It is about the people who are the richest or most well-known. As the nakshatra's deity, " #Khyapayitri #Shakti" and "Eight Vasus" bestow renown and wealth upon their natives. It is a sign that brings interest in #music and the #arts in those born under it. The musical instrument, #drum, that serves as Dhanishta nakshatra's symbol denotes rhythm, music, dance, and a #connection to the #divine. It makes sense why it is called the #Star of #Symphony.

#Ashlesha #Nakshatra is 9th among 27 #Nakshatras in #VedicAstrology.
What is Ashlesha Nakshatra?
This is a first ‘ #Gandant’ Nakshatra (‘Gand’ means a knot and ‘Ant’ means the end, spiritual end) where both Nakshatra, as well as the house, comes to an end. Ashlesha names from its #shakti (creative faculty), which is the ‘Vish Ashleshan Shakti’ Vish means poison and Ashleshan mean burning. Therefore, the name implies the burning of the poison.
Ashlesha nakshatra is also about the #awakening of the #kundalini Shakti which resides around the spine.
This Nakshatra can create poison to destroy its victim. There is a poison element of all of the Zodiac associated with the Nakshatra.
Any planet which sits in this Nakshatra, the Karakatwas of it could be poisoned. e.g., If 4th lord in the fourth house, then the mental peace can be missing.
Ashlesha Nakshatra- The Nakshatra of Transformation
This Nakshatra is also related to transformation. When the snake shed their skin, it hibernates as their eyes become cloggy. Ashlesha Nakshatra can have pitiful eye sights or have poor insight into this. But Sexuality, arouse ability, and sensuality is quite high in this Nakshatra. But their eyes can be hypnotic.
The natives of this Nakshatra can victimize people. Mars in Ashlesha Nakshatra is debilitated, which acts with its negative energy and can harm even without being hurt.
Ashlesha Nakshatra- The Teekshana Nakshatra
Just like Ardra, Jyestha, and Moola, Ashlesha Nakshatra is a ‘ #Teekshana Nakshatra,’ which means dreadful Nakshatra. It has a good command upon #healing. But this healing is not the healthy healing but the negative healing i.e., the healing seen in #chemotherapy wherein the good cells have to be killed through #poison. So, this to start these kinds of healings, Ashlesha Nakshatra is the right choice.

Second Mythology
The cosmic churning of the sea (Samudra -Manthan)was done using the Vasuki serpent as the rope. The demon took the head of Vasuki (Rahu). The tail was taken by Gods (Ketu). While churning took place, Vasuki, the serpent, started to spit the poison (Halahal), which brought problems to the process of churning. It was Shiva, who drank the Halahal to let the churning process go without any problem.
How to use this Mythology: –
#Shiva had the ability to drink all the Halahal of the world. Shiva can cure the negativity that Ashlesha Nakshatra has. Themes of disguise come from Ashlesha.
The third Mythology
Kashyap Muni had thirteen wives. Kadru and Vinaka were two wives who desired kids. Kadru wanted many kids, so she gave birth a thousand snakes. Whereas Vinaka wanted few but intelligent ones, so she gave birth to two. One of Vinaka’s kind became Aruna, the lame charioteer of Sun God. Whereas, the other became the Garuda. Once there was a bet between Kadru and Vinaka. They had to identify the color of the tail of a galloping Horse. The loser would lose her independence and would have to be the slave of the other. Kadru sent her serpent sons to color the white tail of the horse black. Resultingly, Vinaka misjudged the color and lost the bet. She, along with her sons, was enslaved by Kadru, which was sheer cheating. Garuda eventually came to know about it, and since then, the Garuda and serpents never get along.

