Radix Moon in Vishakha = "Fiery Lightning" -
brilliant & forceful
(Guru-Shukra-Indragni -- Guru-Kuja-Indragni)
Vishakha= thunderstorm: Indra = terrifying
thunder, and Agni = brilliant forks of lightening.
After
nature's awesome, frightening & amazing display of light and sound,
Indra & Agni bring the nourishing, essential Rain which feeds all of
Life.
Vishakha represents the "fork" of sky lightening and
also the "fork" of rushing rivers released by Indra. Indra
also rules earthquakes, whose terrible sound & fury can change the
fork of huge rivers.
Need for recognition of their power.
Forceful & brilliantly intelligent, known for quick, flashing wit
and Brilliant Intuition.
Knowing
the depth of their own power, Vishakha are patient geniuses of Timing.
Held in high regard by others, generally believed to be well-intentioned
& friendly.
Just as folks know from experience that the
scary thunderstorm will always bring nourishing rains, so Vishakha's
occasional outbursts of scathing or bombastic wit bring
insights that can evoke a great healing.
Vishakha natives like to
shake up placid conventions and shock the conventional expectations.
The native wields a penetrating emotional glance which feels like a strike of
lightening.
The results are almost always favorable because their jolting
comments and glare are followed by a movement toward alliance of warring
factions (Anuradha).
Physically, Vishakha natives often experience small
electrical shocks jolting their nervous systems, at a moment when
their consciousness requires recognition of truth. (Also true for
Vishaka in radix lagna.)
Downside of Vishakha can be jealousy of others'
material wealth & social status, esp. in the quarters of Kuja.
Vishakha's wisdom is brilliant but fleeting. This native may feel frustrated when
those moments of awe-struck recognition of their amazing power have
passed, and they have to get back to boring old work.
Vishakha's bursts of truth are unpredictable.
Typically they are not rewarded for their social contributions
until a body of their observations has built up over time.
Success after
mid-life only.

Raman says in 300 Important Combinations (p 304)
"when the Moon in Libra is aspected
by Mars or Saturn, the native is supposed to become cruel."...
"when the Moon is in the first quarter of Vishakya and
powerfully
aspected by Saturn and the Sun, he would not only be lacking humanitarian
feelings but would be completely impervious to human suffering".
