṁ nāśayāmyaham,
abhūtimasamṛddhiṁ cha sarvāṁ nirṇuda me gṛihāt.

I shall venerate the elder sister of #Lakshmi, #Alakshmi, the embodiment of inauspiciousness and such evil as hunger, thirst, and the like for extinguishing such qualities from me. O Lakshmi! Drive out from my abode all misfortune and poverty.

#MAGHA #NAKSHATRA
THE STAR OF HERITAGE & POWER
Magha means power, majesty and rulership. This Nakshatra is our very heart of power. Magha gives us grand royal standing, and the power of rulership.

The power of rulership comes by embracing the dualisms within the Heart. When the Heart no longer divides, it takes the seat of power in all the realms of existence.

Magha is found in the constellation of Simha (Leo) and is actually the Star Alpha Leonis, which is the very heart of the Lion. This Star is also known by the name Regulus in Latin, which interestingly, means ‘the little king’.

Magha Nakshatra is often symbolised by a throne, representing our heritage and power. The seat of power of this star is the seat of our hereditary power. It concerns the power of our past and our ancestry.

This star
brings us to question
the actual meaning of power.
Magha’s power is the power of the Heart. The deepest lesson that this Star represents is opening to an all-encompassing Heart that unites all, and rejects nothing. This is the vision of the Yogins.

The Headless Past
We see that the planetary ruler of this Nakshatra is Ketu. This is the Southern node of the Moon that is responsible for lunar eclipsing.

Ketu concerns the past. He is the body without a head, and is the storehouse of the unconscious rudiment of our being.
When we work with Ketu, we go back into the past, where those forgotten and unseen elements of ourselves are brought into focus.
The Moon rules the mind and our psychic awareness.

#Ketu,
having the power
to eclipse the mind,
represents the storehouse
of personal history
that can impose itself
upon the vision of reality.
Afflictions of Ketu make one into a library of past manuscripts and transactions that obscure the flexible vision of ever changing reality.

When Ketu holds strong sway in our lives, we have family disputes, and we grind on the grudges of the past.
When we come back to the roots, we are in effect taking the journey to Ketu.

By addressing root issues we impact the fruit if our experiential life. The root distills the essence and sap, which in turn translates to the taste of the fruit. Tantric’s know this Sap to be Soma. Soma is made up of Tejas, Ojas and Prana: mental fire, fluidic potency and breath power, respectively. The balance of these constituents is a preoccupation of Tantra.

Taking The Seat of Power
Ancestral issues might present some of the dustiest shelves in our psychic library. Spiritual unrest in the energetic plane of the ancestors, spans concurrently across realms of time and space, and resonates and reverberates into the very fabric of our everyday life and being.

When we make peace
with our ancestral line,
we nourish the roots.
Without the roots,
their will be no fruit.
Having dispute with the family is a deep and subtle issue that is often the cause of much heartache and pain and anguish. Sometimes we enter into unconscious seats that have their origin on the subtle levels. It might not be easy to approach long held family issues.

The energies of the family heritage pass along the line until they are resolved in the great odyssey of destiny. Cutting off our roots might be one way to give the tree of our being space to grow. It is not uncommon that family members do not see eye to eye, but…

… to cut away our ancestral roots
out of anger, shame or denial
is to cut away
a great portion of our power.
Coming to accept the good, the bad and the ugly of our heritage is to take the seat of power.

#Healing the #Family Tree
All our relationships
are mirrors
of our ancestral dynamics.
Are connections are coloured by the energies of our line. Some of the patterns and footprints that we walk in are woven of ancestral twine. We may see how our children follow the paths that we ourselves transferred to them. We may see how we take on the energies of our elders too. The root is the undercurrent that can’t be cut away without affecting the fruit.
Reclaiming our power by standing for our heritage, is the first step in resolving the past.

“Can we resolve the past
Lurking jaws, joints of time?
The Base
To come of age in a dry place
Holes and caves.”

