Historical Significance of Vishakha Nakshatra in Astrology | Symbolism of Vishakha Nakhsatra in Astrology

• The yoni animal of Vishakha Nakshatra is the male tiger. The tiger hunts around 3:30-4:00 am when it’s completely quiet, and certain animals are just starting to wake up.
• A Vishakha native will always wake up around this time or at least become aware that they were asleep, and now they are up. Some may not do anything specific, while some may love to have midnight snacks.
• Tigers also hunt at night due to their retinal adaptation to darkness; they can see extremely clearly in the dark, so a tiger or tigress can see quite well in the dark.
• Vishakha Nakshatra natives can easily adapt to darkness much quicker and faster than others, especially when luminaries like Sun or Moon are in this Nakshatra.
• A tiger is an extremely careful animal who is quiet when hunting, and you wouldn’t know what hit you.
• He would suddenly launch at you with an attack.
• Vishakha natives are also very quiet, but when they are pushed constantly, they will suddenly lunge and attack you, and they don’t just attack to show, but to cause some harm, so you know next time not to provoke them.
• A tiger has bangle patches all around its body, which discourages predators and shows that they are present and not to be messed with.
• The symbolism of Vishakha Nakshatra is a triumphal arch, potter’s wheel. When a triumphal arch is looked at, the “arch” can be noticed, which is very important in the life of a Vishakha native.
• The symbol of an arch is connected with pillars and is considered a place of regal royal statuses like government buildings, palaces, and luxury hotels.
• This symbolism represents the return of warriors from a winning battlefield.
• In olden days, when a champion or solider came back from winning the battle, they were ceremonially greeted under a triumphant gate.
• Whenever a Vishaka native enters a home or a workplace with an arch or pillars, they achieve quick success but suddenly also lose interest in either professional or personal life, depending upon which gates the arch represents.
• The other symbolism of Vishakha is the potter’s wheel. There is also a type of wheel that is used in directing ships and yachts, which can also be symbolized by this wheel.
• The potter’s wheel shows the creative and artistic side of Vishakha natives. They know how to sculpt something from nothing and how to get a business or venture from thin air.
• The wheel goes around, and the pottery is created in the middle. Vishakha natives think the world revolves around them, and they become too self-centered and egotistical.
• The pottery wheel is also in a shape of a galaxy on the finger of Vishnu and Krishna, and this again signifies that Vishakha natives think they run and rule the world.
• The wheel also represents what goes around, comes around. Vishaka natives are more susceptible in getting quick back karma based on their actions.
• Vishakha Nakshatra is the only Nakshatra with two different deities, with each of them having their own individual Nakshatras.
• The deities are Indra, who presides over Jyeshtha Nakshatra, and Agni, who rules Krittika Nakshatra. Indra is the king of the Gods, who is the champion, and is seen as the one enjoying all the luxuries, drinking soma, & gambling.
• He is the king of Gods, yet he is the most insecure, as he is not willing to let go of his throne and ends up acting out of his insecurities.
• Agni is the God of fire who, along with Indra, drinks soma. Agni transfers the offerings from the men to the Gods and back. He is present in all the fire rituals, especially yagnas & havans done by the men to fulfil their desires.
• The story goes that Agni was filled with great hunger and needed to burn down the Khandava forest to quench his hunger. However, Takshaka, the serpent king, lived in the forest and was a friend of Indra.
• Hence, Indra would bring down rains to prevent Agni from consuming the forest.
• After obtaining their divine weapons and the chariot from Varuna, Arjuna and Krishna created a canopy of arrows, which allowed Agni to consume the forest.
• Indra was happy that his son, Arjuna, was able to complete his task and blessed him.
• Indra also killed Visvarupa, son of Tvashta or Vishwakarma. As a result, Tvashta created Vritra to avenge Visvarupa’s killing, but unfortunately, he too was slayed by Indra with his Vajra, prepared from the bones of Rishi Dadhichi.
• Vishakha natives are extremely insecure and cannot take defeat by another person.
• They want to be the champion; they want to be the first and will do whatever it takes to achieve it.
• Since Vishakha represents two deities, it shows a divide, a division in these natives.
• They are always split into decisions, what to do, what not to do, whether to pick this or that, and they usually have a split personality or mood disorder due to such confusion in their life.
• Vishakha natives are extremely clever in accomplishing their mission in life.
• Vishakha natives can easily penetrate into their enemy’s heart by befriending them, and when they know what hurts the person the most, they will use that against them.
• Vishakha Nakshatra is about Indra and Agni and shows that at one point in their life, Vishakha natives find a fascination with fire rituals, raw fire pit, barbeque or even a smoker.
• In mythology, Indra is seen being obsessed with Ahilya, the wife of sage Gautam.
• He started stalking and pursuing her even after she was married. He tricked his way and transformed himself into her husband’s body, and made love to her.
• Ahilya, though knowing something was wrong, surrendered and made love. When her husband walked into the hut and saw them both, he cursed Indra to have his body covered with 1000 yonis (vagina). Ashamed, he went into isolation, and when other Gods found this, they pleaded to Brahma to help Indra.
• Brahma went to sage Gautam and requested that a thousand yonis be turned into thousand eyes. The wish was granted.
• The above mythology shows the sexual obsession of a Vishakha native. At one point in their life, they will seduce someone else’s spouse and even be in danger of getting caught.
• Vishakha natives would be obsessed with porn, constant masturbation, and always having a lustful eye for every beautiful female or male.
• The thousand eyes of Indra transforms into the obsession of spying on others, having an obsession with spying on others, especially on women.
• Vishakha natives simply always want to bring down the heavens to the Earth. These natives want to have a lavish house, a bar in the house, beautiful paintings.
• Most of the time, Vishakha men love painting of classic nude women or dancing women.
• This is because, in Indra’s palace, there were dancers, parties, and all the pleasure of the heaven.
