The Sun, symbol of light and the self, is in Purva Bhadrapada from March 4th to 18th, the nakshatra crossing the zodiacal signs of Aquarius and Pisces.
Your energy and focus takes on a new urgency, and Purva Bhadrapada’s Shakti is the Power of Spiritual Fire, which gives this period a ritual, cleansing quality. By transit, the Sun illuminates wherever it lands, and sunlight is the most powerful antiseptic, so you can shine a light into the dark and unconscious corners of your world.
Purva’s deity is Ajaikapada, a form of Rudra, the Storm God, though in this case it is a fire-storm in the sense of making a sacrifice – chanting and fasting are precious now, but don’t take your severe attitude too far.
This nakshatra’s other symbol is the front side of a bed or cot, which shows you clearing old baggage as much as gathering new status and possessions. Be mindful that hasty, short term decisions may reverberate for longer in your world than you realize, and you are left to handle the fallout.
Tie up old business before moving on with a new effort. You encounter pushy characters who may be hiding their own agendas and masking their ambitions, and some stop at nothing to succeed. The Sun is joined in this transit by its planetary friend, broad-ranging Jupiter, which gives you grand ideas and a taste for the philosophical.
Think big, but be prepared to back your plans up with effort, and use any openings that come your way in a practical way. Up to March 14th especially, you are a little more risk-averse, and may experiment only when you see concrete results – remember, the big prize comes for seeing an ambitious plan through from the start to the end.