J. Morrison – American Prayer

When we redress the issues from a spiritual angle, we effect changes in the manifest realm. Merely holding a positive thought in mind is of little consequence in this pursuit. At the best, it might convince us that things are all well and good. The Tantric learns to employ all facets of their being in the spiritual pursuit of healing.

When we approach the spiritual world with a holy sense of purity we confine our psychic forces, and therefore confine their expression in our manifest life.

Angelic lightness
is just one facet of being,
but it is not the whole picture.
The pursuit of the holy stems from fear, denial and escapism to the true face of reality. The Goddess has many faces. Some of which are blinding, some of which are dark and consuming. To sit in the seat of power and to allow the full impact of feeling the effect of her ever changing gaze upon us is to be in reality.

To superimpose the Goddess’ face with a wished for visage, it to apply shadow and lipstick to the mirror. If we keep sticking things upon her mirror, we will create a fantasy and lose touch with reality. This is not the way spirituality is meant to be.

The #Ancestors
“Gorgeous girls are bound to meet
To talk of stars and kings and feet
Through the chromosomes of space and time
Me, I’m fast like bad infection
Gasping for my resurrection
Swear to me in times of war and stress

Seen his family with a shrinking smile
See his family at the happy games
Standing in the mouth of all that’s pure
Come straggling in your tattered remnants
You’ll come to me with tears and blame
I am the future
I’m tomorrow
I am the end“

D. Bowie – Earthling

The ancestors dwell on this star. They are known as the Pitris and are made up of guardian spirits and deceased ancestors.
Yogic culture works profoundly with ancestry. Our heritage is understood to be our root that yields the fruit of our being.

There are various rituals in Tantra for blessing the ancestors, and connecting to their blessings. Tantric work spans across many planes of existence. By connecting to the root energies resonating through time, we see how time is a concurrent thing, existing and moving together in sync, like the fingers of a wristwatch.

We release spirits and energy through the chromosomes of space and time, by our involvement in the spiritual side of life, when we approach the world of the ancestors by way of ritual.

There are many special days for Tantric ancestral rites. These are days, when the world of the ancestors is said to open up and be within view to the eye that looks.

Dark Moon days,
for example,
are times when the spirit world
intersects with the earthly plane.
That is a day
when the ancestors are worked with.
Tantric ritual dedicates a whole month to Ancestral work in the autumn. There is the ritual festival of first honouring the mothers line for a fortnight. Which is then followed by honouring the fathers line for a further fortnight.

When the Moon is is Magha Nakshatra, it is also a day when the ancestors come close to us spiritually. The half ascending Moon of Bagalamukhi supports us to touch the balance of dark and light ancestral themes. And so, on this ritual night, while the moon in in the Star of ancestry, we shall take a journey to the world of the ancestors. This night is blessed under the auspices of the Goddess Bagalamukhi. She it be, who pulls the spirit beyond the terrestrial.

The Ashwini Kumar twins are the two human bodied and horse headed gods of all healing arts.
They are the twin stars in the constellation of Aries. The first of the constellations.
The head symbolism plays out strongly when we look at this constellation and it’s related stories. We see that the constellation of Aries rules the head and relates to the themes of Heads and head chopping that we will soon encounter if we read on.
Of note is also that the Sun is the father of the Ashwini Kumar twins.
Of note because the sun is exulted in Aries.

Let us firstly go to Greek myth as an introduction to the lessons of Ashwini Nakshatra.

