The fighter who does the research first

Anuradha Nakshatra

Anuradha is one of my favourite Nakshatras, and you'd find that out very soon. It's my favourite as it's ruled by Lord Mitra. Lord Mitra is known to be the keeper of peace and Lord Mitra is also known to be the Lord of Promises. Honesty and truthfulness are directly associated with Lord Mitra and therefore with this Nakshatra. Immediately you can understand why this is my favourite Nakshatra. Well, the world needs more peace and Lord Mitra is all about that.

Lord Mitra now holds us accountable for our word. If we've said something to someone that we'll do, we must do it as part of our duty as a human being. That quality of Lord Mitra is behind it. An Anuradha native will always come across as very honest, truthful and reliable.

It is not only about honesty and truthfulness; it is also about maintaining relations peacefully. That's very important. That's very, very important and it's directly linked to Anuradha and therefore you'd find diplomats, for example, having a strong Anuradha influence.

Mars in Anuradha

Mars in Anuradha, I believe, makes excellent researchers, particularly in the engineering sector. Not only are you going to be an excellent researcher, you're also going to be highly skilful. This can even translate to you being responsible for keeping peace in the society, like peacekeeping forces and the defence forces that countries have. Your future can be in that sector.

You'd have the ability to apply your education in a practical way. Anuradha is all about education and exploration and retaining one's learnings, but Mars is about application. The application of your knowledge can translate to you being an entrepreneur, an innovator particularly. Everything you do, you'll be technically very sound, and this combination can lead to you fighting for others.

Lawyers are seen with Mars in Anuradha. Anuradha, as I've mentioned, is all about maintaining peace in relations. Lord Mitra is known to be the Lord of Promises. If there's a contract two parties have signed and one person has failed to fulfil the obligation, a Mars Anuradha can fight for the one who has suffered.

Lawyers specialising particularly in mergers and acquisitions can have Mars in Anuradha. Here Mars Anuradha is not very different from Mars Uttara Phalguni. There is some similarity with Mars in Uttara Phalguni. A Mars-Anuradha-like person I'd not say is a social worker.

I have been associating social work with Anuradha. I'd say Mars Anuradha is going to lead to you being a social activist. You'll have a purpose, a goal that you have to accomplish. The native would be very fond of travel and can also be involved in adventures.

The native might be very risk-inclined whether it's in exploration on a physical plane or on a mental plane. The native would take chances, and the power of dedication linked to Anuradha, the passion and drive linked to Mars, and the dedication and honesty linked to Anuradha make this a very, very strong position. The major downside is going to be the native isn't going to be a team player. The native would want independence, ownership, and it's also going to be the case that others may find it difficult to match the passion and drive a Mars Anuradha native has.

In pursuit of one's goals the native is likely to go to the extreme. It's an interesting position. The native has the ability to achieve extraordinary things in my view.
