Characteristics of Purva Phalguni Nakshatra in Astrology
The yoni animal of Purva Phalgun Nakshatra is a female rat.
The native’s sexual drive and drive for pleasure are enormous because female rats can mate 500 times in 6 hours.
The story of Purva Phalguni is about Bhaga. He is the God of good fortune, material bliss, sex, lust, love, romance and rest.
He also brings in family inheritance.
The story goes that, when Daksha was doing a yagna, he invited every God to attend except Shiva, who was one of his daughter’s husband.
Shiva was not invited, especially due to Sati marrying him.
Sati committed suicide, which irked Shiva. Virabhadra came and destroyed the yagna and blinded Bhaga, the deity of Purva Phalguni.
This is why Purva Phalguni natives spend money blindly, and also, they get their eyes injured at some point, even if it’s a pink eye or mosquito bite around the eye area.
Purva Phalguni natives do not like staying around yagnas, cutting onions, for too long as their eyes start to itch easily.
Bhaga is a party animal, having sex parties, orgies, drinking and countless mates.
For Bhaga, sex and sexual expression was a way to experience divinity.
He is known to be brothers with Varuna and Indra.
All three brothers are known for partying, drinking and enjoying everything heavens has to offer.
The symbolism of this Nakshatra is a bed and fireplace.
This symbol is really known for the back legs of the bed, where the head rests.
When we think of a bed and fireplace, it’s the coziest place and perhaps the most romantic spot.
This is exactly what this Nakshatra energy represents.
It is about rest, sleep, love making and enjoying one’s time.
Purva Phalguni natives love sleeping on bed; they love sleeping in the middle of the day, wanting to oversleep in the morning, working from the bed, eating from the bed; pretty much whatever can be done sitting on a table, they rather do it on the bed.
Most of the time, jugs of water or many glasses of water near the bedside can also be found, as the opposite sign is Aquarius, the water bearer.
Purva Phalguni natives are also known to love eating salmon, extra salted foods, fried foods or junk food.
This habit stems from Bhaga’s big appetite for everything, especially food made of pure ghee, which means oily food.
The Phalguni is also known as the star of marriage. However, sex before marriage is seen with Purva and commitment of marriage through Uttara Phalguni Nakshatra. Still, natives of these Nakshatras not only strive for a strong bond in their relationship, but they are brilliant matchmakers.
If one needs someone to match them, then they should look for a Phalguni.
Sometimes, they even become professional matchmakers, not just in love and romance, but also in business.