#UttaraBhadrapada #Nakshatra is the 26th Nakshatra as per Hindu #astrology.
Uttara Bhadra is ruled by Ahir Budhnya, the serpent of the depths of the atmosphere.
#Ahira-Budhnaya is also called #Ohi-bridna or #Uro-boros. He is the king of the #Nagas. Originating in ancient Egyptian iconography, the ouroboros entered Western tradition via Greek magical tradition and was adopted as a symbol in Gnosticism and Hermeticism and most notably in alchemy.
#AhirBudhnya, the benefic serpent of the depths of the #Atmosphere, symbolizes fertility, kundalini energy, and need for seclusion that is experienced in this nakshatra. It brings the power of rain and stability and connects us with the creative powers at the foundations of the world. There can be tremendous psychic ability and a snake-like quality that allows Uttara Bhādrapadā people to explore all the nooks and crannies of life. This serpent of the primeval depths, which can also refer to the depths of the sky, suggets both movement and seclusion (or maybe even movement in seclusion or secrecy), as well as an implication of solitude and retirement. Like Ajaikapada, Ahirbudhnya can reference the power that the Tantrikas call the #Kundalini #Shakti, an energy which once activated initiates a process of spiritual evolution which climaxes in supreme wisdom, knowledge, enlightenment, and sometimes extraordinary abilities or awareness.
The Ahirbudhnya Saṃhitā belongs to the Pancharatra religion, is a Vaishnava tantrika composition, and was composed possibly over several centuries within the 1st millennium of the Common Era, after 300 CE. Ahirbudhnya-Saṃhitā literally means a compendium (Samhita) of the serpent-from-the-depths (from ahi for serpent and budhna for bottom / root). In the Ahirbudhnya Samhita, Vishnu emanated in 39 different forms. The Samhita is characteristic for its concept of Sudarshana. It provides mantras for Shakti and Sudarshana and details the method of worship of the multi-armed Sudarshana. Its chapters include explanations on the origin of astras (weapons), anga (mantras), Vyuhas, sounds, and diseases, how to make Sudarshana Purusha appear, how to resist divine weapons and black magic, and provides method for making and worshipping the Sudarshana Yantra
The Ahirbudhnya recognizes one of the eleven Rudras; that is Shiva himself in his Satvik form, in the form of a teacher. In the Veda ahi budhna (serpent of the bottom) is an atmospheric god who Schrader says merged with Rudra-Siva (Pashupati); with Ahi Budhanya in later Vedic texts connected to Agni Grahapatya, suggesting this was a benevolent being and not the malevolent Ahi Vritra. Ahirbudhnya and Aja-Ekapada had their share of allocated ghriya (Grihyasutra) rituals. In later puranic literature, Ahirbudhnaya becomes one of the 11 #Rudras.

#Uttaraphalguni #nakshatra is the 12th nakshatra out of the total 27 nakshatras. The deity God of this nakshatra is ‘ #Bhaga’, who is one of the 12 sons of Sun’s mother #Aditi.
Bhaga is the God of #happiness. This god is also referred as chayani #shakti, power is the giving of prosperity (through marriage or union). Its basis above is the wealth gained from one’s own family or from one’s partner. These together bring about the accumulation of #wealth.
In the #Rigveda, the personification of Lord Bhaga is attested primarily in RV 7.41, which is devoted to the praise of the Bhaga and of the deities closest to him, and in which the Bhaga is invoked about 60 times, together with #Agni, #Indra, the dual #Mitra- #Varuna, two #Ashvins, #Pusan, #Soma and #Rudra.
The 5th/6th-century BCE Nirukta (Nir. 12.13) describes Bhaga as the god of the morning. In the Rigveda, the Bhaga is named as one of the Adityas, the seven (or eight) celestial sons of Aditi, the Rigvedic mother of the gods. In the medieval Bhagavata Purana, the Bhaga reappears with the Puranic Adityas, which are by then twelve solar gods.
Bhaga God is referred Sauptika Parva of Mahabharata in which Rudra by anger plucks Bhaga’s eye when surplus shares of sacrifices were not shared correctly by Gods like Savitur, Pusha. Rudra cut of #Savitur hands and he took the teeth of the God Pushan

