About Anuradha Nakshatra
Known as “the Star of Success”, Anuradha is the 17th Nakshatra in the series of 27 Nakshatras. It is the group of three stars forming the shape of “a staff”. The names of three stars in Western astronomy are - Beta Scorpionis, Delta Scorpionis (Isidis) and Pi-Scorpionis. All these stars lie at the beginning of the Scorpio #constellation and can be easily spotted in the dark night sky from the terrain.

Etymologically, the word Anuradha means “Another Radha” or “After Radha”. It is closely linked with the asterism Radha (Vishakha) and despite any clear similarity, Vishakha is paired with star Anuradha like Purva Phalguni and Uttara Phalguni Nakshatra. Alternatively, the name of the Anuradha constellation refers to “Subsequent success”. It indicates the chances of finding fame and success by Anuradha star natives in their later life with hard work and devotion.

Symbolized by the staff, the Anuradha constellation represents power and protection. It also signifies wisdom, learning and close association with the Universal forces. Anuradha star is also symbolized by the “lotus” representing purity, auspiciousness, knowledge and enlightenment. It shows the attainment of knowledge through intellectual, mental and emotional upheavals. The alternative symbol of Anuradha Nakshatra is a “triumphant gateway adorned with leaves”. It speaks of victory and attainment of goals through group and collaborative activities.

Mitra is the presiding deity of the Anuradha star. He is one of the twelve Adityas (solar deities) and God of friendships, good faith and warmth. He is associated with the light of the dawn and invoked along either with Varuna (the deity of Shatabhisha) or Aryaman (The Uttara Phalguni Nakshatra Lord). Mitra offers an optimistic view to Anuradha star natives and infuses qualities of lightheartedness, leadership and helpfulness to them.
