Love treated as a mission

Purva Bhadrapada Nakshatra

Purva Bhadrapada, as per mythology, is ruled by Lord Aja Ekapada. This Nakshatra belongs to revolutionaries. Lord Aja Ekapada is known to be the one-legged unborn one and that one-legged form is compared to the power of lightning. He is represented by the single bolt of lightning or he's the lightning itself.

When lightning strikes it burns everything at once, it strikes rapidly, suddenly, that is the character of Lord Aja Ekapada. The native too, a Purva Bhadrapada native too, would have this power to bring a change on a large-scale, suddenly and quickly. The destructive power of the lightning or fire is highlighted by the main symbol of this Nakshatra and that is the front legs of a funeral cot which directly links this Nakshatra to themes of death and destruction. No revolution can occur without fighting a battle.

You can't have peace without bloodshed as they say and that is what this Nakshatra is all about, bringing a change even by force. It wouldn't be of any surprise to you that this Nakshatra has the nature belonging to Ugra which translates to fierce. The native would go all out, all eggs in one basket to achieve one's mission, one's goal. It's a good time for me to introduce that this Nakshatra is ruled by Jupiter.

Venus in Purva Bhadrapada

When Venus is in Purva Bhadrapada you could revolutionise the money sector. Venus signifies all careers in finance or you could be behind an invention in design. Venus signifies the entire design sector. But the most important aspect of this position is linked to love.

Firstly I think there'll be this underlying passion and drive that's due to this Ugra nature and perhaps this domineering attitude you might have in relationships. This Ugra side would be visible in your love life and those big ideas, living happily ever after, living in a quiet place in a remote island, all of them might originate from this position here. Venus and Jupiter coming together. The good news here is even if your ideas of romance can be impractical you'd be willing to work things out and you'd be a very picky person.

Who you like, what you see in that person. You'd look at love as a mission. A mission to find the one who you feel you can be inspired by. Venus also is known for a softer maternal side like Moon.

Here the sattvic guna, the selfless guna would be visible in your mannerism. You'd look after your loved ones. This combination also belongs to art directors as Venus and Jupiter coming together. Venus signifies our desires on a material plane but here I think you'd have the capability to rise above the pleasures on a material plane.

You may start off wanting the big things in life but later may realise that those things are not leading to any lasting happiness. Lastly in any revolution you need the support of various parties. If you're starting a political movement you need the support of bankers for example to support your cause. A Venus-in-Purva-Bhadrapada individual could play that role, that bridge.

You'd have the ability to bring people together for a common cause and that is going to be one of the greatest strengths the native would have. Overall I find this position to be a strong one, that's my view.
