#PurvaBhadrapada #Nakshatra is the 25th Nakshatra as per Hindu #astrology.

Purva Bhadra is ruled by #AjaEkapad, the one-footed serpent or goat. Ajaikapada Bhairava Temple is dedicated to Ekapada Bhairava — an aspect of #Shiva

Aja Ekapada is also worshiped as a form of Lord Shiva and a transport vehicle of Agni, the god of fire. It gives the fire to raise a spiritual person up in life (yajamana vdyamana shakti). Aja Ekapada represents the unborn, transcendent cosmic energy.

The goat is a simple, harmless milk-producing animal which requires almost nothing for its sustenance. However, in the Vedas this deity has been extolled to great heights. He is considered as infinity, an entity without emotion or speech. As Aja, the unborn, he is worshipped as a form of Śiva and is a vehicle of #Agni (fire).

The Agama text Amsumadbhedagama mentions that Ekapada-Trimurti is like the Ekanetra and Ekarudra aspects of Shiva and is one of the Vidyeshvara aspects. He wears a jata-mukuta (a headdress formed of piled, matted hair) and white silken garments. He has three eyes and a pacific appearance. He holds a trishula (trident) and a tanka (small hammer) in two of his four arms and gestures in varada mudra (the boon-giving gesture) and abhaya mudra (the gesture of reassurance.

Another Agama text, the Uttara-Karanagama, also describes Ekapada-Trimurti as one of the Vidyeshvaras. He stands erect (the samabhanga posture) on his one leg on a lotus pedestal (padma pitha). He has three eyes and four arms and is clear as crystal in color. His back hands carry a trisula or mriga (deer) and a tanka and his four hands gesture in varada mudra and abhaya mudra. He wears ordinary kundala earrings or pearl ones and the jata-mukuta. From the right and left of his body emerge Brahma and Vishnu respectively.

The Linga Purana describes #Shiva as “the lord who has one foot, four arms, three eyes and a trident and who is stationed after creating #Vishnu from his left side and four-headed #Brahma from his right side.

#Ekapada icons are found in most of the important Shiva temples in South India.

In Orissa, Ekapada-Bhairava is essentially a Tantric deity. Tantric texts explicitly associate him with the Vedic Aja Ekapada, fire/Agni, sacrifice, the cosmic pillar of the universe, and the Yogini goddesses, who are also linked to the Saptamatrikas.

Purva Bhadrapada Nakshatra | Characteristics, Careers, and Personality

#Shatabhishak #Nakshatra is the 24th Nakshatra as per Hindu #astrology.

Shatabhishak is ruled by #Varuna, the God of the cosmic waters. Varuna is a Vedic deity associated initially with the sky, later also with the seas as well as Ṛta (justice) and Satya (truth). He is found in the oldest layer of Vedic literature of Hinduism, such as hymn 7.86 of the #Rigveda. He is also mentioned in the Tamil grammar work Tolkāppiyam, as the god of sea and rain. He is said to be the son of Kashyapa (one of the seven ancient sages)

In the Hindu Puranas, Varuna is the god of oceans, his vehicle is a Makara (crocodile) and his weapon is a Pasha (noose, rope loop). He is the guardian deity of the western direction. In some texts, he is the father of the Vedic sage Vasishtha.

Varuna is found in Japanese Buddhist mythology as Suiten. He is also found in Jainism

In the earliest layer of the Rigveda, Varuna is the guardian of moral law, one who punishes those who sin without remorse, and who forgives those who err with remorse. He is mentioned in many Rigvedic hymns, such as 7.86–88, 1.25, 2.27–30, 8.8, 9.73 and others. His relationship with waters, rivers and oceans is mentioned in the Vedas.]Vedic poets describe him as an aspect and one of the plural perspectives of the Agni, one of the Primary deity. For example, hymn 5.3 of the Rigveda states:

You at your birth are Varuna, O Agni.
When you are kindled, you are Mitra.
In you, O son of strength, all gods are centered.
You are Indra to the mortal who brings oblation.
You are Aryaman, when you are regarded as having
the mysterious names of maidens, O Self-sustainer.

— Rigveda 5.3.1–2

#Dhanishta #Nakshatra is the 23d Nakshatra as per Hindu #astrology.

