Purva Bhadrapada - Nakshatra

[Arvind Sivaraman]

Om Shirdi Sai Ram.
Namaste.

Purva Bhadrapada "The Former Happy Feet" 20.00 Aquarius to 3.20 Pisces
Symbol- sword or two front legs of a funeral cot, or a man with two faces
Deity - Ajaikapada the "one footed goat" a form of Rudra or and ancient fire dragon
Stars - Consists of two main stars in the body of Pegasus, the winged horse. Markab and Scheat: Markab is a star of honors and success with great sorrow. Scheat gives literary and poetic ability, with extreme misfortune.
Mythology - Ajaikpada is viewed as a form of Shiva, and a vehicle for the transport of Agni (fire), representing the cleansing spiritual power of fire. Ajaikapada is the unicorn, related to Rudra god of storms.
Indications - This is a transformational nakshatra where they will sacrifice themselves for a higher cause, to make a difference in the world. There is a passionate nature, a bit extreme and indulgent. The symbol of the man with two faces can refer to looking to the past and the future possibly at the time of death, or can mean someone who has a dark side they conceal from the world, or just two faced. Fearful, nervous, and angry they can be very cynical. Their lives sometimes are filled with sadness and problems. They must be careful of accidents and injuries. They are radicals and non-conformist, who have excellent speaking abilities to sway the masses, regardless of the consequences.

The First Auspicious Feet is sorrow till death -- or till disembodied -- or till Jnana. Rudra as angry killer of Brahma is here (should we say murderer?).

Rudra -- the Lord is also here. How paradoxical that the showerer of bliss has a special living quarter here; a quarter marked with sadness, cruelty, and pain. Paramhansa Ramakrishna and Albert Einstein both had double dose of Shiva of Purva Bhadrapada. Were they happy?