What Revati Nakshatra is like in general
As one of the most pleasant nakshatras, it has a good effect on people who are born into it, giving them a sense of elegance and grace. Even though they are helpful and have some social graces, they may be able to stay unaffected by the stresses of situations. Their appearance is graceful and well-lit, with lines of knowledge and educational success. Changes and turns rarely have an impact on them.
Their faces and bodies are proportionally beautiful, and their poise, friendliness, knowledge, and ability to figure things out are the most important parts of their personalities. It also includes having a great mind and a desire to learn.
Behavior traits
Revati-born people are kind and outgoing. By showing compassion, you get respect, love, and wonder. Reaching out and helping others drives their actions. They are generally considered mystical because of this.
It’s odd that they don’t care about helpful stuff despite their superb social abilities. They dwell in dreams and thinking to avoid reality.
Positive qualities
Besides being pillars of strength and support for society, such locals are religious, ethical, and principled. Their culture, refinement, and etiquette are also valued. Their optimism, which is naturally beneficial, is another great feature.
Negative aspects
Negative aspects
Because of the negative effects of some planets, natives may be prone to laziness and sadness. Aside from these things, their rigid adherence to principles and accepted rules of behavior may lead to bad traits like stubbornness, temper, and a strong will. This may lead to orthodoxy and belief, which are both bad things.
People born in the Revati Nakshatra have a choice of jobs
People with a prominent Revathi in their horoscope are good candidates for jobs in scientific study, archeological survey, writing, and literature. They can also do well in jobs linked to management, astrology, and astronomy by using their knowledge and social skills.
Compatibility and Incompatibility of Revati Nakshatra
Magha and Revati are incompatible based on nakshatra obstruction principles. The concept of “yoni kuta” states that Bharati and Revathi, represented by male and female elephants, are the most compatible. Elephants’ enmity against lions makes them incompatible with Purva Bhadrapada and Dhanistha, while their friendly nature towards monkeys, sheep, and snakes makes them compatible with the corresponding nakshatra. As a result, Revathi nakshatra is compatible with the Shravana, Uttaraashada, Krittika, Rohini, and Pushya nakshatras.

Individuals born under the Revati Nakshatra are blessed with a natural inclination towards romanticism and a strong desire for a fulfilling love life. They are drawn toward dreamy and imaginative notions of love and seek to find both stability and novelty in their relationships.
If Revati Nakshatra has a P.A.C. connection with the 5th house or lord, they may desire their partner to openly express love, as it brings them a sense of reassurance and deepens their connection. It’s truly heartwarming how they value these expressions of love, as it shows just how much they care and cherish their relationship. However, every now and then, this beautiful longing for love and affection can stem from a whimsical and enchanting notion of love, much like Cinderella’s fairy tale, or a deep soulful connection from a past life. (While astrology deliberately suggests that long-lasting love can have its fair share of ups and downs, it’s important to remember that not all love stories unfold exactly as we imagine in our dreams.) It’s absolutely wonderful to dream of a fairytale romance, but it’s equally important to embrace the beautiful complexities and joys that come with real-life relationships.
The Revati Nakshatra holds great significance in Vedic astrology. The positioning of planets in this area can greatly impact their characteristics. Hence, it is important to understand and analyze the influence of the Revati Nakshatra on a deeper level for a comprehensive astrological reading.

This #nakshatra connects #Aquarius and #Pisces, indicating the end of everything and the start of out-of-this-world conceptions and experiences, respectively. Aquarius is the sign of humanity’s ambitions and technologies, representing the highest point of happiness and the height of sorrow, the best of both worlds. Pisces, on the other hand, is the beginning of a world of creativity and opportunities that hasn’t been fully explored yet

Despite its affinity for supernaturalism and occultism, the nakshatra exhibits sociability, helpfulness, pleasant gestures, and compassion. Purva Bhadrapada Nakshatra symbolizes creation, destruction, compassion, and violence.
In spite of the fact that they value tradition, they are capable of undergoing change and adaptation. When Jupiter is afflicted, though, it can cause the native to withdraw from society and focus only on his or her own needs.
If natives of the Purva Bhadrapada Nakshatra are afflicted by certain planets, they may prove to be harmful and destructive. However, they may also find themselves the victims of socially destructive methods and terrorism due to their innate propensity towards the supernatural. They are also known for their dishonesty, negativity, and immoral behaviour, which is another one of their negative characteristics.

