Jyeshtha Nakshatra
Jyeshtha falls entirely in the sign of Scorpio and, as per mythology, is ruled by Lord Indra. Lord Indra as per mythology is the eldest son of Goddess Aditi and Sage Kashyapa. Goddess Aditi rules the Nakshatra of Punarvasu.
The sons of Goddess Aditi are known as the Adityas. They reside in the heavens and the eldest son is Lord Indra.
Since he's the eldest he's also given the responsibility of protecting the heavens. He is the king of heavens. Naturally the first thing about Jyeshtha is leadership and kingship. Lord Indra is mentioned in the Rig Veda many times as someone very powerful, fierce, bold, possessing a thousand powers. He's known for his not only physical strength but also mental prowess. He is the protector of the gods and the destroyer of evil and in the process of protection he's known to have defeated the most demonic of demons.
Mars in Jyeshtha
Courage and action
Mars in Jyeshtha is a strong position. Leadership would be on the basis of your engineering skills, your technical ability. This is an excellent position for someone who aspires to be an innovator in whichever field. The native would be known to solve highly complicated problems.
We are combining Mars and Mercury together. A strong Mars position can be behind the native's interest in complex mathematics. Mercury is the planet of reason. A Mars-Mercury individual can be a strategic planner, a problem solver, the best there can be.
The native can also aspire to be an entrepreneur. Mars is behind entrepreneurship. The native would be not afraid to take chances. The native would be very risk-inclined and more often than not, the native would succeed.
Mars and Jyeshtha, both of them, are about defeating one's enemies, not only on the basis of one's technical skills or mental prowess, but also on the basis of their physical strength. Soldiers have this position. Earlier I had given you the example of King Charles, who served in the Royal Air Force. The native's fighting spirit can make the native very popular.
One of the major downsides would be that the native goes to the extreme in defeating one's enemies. In the process, the native may completely destroy one's opponents. This can lead to the native not being an excellent team player. If the native isn't in a position of a leader, the native would continually challenge the leadership.
The Tikshna, sharp and pinpointed nature of Jyeshtha would be seen in the native's character. The native can get into arguments quickly. Mars and Mercury here are coming together. The demonic side would also be on display.
If challenged, the native would do everything possible to prove the other person wrong. Yes, this position has many negatives, but there are many positives too. The native can be behind inventions. The native's style of leadership and competitiveness can be quite inspirational. That's my view.
Thank you for your time.