The Greek mythology of the 12 labours of Hercules is an archetypal journey of the soul through the 12 zodiacal houses.
The first labour of Hercules is the lesson of Aries.
Hercules is possessed of legendary strength and with his strength comes a pride and satisfaction in himself and his abilities.
Hercules tended to overestimate himself to the point of blindness of others, as we will see in the the first labour, where the gods sent Hercules to go and tame the flesh eating mares.
Hercules easily does it with one arm.
Satisfied and full of pride with his easy achievement, Hercules goes off to celebrate his victory, handling the wild flesh eating horses to his best friend.
Hercules went off in search of grandeur and merriment.
Of course, his friend had not the strength of Hercules.
Hercules’ strength was his weakness and lack of clear perspective.
Hercules failed miserably at the very first labour and had to abjectly lament the loss of his best friend by a hideously violent death. All the blame was on Hercules and his blindness of reality.

We see the horse theme played out clearly here. We see the destructive side of horse power also, that is, power without grace and heart.
The whole constellation of the energies of the first labor of Hercules point to violence and the destructive side of horse power.
Without intelligence, there be no grace.
Without grace, there is only bravado and violence against the sacred heart.
Blindness and its cure is a pivotal theme of #Ashwini #Nakshatra, as we shall discover upon further reading.

The Ashwini Kumar twins are the healing horse gods of the Yogins. These celestial healers actually have the cure to blindness. They are the Celestial horses who open the eyes of the heart by mixing grace with power.
Just like Hercules in the story above who got the lesson of Ashwini Nakshatra, when his eyes were opened after seeing the result of the arrogance and pride that lost him his best friend.

There are many stories that tell of how the Ashwini Kumar Twins cured blindness. In the Mahabharat for example, the following story is to be found, slight variants of the same story are scattered though the scriptures.

This is a story about the Star constellation of Ashwini Nakshatra:

Once there was a princess named Sukanya who married and cared for the ancient Yogi hermit named Cyavan who lived deep in the woods absorbed in Samadhi.

Cyavan meditated with his eyes blazing forward in the technique known as Tratak. (this will be part of the ritual meditation) Tratak gives one second sight.

After sitting for long years, the old Yogis body was covered in fallen leaves and ants, only his blazing eyes were visible in their burning focus.
The princess Sukanya was wandering in the woods and upon seeing two shining stars, she got curious, and with a stick she found on the ground. She proceeded to prick at the stars to see what they were.
Being the eyes of the Yogi, of course she unwittingly caused his blindness.
She agreed to marry and care for the now blind old Yogi as a way to recompense her action.

The Ashwini twins happened to be in the woods collecting healing herbs, when they saw the beautiful princess. They wanted to get on with some horseplay, but Sukanya was ever faithful and refused them angrily.
The twins are the very pictures of beauty. They are said to radiate health and beauty, and they did not ever experience being refused before.
They proposed that they would cure the blind old Yogi and make him young again, but only on the condition that she should identify him after his transformation, but if she chose wrongly, then she would have to get leave with them.

She wanted her old blind husband to regain vision and health, and so both she and the old Yogi agreed to the game.
The Horsey healing boys carried the now old decrepit and blind Yogi into the lake after giving him a mixture of some healing herbs. In the waters they did their healing magic. And when they emerged from the water, they all dazzled and glowed with startling radiance.

Sukanya couldn’t tell the difference between them, as all three were just radiating pure power. She felt into her heart and selected one of the three with the prayer that she would select her husband.
She of course selected her husband and the story went on to other things such as a bit of horseplay.

It is said that the mixture of healing herbs that the Ashwini twins gave to the old decrepit and blind Cyavan to restore him to power has been handed down the generations as the healing tonic known as Cyavanprash. Every Indian household has known this thick sweet substance. It is both feared and loved by children.

Let us consider the 3 Nakshatra’s that are ruled by Ketu to further decode this mysterious energy. Ketu is the ruling Planet of Ashwini Nakshatra, which is the Nakshatra we are presently focusing upon. In Ashwini, Ketu is about going deep into the art of healing.

Ketu is also the ruler of Magha Nakshatra. Magha is the throne of royal power. In Magha, Ketu energy brings us to our seat of power through honouring our heritage.