Dhanishta is ruled by the eight #Vasus, the Gods of abundance that rule the earthly sphere. #Aditi (Daughter of King Daksha) with sage Kashyapa (Son of Marichi) had 33 sons who are referred as Devas. Twelve are called Aditya including Surya that form 12 months of Hindu calendar, eleven are called Rudras and eight are called Vasus. Aditi (Sanskrit: अदिति “limitless”) is mother of the gods (devamata) and all twelve zodiacal spirits from whose cosmic matrix, the heavenly bodies were born. She may be seen as a feminized form of Brahma and associated with the primal substance (mulaprakriti) in Vedanta. She is mentioned nearly 80 times in the #Rigveda.

The deities which preside over Dhanishta are the eight Vedic devas known as the Vasus, personifications of the cosmic energies: Agni, Prithvi, Vāyu, Antariksha, Āditya, Dyaus, Chandramas, and Nakṣatrani. Vasu translates as “good,” “superb,” or “beneficent,” as well as “wealthy” or “possessing property,” and so all these things, as well as valuable naturally occurring materials, are associated with Dhaniṣṭha. The Vasus are assigned to Dhaniṣṭha in their role of energy sources. For example, charity and a capacity to control or command are also innate features of the Vayus and impart appropriate characteristics on Dhaniṣṭha.

Each Vasu is a #star (sun) and each has a special domain on the different realms of existence. None of them can exist along with materialism. They are the very antithesis of matter. Dhaniṣṭha, therefore completely yet gradually eliminates material attachments from the individual and enables the soul to express itself freely and directly.

#UttaraAshadha #Nakshatra is the 21st Nakshatra as per Hindu #astrology in #Sagittarius #constellation.

#Uttarashadha is ruled by the #Universal #Gods ( #Vishvedevas).

The Visvedevas are the various Vedic gods taken together as a whole. In the #Rigveda a number of hymns are addressed to them, including (according to Griffith) 1.89, 3.54–56, 4.55, 5.41–51, 6.49–52, 7.34–37, 39, 40, 42, 43, 8.27–30, 58, 83 10.31, 35, 36, 56, 57, 61–66, 92, 93, 100, 101, 109, 114, 126, 128, 137, 141, 157, 165, 181.

RV 3.54.17 addresses them as headed by Indra: This is, ye Wise, your great and glorious title, that all ye Deities abide in Indra. (trans. Griffith)

Though many devas are named in the Rig Veda only 33 devas are counted, eleven each of earth, space and heaven. In later Hindu scriptures, they form one of the nine ganadevatas (along with the Adityas, Vasus, Tushitas, Abhasvaras, Anilas, Maharajikas, Sadhyas, and Rudras). According to the Vishnu Purana, they were the sons of Vishvā, a daughter of Daksha, enumerated as follows: 1. Vasu 2. Satya 3. Kratu 4. Daksha, 5. Kala 6. Kama 7. Dhrti 8. Kuru 9. Pururavas 10. Madravas, with two others added by some, 11. Rocaka or Locana, 12. Dhvani Dhuri

Sometimes it is unclear whether a reference to Vishve-devas refers to all Devas collectively, as in the Rigveda, or to the specific group as enumerated in the Puranas.

According to Manu (iii, 90, 121), offerings should be made daily to the Visvedevas. These privileges were bestowed on them by Brahma and the Pitri as a reward for severe austerities they had performed on the Himalaya.

The Viswadevas incarnated on Earth due to the curse of sage Vishwamitra, as the 5 sons of Draupadi with the Pandavas — the Upapandavas. They returned to their original form after being killed by Ashwatthama at night.

#Saturn and his Most wonderful secret in #Astrology

#PurvaAshadha #Nakshatra is the 20th Nakshatra as per Hindu #astrology in #Sagittarius #constellation.

#Purvashadha is ruled by the Waters ( #Apas). Ap (áp-) is the Vedic Sanskrit term for “ #water.

Apas is also the Avestan language term for “the waters” and Āb (plural Ābān) is the Middle Persian-language form. The ape zaothra ceremony — the culminating rite of the Yasna service (which is in turn the principal act of worship) — is literally for the “strengthening of the waters. The Indo-Iranian word also survives as the Persian word for water, āb, e.g. in Punjab (from panj-āb “five waters”). In Tamil, Ap means water, and has references in poetry.

