Whether in a masculine valence or a feminine valence, whether in politics, drama, commerce, or finance, Jyeṣtha folk are either managing or being managed. Budha the Manager dominates their life experience.

In the American idiom, Jyeṣtha is going to tell you how it is.

Whether masculine-role or feminine-role, Jyeṣtha are pre-emptive, pro-active talkers. Ketta natives are often bossy announcers (Mangala-Budha) who adopt a posture of dominating wordiness whether their information is correct or... not.

For cultural reasons, feminine-role Jyestha are often criticized as shriek-y or shrill, due to the higher pitch of the female voice. But all Jyeṣtha-born folk regardless of gender are distinctively opinionated and outspoken.

Jyeṣtha-born usually mount an argument based on their own competitive, instinctive, pioneering perspective. Being Mangala-ruled, Kita folk are concerned with winning the contest -- not with integrating or balancing the views of others. Jyeṣtha are motivated by the Aryan warrior's first-arriver conquest mentality. Thus the channel of communication is less of an interactive conversation and more of a personal broadcast.

Their cherished and actively promoted opinion may change at a moment's notice (mercurial Budha) and Jyeṣtha may feel no compunction to explain the change. Their job is not transition -- it is assertion. The new truth is simply the new truth, and Jyeṣtha are the self-identified oracle of the truth. At least, the truth of today.

In family birth order, Jyeṣtha-born are typically more comfortable in the role of eldest sibling or only-child. If born into a lower sibling rank, Jyeṣtha struggles to assert primacy using verbal domination tools such as shouting or declaiming.

COMPATIBILITY

• Applies to nakshatra of radical lagna AND nakshatra of Chandra. For emotional relationships, nakshatra of Chandra is more influential on compatibility and ease of interaction.

Psycho-socially compatible with Jyeṣtha * Antares =

Nakshatra of Budha * mercantile, conversational, collaborative

• Aśleṣa-Naga +Jyeṣtha-Antares + Revatika-Pushana

Nakshatra of Surya * center-stage, sparklingly exceptional, brightly self-reflexive Surya-style is pleasantly compatible with Budha's chatty messaging style

• Krittika-Pleiades + Uttaraphalguni-Aryaman + Uttarazadha-Vaizva

Nakshatra of Shukra = materialistic, accumulating, sensual

• Bharani-Yamya + Purvaphalguni-Yoni + Purvazadha-Apah

Psycho-socially neutral with Jyeṣtha * Antares =

Nakshatra of Shani * materialistic, structuring, status-oriented Shani has no natural conflict with Budha's need to explain, instruct, describe, and diagram. Mercantile, conversational, collaborative, shopkeeper Budha is friendly with economic-systems regulator Shani. Budha may indicate the junior partner, the salesperson, the explainer while the Shani partner is more concerned with longevity and continuity of the operation.

• Pushya-Sidhya +Anuradha-Maitreya + Uttarabhadra-Andromeda

Psycho-socially uneasy with Jyeṣtha * Antares =

Nakshatra of Mangala * Budha considers Kuja to be neutral; However, Moving Mangala sees Blustering Budha as an enemy. Kuja likes to get things done whereas Budha is not a doer but rather a talker. This pair has too much friction to be truly compatible.

• Mrigashira-Invaka + Chitra-Spica + dhaniṣṭha-Delphinus

Nakshatra of Brihaspati * Guru and Budha are mutually neutral. Brihaspati welcomes every experience into the full totality of awareness, and Budha provides the messaging mechanism to preach the good news. Budha looks at Guru and sees a neutral. All would seem to be well with this pairing. However, when Guru looks at Budha, Professor Brihaspati sees Budha as an arch-enemy. Guru likes to preach on the widest humanistic principles whereas Budha chats about the technical details. This pair has too much friction to be truly compatible.

• Punarvasu-Yamaka + Vishakha-Radha + Purvabhadra-Pegasus

Nakshatra of Rahu or Ketu * whether highly exciting [Rahu] or deeply observing (Ketu) the fascinating yet disruptive nodal styles are acceptable to neutral news-announcer Budha who is always open to an interesting story.

