Characteristics of Pushya Nakshatra in Astrology
The animal of Pushya Nakshatra is a #Goat.
Everyone mistakes the animal as a cow, but it’s the cow udder that is the symbolism of Pushya, not the animal.
Studying a goat will show a lot about a Pushya native. Goats have amazing eyes; they see everything around them, almost to 280º.
They see a wider perspective of the world compared to what we see, which is only around 90º, that too only 30º in focus.
Pushya natives see life in a very broad way, and they don’t feel they need to attach or focus on one specific thing; they want to know the world.
Goats have the ability to swallow food and later bring it back to chew it, and this shows Pushya natives swallow their food more than chewing because their digestive system is much stronger and cable of breaking down food without too much chewing.
Another way to look at this is that Pushya natives will always bring things from their past to show what they had to endure during that time.
If a friend hurts and makes up with them later, the native will remind how they hurt them, and it’s like bringing past food out onto their tongue.
There are some videos online of Goats fainting, which is simply a genetic disorder that doesn’t help them control their muscles.
Pushya natives are known to have vibrating muscles, twinkling in their fingers and sometimes they cannot control the movement of their hands as if they are getting cerebral palsy. This usually occurs with getting into a panic situation.
Goats are extremely protective of themselves and their young ones, which make sense with Pushya as it’s a Nakshatra of nourishing and lies in the sign of Cancer.
Pushya lies in the heart of Cancer, which means Saturn lies in the heart of all water signs.
It shows a lot about Saturn’s character, which is of a nourisher, emotional warrior or the one who shows us true nourishment, wealth and comfort.
It gives us the comfort of home, death, and a higher realm.
The story of Pushya is quite interesting.
Brihaspati (Jupiter), the deity of Pushya Nakshatra, is the Guru to Gods and was always busy doing yagnas, rituals and teaching Vedas.
He also taught law, politics, and economics.
Brihaspati was the most brilliant student except for Shukracharya (planet Venus).
As they grew up, Brihaspati became too engrossed in his teachings and works at the palace while Venus became the teacher of the asuras (demons), the new age workers.
Brihaspati ignored his family and wife, Tara. As a result, she eloped with Chandra (Moon) and became pregnant, having Budha (Mercury) as their son.
Jupiter waged war on Chandra and began to attack him with the army of devas, while Venus sided with Chandra because Jupiter ignored the most important dharma and karma towards his wife.
Venus helped Chandra in the war, and after the bloody battle, Jupiter realized his mistake, accepted Mercury as his step son, and took back Tara.
Attributes of Pushya Nakshatra in Astrology
Spread from 3’20” to 16’40” Cancer (Karka). Pushya etymologically means to nourish, which again means preserving, protecting, replenishing, multiplying, and strengthening. Everything of the very best comes within the scope of this star.
Enjoyment of wealth and prosperity follows from it. Guru is described as the great teacher of all creation, from amoebae to the Gods, and is the source of all knowledge and wisdom.
The mystery of creation is no mystery to him. He is the eloquent preceptor, the wise minister, and the head of all religious ceremonies.

Natives born in #Krittika #Nakshatra in #Astrology are skilled at the debate, overtaking conversation with logic and reason, intimidating people with intelligence, having a perfectionist outlook, judging others but also a tendency to “cut self”, inwardly judgmental, seeing the truth in own behaviour, using fire to burn away bad parts and purify the self, can appear harsh, yet be supportive, may be prone to giving tough love, can appear tough or stern, but deep inside are warm, sensitive, caring and very protective by nature.

Krittika Nakshatra in Astrology is one of the Adhomukhi Nakshatras (or the Nakshatras which have their mouths downwards). In these Nakshatras, things related to tanks, wells, temples, mining, digging, etc. can be auspiciously begun and performed.

Symbol: The #Razor
The symbol for Krittika Nakshatra is a #knife or a razor. The razor is sharp, and it shines in the sunlight, so the razor indicates the effect of agni or fire. Razor is also used to shave the head and face. These two limbs are suggested by Krittika, which mainly indicates a face.