In the #Rigveda, several hymns are dedicated to “the waters” (āpas): 7.49, 10.9, 10.30, 10.47. In the oldest of these, 7.49, the waters relate to the drought of Indra. Agni, the god of fire, has a close association with water and is often referred to as Apām Napāt “offspring of the waters”. In #Vedicastrology, the female deity #Apah is the presiding deity of the Purva Ashadha asterism, meaning “first of the aṣāḍhā”, with aṣāḍhā “the invincible one” being the name of the greater constellation.

In the most celebrated hymn of creation — Nasadiya Sutktha which occurs in the Tenth Book of Rig Veda, as also in the Vak Suktha (RV.10.8.125) and in the Hiranya-garbha Suktha (RV. 10.121 ) the terms Salila and Apah represent Great Waters or the primeval waters or the primeval matter of creation. They stand for the manifest as also for the un-manifest primeval matter: Prakrti or Vak or Aditi or Viraj.

The Śatapatha Brāhmaṇa, refers to water as the first creation. In the be-ginning there was only a creator from whom the water formed, from it, the foam was formed- Prajāpatirvā idamagra āsīt / tasmāt puruṣāttaptāpo jāyante, apāṁ taptānāṁ pheno jāyate (VI-1.3)

Apam Napat is a deity in the Indo-Iranian pantheon associated with water. In Yasht 19 of the Zoroastrian Avesta Apąm Napāt appears as the creator of mankind. However, since in Zoroastrianism Ahura Mazdā is venerated as supreme creator, this function of Apąm Napāt has become reduced.

The Abzu or Apsu is the name for fresh water deity in Sumerian and Akkadian mythology. Abzu (apsû) is also depicted as a deity in the Babylonian creation epic.

Certain tanks of holy water in Babylonian and Assyrian temple courtyards were also called abzu (apsû). Typical in religious washing, these tanks were like Judaism’s mikvot, the washing pools of Islamic mosques, or the baptismal font in Christian churches.

#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.

#Jyeshtha #Nakshatra is the 18th Nakshatra as per Hindu #astrology in Scorpionis #constellation.

Jyeshta is ruled by #Indra, the ruler of the Gods. Indra is praised as the highest god in 250 hymns of the #Rigveda

इन्द्रस्य नु वीर्याणि प्र वोचं यानि चकार प्रथमानि वज्री ।
अहन्नहिमन्वपस्ततर्द प्र वक्षणा अभिनत्पर्वतानाम् ॥१।।
अहन्नहिं पर्वते शिश्रियाणं त्वष्टास्मै वज्रं स्वर्यं ततक्ष ।
वाश्रा इव धेनवः स्यन्दमाना अञ्जः समुद्रमव जग्मुरापः ॥२।।

1. Now I shall proclaim the heroic deeds of Indra, those foremost deeds that the mace-wielder performed: He smashed the serpent. He bowed out the waters. He split the bellies of the mountains.
2. He smashed the serpent resting on the mountain — for him Tvaṣṭar had fashioned the resounding [sunlike] mace. Like bellowing milk-cows, streaming out, the waters went straight down to the sea.

— Rigveda, 1.32.1–2

In the Brahmavaivarta Purana, Indra defeats Vritra and releases the waters. In post-Vedic texts, Indra’s importance declines, and he evolves into a minor deity in comparison to others in the Hindu pantheon, such as Shiva, Vishnu, or Devi. In Puranic mention, he becomes a source of nuisance rains sent out of anger with an intent to hurt mankind and Krishna as an avatar of Vishnu, comes to the rescue by lifting Mount Govardhana on his fingertip, and letting mankind shelter under the mountain till Indra exhausts his anger and relents. In the post-Vedic period, he rides a large, four-tusked white elephant called Airavata. The Sangam literature also describes Indhira Vizha (festival for Indra), the festival for want of rain, celebrated for one full month starting from the full moon in Chitrai and aspects of Indra as a deity are cognate to other Indo-European gods; they are thunder gods such as Thor, Perun, and Zeus who share parts of his heroic mythologies, act as king of gods, and all are linked to “rain and thunder”.

#Anuradha #Nakshatra is the 17th Nakshatra as per Hindu #astrology in Scorpionis #constellation.