• Arudra-Betelgeuze + Svatika-Arcturus + Sadachbia-Varuna

• Asvini-Dasra +Magha-Regulus + Mula-Nirriti

Most catalytic (challenging) nakshatra for Jyeṣtha * Antares =

Nakshatra of Chandra * caretaking Chandra's rhythmic, parenting, routinized style recognizes only ancestral, intuitive, emotional sources of knowledge, and this conflicts with Budha's focus on logical argument with unbiased information delivery. Broadcasting Budha considers Professor Chandra to be His arch-enemy

• Rohini-Aldebaran

• Hasta-Savitri

• Shravana-Hari

Jyeṣtha Nakshatra belongs to the Nakshatra Trikona of Messenger Budha the Announcer:

• Aśleṣa-Naga
• Jyeṣtha-Antares
• Revatika - Pushan

Those born into these three nakshatra are particularly gifted in all varieties of communicative endeavor, to name only a few:

• conversational, narrative, signaling, reporter, announcer
• itinerary, planning, scheduling
• coupler-joiner, sexual, manipulative, interactive, collaborative
• cohort, teamwork, ensemble, management, commerce, business
• logical, explanatory, instructional, explanatory, interpretive,
• diagramming, drafting-drawing, handcraft, technology-tools

• inter alia

However, in each case Professor Budha holds an unfriendly relationship to the razi-pati, and this often results in the communicated messages being somewhat adversarial or abrasive in nature:

• Aśleṣa-Naga * Karkata ruler Chandra. Although Chandra the Glow has no enemies, and Somana is patiently parental toward young whippersnapper Budha, the quietly rhythmic, intuitive, routine-loving Chandra is disliked by chatty conversational Budha. Aśleṣa are often willing to represent, describe, discuss, or write about squeamish sexual-emotional (Budha-Chandra) topics, particularly matters of sexualized parenting, or binding, leashing, or tied restraint. Aśleṣa - Naga the Coiling Ones are famed for their remarkable capacity to mentally manipulate [Budha] the feelings [Chandra].

• Jyeṣtha-Antares * Vrshchika ruler Kuja. Although Professor Budha feels neutral toward do-it-now Kuja, Professor Mangala is supremely frustrated by Budha's habit of talking rather than doing. Mangala explicitly dislikes Budha. Unless Budha is very well placed, Jyeṣtha natives are not known for their interest in entertaining alternative points of view nor do they normally feature a tolerance for ambiguity. However Jyeṣtha excel in matters which combine words with vigorous movement, such as action-cinema, politically motivational writing, inspirational talk that provokes an active response (such as change-oriented psychological counseling), and preaching mixed with physically energized liturgies (for example, declaiming rituals, glossolalia ritual. lit-urgy = "words with actions".)

• Revatika-Pushana * Meena ruler Guru. Brihaspati, the Professor of Theory, Principle, and the Big Picture, explicitly dislikes detail-oriented, technology-fixated, scripted and chattering "street-talker" Professor Budha. Revati may struggle to precisely express their ideas in normal conversational mode, where they may wander off-message. However, Revati can flourish in way-showing communications by using big-picture sensing modalities, such as imagistic, dreamlike fine-arts painting and sculpture, or any variety of music (often splendid singers).

Shakti of the Jyeṣtha Nakshatra

commentary by Pdt. David Frawley:

• Fruits of Worshipping Each Nakshatra

"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 Jyeṣtha 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".

Shakti of the Jyeṣtha Nakshatra

QUOTATION from Dennis Harness, The Nakshatras: The Lunar Mansions of Vedic Astrology

(emphasis by BP Lama)

The symbols for Jyestha are an earring and an umbrella. The earring is a symbol of Vishnu s discus, and the umbrella symbolizes protection and status.

Jyestha also translates as the eldest or senior-most . It is related to the eldest sister Alakshmi, who is in the opposition constellation to Rohini, her beautiful sister located in Taurus.

• Issues with jealously and betrayal can be experienced here.

Jyestha has a rakshasa nature with artha as the primary motivation.

The chief deity is Indra, the King of the Gods. He is the spiritual warrior and dragon slayer .

• The shakti of this nakshatra is the power to rise, conquer, and gain courage in battle .

The ruling planet, Mercury, reflects the troubled, yet creative genius of this lunar mansion.

• Theory of Relativity 1879-1955 Physics Albert Einstein,

• Twilight of the Idols 1844-1900 Ubermensch Friedrich Nietzsche,

• Howard Hughes, and
• Vincent Van Gogh

all had their natal Moons in this nakshatra.

It is the nakshatra of the creative eccentric ."

Feminine Nativities

Jyeṣtha * Kita * Thrikketta

BPL commentary

For Jyeṣtha births of a feminine valence, the condition of conversational, discursive, explanatory, instructional, argumentative, commercializing, evangelical Kumara may considerably affect the outcome.

