Now let us study the nakshatrapadas of Pushya
nakshatra, the eighth one. First of the Saturn
nakshatras falling into the sign of cancer. Saturn
nakshatras have an underlying theme of something
to do with work, something to do with karma,
owing to the people in one or the other way.
The other two nakshatras being Anuradha and Uttarabhadrapada.
Remember, Just to recap, I have covered this
before in other ones. Saturn Nakshatras fall
in water science, right in Cancer, in Scorpio
and in Pisces, which means it has a depth of
Karma relating to some emotion, somewhere. Okay?
Just keep that in mind as the backdrop as we
move forward. In this one, in addition to the
previous ones mentioned here, we are going to
deal with the Pada of it. So the first Pada,
Now as a general rule for Pushya people, you
might see something like a natural arrogance
from a very young age, especially if the moon
is here or if Ascendant is here. A sort of a
superiority complex, even without achieving anything.
And here's another bizarre fact. Normal people
will take revenge in a day or two. These people
plan for years and wait for their turn to destroy
you. So don't take anybody with Pusher people,
especially Ascendant or Moon. Okay? If they get
hurt or embarrassed or unhappy with the situation,
they go in a silent mode and do not talk to the
person. Pusher is a... has got the energy of
Jupiter in it. So you might want to take care
of that because Pushya is ruled by Brahaspati,
the Guru of the Gods themselves. And it has a
Saturn nakshatra. So you might say it has both
the energy of Jupiter and of Saturn. Let's go
by Pada now, first Pada. cancer to Leo has a
212 relationship so these people might hold leadership
positions Leo think 212 here if you're unsure
of what I'm saying listen to the other podcasts
on 212 68 11 3 those kind of relationship dynamics
so these people might do business or hold leadership
positions Leo related to emotions and deal with
local community cancer Cancer stands for your
local masses and make money through it. So this
is a leadership position if especially your 10th
lord or a bunch of planets placed in 10th house
are in Pushyana Kshetra in this first padam.
They will make money through it or with the father
and the boss. Fight with the father or boss may
end their career also. Loss of, see 212. To get
a position that is wrongful, don't do wrongful
stuff with the masses. Everything of cancer,
nakshatra has to do with masses. So the karma
is related to the masses somehow. Just because
you are leadership position, do not abuse that
power. That's what the first pada says. Second,
going into Virgo, these people might be freelance
worker, writer and so on. Because now we are
talking about a 3 -11 relationship between cancer
and Virgo. Virgo is third from cancer. Cancer
is 11th from Virgo. So there is an energy of
gaining with conscious effort. These people might
not be able to save much money. To earn money,
they do not care about environment and masses.
that's what you got to be once again there is
the energy of masses you got to be careful of
this don't accumulate karma relating to destroying
stuff in the masses in order to gain money Virgo
is daily work Virgo is continuous work so they
have to work continuously to earn money hard
work okay 3 -11 relationship typically doctors,
lawyers and sixth house profession people come
from here, especially if your tenth lord is here.
Professions relating to masses come from here.
How can you help? You need to do donations of
water conservation projects. Give to water conservation
projects, plant trees, take care of masses. This
will bring some peace. The fourth pada, third
pada, sorry, going from cancer to Libra, this
is a full ten relationship. So there is a karma
relating to work. and spouse. Too busy in career,
no work -life balance, neglect of spouse comes
from here because this Libra is a house of spouse.
Cannot see people require nurturing and caring
blind to that. They do not listen to loved ones,
their Libra again. They do not provide love and
support to their partner and also to other people
who serve them 10th place cancer. You have to
change this attitude. A lot about cancer is change
of attitude rather than something happening unconsciously
to you. Last with our cancer going to Scorpio
is a 9 -5 relationship. Cancer in natal, Scorpio
in naman shayas. People come to them seeking
advice. 9 -5 is a fifth position Scorpio seeking
advice about their kid's fifth position. Scorpio
is fifth to cancer. Mother may go through a lot
of troubles during pregnancy. Scorpio is fifth
to cancer. Should be very careful not to provide
wrong advice regarding kids. If you're doing
counselling or if you're in such kind of professions,
this might be there as a counselling career,
especially if your tenth lord is sitting here.