Ketu is also the ruler of Mool Nakshatra, Mool Nakshatra is ruled by a Nirrti.
She is the Godess of destruction, born of Adharma and Himsa, (unhealthy action and violence) Mool literally means the Root of the body.
Think of the Root, it is the place of defecation, there is no creativity without destruction, is clear here in the sense of defecation.
This is the Base Chakra, the Anal area which is known also as the Ashwini horse point. This is the door of Ganesh. The Tantrics call it Gaja Dhwar, which literally means the elephant doorway.
Ganesh has two colours.
Firstly he is grey. Grey is the colour of Ketu. But Ketu is also said to be red, and so is Ganesh said to be red.
Ganesh is the deity of both Mars and Ketu. When Ganesh sits on the throne of Magha, he becomes the royal red ruby. The chair of Magha is the sexual opening which Tantrics call Shakti Dhwar, literally the doorway of the Goddess.

Rahu and Ketu are also opposites. Rahu is red and hungry. And when Ganesh is Red, he is in action and moving to the realm of Rahu. Rahu and Ketu are inseparable mirrors of each other.
Now the deeper connotation here is that the sexual opening is Rahu and the Anus is Ketu.
The Nadi (energy channel) receives the smoke of Ketu from the anus and out the sexual opening. Rahu and Ketu are connected to obscuration, eclipse and smoke.
This Mudra of drawing in ‘psychic smoke, into the anus is known as Ashwini Mudra.
It activates the Ketu energies and brings them into the field of consciousness.
Consider that after the horse defecates, it draws the anus in.

In the ritual of Ashwini Nakshatra, the anus is worked with to a rather great degree.
Moolbandh is the sexual door Mudra that swings the sexual door open and closed.
Ashwini Mudra is the action of swinging between the open and closed door of the Anus.
The Tantric learns to switch between these energetic actions and doorways.
Deep psychic energy is stored in these centres, by becoming conscious of the contractions and impulses of these doorways by making unconscious sensations conscious, the Yogins awaken the potentials of the Rahu and Ketu axis.

We will next consider the Story of the birth of Ashwini Kumar horse twins.
It is a story that points to sexual themes and dual energies.
Notice in the story that they came out of their mothers nostrils, one from each.
This is an encoded part of the story, that further points to the dual doorways of the anus and sexual openings.
The ritual practices of Ashwini Nakshatra involve connecting the nostrils with the lower doorway of the Anus, in what are known as the Ashwini Pranayam practices.

Let us look at the birth and origin of the Ashwini twins. We will consider the fascinating story of how they became the celestial healers, along with the perhaps even more fascinating story of their birth. This will take us deeper into the insight of their power and position amongst the stars.

On with the rather sexy story of horseplay and the resultant birth of the beautiful horsey healing boys who became the celestial healers.

Here we first visit a familiar myth of the Sun and his wife Chaya, the shadow woman:

Once upon a time, the Sun had a wife. She loved him, but he was too hot and overbearing for her with his active radiance and heat.
The Suns wife Sanjana, needed a break, and so she ran away to a far off forrest and took to Yogic practices in order to learn how to handle solar heat.
She practiced intense Tapasya and Chaya Karana. This is the practice of working with the shadow. At deep levels of this practice, the practitioner is able to get their shadow to move about and do things. Sanjana sent her double of the shadow woman Chaya back to her husband the Sun to stand in for her while she continued with Yogic practices.
The Sun suspected nothing as the Shadow wife resembled his wife Sanjana in every which way.
Time passed and many things happened. The Sun and the Shadow woman gave birth to Shuni (Saturn), who be the force and weight of Karma itself.
Chaya ended up cursing her children, Shuni and Yamaraja, the lords of Karma and Dharma. She left both of them limping with her curses.
Consider what this symbol of limping could mean when applied to these terrible two, as they are known.
Yamaraja and Yami the twins were born earlier from Sanjana, and Shuni was born of Shadow.
When the Sun thought about it, he realised that no mother would curse her children in this way, and so he cast his beams across the earth and saw his wife Sanjana practicing the ancient Yogic devotions in a far off forest.
He set off towards her. The wife started get hotter and hotter and realised that the sun had found out, she used her Yogic Siddhi (power) to turn herself into a mare and charged off at lightning speed, so fast was she that the sun was left in the dust. The Sun turned himself into a horse, and darkness descended without his solar light in the world. Then the chase began.
As he watched his wife run from behind, his sexual desire reached uncontrollable levels. He leapt through the sky with a mighty neigh and landed inside his horse wife and ejaculated instantly.
The horse wife sneezed at the moment that he ejaculated, and out of each of her nostrils were born the Ashwini twins.
They were beautiful and powerful with such potent sexual charm, that none could resist them.
It is said by Tantrics that the energy of the moment of sexual conception is ever carried in the aura until made conscious.
And so, the Ashwini horse boys became the celestial studs in the very truest sense.