Symbolism: This #constellation is commonly associated with the shape of the “front legs of a funeral cot”, which some interpret as representing an exit or conclusion. As previously stated, it signifies the conclusion of all that we are familiar with. Furthermore, “the sword” is another emblem of this constellation, signifying a lasting severance or conclusion.

Conclusion
Purva Bhadrapada is like a unicorn that embodies both magical mischief and good vibes, and a never-ending supply of positive energy. Well, apparently both Saturn and Jupiter are in charge around here. So apparently, in #Bhadrapada, they worship a one-legged goat named #Ajaikapada who is supposed to be a form of Lord Rudra. Looks like #Purva-Bhadrapada people are twice as interesting with their two-faced personalities. Watch out, you never know which side you’ll get! Ah, the classic tale of the two-faced side – one minute it’s your BFF, and the next it’s causing chaos and making you want to plot your revenge.
When #Jupiter is afflicted, residents may withdraw from society and focus solely on their own wants. As the nakshatra that bridges Aquarius and Pisces, Purva Bhadrapada marks both the final curtain and the opening act of extraordinary adventures. It is linked to the lion, which is also the fierce form and vehicle of the goddess #Shakti, also known as #Durga.
Purva Bhadrapada people are determined to succeed, but this drive can lead to self-harm.

Those born under the Shravan Nakshatra have a remarkable aptitude to absorb all knowledge by listening, much as our forefathers did through oral traditions.

The name Ardra means “wet” or “charged with water”. Individuals born under the influence of Rudra or Shiva are said to be Ardra. Shiva is known for his calm and placid nature and his concern for the well-being of the world, but he is also known as the “destructor”. He protected the world from the poison that was thrown out during the “Samudra manthan”, but his anger can bring about the destruction of the world through his “tandav”. Ardra people possess these characteristics in their core. They face many challenges in their lives, with many ups and downs, but they know how to deal with them. When they’re upset or sad, it’s best for them to stay connected with nature as nature has a healing effect on them.

It is the most curious Nakshatra in the zodiac belt and supports a good sense of humor. According to #VedicAstrology, the planet #Mars is the ruling planet of #Mrigashira #Nakshatra whose symbolic head is #Deer. As Deer are always sensitive, anxious, and suspicious about their surrounding, so are the natives of Mrigashira Nakshatra. Being born in this nakshatra is considered a good #soul filled with immense #love in their #heart. Therefore, they are very delicate and sensitive. Although their mind fluctuates a lot at times, they are intelligent and blessed with honesty and obedience.
Mrigashira is a fifth of 27 Nakshatra, and if you were born when the Moon was between 23: 20 degrees Taurus and 6: 40 Degree Gemini then this guide is for you.
#Buddha was also #born in this #constellation. This Nakshatra is the #birth sign of #Shakti #Parvati and the domain of manifestation.
One of the prominent traits of this person is that they tend to be suspicious of others. However, they themselves are very honest in their interactions with others and expect the same honesty in return. They are susceptible to being taken for granted by friends and family, so they should be careful and not blindly trust them. Trusting them without caution can lead to heartbreak later. However, if they find out that they have been cheated on by someone, they will still deal with them, but in a very cautious manner. This person does not believe in just living a simple life and thinking big, but also follows higher values. They are very intolerant of people who have prejudices and judgmental views or those who act in a dishonest way. It’s worth noting that this person may have a double personality, where their outward appearance may not match their true inner self.
The female native of the Mrigashira Nakshatra is intelligent and interested in charity work. These females are always alert and witty, but at the same time, can be selfish. She has a sharp tongue that can sometimes curse others. She must learn to control her temper, or she may end up harming herself. She is literate and inclined towards the arts. She is very fond of material comforts, enjoys various cuisines, lots of ornaments, and branded clothing.

