A second start in love

Punarvasu Nakshatra

Punarvasu falls in the signs of Gemini and Cancer and, as per mythology, is ruled by Goddess Aditi. She is the mother of all the gods known to reside in the heavens. That is why this Nakshatra is the most maternal section of the sky.

Goddess Aditi provides food, shelter and protection. Healthcare, hospitality, housing and industries that protect society are therefore directly linked to Punarvasu. I would also add public transport: while travelling by bus, train or aeroplane, we can feel the comfort of home.

Airlines brand themselves as offering a home in the sky, with the same peace as your own living room. Trains convey a similar message. Many overnight trains offer a comfortable and cosy cabin for travelling from one part of the world to another. Public transport is directly linked to Punarvasu. The Indian Railways' slogan is “Lifeline of the Nation”.

Venus in Punarvasu

When Venus is in Punarvasu, the person is very loving and caring, particularly if the sign is Gemini. Venus shares an excellent relationship with Mercury, which is Gemini's planetary ruler. Venus-Punarvasu-Gemini, the person can even be a creative writer. When you read the person's writings, you feel the warmth, you feel good instantly.

The person can be an artist creating music or art which instantly puts you in a great mood. These days, I listen to dreamscapes. When you listen to them, they instantly put you in a great mood. You feel very warm.

They can put you to sleep actually. And that is somewhat linked to Venus- Punarvasu, particularly the sign of Gemini. In terms of love, you'll want your partner to express love, care, warmth and affection just like you would. The pillars of your relationship or the pillars on which you'll decide whether you like someone or not romantically would be love and affection and warmth.

How comfortable you felt, how warm did you feel when you met your partner for the first time. Here, if a relationship or even marriage does not work out the first time around, this combination can lead to an opportunity for you to start your personal life again. What? It didn't happen the first time, you can try again.

The person can also have a business linked to money. Health insurance is a great example. Earlier, I had mentioned the example of travel insurance. Venus-Punarvasu links two main industries of our society, money and healthcare.

Like Moon in Punarvasu, Venus–Punarvasu can make an excellent counsellor. The person can also have a career in nursing, as Venus is about looking after people.

And Punarvasu has a very strong maternal side. The person would be very fond of travel. The pleasures that the person seeks from this life could be centred around cultural exposure or learning about different languages or meeting people from different backgrounds or simply travelling to places far away and sharing love with strangers. Like some people like to sit in a cafe, look at strangers.

Some people sit in a cafe or on public transport and smile at strangers. If you smile back, they feel that warmth and affection.

That is a very Venus-Punarvasu-like thing to have happened. Lastly, a few examples like a cafe encouraging people to sit around and feel like home. Or an Airbnb where you feel very welcomed. Such businesses are also linked to Venus in Punarvasu. That's my view.