We have already considered how Ketu is the ruling Planet of the Ashwini Star boys. And we have looked at how Ketu represents the Anus.
In Tantic lore, it is said the Sun in the guise of a horse mounted his horse wife anally, this refers to the Ketu element of the whole horsey constellation.
The work with the Anus is primary in working with Ashwini Nakshatra and Ketu in general.

Soon we will see how Venus hung upside down and inhaled the smoke of Ketu. This symbol can also be taken to mean that he inhaled through the Anus. (refer to the section on Venus below)
This anal inhalation of the smoke of Ketu, is a Tantric practice of the doorway known as Gaja (elephant), Dhwar (doorway) of the grey Ketu aspect of Ganesh.
The symbol of Ketu is inherent in the name Gaja Dhwar.
The anus is possessed of the nerve endings that when worked with, can access ones Karmic lessons in relation to Ketu.
This ritual night will be a night of Ass, and we are not talking mule!

The Ashwini Twins grew quickly into powerful healers. They wanted to extend their skills even further and lean the art of Rasanaya Vidya, also known as Madhubala Vidya, which means the wisdom of sweetness.
This is the wisdom of making potions and medicines and secret elixirs from even more secret herbs.
It was the god Indra who knew this science and carefully guarded it that no one should find out and become as powerful as he.
Indra taught it to the Rishi’s Dadachi for his own interests and protection.
But he told Rishi Dadich, that if he ever taught any of it to anyone, his head would be chopped off. (Take note of the Ketu symbolism here)

The Ashwini Twins were possessed of profound intelligence and figured out a way to learn the secrets. With their surgical skill, they simply removed the head of Rishi Dadachi and replaced it with the head of a horse. They learned the secrets of Rasayana Vidya and after they got every last drop of knowledge out of the horses mouth, they reattached the original head of Rishi Dadachi with the help of some healing elixir, The old Rishi was good as new.
Rishi Dadachi could not really be held accountable, and so he managed to keep his head.
In the section of Venus that follows the next, we will further see how Indra tried to make sure that Shukracharia should not get powerful enough to destabilize his throne as the King of Paradise.
Another version of this story tells how the Ashwini twins preserved the original head and the horses body. When Indra did chop of the horse head – that told the secrets – on the body of Rishi Dadachi, the twins simply replaced the original heads and found a way to get past the curse of Indra.
On account of this tale, Dadachi is also known as Ashvashirsa, which means horse headed.