Our #birth nakshatra and Lagna #nakshatra have a profound effect on our life, it indicates our nature, our body structure, and the direction and choice of our life.
As the first star in the cycle of the nakshatras, #Ashwini carries the energy of beginnings. Those born under Ashwini hold the ability to initiate or pioneer ideas and activities. They must be cautious not to begin something they cannot finish.
#AshwiniKumaras is symbolic of golden armored horse-headed twins. Just like a horse, the natives possess power, strength, dignity, swiftness, and courage, and are also endowed with vitality and initiativeness. These untamed horses are least likely to tell what needs to be done and always focus on self-improvement.
Very few of you would know that they are the physicians of God, the friends of the sick and unfortunate. With Ketu, the south node as the governor of Ashwini Nakshatra, this constellation reflects the dynamism of Ketu.

14 April, 2024 Sunday Shashthi #White Maa #Katyayani Puja
The sixth day of Navratri is dedicated to the worship of Maa Katyayani and signifies cheerfulness and joy. Believed to be the destroyer of all evil, she is seen as a warrior goddess who was able to bring peace to the world.
Maa Katyayani is one of the fiercest forms of Goddess Durga. She is also known as Mahishasurmardini (Killer of Mahishasura), as she was able to defeat and kill the evil demon Mahishasura.
It is told that long ago there was a sage by the name of Katyayana. He was a huge devotee of Goddess Shakti and spent days and nights in prayer. Sage Katyayana always wished for #Goddess #Shakti be born as his daughter.
During this period, an evil demon named Mahishasura was creating great trouble for the Gods. As the days went by, he gained more power and the Gods were increasingly worried about him. They prayed to Goddess Shakti and asked her to save them from the wrath of Mahishasura.
Goddess Shakti decided to take #birth on #Earth and end the reign of Mahishasura. She granted the wish of Sage Katyayana and was born on Earth as his daughter. She grew up to be a strong, beautiful fighter and came to be known as Katyayani, the daughter of Katyayana.
One day, two messengers of Mahishasura - Chandha and Mundha - saw Katyayani and were mesmerized by her beauty. They went back to their master and told him all about Katyayani Upon hearing this, Mahishasura got very happy and immediately asked another of his messenger - Dundubhi - to go and talk to Katyayani.
Dundubhi met Katyayani and told her all about Mahishasura. He told her about his greatness and boasted about how Mahishasura was the now the ruler of all three worlds. He told Katyayani that she should marry Mahishasura as they would make a great couple.
Katyayani smiled and told Dundubhi that according to her family tradition, Mahishasura must first defeat her in battle. Only then can they both get married. Dundubhi went back to Mahishaura and told him about this challenge. Mahishasura agreed and soon the preparations began.
A fierce battle took place between Katyayani and Mahishasura. She managed to defeat his demon soldiers and even killed most of them. When Katyayani and Mahishasura came face to face, he transformed himself into a buffalo. This proved to be a real challenge for Katyayani as she struggled to fight him.
However, Katyayani tricked Mahishasura and climbed onto his back. He was surprised by this move and tried very hard to shake her off, but failed. Katyayani then placed her foot on the back of Mahishasura’s neck, pierced him with her Trishul (trident) and cut his head off.
This is how Maa Katyayani killed the evil and powerful demon Mahishasura. In doing so, she saved the Gods from his menace and brought peace back into this world.
Goddess of the Sixth Day of #Navratri
Since, Maa Katyayani defeated and killed Mahishasura, she is also known as Mahishasurmardini. In many parts of India, unmarried girls often observe fasts and pray to Maa Katyayani in order to get a loving and caring husband.
She is an incarnation of Goddess #Durga and is depicted as having four hands. She holds a #lotus in two hands, a #sword in one and blesses her devotees with the fourth hand. It is believed that she protects her devotees from all kinds of evil and blesses them with #happiness and #joy.
