The meaning of the word ‘Moola’ is a bunch of #roots. Some consider that #Mula Nakshatra in #Astrology is the #root of our solar system. According to Yajurveda, Sur or Gods took oath on this Nakshathra to eliminate Asura or demons from the root.
#Moola #Nakshatra in Vedic 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: A #Tail of a #Lion
The meaning of Moola is a bunch of roots, and the symbol for Moola is a tail of a lion. During this period, the brain starts to develop into a more complex organ. As we know, a network of neurons in the brain looks very similar to the roots of a tree. Therefore, this symbol makes perfect sense.
Some people also consider the symbol as an #elephant #goad, and this also suggests an organ that guides our actions and decisions. This is because the elephant is a symbol of intelligence and memory. The elephant is considered a symbol of intelligence and memory because of the size of its brain.
Deity: Goddess #Nirhuthi #niriti
Nirhuthi is a Goddess of Moola Nakshatra. Nirhuthi is the Goddess of deadly hidden realms and sorrows. She is the owner of the southwest. The word Nirhutha means ‘absence of’. She is dark, dressed in dark clothes, wears ornaments of iron, and has golden hair.

Characteristics of Moola Nakshatra in Astrology
The animal of Moola Nakshatra is a male wolf or a male dog.
A dog is the most fascinating creature on this planet.
It can love to the point that it will give its life for you, or it can bite and throttle someone’s bone if they cross their territory.
They are needy, emotional, and pack animals. They always want to be with you and feel abandoned when you go to work.
Dogs are not directly connected with a wolf’s lineage as many think, rather a different species of wolf, which lived 30,000 years ago, but there are few similarities.
On the other hand, Wolves are wild, sharp, smart and know how to pack hunt.
Wolves are some of the smartest hunters in the wild.
The most distant feature of the wolf is their howling during full moon nights or when the member of the pack dies.
Mula natives get attached very quickly and don’t want to let go, just like a dog, which is the animal symbol of the Nakshatra.
Mula is the root, and the male dog develops deep roots not only in their master’s heart but also with other family members.
Mula natives are attached to their family, spouse, children or friends.
Once they are your friends, they are your friends regardless.
A male dog is more playful most of the time vs a female dog.
Mula natives are quite playful, but their playfulness can be painful, just like the sharp paws of the puppy or dog.
They can play rough, and they don’t realize they have hurt another person.
The symbol of Mula Nakshatra is the roots, roots of a tree, plant or even our own roots.
Roots grow underground hence, invisible.
We only see what is in front of us growing above the ground.
Mula natives are the embodiment of their roots, their past, their ancestors.
They love to be detectives and search the past like archaeologists or palaeontologists.
The roots can be completely uprooted, especially when taking out a dead plant or removing trees to clear out a land.
Native who have clusters of Mula in their chart will always tend to uproot their life without a hint.
Even if everything is fine in a relationship, career, or idea, they just completely bulldoze and clear it out to pave the way for something new.
Mula natives may love studying the roots of plants and trees.
Sometimes, the basic meaning of things would be the biggest karma of a person, like an Ashwini Nakshatra native would be training horses for a living.
Mula natives would also love eating things that are buried underground like potatoes, beets, ginger, garlic, onion; some even have a fascination with cemeteries and graveyards.
The deity of Moola Nakshatra is Nirhuthi, the Goddess of destruction.
She is the Goddess who brings new creation after destruction.
She is described as having golden locks, dark, and connected with the underworld.
She is very much similar to Goddess Kali.
Goddess Nirhuthi rules the South-West direction and is supposed to have come from the anus of Brahma in the creation myth.
There are variations of Daksha’s yagna story in which Goddess Nirriti is supposed to have accompanied Rudra to destroy Daksha’s yagna.
Kali is the fierce form of Goddess Durga, who stopped her destruction only after Shiva himself surrendered to her feet.
Nirhuthi is also connected with Goddess Dhumavati, one of the ten Mahavidyas, as well as Goddess Alakshmi, also called as Jyeshtha, the Goddess of poverty. She is the elder sister of Lakshmi.
