Sun in Purva Ashada ~ React smartly and remain undefeated

The Sun, the day star and planet of Self is in Purva Ashadha from December 28th, 2024 to January 10th 2025, the nakshatra which translates to ‘The Unconquered’.

This planet represents a heroic quest, where you show courage and overcome obstacles on your path to wisdom. Purvashadha is ruled by Apas, the personification of water, which may play a role in your affairs, as you spend time near the sea, possibly travelling by ship, swimming, or simply enjoying a drink. You may be ‘watering’ your plans for the future and have an open and philosophical approach that gets the best from every opportunity.

Purva’s energy is bound up with a desire for invincibility, and it’s Shakti or unique power, is for Invigoration and Renewal. With the Sun’s energy shining a light on hidden aspects of your life, you overcome opposition and revitalize your confidence and personal charisma. You have a particularly direct and competitive style during this transit, which sees you powering through obstacles but can also create friction in your close affairs.

Any discussion or argument has the potential to get heated, and though this nakshatra is known to be a good debater, take care before airing your differences too openly. The Sun is a major marker of time and this point in the year may see you in reflective mode, and setting goals and resolutions. The New Moon in Purvashadha on December 30th is an especially excellent time to make an affirmation, as you get free of the old and make way for the new.