Deity: The #Agni
Agni reflects powers to consume, transform and convey. Just born, he was presented as a tender baby who needs loving attention. He sparks, smokes, and grows stronger than his parents.

Deity 26⁰ 40” – 40
Yogathara Alcyone or Eta Tauri
Position South of Krittika
Apparent magnitude 2.96
Latitude 4⁰-03”-02’
Longitude 36⁰-8”-7’
Declination 24⁰-05”-2’
Characteristics of Krittika Nakshatra in Astrology
The animal of Krittika Nakshatra is a #goat. The goat is a resilient animal.
When a land needs to be cleared of any type of bushes, weed and grass so that something can be built, the builders hire a farmer to bring in goat and sheep to clear out the ground, which is the fastest and the best way.
They quickly cut through the grass and make way for a clear ground.
This, in a way, is what fire would do to living earth; turn it into ash and dust.
Goats also have a habit of biting or nibbling in order to communicate.
A native with this Nakshatra would usually bite or nib during lovemaking or show some form of passion.
Goats also head butt during combat. When trying to retain their position or take someone else’s position in the herd, such behavior can translate into a person who will butt head with their co-workers, friends, and bosses because they constantly want to fight for their position in life.
The element of Krittika is fire, which can go two ways, the fire of purification and the fire of destruction.
When we do rituals, havans, we are trying to invoke certain Gods who can come and clean our sins and bad energy around the house.
The other fire is the fire that has no control; it can go from a small matchstick to burning an entire forest.
Both do the job of cleaning and cleansing, but one is invoked, and the other goes out of control.
In the Rig Veda, the Agni God has a big appetite for Soma but was later cursed when he flirted with the wives of Saptarishis.
This much of information shows that Krittika Nakshatra has a bit of a perverted attitude of lust provided by Soma.
These natives can also be innocent and not realize their sexual behavior.
This does not mean every single Krittika native would have this behavior, it has to be supported by malefics, 12th Lord and 8th Lord connection, which are the houses of secrecy.
Krittika can actually make someone a priest as ironic as this statement.
This foundation comes due to the mythology of Agni and how Agni peeked and saw wives of Saptarishis naked and lusted after them.
He was then cursed by the rishis to have an insatiable sex appetite and lust, which would get him into trouble.
Yes, it is a curse when someone is lusting or is forced to lust after every single thing.
Krittika natives are seekers of truth because they want to cut through everything and get to the point.
They make excellent political leaders, CEOs and executives in a company.
The symbol of this Nakshatra is a knife, which can either cut through the truth, war, body, meat and vegetables in the kitchen, which is why they make great chefs.
In the kitchen, the two most essential things are fire and knife, which are represented by the Krittika Nakshatra.
When the Dharma or Artha Lord is in the Krittika Nakshatra, the native will be an excellent chef.

Attributes of Krittika Nakshatra in Astrology
This is the birth star of Chandra. Many constellations gather at the tail end of the Krittika group. It extends from Mesha 26’40”. The residuary 10’00” degree falls in Taurus (Vrishabha).
Lord (Adhipati) is Mangal and Shukra. Agni is the great purifier, consumer, and giver of light, heat, and brightness. Agni causes the fire of life and the drive. It is also the spark of life. Without fire, creation would not exist.
Agni is at the base of creation and the continuation of existence. It consumes everything. The fire of digestion in the human system and the external fire for cooking are only different manifestations of the same principle: Agni.
Agni is the symbol of brightness and brilliance, all weapons with fire-power. Other things of the same category come within the Krittika group’s range. The fire is considered a purifier, for it burns away all that is wicked, dark and dull, low and sinful and inauspicious in the world.
The junk thus blazes away, and only effulgence and light remain. Fire gives the earth its activity and dynamism and revives it after the spells of cold that periodically inflict the earth’s comatose condition.
