Adrishya Vyaktarupa Sahasra Jidad Nandha Jitha
It's a beautiful line from Vishnu Sahasranama, bit of a tongue twister there.
It means one who is victorious, one who is forever victorious, Anandha Jitha.
So why are we speaking about victory in Vishnu Sahasranama?
Because we come to the second 21st Nakshatra of Uttarashada, second victorious one, the second invincible one.
Pay close attention to this Nakshatra because we are in this shift going through right now, Pluto is passing through this Nakshatra.
And it will do so for quite a number of years.
So what is this Uttarashada Nakshatra about?
Well, let's see where it falls in first.
It falls between 26 degrees, 40 minutes of Sagittarius going up till 10 degrees of Capricorn.
Now we are moving from the end of Sagittarius to some degrees into Capricorn.
Now Capricorn being 10th house and all about external manifestation, external material power, etc.
This Nakshatra is all about that.
So as Capricornian as it gets.
And it has two Vargottama padas, the first and the second, the Dharma and Artha.
Because Dharma, Sagittarius goes into Sagittarius in Navamsa.
And Artha, Capricorn goes into Capricorn in Navamsa.
So this has got very good angles over there.
If you want to look at it closely, where is your planets and points falling into?
Especially if it is Saturn or Jupiter or something like that, which will make you do stuff in the world,
depending upon what your inclinations are.
So the nature of this Nakshatra is fixed.
They are fixed type of Nakshatra, which means if your personal planets are points of Saturn or Jupiter or anything falls in this,
they will be a very fixed type in nature.
Gana is a manusha, so they are still about making practical things in the earth happen.
The deity is Vishwadevas or universal gods. These are a whole bunch of them.
Therefore the mantra is Vishnu Svasrama. He is the Lord of Vishwadevas.
So the energy, we are talking about energy and life themes of Nakshatras only here.
We will do other examinations later.
The energy of Uttara Asad is maintaining victory and status through responsibility, responsible action,
especially in Padha 1, Sagittarius, Exalted.
In Purva Asad we started to go for victory.
Now once you have victory in something, you have to maintain that victory. That is Uttara Asad.
Another theme of this Nakshatra is they work for larger collective causes.
Capricorn 101.
Because Capricorn is all about working for the others, working for the masses, ruled by Saturn.
Saturn wants to work for the masses.
It is victory of good over negativity.
Large causes may be in Capricorn, going into Aquarius, in the third Padha.
Victory of good over negativity is like a final victory.
They can be pioneers. They have a lot of positivity. They love tradition.
They have positive ancestral connection.
And they have very high ideals, especially in first Padha, because Sagittarius exalted there.
Going into Sagittarius in Namamsha.
Establishment of new institutions.
That could be another theme of these people.
They could become workaholics. They have a theme of orthodoxy.
Tradition and orthodox. Sagittarius and Capricorn there.
Finding practical applications is their job.
They need to be receptive, especially in Padha too. Why?
Because they can be stubborn in not receiving other people's suggestions.
Thinking, no, it all kind of thing. This could not be doing good for these people.
They need to be receptive.
They have a theme of late success in life and struggles in earlier part of life.
In earlier part of life, they may have a lot of struggles.
But later, they will have a lot of success also.
Another theme which is kind of queer is the spouse is wiser than them,
especially with the fourth Padha, Capricorn going into Pisces.
So what's a life lesson in summary?
Individual wisdom and action merging with collective cause is the ultimate victory,
which means removing separatism.
This is what Pluto is going through right now in the heavens.
This particular Anakshatra. So what is it doing in the world? I'll leave it to you.
Individual wisdom and action merging with collective cause is the ultimate victory.
Meaning what in this context? Meaning that victory which cannot be snatched away from you.
It's permanent victory. Uttarashada is about permanent victory.
Not temporary wins here and there.
So it's a very powerful nakshatra.
Mantra I recommend is Vishnu Sahasranama.
The ages active for this nakshatra is 5, 12, 24, 36, 44, 48, 59, 61, 67, 72, 77 and 83.
Highly active nakshatra.
So depending upon which ages are running in your personal chart right now
and if you have Uttarashada prominently playing, this will be active when you are of this age.
That's what it means.
Next we shall be doing the Sravananakshatra, meanwhile taking.