Should be careful what advice you give to the
children. The remedy could be not charging money
for kids support and help pregnant women in the
fourth Pada of Pushya. Now let us get into the
podcast and deep dive into what might happen
if different planets or points are placed here
and how that plays out in different parts of
this Pada of Pushya nakshatra. If you find something
interesting here for your Pushya nakshatra planets
or points, Do leave your comments in the comment
box. Enjoy and share. Often revered as one of
the most auspicious nakshatras, Pushya carries
the archetype of nourishment, care, and emotional
provision. But beneath the softness lies discipline,
power dynamics, and hidden karmic debts linked
to how and why one gives to others. Its deity,
Brihaspati, the Guru of the Gods, adds a moral
and philosophical depth to this nakshatra. Pushya
isn't just about giving. It's about giving with
responsibility, ethics, and maturity. The shadow
of this nakshatra emerges when nourishment becomes
conditional, or when emotional superiority masks
a lack of true care. Each pata transforms the
expression of nourishment through a different
Navamsa, shaping the soul's motivation to lead,
serve, relate, or protect. Let's break down the
four patas before we explore planetary behavior
within them. Motivation. Dharma, drive for recognition
and leadership in caregiving roles. Inner -outer
karma blueprint, outwardly sensitive, emotional,
and attached to community cancer rashi. Inwardly
proud, ambitious, and status -seeking Leo Navamsa.
This Pada gives leadership roles related to public
care, such as community heads, therapists, or
political figures dealing with the masses. But
the danger lies in gaining power through manipulative
emotional tactics or family betrayal. A fight
with father figures or bosses is likely, especially
if they stand in the way of a wrongful shortcut
to power. Elemental shift, water to earth. Motivation,
Artha nourishment becomes task -driven, measured,
and duty -bound. Inner -outer karma blueprint,
outwardly nurturing, service -minded, yet materially
motivated. Cancer rashy, inwardly critical, task
-focused, and emotionally detached. Virgo Navamsha.
This Pada turns caregiving into work. These people
are freelancers, medical workers, or public servants
who tirelessly earn but cannot save or find peace.
Emotional service becomes a checklist, and karmic
suffering arises when they ignore environmental
impact or collective healing. Karmic theme. Repetitive
overwork without inner fulfillment or social
responsibility. Growth path. Give to nature and
society conservation, tree planting, and silent
service. Pushyapada 3, 10th, 13th, 20th, Cancer.
Navamsa sign. Libra. Comma mental shift. Water
to air. Motivation. Comma seeks relational harmony
but neglects emotional reciprocity. Inner -outer
karma blueprint. Externally appears caring and
communicative, cancer rashi. Internally focused
on relational balance, aesthetics, and convenience,
Libra Navamsa. This is the caregiver who forgets
to care. They're too absorbed in work or image
to notice the emotional needs of others. There's
an imbalance in giving, especially towards spouses,
employees, or those in their care. Personal relationships
suffer when nourishment is absent or performative.
Karmic theme. Emotional avoidance masked as diplomacy.
Growth path, learn to genuinely support and listen,
even if it disrupts convenience or appearance.
Pushyapada 4, third degree 20, 16D40 cancer.
Scorpio moksha pada. Elemental shift, water to
water. Motivation, moksha deep psychological
nourishment, karmic weight of emotional legacy.
inner -outer karma blueprint, outwardly emotional
and intuitive, cancer -rashy, inwardly intense,
secretive, and psychologically complex, Scorpio
-Navamsa. People come to this pada for emotional
guidance, especially about children, family,
or parenting. However, if they manipulate that
trust, especially during vulnerable times like
pregnancy or early childhood, karmic consequences
unfold. This Pada has access to sacred emotional
power, but if abused, it creates lasting damage
to others and the self. Karmic theme? Misdirection
of nurturing energy leads to generational suffering.
Growth path? Protect the vulnerable without expectation
and serve mothers, children, and caregivers sincerely.
Pushya Pada Summary, The Four Faces of Nourishment.
Pada 1, Leo. seeks recognition in leadership
roles tied to care trap ego -based manipulation
of emotions growth lead with ethics not emotional
leverage potted seeks efficiency in service and
daily caregiving functional detachment from deeper
emotional responsibility growth ground service
and sincerity not mechanical effort seeks balance
between work beauty and relationships Trap, neglect
of love and support in favor of comfort or appearances.
Growth, listen, respond, and nourish relationships
beyond obligation. Pada 4, seeks emotional transformation
and sacred guidance. Trap, misuse of emotional
authority, especially in vulnerable matters.
Growth, protect the innocent, honor sacred trust,
and give without charge. Closing thought, in
pushia, true nourishment is measured by intention,
not output. Planets in Pushya Nakshatra reveal
whether the soul nurtures with integrity or masks
power games with a caring face. The karma here
is subtle, yet heavy. You are tested not just
on how much you give, but why, to whom, and under
what unspoken terms. Will you feed the body,
flatter the ego, or nourish the soul without
condition? Next in the series, Ashlesha Nakshatra,
where emotional wisdom turns serpentine and the
shadow side of nurturing emerges in full force.
Pushya nakshatra pada, with examples of planets,
exploring how planetary placement shapes karma,
expression, and evolution across the four patas.

as Pada the karma of how you care. In Pushya,
every planet asks one core question. What's the
intention behind your nurturing? Is it to heal,
to dominate, to be admired, or to serve quietly?
Each Pada of Pushya reveals how love becomes
karma, how duty becomes identity, and how care,
when rooted in purity, becomes liberation.
