Jyeshtha - Zakra Kettai (Tamil) - Kētta (Malayalam) - Thrikketta - Pauramdara - Zakradaivata - Varta Nron (Tibetan) Nakshatra trikona of Budha: Ashlesha , Jyestha , Revati
Indra The Eighteenth Nakshatra 16:40 - 30:00 Vrischika (Scorpio) - Location = Antares: alpha Scorpionis - -- The Circle of Stars Antares = "The Rival of Mars" "The Eldest", "The Most Certain", "The Senior" guardian of Kubera's treasure "I know better than you" "Power & seniority combined with a certain amount of danger" "eldest of the Moon god's Queens" ~~ Valerie Roebuck, Circle, p. 99
"Indra desired, "May I gain supremacy among the gods." One who makes the appropriate offering to Indra, to Jyestha, gains supremacy among his peers. Those born under Jyestha seek to be the best the highest but on their own, by their own effort, as individuals, not by relying on others. They often do their best when left alone." ~~ David Frawley, Fruits of Worshipping Each Nakshatra
Female Jyestha lagna Chandra in Jyestha [intense mental-emotional control]
Barbara's viewpoint on Jyestha - "I know better than you": Anuradha's alliance-building negotiations have become prolonged. In the chaotic aftermath of Vishakha followed by still-incomplete negotiations for order within Anuradha, the people need a senior leader to bring the conflicted factions together. Thus Jyestha often finds social destiny as a politician (Thomas Jefferson, Angela D. Merkel, John Forbes Kerry, Elizabeth Dole) or an influential religious leader (Mother Teresa, Tammy Faye Bakker, Elizabeth Clare Prophet).
This one speaks with articulate (Budha) seniority, with calm certainty in the rightness of one's own view. This one is the self-appointed authority. This one claims to receive direction from the Divine. This is Jyestha, the respected Elder. Jyestha is often associated with cult leadership . However, Jyestha's proclaimed certainty may be deceptive to less discriminating minds. Jyestha must maintain the highest standards of personal integrity in order to withstand the temptation to misuse one's inherent seductive charisma.
Of all 27 Nakshatra, Jyestha is the most likely or the most tempted to misuse one's power to control others. The Jyestha native faces lifelong potential for self-deception. Jyestha may fall prey to the belief that, in a time of desperate tribal need for leadership, one has been "Chosen". As the people beg for leadership, Jyestha may slip into delusion, believing that all of one's thoughts actions respond only to the highest powers. A "reality check" on one's own humble humanity is permanently in order for the Jyestha native! Cf. Mother Teresa who had super-strong Kuja super-strong Budha. Note her awareness of her Jyestha predicament, how she kept it under control through vigorous humility practice. Jyestha can be a "control freak". (If Chandra- Jyestha, obsessive emotional control.) If there is a Jyestha person in your life, things will be easier in the relationship when the Jyestha person is allowed to have firm control over his or her physical, emotional, mental, social, spiritual destiny. Outsiders will be disregarded. One may however extend positive influence to the Jyestha native through subtle psychic suggestion (in case the Jyestha is still a child) through parental role-modeling. Jyestha has a fixed-direction mentality physical habit, but also a very fluid psychic aura. Jyestha must rigorously discipline a tendency to appropriate power through psycho-mental manipulation. Jyestha should avoid the temptation to believe that one "knows better" what is good for the partner or the people. Jyestha is advised to wait to assume leadership until public trust is fully earned through a track record of transparent moral action. If self-discipline, including even the mortification of the flesh, is in place, then Jyestha may indeed act as a great transformative channel for the progress of human civilization
Jyestha is a neechcha position for Chandra and it must be handled very carefully. Good and bad results from the seniority and certainty behavior, according to the rest of the nativity. My favorite example of a Jyestha moon gone overboard is Elizabeth Clare Prophet. There are others. The native tends to be unable to acknowledge that one's insights are a product of many influences and contributions from many people and sources, both in bodies and out of bodies. Classic Moon for a purported psychic channeler. Cf. Albert Einstein. Brilliant, yes, but he characteristically claimed that his insights were born of whole cloth, as it were direct from God. Historians can see that he was participating in a group of trained minds who were sharing ideas interactively. Each person's viewpoint is a product of history, of one's culture, of collaborative education since childhood, of one's teachers, of what one reads, hears, talk about, dreams. Jyestha is not a good moon for sharing credit with others. Naturally a person with sufficient self-awareness can channel and constrain this liability, but it is more common for the native to feel chosen as an exclusive channel and as a result to fail to acknowledge those who have helped and informed.
