Finding the root cause

Mula Nakshatra

I'd like to share a quotation from the Bhagavad Gita which says our intellect is in the mode of goodness. If we understand what is proper action, what is improper, what is duty, what is not duty, what is to be feared and what not to be feared, what is liberating and what is binding. If we have the reasoning ability to understand the differences, our intellect is in the mode of goodness. Mula falls entirely in the sign of Sagittarius and as per mythology more importantly it's ruled by goddess Nirrti.

Goddess Nirrti has many aspects to her personality and two of them are she's known to be behind mass destruction and she's also known to be the mother of places which have been abandoned and of people who have been discriminated against in the society. Goddess Nirrti in her destructive form is known to mutilate everything at sight. Imagine a wildfire, a cyclone, a hurricane, such natural disasters destroy everything they touch and goddess Nirrti has this thankless job of destruction as destruction is an important first step for a new creation and in this destruction she takes the lives of the ones most vulnerable.

This may paint a very negative picture of goddess Nirrti but we must understand that destruction is necessary and she has the thankless job. Take your mind back to the pandemic. I think COVID-19 was a very Mula-like event as during that time the most vulnerable, the old, the ones who had health issues were the ones who had to lose their lives and perhaps goddess Nirrti had to do this job. Loss of life and destruction can be a huge lesson for humanity. She plays that role.

Sun in Mula

A Sun-in-Mula individual, in my view, firstly, can inspire people with one's ability to solve complicated problems by getting to the root cause of the problem. Like lead scientists or lead engineers in the oil and gas sector, where they have to look at various aspects of the problem to find a solution. Like recently, miners in India were stuck and scientists were asked to come together to release them. They looked into the problem, looked at every aspect and devised a solution.

They were finally able to release the miners. Such problem solving, which also has a social aspect to it, is very Mula-like. Medical research, therefore, directly, in my view, is linked to Sun in Mula. Sun is known to eradicate diseases and goddess Nirrti has a maternal side.

In leadership roles, you are going to lead by example and you'd remain practical, realistic. Your ideas won't be lofty, but they would be well-researched. You'd be known for a well-thought-out plan, a well-researched plan. The downside I see is the native becoming excessively competitive.

The desire to defeat one's opponents, whether it's on a political front or in business sector or elsewhere. The native would want to win. That is Sun's character. In Mula, given its demonic temperament, the native can get into these battles and may have a no-mercy policy.

Due to that, the native may not be excellent at building relations. Some might say the native suffers from an ego problem and the ego might stem from the belief the native would have that the native knows more. The native has gone through things so thoroughly that the native is unwilling to accept someone else's version. The native can have a career in research and academics in whichever field it depends on where Ketu is placed, where Jupiter is placed, and in which sign is it falling in the Navamsha and where that sign ruler is placed in both the charts.

On the whole, I find this position to be strong. I think your leadership would be inspirational. If you follow a path of spirituality, you can go to the extreme, completely isolating yourself from your family and friends. Going to the extreme is one of the major downsides, but you have the capability to achieve extraordinary things, particularly in the field of research. That's my view.
