Leadership people want to work for

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.

Sun in Jyeshtha

Sun in Jyeshtha is all about leadership. Sun belongs to the caste of a Kshatriya. Kshatriyas are known to lead the society, to protect the society and Jyeshtha is also all about that. Moreover Sun shares an excellent relationship with Mercury and Mars.

This makes for a very strong position. If you find Sun and Jyeshtha having an influence in one of your career-related houses or the first house linked to your personality, you would find yourself in a leader's position of some kind, particularly under the dasha of Sun. The generosity linked to Lord Indra would be prominent in your character. Sun is known for nobility, Sun is known for truthfulness.

Together people would see you as a leader who is not only inspirational but also someone they'd like to work for. As they would feel by working for a Sun-in-Jyeshtha individual, they would be rewarded fairly based on merit, based on their credentials. Like trade unions, they elect a leader, they feel the leader is trustworthy. There are many negotiations to be had and you want to trust someone who'll make sure everyone's interest will be taken into account and that is the confidence a Sun in Jyeshtha-like native would inspire in people.

Sun is known to be an eradicator of diseases and this Nakshatra has a lot to do with inventions. If Sun is in Jyeshtha and Mercury falls in a Nakshatra linked to the healthcare sector, the native can find a future in medical research. Sun however doesn't respond well to competition challenging one's authority. That's my view.

Sun is known to get into ego battles and that's exactly what I had mentioned about Lord Indra. A Sun-in-Jyeshtha native might have a very sensitive ego. If the native is challenged in one's professional life particularly, the native would become very defensive and would want to prove the other person wrong somehow. Like we get to see political figures get into a debate, no I think this is wrong, this is factually wrong.

Based on my research I found that to be true. Excessive competitiveness can be a downside to this position and unnecessarily getting into competition with others is another downside. Other than that I think the native would possess the extraordinary ability to defeat one's competition. No matter how difficult the competition is, the native would know how to win on a battlefield.

Whether the battlefield is in the business sector or on the political front, or it's actually a war, a Sun-in-Jyeshtha native knows how to win. If Mercury and Mars are better placed, the native can even be a leader on a spiritual plane. In that case the native would be able to control the vindictive side linked to Jyeshtha better, and the native would largely be known for one's generosity and leading people on the right path. That's my view of Sun in Jyeshtha.