Though this is a Ketu ruled Nakshatra, we must consider that Rahu can’t be separated from Ketu. After all they were once one being that was split in two.
They are ever 180 degrees to each other and move as a mirror.
They are the spiritual mirror of the Smokey realms of the soul.
Both are linked to smoke, one exhales and the other inhales smoke.
Rahu became the hungry head separated from the body, that consumes and looks ever forward, Rahu is never able to retain anything because he’s cut at the neck,
Rahu is ever exhaling smoke because things go right through him.
Rahu is said to be the exhalation of the Smoke that eclipses the sun.. and so his head expands ever forward and consumes.
He is exaggeration. Rahu is a loud energy that makes everything in realty grow and appear larger than it is.
He takes away the light and makes one becomes blind to reality.
Rahu ornaments things, he is drama and dress, he is the oversized crystal ring and the styling with bling, the ego if you will.
Rahu is the head in the hand of Kali Ma. Until the head is taken off, Ketu is not awoken.
So Ketu is the body half that is also symbolised as the tail of the serpent. The birth star of Ketu is the celestial serpent of Ashlesha Nakshatra incidentally.
Ketu is the reflection of Rahu. He is the exact opposite. The tail portion is the detachment. The Root of Kundalini Shakti.
Ketu is a severe force of asceticism. Ketu is solitude and potent detachment.
Ketu has not the hungry head of Rahu on his shoulders. His head has been cut off. Ketu is the acceptance of the past. Ketu is the past and the one who retains it, unlike the head who is ever hungry.
Ketu therefore inhales smoke.
Rahu gulps and bolts his food down and is unaware of the consequences of his actions, because there are no consequences for him, everything simply just passes through him. Rahu is loud and the mouth is ever smacking its lips in search of more, ever hungry and ever tired and never fulfilled.

Ketu on the other hand – as we are told in the stories – is given to fasting and hardly eating or sleeping. He is the aseptic who takes what he gets.
Several Magical novels of Hermann Hesse, are very indicative of the the themes of the Rahu and Ketu axis issues. Those wishing to investigate this energy through existential themes would do well to read,
The Glass Bead Game (1943),
Narcissus & Goldmund (1930)
Siddhartha (1922)
The Journey of Ketu is down and back .

Consider the story of Shukracharia (Venus) He has the wisdom of Mritsanjeevani Vidya. This is the ability to awaken the dead. Shukra means sperm quite literally. He awakens the spirits of the past and gives them life.
The spirits and ancestors of the past are known to Yogins as the Pitris. The Pitris ruling planet is nothing but Ketu.
Shukracharia (Venus) got this power to awaken the dead by hanging upside down from a tree and breathing in the smoke of a fire that burned beneath him.
This is a very strong ancient Tantric Sadhana that a few Tantrics still do to this day.

The reversal of the head under the heart is a symbol to meditate upon here. Shukracharia started to slowly acquire power as he continued his austerity.
His nemesis and opposite Indra sent his daughter Jayanti to stop Shukracharia from getting powerful (remember that Indra is the king of the Devas, and Shukracharia is the Guru of the Asuras).
Indra’s daughter sprinkled chili-powder into the fire so as to stop Shukracharia completing his ritual austerity, but still he induced and continued. She added more spice until the fire burned noxiously with thick suffocating clouds of smoke.
Blood started to pour profusely out of Shukracharia’s swollen head. It came out from his eyes, nose, mouth and ears and landed in the fire which burned poisonously.
He breathed excruciatingly as the toxic Rahu laced smoke was breathed in.
Pay attention and note that these are the openings in the head, the chili is Rahu and so is the head, but the head is upside down at 180 degrees, which indicates the place of Ketu. Chili powder is also red, this red colour of the chilli powder is a very significant detail, as you will see if you’ve payed attention.

Shukracharia’s head being upside down signifies that he turned around and went from Rahu to Ketu by restraining himself to this austerity.
The Rahu energy tried to distract poor old Venus from completing the ritual that would give him the power to raise the dead.
The Rahu energy brought spice and drama and all the blood sweat and tears that goes with that. It brought all of this for Ketu to resolve. Did Venus continue.
Hell yes he did!
Shiva stepped in to overt the potential explosion of the head after years of hanging over the noxious fire. Shiva blessed Shukracharia with Mritsanjeevani Vidya and so the enduring Venus got the power to raise the dead ancestors (Remember that Shukra means sperm).
That Shukracharia underwent this extreme austerity with ruthless fortitude is indicative of him aligning to the energy of Ketu, who represents the extreme magical austerity known as Tapasya. This is the skill to turn towards introspection when the fires of heated motion prevail. Ketu is the one who turns action inward. Actions of restless activity, such as searching, looking, moving, doing and scrolling though the endless rows of information are commanded by Ketu.
Ketu is extremely stern and able to face deep solitude and pain.
Ketu can weather the harshest terrain because he inherently carries the vision of healing.