Anuradha is ruled by Rig Vedic God #Mitra, the Divine Friend. Mitra is a divinity of Rig Vedic culture, whose function changed with time. In the Mitanni inscription of ancient Babylonian kingdom, Mitra is invoked as one of the protectors of treaties as captured below:

In the Rigveda, Mitra appears primarily in the dvandva compound Mitra-Varuna, which has essentially the same attributes as Varuna alone. In the late Vedic texts and the Brahmanas, Mitra is increasingly associated with the light of dawn and the morning sun (while Varuna becomes associated with the evening, and ultimately the night). In the post-Vedic texts — in which Mitra practically disappears — Mitra evolved into the patron divinity of friendship, and because he is “friend”, abhors all violence, even when sacred.

índram mitráṃ váruṇam agním āhur / átho divyáḥ sá suparṇó garútmān

ékaṃ sád víprā bahudhâ vadanty / agníṃ yamám mātaríśvānam āhuḥ

“They call him Indra, Mitra, Varuna, Agni / and he is heavenly nobly-winged Garutman.”

“To what is One, sages give many a title / they call it Agni, Yama, Matarisvan.” (trans. Griffith)

– #Rigveda 1.164.46

In the Atharvaveda, Mitra is associated with sunrise, and accordingly, Mitra is worshiped in the sunrise prayers of the Hindus. The morning upasthaana prayer, recited to the risen sun after contemplation on the sacred Gayatri mantra, is a collection of Vedic verses addressing Mitra.

Mitra is also the name of an Indo-Iranian divinity from which the names and some characteristics of Rigvedic Mitrá and Avestan Mithra derive. The name Mithra was adopted by the Greeks and Romans as Mithras, chief figure in the mystery religion of Mithraism. He is generally interpreted as Perseus constellation with edge of #Scorpio constellation and Orion as torch bearer as shown below.

#Vishakha #Nakshatra is the 16th Nakshatra as per Hindu #astrology in Librae #constellation.

Vishakha is ruled by #Indra and #Agni, who represent the powers of heat and lightning in the atmosphere.

#Indrāṇī is considered, “Queen of the Gods.” Among the Navagraha, she is associated with Śūkra (Venus) as his overruler. She is the consort of Indra and daughter of the Asura.

She is called the goddess of anger, wrath, and jealousy. She is also named Sachi/Shachi (Śakti), as well as Aindri, Vajri, Mahendri, Pulomaja, and Poulomi. A hymn in the #Rigveda describes her jealousy of rivals. Being the goddess of jealousy, she is believed to help in destroying jealousy.

According to ancient Vedas, she was a female shadow of Indra, but other Vedic literature suggests that she actually developed the idea of Śakti (what a fantastic “shadow”) and became the role model for all Devi in the later period. Unlike most other devi, Shachi/Indrāṇī is an independent force. In fact, rather than Indrāṇī being named after Indra, it’s Indra who was named after Indrāṇī.

Indrāṇī rides/is associated with lions and elephants and, like Indra, rides a charging white elephant. She is the essence of beauty and was referred to as “The Endless Beauty” in Hindu epics and very beautiful in the Rigveda, with exceptionally beautiful eyes (one thousand of them). According to the Taittiriya Brahman, Indra desires Indrāṇī as his wife above all others [simply] because of her captivating, voluptuous features. She’s dark-skinned, with two, four, or six arms and is armed with the Vajra (thunderbolt), goad, noose and lotus stalk. Adorned with variety of ornaments, she wears the kiriṭa mukuṭa.

Indrāṇī’s consort, Indra, killed her own father, Puloman, as he was an Asura. Indrāṇī and Indra were parents to Jayanta, Jayanti, Midhusa, Nilambara, Rbhus, Rsabha, and Chitragupta.

#Swati #Nakshatra is the 15th Nakshatra as per Hindu #astrology in #Bootes #constellation.

Swati is ruled by #Vayu, the #God of the #Wind. The word for air (Vayu) or wind (Pavana) is one of the classical elements in Hinduism.

Pavan is also a common Hindu name. Pavana played an important role in Anjana’s begetting Hanuman as her child so Hanuman is also called Pavanaputra “son of Pavana” and Vāyuputra.

