Good morning beautiful people, welcome to my channel.
We are in the 18th Nakshatra of Jishtha,
which is falling in Scorpio, Coral by Ketu of course.
I am stuck in there.
So we are studying the Instincts and Totems.
We are in the Mercury Roll Nakshatra.
Before we get into it, just a quick housekeeping stuff.
I have moved much of the stuff into membership area
if you want to follow the previous Nakshatras
or any of my 400 odd videos content.
Just a fire and I am in the process of making the basic structure of Jyatesh
as a course and I will stick it also later.
Okay, you can find all the podcast there.
So Instincts and Totems, this is a different kind of level
we are trying to get our head into.
The animal and the bird representation of Nakshatra
and what it could mean besides the normal ones.
Since we are less spoken about the bird, I couldn't find any resource.
Anyway, let's get into what we can do.
So the bird representation of Jishtha,
Jishtha remember has the struggle of being the elder one.
Jishtha in Sanskrit means the elder one.
It falls in the constellation of Antares.
Okay.
And the struggle of Jishtha or Mercury rule Nakshatra
is the culmination of the last nine Nakshatras.
So for example, Aries going into Akshalesha
or Magha going into Jishtha or Mul are going towards Revati.
Right, this completes the cycle.
It's the end of a Nakshatra based cycle, you might say.
So all the energies that a soul has accumulated
starting from a particular Ketu rule Nakshatra
culminates in the Mercury rule Nakshatra.
Right, 93 times 27.
So in Magha, you might say it started with
what do I get power?
How do I gain power?
In Jishtha, there is the energy therefore of insecurity
of how do I keep that power?
Jishtha is inherently quite insecure.
They want authority.
They tend to demand authority.
They want to be the elder one.
If it's coming in the first house, we are studying instincts and totems.
Right, it's a scorpio ascendant and it comes ascendant in Jishtha.
Typically, these people would tend to be insecure
or become even the elder one in the family.
Or treat everyone even if they are younger
as if I am the elder one in the family.
So there is an energy of being the elder one, the insecure elder one.
Right.
And so their life lesson is rising of power
and retaliation towards exposed hidden enemies.
Which means they have to be defensive rather than offensive.
This is the life lesson which is opposite to how they behave.
They tend to offend it to gain authority.
So the life lesson is almost reverse of this.
Anyway, so the bullet representation is a ready Sheldak.
Omniyavur is diet.
Sheldaks are omnivores.
They eat the diet that is both aquatic plants, insects and small aquatic creatures.
Curious one, isn't it?
The symbols of Jishtha are quite deep.
Scorpio, right?
Everything is quite deep and hidden.
Wetland habitat.
They have a natural inclination to reside in the wetland habitat
such as lakes, rivers, marshes.
Again, Scorpio being a water sign.
There itself it's suggestive that these people will do well being around
still water bodies generally for Scorpio.
Monogamous pairings.
They are monogamous in their instinct of mating.
They are also found in small to large groups, social behavior.
Vocalization and communication.
Ready Sheldaks use vocalization as body language.
Or animals and birds typically are common.
We just browsing through them.
Deer on the other hand, this is a male deer.
Anuradha was a female deer.
This is a doe.
Jishtha on the other hand is a male deer.
So there's a difference in gender approach here.
Okay.
Jishtha is more outward going than anuradha is within Scorpio I'm saying.
Deer are herbivores with instinctual preference for glazing on vegetation.
Her behavior.
So male and female deers have common traits of instinct.
We are starting just one, four, five, eight and 12 houses.
And how it can affect every nakshatra using this symbology.
With respect to the life lesson, alertness and flight and fight response.
Deers have a strong vigilance in the fight or flight response,
often fleeing from perceived threats to avoid predation.
Camouflage and adaptability.
Deers have evolved to blend into the natural surroundings, displaying innate camouflage.
And they are adapted to various environments from forests to grasslands.
So this is the general energy of the ready-shelled duck and deer.
Now let's see the totems and how we can get to that life lesson, the curious life lesson.
Because these are not aggressive animals as you can see over.
They're not stalking anyone.
They're pretty harmless creatures and it's appearing in Scorpio.
So you might say right off the bat that this suggests to the Scorpio,
you need to be more calm.
You need to be having more defensive rather than offensive attitude towards anything.
Okay, let's see the totem part.
Now regarding the totem part of ready-shelled duck.
It is all about love and partnership.
Ready-shelled ducks are often used as symbols of love and partnership, emphasizing the importance of nurturing, loving relationships and enduring partnerships.
So this is, you might say, innocence graduation of Anuradha Nakshantada previous one also.
It's still in Scorpio.
The two sides of Scorpio you might say are Anuradha and Jaishtha.
Jaishtha would want power in a relationship.
We'll come to the instinct houses later to deal with it.
Ready-shelled ducks also are known for their vocalizations and communication.
Their totem symbolize the value of effective communication, self-expression and exchange of ideas.
Being a Mercury, Ravana, Kshatriya can do a lot of good with this approach.
Jaishtha, understanding others.
Your sense of power will come from understanding others.
Jaishtha is, can be absorbent.
Scorpio is very absorbent energy.
Adaptability and migration.
