Big ideas for how society changes

Purva Bhadrapada Nakshatra

Purva Bhadrapada, as per mythology, is ruled by Lord Aja Ekapada. This Nakshatra belongs to revolutionaries. Lord Aja Ekapada is known to be the one-legged unborn one and that one-legged form is compared to the power of lightning. He is represented by the single bolt of lightning or he's the lightning itself.

When lightning strikes it burns everything at once, it strikes rapidly, suddenly, that is the character of Lord Aja Ekapada. The native too, a Purva Bhadrapada native too, would have this power to bring a change on a large-scale, suddenly and quickly. The destructive power of the lightning or fire is highlighted by the main symbol of this Nakshatra and that is the front legs of a funeral cot which directly links this Nakshatra to themes of death and destruction. No revolution can occur without fighting a battle.

You can't have peace without bloodshed as they say and that is what this Nakshatra is all about, bringing a change even by force. It wouldn't be of any surprise to you that this Nakshatra has the nature belonging to Ugra which translates to fierce. The native would go all out, all eggs in one basket to achieve one's mission, one's goal. It's a good time for me to introduce that this Nakshatra is ruled by Jupiter.

Jupiter in Purva Bhadrapada

When Jupiter is in Purva Bhadrapada, your fight would be on a philosophical plane. I think you'd have those big ideas, how society can be changed, how things can become better. To most people, those ideas might seem too grandiose, impractical, as here Jupiter is the main planetary energy that's in focus. Jupiter is in its own nakshatra.

If the others are not at the same philosophical plane as you, they'd not understand what you're going on about. The good news here is the ugra side linked to this nakshatra, the fierce side, would be controlled. Your fight would always be on principle. This would lead to you challenging the government in the court.

Your battlefield can be a courtroom rather than taking up arms in the street. Like you hear of public interest litigators. One way or the other, you're going to be a teacher, mentor, an inspiration to people. Either you're doing so as your work, or your way of life has been an inspiration.

Both Jupiter and this nakshatra belong to the same caste, that of a Brahmin. This combination can lead to plenty of opportunities for you to explore the world. Not only that, you'd also find plenty of opportunities to learn from life. Not only would you get to learn from life experience, you may also run into the right kind of teachers in life.

Jupiter is behind growth opportunities and this position therefore would present those opportunities. You may find yourself in a position in the society to be able to make a difference and that can even be on a spiritual plane. Jupiter shares an excellent relationship with Saturn, should this nakshatra fall in the sign of Aquarius. Together Jupiter and Saturn can lead to scientific discoveries.

Altogether I find this position to be a strong position. I think you'd have a good sense of right and wrong. You'd not find yourself fighting the wrong fight. That's my view.