In the hymns, Vayu is “described as having ‘exceptional beauty’ and moving noisily in his shining coach, driven by two or forty-nine or one-thousand white and purple horses. A white banner is his main attribute.” Like the other atmospheric deities, he is a “fighter and destroyer”, “powerful and heroic.”

“Vayu, in his aspect of up lifter of oblation. This elevation of the heart is also worship, and thus the devas come near to faith, inspired by Vayu.”

Rig Veda 10, 151

Vāyu-Vāta is the Avestan language name of a dual-natured Zoroastrian divinity of the wind (Vayu) and of the atmosphere (Vata). The names are also used independently of one another, with ‘Vayu’ occurring more frequently than ‘Vata’, but even when used independently still representing the other aspect.

Both the words Vāta and Vāyu have almost identical meanings in Sanskrit or Vedic traditions. Although there is no god representing Vata in Vedic religion, there is the god Vayu representing air as mentioned above. The word Vata is still used today in many Indian languages to denote atmosphere. Atmosphere in Hindi, Marathi etc., is called Vatavaran.

In East Asian Buddhism, Vāyu is a Dharmapala and often classed as one of the Twelve Devas grouped together as directional guardians. He presides over the northwest direction.

In Japan, he is called “Fūten”. He is included with the other eleven devas, which include Taishakuten (Śakra/Indra), Katen (Agni), Enmaten (Yama), Rasetsuten (Nirṛti/Rākṣasa), Ishanaten (Īśāna), Bishamonten (Vaiśravaṇa/Kubera), Suiten (Varuna) Bonten (Brahmā), Jiten (Pṛthivī), Nitten (Sūrya/Āditya), and Gatten (Candra).

#Chitra #Nakshatra is the 14th Nakshatra as per Hindu #astrology.

Chitra is ruled by #Tvastar, the #Cosmic #craftsman. #Vishwakarma is the divine draftsman of the whole universe and the official builder of all the gods’ palaces. Below are some of his contributions as per Hindu mythological scriptures.

· #Indra’s Palace: After Indra became the king of the devas, he requested Vishwakarma to make palace for him. After Indra killed Vritra, Indra had Vishwakarma redo the palace and make it more grand multitudinous times.

· Palace for Kubera: This palace near Alakapuri is said to be most beautiful gardens in the universe. These were created by Vishwakarma.

· On an invitation of Lord Krishna, He also built the city “Indraprastha” for Pandavas.

· Lankapuri: This city, made entirely of gold, was originally created by Vishwakarma and as per mythology, demons like Sumali and his brothers seized the city from Vishwakarma and later, Ravana took over and started ruling. After Ravana’s death in the Ramayana, Vibhishana, his righteous brother, ruled for a very long time.

· Dwaraka: When Jarasandha kept attacking the Yadavas at Mathura, Krishna and the Yadavas moved to an island near Saurashtra. There, Krishna invoked Vishwakarma to build a beautiful city.

· Yamapuri: Vishwakarma also created Yamapuri for God Yama and his other advisors and ministers.

· Shraddhavati: This is the city of Varuna. It was built by Vishwakarma in the ocean.

In the Yajurveda, Purusha Sukta and the tenth mandala of the Rigveda, his character and attributes are merged with the concept of Hiranyagharbha/Prajapathy or Brahma. Tvastar is mentioned 65 times in the Ṛgveda and is the former of the bodies of men and animals,’ and invoked when desiring offspring, called garbha-pati or the lord of the womb.

As per the Ṛgveda, Tvastar, also known as Rathakāra, belongs to the clan of the Bhṛgus. Similarly, as mentioned in the epic Mahabharata, Tvastar or the Rathakāra is Śukrācārya’s son, Śukrācārya (the mentor of the asuras) is Bhṛgu’s grandson and Vāruṇibhṛgu’s son. He is the father of Saranyu, who twice bears twins to Vivasvat (RV 8.26.21), including Yama and Yami, also identified as the first humans. Tvastar is a solar deity in the Mahabharata and the Harivaṃśa. He is mentioned as the son of Kāśyapa and Aditi and is said to have made the three worlds with pieces of the Surya.

#Hasta #Nakshatra is the 13th Nakshatra as per Hindu #astrology. The Hasta Nakshatra ranges from degrees 10–23:20 and falls in the #Virgo sign.