Lakshmi, the Goddess of prosperity, is supposed to visit Jyeshtha, her elder sister, every Saturday on the Pipal tree.
Lakshmiji follows and visits their home, who pays respect to the Pipal tree on Saturday.
Kali is connected to the black hole that is driving the centre of the Milky Way, and her connection with Shiva is pointing to the Ardra-Moola Nakshatra axis, with a black hole at the centre of the Milky Way.
After reading the mythology, the first impression we have of Mula natives is that they are followers of Kali, especially in Indian culture.
Someone in a foreign country from Celtic culture may worship a dark Goddess like Carawin or Erzulie Dantor in Voodoo, which is a white magic to heal and protect people.
Laxmiji blesses a person who worships the Pipal tree where Jyeshtha resides and shows great love and admiration of her elder sibling.
Mula natives will protect their siblings, and when someone does well for their siblings, they will bow and protect them like their own siblings.
Just like the fierce Goddess Kali, these natives are fierce too.
They will challenge, stand up to anyone and take out the roots of beliefs and tradition instantly.
Like their yoni animal, they can become Pit Bulls.
The position of Mula in the sky points towards the supermassive black hole region of the galaxy.
So far, we know nothing about inside a black hole, no one has been near it, inside it, and most are theoretical observations of scientific models.
Mula natives are as mysterious as the black hole; they can suddenly be comedians and quickly turn into killers like “The Joker”.
They are quite unpredictable, with chaotic energy around them.
We do know via science that light doesn’t escape the black hole, and it tends to suck everything around it; for this reason, a Mula native must redirect their energy into a positive spiritual path because they will see how quickly they start sucking the energy of other people towards them and others would enjoy sinking into their spiritual hole.
However, the general population is neither spiritual nor desires to walk on that path.
A Mula person can be quite intense to be around, where you may feel they suck your energy.
A black hole crushes everything that comes near it. Hence, the Mula native also loves to crush things. For example, if they drink a can of coke, they will crush it and throw it away, or someone who loves to see cars and other materials is crushed and destroyed by monster trucks or tanks.
Attributes of Moola Nakshatra in Astrology
Spread from 0’00” to 13’20” in Sagittarius (Dhanu) Sign.
It also means the ‘opposite’ or ‘reverse’. Moola is not one of the good stars, which is evident from the fact that the deity is Alakshmi, i.e. God of ill luck.
Moola signifies roots, that is, everything of a basic nature. Its motion is finite and limited. It does not go beyond its narrow orbit.
Old servant, pedlar of seeds, physician administering herbal seed remedies – every such thing is determined from this star.
The Moola native looks into scientific, literary, philosophy and other basic subjects.
This star governs mortgage and mortgaged property, and its horizon is not rural but urban.

Remedies for Moola Nakshatra in Vedic Astrology
Quality of Mula Nakshatra
Moola is a Tikshna Nakshatra which should be used for activities such as destruction, conquer and secretive activities away from the light of the world.
Caste of Mula Nakshatra
The caste of Moola Nakshatra is a butcher; hence, like Swati Nakshatra, these natives do not take things lightly.
The job of Mula natives is to come and take something out, to destroy something in order to bring something new.
For instance, a doctor with Ashwini Nakshatra will always discover cures for their diabetic patient to save their infected leg. In contrast, a Moola doctor will amputate it in order to save the patient’s life.
Sound of Mula Nakshatra
Yay- pada 1, Yo- pada 2, Bhaa- pada 3, Bhee- pada 4, sound has an extremely important role to play with Nakshatra.
Everything we do, say, buy, wear, drive has a name attached to it known as brand.
One must look at their chart with an accurate time of birth and see where the Nakshatra of Mula is in their chart, which means where is the sign of Sagittarius.
If someone is a Capricorn ascendant, then the 12th house would be Sagittarius; when using such brands or name that starts with such sounds would be beneficial for spiritual progress, foreign travels, astral travel and seeking solitude; but Moola Nakshatra should be used with caution.
It is a Tikshna Nakshatra, which can instigate wars and combat.
