Chitra nakshatra Meanings
Psycho-socially compatible with Chitra * Tvastri Nakshatra of Mangala * Mangala the Champion leads the conquest of new worlds. He is a pioneer, an inventor, and a sexually driven competitor who rages in vital warfare, runs faster, drills deeper, and pursues His quarry without restraint. Mangala-ruled folk join in a band of brothers. Nakshatra of Chandra * Kuja and Chandra are mutual friends. - matrikaraka caretaking Chandra's rhythmic, parenting, routinized style provides a pleasing compliment to Mangala's direct-action warrior vigor.
Nakshatra of Surya * center-stage, sparklingly exceptional, brightly self-reflexive Surya finds a willing companion in dynamic, energized, boldly conquering Mangala. Together they surge with confidence, vitality, and force. Nakshatra of Brihaspati * Guru and Kuja are mutual friends.. Brihaspati's ever-expanding realm of inclusive doctrinal understanding is well supported by Mangala's unstoppable weapons of penetrating power. The priests join the conquistadors, generating new worlds. Psycho-socially neutral with Chitra * Tvastri Nakshatra of Shukra = materialistic, accumulating, sensual Shukra is all about gracious, accommodating, feminine magnetic attraction. Penetrating, pursuing, promoting Mangala is all about propulsive masculine yang energy. The Shukra partner adjusts and the Mangala partner propels. Together they can move forward as a team, so long as the roles are clear. Nakshatra of Rahu or Ketu * whether highly exciting [Rahu] or deeply observing [Ketu] the fascinating yet disruptive nodal styles are potentially useful to Mangala's pursuit of the win. In particular, Kuja and Ketu share rulership of the Vṛścika rashi, Positive relationships can support occult transformation, ascetic tantra, disaster response, or invasive healing. For other pursuits, discernment is required.
Psycho-socially uneasy with Chitra * Tvastri Nakshatra of Shani * Scared Shanaicarya is intimidated by aggressive Mangala. Yet from Kuja's perspective, Professor Shani is a harmless old guy who poses no threat to Mangala's forward challenge. Shani partners need systematic order while Mangala partners often feel trapped by too many rules. Except for certain specialties such as engineering or military, there are relatively few environments in which this pairing can succeed Most catalytic (challenging) nakshatra for Chitra * Tvastri Nakshatra of Budha * Budha can tolerate Mangala, But from Kuja's perspective, Professor Budha is a shatru-graha = arch-enemy. Active, competitive Mangala becomes profoundly annoyed by do-nothing, talking-head Budha. A Mangala-ruled nakshatra will generally use force to try to dominate a Budha-ruled nakshatra. Yet, Budha just keeps on talking.

Shakti of the Chitra nakshatra commentary by Pdt. David Frawley - https://www.vedanet.com
" Twashtar desired, "May I gain a wonderful progeny." One who makes the appropriate offering to Twashtar, to Chitra,
Twashtar is a form of the Creator, usually called Praja-pati. Chitra therefore has great creative powers, giving splendor, multiplicity and abundance." [end quote} |

QUOTATION from Dennis Harness, The Nakshatras: The Lunar Mansions of Vedic Astrology "14. Chitra: The Star of Opportunity (Virgo 23 20'to Libra 06 40') The symbol for the brilliant Chitra nakshatra is a bright jewel or pearl. Chitra translates as the " beautiful one" or " pretty pictures", which reflects its ability to arrange things nicely and in an artistic fashion. The deity is Tvashtar, the divine celestial architect . The creator of Astro* carto*Graphy, Jim Lewis, had his natal Moon placed here. Chitra natives are often successful artisan types. The shakti is the ability to accumulate merit in this life". Chitra has a rakshasa temperament with a primary motivation of kama, or desire. The animal associated with this nakshatra is a female tiger which reveals the passionate, sensual nature experienced here. Mars is the ruling planet of this asterism. Chitra Career Interests:
Chitra is represented by the beautiful, high magnitude, fixed star, Spica, at the beginning of sidereal Libra." [end quote] |

BPL COMMENTARY Chitra * Chaitra * Chithirai * Citra * Caitra * Chitta Vismakarma * Tvastri * Azinech * Alaraph * Arista * Dana * Spica Mangala-ruled Chaitra is considered to be an auspicious lagna for the male, but less auspicious for the female. (Note Shil Ponde's fierce distinctions below.)
Student Learning Style Mangala is Movement. Although further study of the lagnesha, of Budha, and of Chandra are certainly needed before making a final determination, Kuja-ruled Chitra-born is more likely to be a spacial learner or a kinetic learner. [Kanya] Pada-1 Simha-navamsha [ruled by Surya] produces a Kuja-Surya personality that is brightly outgoing in nature, confidently athletic, and charmingly center-stage. Tends to be display-oriented, leading to skills in realms of theatre, political pomp, and the arts of celebration and costume. Look to Surya to know more about oersonal expression of creative genius.
Examples
[double Kanya] Pada-2 Kanya-navamsha [ruled by Budha] [vargottamsha] navamsha complex due to interaction between two adversaries, Budha vs. Mangala. The personality may express inner tension. Look to Budha to know more about the mentality, which may grant special ability to detect process mistakes.
Examples
[Tula - Vanika] Pada-3 Tula-navamsha [ruled by Shukra] [ruled by Shukra] this [vargottamsha] navamsha expresses the natural compatibility of Mangala-action with Shukra-balancing. Look to Shukra to know more about the actively artistic and financial brokerage abilities. Often likes to combine sensual handling with sharp metals, such as needle-sewing of fine fabrics.
Examples [Tula - Vanika] Pada-4 Vṛścika-navamsha [ruled by Mangala] expresses the natural interactive compatibility of Mangala-action with Shukra-balancing. Look to lagnesha Shukra along with Chitra-ruler Mangala to know more about the social-and-physical engineering gifts, which may show special ability for weapons design, or for diplomatic handling of dangerous situations.
Examples
Hands Chitra is associated with beautifully crafted presentations of balance and harmony. Chitra natives may express socially as elegant figures in the world of beauty and design. They may emerge as fashion models or product designers. They may be mechanical drafters, design engineers, architects, jewelers, tool-makers, and garment sewing experts-- to name only a few options for these Designing Craftspeople. Chitra may make manual drawings of their schemes. A chitra musician often writes a few musical notations indicating a harmonic arrangement. Chitra typically like to do several drafts of a plan, although in a pinch Chaitra strategist can sketch a thoughtful battle plan with a stick in the dirt. For the Chitra pada 1-2 located within Kanya, engaging the hands is key to success. Here are found the instrumental musicians, the delicate machine operators, the design-and-sew experts in the garment industry, the technical fine-arts painters rendering a brilliant vision onto stretched canvas. To judge overall outcomes for this powerful nakshatra, assess the interaction within the nativity of the two adversaries, Budha (ruling Kanya) and Mangala (ruling Chaitra). For the Chitra pada 3-4 located within Tula, consciously engaging the body's internal balancing systems (particularly the adrenal gland mechanism) is the key to sustained release of energy which can produce superb results in all fields of arrangement and design. To judge overall outcomes for this powerful nakshatra, assess the interaction within the nativity of the two neutrals, Shukra (ruling Thula) and Mangala (ruling Chaitra). The hand-to-body connection is strong. Chitra folk are often skilled in martial arts involving sharp and decisive hand movement. Famous military strategists Direct [Kuja] but articulate [Budha] - depending on the constitution of Kuja and Budha in the kundali.