For those born into the Budha-ruled paradigm of Varta, siblings, cousins, schoolmates, bandmates, team-mates, entourage, ensemble, neighbors, managers, cohort, coterie, collaborative group, publishers, messengers, merchants, commercial agents, reporters, writers, scripts, plans, schedules, instructions, radio-television-internet, news-media, conferences, committees, discussions, travel itineraries, and texts may be especially influential.

Instructional guidance is provided by emissaries from the civilizations of Antares. Their purpose is to communicate a forceful, dynamic, healing regeneration via sexual energy transfer and discovery of secrets.

Penetrating Communications

Budha-ruled Jyeṣtha gentlewomen are typically outspoken, incisive and decisive, competitive, descriptive, and authoritative communicators. Thrikketta-born maintain a deep sense of mental seniority often leading to impatience with those less quick-witted .

Articulate and pro-active in their messaging style, Jyeṣtha are often accomplished writers in literary genre ranging from autobiography to committee reports, Kita-born ladies find a ready audience on topics of a hidden, undisclosed, or forbidden nature. Jyeṣtha women are also natural trauma healers, investigative journalists, forensic scientists, and detectives.

Ketta-born ladies wield a penetrating ability to explain complex human sexual and psychological narratives. They are often found in powerful messaging roles, where secret information is revealed by a skillful shifting of the interpretive lens.

Due to nakshatra-pati Bantering Budha, the skills of Zakradaivata include all of the commercial fields plus psychotherapy and recovery work, self-help writing, and training of healers. Thriketta-born may also be found in the verbal realms of transformative criticism and promotion of mystical renewal.

Themes of verbal contest, sexual energy transfer, and healing discovery may contextualize Jyeṣtha's terrestrial experience. Also applicable to Chandra in Jyeṣtha-Antares

QUOTATION: Shil-Ponde. Hindu Astrology Joytisha-Shastra .p 98

"...independent self-sufficient , capable, dignified, proud.

• If she is not born in a wealthy or well-to-do family, she will herself become wealthy through her own efforts.

In such case, her family will be dependent on her and she will be recognized as the head of the family .

• She is careful and canny regarding money matters .

Being proud, she has a tendency to dramatize herself

• and secretly glories in being the pivot or centre around which her family affairs revolve.

She will, at some time in her life,

• occupy a very influential position

• and be greatly respected."

Penetrating Communications

Budha-ruled Jyeṣtha gentlemen are typically outspoken, incisive and decisive, competitive, descriptive, and authoritative communicators. Thrikketta-born maintain a deep sense of mental seniority. Capable writers, Ketta men are quick-witted and skilled in handcraft. Articulate and pro-active to the point of verbal aggression, they find a ready audience on topics of a mysterious, hidden, or forbidden nature.

Thriketta fellows may be handlers of secrets of a sexual, psychological, political, military, engineering, or financial nature.

Masters of verbal control and manipulation, Zakra chaps are often found in politics. Due to the influence of nakshatra-pati Budha, often Jyeṣtha-born use words to manage an ever-transforming experience of power.

In the process of channeling these mysterious and compelling kinetic energies, Thriketta men may engage in sexual intrigue and dangerous liaisons. Ketta-born are natural psychologists., and they can become transformative healers when their sexual energy consciousness evolves.

Themes of verbal contest, sexual energy transfer, and healing discovery may contextualize Jyeṣtha's terrestrial experience. Also applicable to Chandra in Jyeṣtha-Antares

Dhanus-Haya rules the 10th navamsha suggesting Guru-profiled careers in inspirational wisdom-teaching, preaching, sacred scripture, religious hierarchies, philosophy, principled interpretations, worldview, dharma, convictions, catechesis, guru-roles, patriarchy, father-figures, patronage, presbytery, punditry, proselytizing, doctrine, indoctrination, credenda, dogma, discussions of higher thinking, theory, theology, ideology, paradigms of belief

Partnership

Kanya-Parthya = the 7th navamsha, broadly suggesting Budha-profiled spousal characteristics of logical nature, argumentative tendencies, management of detailed information, medical and pharmacological orientation, analytical attitude, critical thinking skills, preference for evidence-based discussion, and strategic perspective. D-1 Kumara can indicate the lifemate's social context and position. Graha residing within the 7th navamsha ++ graha-yuti-Budha in D-1 can contribute more specific behaviors.

Masculine Nativity

• Flowers of Evil 1821-1867 Charles Baudelaire

• Totem and Taboo 1856-1939 psychoanalysis Sigmund Freud

• POTUS-27 Dollar Diplomacy 1857-1930 William Howard Taft (wagon accident fracture skull)

• France-Pres 1890-1970 Mémoires de Guerre Charles de Gaulle

Feminine Nativities * eldest of the Moon god's Queens = Jyeṣtha = a generally positive intellectual and social placement for Feminine Nativities. The Jyeṣtha descriptors for male births rarely apply to female births.

