The Ashlesha Nakshatra is represented by a coiled snake or serpent, and serpents hold deep spiritual significance. The image of a coiled snake symbolizes Kundalini energy, a powerful force within. Serpents are known for their heightened psychic abilities, allowing them to detect danger swiftly and stay vigilant. However, when this Nakshatra is negatively influenced, individuals born under it may exhibit qualities like being eerie, distant, or even deceitful. It’s a reminder that the energy of the stars can shape our personalities in intriguing ways.
