Wanting to do it alone

Shravana Nakshatra

Shravana falls in the sign of Capricorn and, as per mythology, it is ruled by Lord Vishnu.

Lord Vishnu is the preserver of the universe. He supervises every activity that takes place. He's behind the laws of nature. Lord Vishnu is the most powerful. He's all-pervading. He has defined the process and procedure behind any activity, whether it's growing fruits and vegetables through the water cycle. He's also responsible for law and order. He makes sure that the universe keeps running peacefully in an orderly fashion. That is his prime duty and therefore the Shravana native would also have a similar role in the society.

The native might organise things on a large scale and may define rules and regulations to be followed. The native may also be a protector of societal norms, the upholder of law. That is what Shravana is all about. Lord Vishnu resides, as per mythology, in a remote part of the universe and that is symbolic of the eyes of supervision that Lord Vishnu is known to possess. He's supervising everything. He's seeing everything. He's making sure the cosmic law is followed. He's making sure there's peace. So the native would also be in such a position in the society where, from a distance, the native is supervising things, supervising large-scale projects.

Mars in Shravana

A Mars-in-Shravana-like person would be excellent, firstly, at organising a large-scale project. The native would be a planner, an organiser, a scheduler to make sure all aspects of the project are running efficiently, properly, in an orderly fashion. You can rely on a Mars-in-Shravana-like person to make sure the project is on track and is going to finish on time. I mentioned a Shravana native can step in whenever the native sees injustice, and therefore I'd linked Shravana to law and order.

I find that a Mars-in-Shravana-like individual can have a background in law, like those petitions for public welfare filed by lawyers saying that something is wrong in society and we have to do something about it. Public interest litigators, I believe, can have Mars in Shravana. Shravana is all about supervising the society, therefore I believe the native's ambitions are also going to be on a large scale rather than solving issues on a small scale like a theft or a divorce. The native might be more inclined towards fighting the injustice we are doing to the environment and therefore might be fighting alongside environmentalists.

The native's style of conversation can be very direct, pinpointed, straightforward, and this is one of the positions where the native may not be a very patient listener unlike the character of Shravana as Mars is all about action. The native would want to get to the point quickly like a barrister in a courtroom. There's no point talking about philosophies. Mars would want facts, figures.

Mars is excellent at building things and therefore together the native can have a future in the automotive sector, particularly for example designing an engine used in a high-speed vehicle or aerospace engineering or something similar. Here Mars and Saturn are coming together and therefore the native would be very resilient and technically very sound and the native would go by the book, go by the rules and regulations assigned to the native. The native would be a stickler for process and procedure. The native would make sure order is maintained.

So much so I think a Mars-in-Shravana-like native can even be a leader in peacekeeping forces. Please keep in view I'm using the word peacekeeping. That is the function of Moon. That is also the function of Saturn.

One of the downsides I see is the native wanting to do things all by oneself. The approach the native might have would also be that of an outcast and the native would be very driven by material success as this Nakshatra's Guna is Rajasic. The native would be very restless and would be very eager to achieve one's goals and accomplish one's mission and the native might also emotionally torment oneself. The native may take on such a big project.

The native may feel the burden of that big project at an emotional level. Despite all of this I find Mars in Shravana to be a strong position. I think the native can be an inspiration to people around oneself. That's my view.