Ready-shelled ducks are migratory birds symbolizing.
Adaptability to changing environments and ability to navigate life's transitions.
Very important Jaishtha, especially in the last two padas because it becomes a bandha and ta going into Moola Nakshatra.
Start of an encycl.
Ability to adapt.
Community and social bonds.
Ready-shelled ducks often live in colonies and rely on social bonds for protection and support.
Their totem represents the importance of community, cooperation and interconnectedness with others.
We shall see how this plays out when we come to instinct later on here.
Fertility and nurturing.
Ready-shelled ducks are known for their nurturing behavior towards their young.
Their totem symbolize concepts of fertility, parents who have been caring for others,
especially if it appears in the fifth house.
If Scorpio appears and Jaishtha appears in the fifth house, your attitude will be Jaishtha-like depending upon the planet and significations.
If it's eight years, seven, six, five, four, cancer ascendant, Scorpio appears in the fifth house.
It becomes more of a defensive attitude towards everything.
You want to be the elder one.
If you have been a sitting there, you might have a spouse which behaves like you as the other elder one amongst you both.
Power struggle.
If it's moon, you might have a mother like that.
If it's Mercury, you might have siblings like that.
You see what I'm saying.
Let's get to the deer part. Deer signifies gentleness and grace.
We just saw that in Anuradha-Nakshatra.
Deers are often symbols of gentleness and grace, emphasizing the importance of caring oneself with poise and elegance.
Intuition, sensitivity and intuition.
Good for Scorpio.
Deers are known for their keen sense of instincts, symbolizes the importance of sensitive to one's surroundings and trusting one's intuition.
Adaptability and alertness.
They're highly vigilant to potential dangers being sensitive creatures.
Being in Scorpio and being in Jaishtha makes you by default very alert, especially if you're the first house to a Scorpio Ascendant.
Always on the guard. Always looking out for potential attackers.
Deers are often associated with innocence and purity.
They tend to be introverted creatures. The Scorpio introversion comes here in Jaishtha and Anuradha, but in different formats.
Connection to nature.
So nature will help them a lot. Water bodies will help them a lot.
To sort of blend into their energy pattern.
Now let's see how it affects the instinctual houses for Scorpio Ascendant.
Then if it appears here, which is a live Ascendant, Cancer Ascendant.
And if it appears for Aries.
And if it appears for Sagittarius. Let's see that.
Now let's see briefly the instinct houses and how Jaishtha could play in any one of these.
If you have Ascendant in Jaishtha.
Or if Jaishtha is in the fourth house, which is Leo.
Or fifth house, which is Cancer.
Or eighth house, which is Aries. Or twelfth house, which becomes Sagittarius. How does this affect?
Okay, let's get into it.
The first house. Ascendant.
So therefore many people who are born in Jaishtha in first house and Ascendant could be the elder ones in the family.
That's one thing Jaishtha means elder one.
If they are in the fourth house, they have the heart, which wants the emotional body more to be like,
I'm the elder one, I know better.
Have a better emotional grounding than you do.
They might want leadership within their local community, which Leo wants, right?
Scorpio phones in the fourth house.
The emotional heart center and wanting power and status in local community.
See the power rising of power theme.
It starts in Magha and culminates in Jaishtha.
But it has to be silent.
There only it has power. Scorpio.
Power comes in silence.
If it's in fifth house, which is in the case of cancer, it will show this with its children, with its education.
I will silently rise to power.
Says Jaishtha.
I will study. I will use the power of Mercury.
And I will use the power of Mars in my chart, wherever it is to rise to that power.
Right?
That's what it'll say in fifth house.
In eighth house being the house of transformation, it changes form.
If there are planets here, it might be the transformative planet where it graduates and moves on to Moola.
The next next shri tana.
The sense of security might be affected by it.
If you have Mercury in eighth house for Aries, you sense a security for your siblings might be a very transformative issue.
They might change through life because transformative nakshetra being in Scorpio.
The 12th house on the other hand, which is for Sagittarius ascendents, happens to be more of your hidden subconscious, your dream world subconscious time.
Here it will affect saying subconsciously might want to desire a lot of power.
Subconsciously, it will ask you to give away your power for the sake of community at large because 12th house is a house of giving away things.
In this case, your power might be given towards the community.
More community work.
See what I'm saying.
So Scorpio in this one becomes more of law enforcement kind of people because it is seeking that retaliation and it is seeking the power quite aggressive, silently aggressive.
It's like the legal system.
It's like the police system which stands by to protect.
That's the power of Scorpio which comes into play here.
Okay.
The next one we shall deal with 19th one Moola.
Now we are going towards Sagittarius.
Speaking of which, think of Mercury rule nakshetras.
I'll leave you with this much as the holding point of all the nine previous nakshetras.
It's like a part which it has gathered all the lessons in karma from the previous nine nakshetras ends in Mercury nakshetras.
It becomes quite a challenging one, all these Mercury nakshetras because now their intellect is very sharp.
It has got all the life lessons and now it wants to use it for something.
That something differs from one nakshetra to another.
Yes, but it's a point in having two same nakshetras.
Anyway, I'll see you in the next. Take care.
Yeah, be safe.