The presiding deity of Hasta Nakshatra is #Savitur — the #Sun #God. It is said and believed that this God helps in imparting transforming and creative energy. Sun God is also believed to be the inspiration giver

He is sometimes associated with #Surya or at other times distinguished from Surya, “the Sun”. When considered distinct from the Sun proper, he is conceived of as the divine influence or vivifying power of the Sun. The Sun before sunrise is called Savitur, and after sunrise until sunset it is called Sūrya. Savitur is celebrated in eleven whole hymns of the #RigVeda and in parts of many others, his name being mentioned about 170 times in aggregate.

Savitur disappeared as an independent deity from the Hindu pantheon after the end of the Vedic period, but in modern Hinduism his name occurs in the well-known #Gayatri #mantra (taken from book three of the Rigveda; RV 3.62.10), which is therefore also known as the Sāvitur. The Gāyatrī mantra is dedicated to Savituṛ, a Vedic Sun deity.

oṃ bhūr bhuvaḥ svaḥ

tat savitur vareṇyaṃ

bhargo devasya dhīmahi

dhiyo yo naḥ prachodayāt

– Rigveda 3.62.10

Explanation: May we attain that excellent glory of Savitur the god: So, may he stimulate our prayers

According to Yaska, #Sanskrit scholar of the 5th century BCE, who made various attempts to interpret difficult Vedic mythologies in his work Nirukta (Etymology) (12, 12), the time of Savitr’s appearance is when darkness has been removed. Sayanacharya (on Rig Veda) remarks that before his rising the sun is called Savitr, but from his rising to his setting, Surya.

Savitr has golden arms and is broad-handed or beautiful-handed. He has a golden chariot with a golden axle, which is omni-form, just as he himself can assume all forms. Savitr has been attributed to as upholding the movables and immovable, which signifies the maintenance of Ṛta (Cosmic Order). Savitr is a beneficent god who acts as protector of all beings, who are provident and guard the world of spirits. Being an Aditya, Savitr is true to the Eternal Order and act as the score exacter.

#astrology with asteroids

#Punarvasu is a #Nakshatra in Hindu #astrology, which refers to the two brightest stars in the #constellation of #Gemini: #Castor and #Pollux. The stars Castor and Pollux (or in Greek, Polydeukes) were twin half-brothers in Greek and Roman mythology, known together as the Dioscuri. In Latin the twins are also known as the Gemini (literally “twins”)

The word Punarvasu is derived from Puna+ Vasu, which means return, renewal, restoration or repetition. The goddess of Punarvasu is #Aditi (Mother of all Sun Gods)

As per Mahabharata (Śānti.34.96–98), Budha ( #Mercury God) came to Aditi’s home for food and not getting served when he was hungry, he curses her to take re-birth again and again. She was mother for Vivasvān second time. Yima was son of Vivasvan.

If you observe correctly, Sanskrit #Yama is also interpreted as “the twin,” perhaps reflecting an Indo-Iranian belief in a primordial Yama and Yami pair. We can locate parallels between Avestan Yima and Sanskrit Yama, for instance, Yima was the son of Vivaŋhat, who in turn corresponds to the Vedic Vivasvat, “he who shines out”, a divinity of the Sun.

The Gods, the children of Aditi, are basically and essentially are different from children of Diti, who are demons. This nakshatra is all about getting things back to it.

This is the #birth nakshatra of Lord #Rama as captured in Valmiki Ramayana.

“On completion of the ritual six seasons have passed by and then in the twelfth month, on the ninth day of Chaitra month [April–May,] when the presiding deity of ruling star of the day is Aditi, where the ruling star of day is Punarvasu (Nakshatra), the asterism is in the ascendant, and when five of the nine planets viz., Sun, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, and Venus are at their highest position, when Jupiter with Moon is ascendant in Cancer, and when day is advancing, then Queen Kausalya gave birth to a son with all the divine attributes like lotus-red eyes, lengthy arms, roseate lips, voice like drumbeat, and who took birth to delight the Ikshwaku dynasty, who is adored by all the worlds, and who is the greatly blessed epitome of Vishnu, namely Rama.”
— Book I: Bala Kanda, Ramayana by Valmiki, Chapter (Sarga) 18, Verse 8, 9, 10 and 11
