Leading by example

Uttara Ashadha Nakshatra

Uttara Ashadha falls in the sign of Sagittarius, the first Pada, and the remaining three Padas fall in the sign of Capricorn. It's one of the most formidable nakshatras, as it's jointly ruled by all gods. In Uttara Ashadha, all gods come together to defeat dark forces, demonic forces of the universe. This immediately is a sign of a large-scale collaborative effort for a cause, fighting for social issues.

All gods coming together to defeat dark forces is the essence of Uttara Ashadha. You find individuals fighting climate change. They come together in large numbers and they're trying to generate awareness. Others are fighting poverty and hunger in some ways.

There are organisations, large-scale, nationwide, worldwide organisations fighting hunger and poverty. Others are fighting public health challenges. During COVID, we saw many initiatives where people come together to provide help. In other cases, people come together to fight social injustice of some kind.

Saturn in Uttara Ashadha

A Saturn-in-Uttara-Ashadha individual is a social worker. Saturn is directly linked to public service and Uttara Ashadha is all about fighting for the society. If you find this position in one of the career-related houses in your chart, a career in social work or politics or similar careers are possible. The greatest quality would be your resilience, the never-give-up attitude.

You're ready not only for a big fight, but for a very long-drawn fight. Some issues require constant effort, hard work, patience, and the native would be ready for such challenges. I find this position excellent for the ones who are working for the government. Sun and Saturn are the two planets directly linked to government work, and here they come together: Saturn now falls in the nakshatra ruled by Sun.

Government workers of any kind can have Saturn in Uttara Ashadha. Government workers who are responsible for significant work in the society like improving healthcare service or improving infrastructure which improves supply of food and water, or the ones working in repairing houses, protecting people from extreme weather. Bureaucrats essentially responsible for long-term planning centred around protection, safety, and welfare. Naturally politicians are also seen from this position.

The native would lead by example. The quality the native would have would be that the native wouldn't ask any team member to do something which the native wouldn't do. The native's leadership style would be inspirational. Lastly I think the native would be excellent at managing a big team involved in a large-scale project of any kind.

Despite the difficult relationship between Sun and Saturn I find this position to be a strong position.