The daughter of Indra was so impressed by the devotion of Shukracharia, that’s she fell in love with him. Much to the dismay of her father Indra, who now had lost his daughter to his arch enemy.
What a story!

The Tantric’s initiate is to cut off at least one head in their lives.
Removing their own head of the Rahu within and becoming the audience and not the participants of ancestral Karma and drama.
Rahu is the head that likes to add a bit more spicy chili powder to reality.
Ketu is the one to release and heal by stepping out of the action of ever consuming the Karma that we are involved in.
Ketu is like the isolation, reduction and restriction… this is especially poignant in these times where Rahu is the excess. His motto is more is better, he wants to sprinkle every damn flavor on his plate but is never satisfied and so never steps out of the cycle of ancestral Karmic patterns and never will, his motion is up and out.

When we go down to the ground where Ketu is, then we take to simplicity and healing. (Ketu’s motion is down and in) Ketu is the record keeper of all events, he therefore represents memory. When memory is gone it is a sign that Rahu is in town and has taken over. At its most extreme expression we see dementia. Memory decay and dementia is a symptom of Rahu. He’s so hungry for more of everything that nothing registers and no memory of any action is retained.
Sometimes we pick up these ancestral patterns if we are familiar to this.
Whatever the excess is, one can be certain that in excess consumption memory will not be. Whether one travels between countries and cultures on the quest for experience, or whether they spend and buy to excess.
It is the excess that erodes the Part of the mind responsible for memory. The Mannas, as it’s called, is the mind to the Yogins, it is made up of several faculties, and memory is one component.

Before we move on from the detachment, moderation and introversion of Ketu, let us also consider that he is focus, devotion and the stamina to see things through.
But focus, devotion and the stamina to see things through, can be ruin if it’s done in Rahu fashion.
Focus, devotion and the stamina done in Ketu fashion is healing, it is introspection, it is the secret to access and heal the memories of the past.
A study of our Rahu/Ketu axis is the path of Tantra.

Some Tantrics go so far as to take of a head as a reminder of the divide between the two. We have perhaps heard about the skull of the Yogin. We might be quick to dismiss it as superstition or bad magic if we follow the popular narratives of a shallow culture that is most comfortable with parroted slogans.
There is reason why the Skull is the symbol of the Tantra.
Ponder on why that may be?

#Ketu is symbolised as a flag. The flag at the peak of an Indian temple is placed in honour of Ketu. Ketu is the flag on the chariot of Dhumavati, and also the flag on the chariot of Krishna and Arjuna in the great spiritual battle known as Mahabharat.
Ketu is the accomplishment. When the mountain climbers reached the top, they would put a flag to mark the victory, this explains Ketu in a nutshell.

But Ketu is not the champagne and after party only. Ketu is the friends that fell down the rockslide as you climbed.
Ketu is the rock that sliced the hand open as you tried to save yourself from falling backwards into abyss, the selfsame hand that went septic with little hope of recovery.

When the right hand of action goes septic, we might turn to the left-hand way of Vamamarg… This is the way of the heart.

Ketu is the tears of loneliness as you realise you’re lost from the team of other climbers.
Ketu is headless and can’t see the way, but ’tis he who for that reason, finds the way!

Ketu is for this reason connected to Moksha, liberation and release.
To say he is a hard teacher is a grand understatement.
But he gets the job done.
May you place your flag victoriously upon the Mahabharat mountain of your destiny.