• POTUS-27-pair Cherry Trees 1861-1943 Nellie Herron Taft

from BPHS, Ch. 94 * "Remedies from the Effects of Birth in Jyeṣtha Gandanta"

(Ranjan edition, 1995, p. 1035 Vol 2.)

"A girl born in Jyeṣtha Nakshatra

• destroys (is the cause of death of) the elder brother of her husband

And a girl born in Vishaka Nakshatra

• destroys (is the cause of death of) the younger brother of her husband.

Therefore, a cow should be given in charity

• at the time of the marriage of such girls to wipe out the aforesaid evil effects."

Jyeṣtha = the single most challenging location for Chandra.

Jyeṣtha radical lagna is associated with very pro-active - even aggressive - verbal assertions, potentially including fraudulent statements intended to establish the native 's dominance in business groups and family discussions.

Jyestha's verbally competitive and dominantly controlling verbal behavior helps develop their leadership credibility, and Jyeṣtha is Therefore, a mark of cult leadership. When the accuracy or viability of their assertions are challenges, the charismatic Jyeṣtha leader does not back down, compromise or adjust.

Forward-moving Jyeṣtha cannot retract a statement [Budha] or permit reformulation of the agenda. One may get carried away with the logical forward-power of the argument and fail to scientifically verify the actual truth of the claims. Thus Jyeṣtha is associated with cult leadership and self-appointed authority to declare an action agenda based on false claims.

Jyestha's mental-domination style does not block inquiry into the factual accuracy of their assertions, but rather Jyeṣtha more and more vigorously [Mangala] asserts the need to move forward with the agenda.

these seniority-asserting leaders often attract weaker followers, sycophants, and hangers-on.

Jyestha's charisma is powerful but the organizations which sometimes organically grow around these sparkling personalities * especially the Feminine Nativities * must beware of the "manager" types who can attempt to "package" the Jyeṣtha personality. A Jyeṣtha woman in particular benefits from direct hands-on [Budha] control of her own business affairs, leaving very little to the control of middlemen and managers.

In particular the Jyeṣtha must take charge ofmedia publicity = what is being said "about" one, and maintain honest truth about oneself, to prevent spinning of tales.

• "O" 1954- multimedia Oprah Winfrey * blessed by a strong constellation of graha in bhava-3-business management including an uttama-Mangala-Chandra yoga, which allowed her to mentally understand and keep direct control over her 'public relations' image as well as hands-on manage her own staff. If bhava-3 is weak for the Jyeṣtha woman she can be led astray by promoters, packagers, and those trying to manipulate her image.

Jyeṣtha may meet challenges to its mental behavior with aggressive self-assertion.

It may be a challenge to say No to a forcefully charismatic Jyestha-born!

• once they have begun an evangelistic or political-slogan campaign., it is nearly impossible to convince them to double-check their logic or revise their claims.

Jyeṣtha one-way communication style :

• does not accept advice from humans.

• Gives sermons, delivers advice, repeats slogans , makes pronouncements

Jyeṣtha the Messenger delivers instructions but does not accept advice .

• Jyeṣtha tends to dominate the discussion

One often delivers Transformative in structions [Budha] styled with authoritative, emotionally healing energy

In a war of words or battle of the minds (Mangala-Budha) , Jyeṣtha intends to win.

However, similar to Budha-ruled Aśleṣa-Naga and Revatika-Pushana, as a result of bantering Budha's "dual-channel" capability, the life Jyeṣtha is living may be significantly at variance with the message they are delivering.

• While the person lifestyle and behavior of the messenger does not necessarily invalidate the transformative power of the message (and Jyestha's message is often profoundly transformative) the usual Jyeṣtha lifestyle specifically does not 'walk the talk'.

• Severe inconsistencies can even lead to the possibility of outright fraud.

Jyeṣtha are charismatically sexual creatures who typically control their liaisons quite effectively, through a combination of authoritative argument and intentional touch.

seniority, prophecy, authoritativeness

Anuradha's alliance-building negotiations have become prolonged. In the chaotic aftermath of Vishaja followed by still-incomplete negotiations for order within Anuradha, the people need a senior leader to bring the conflicted factions together.

According to the sequence, one individual with a strong vision will arise in the disorder following the shock caused by a great storm * Vishaka.

Jyeṣtha knows, or believes that one knows, the true path toward greater world order a lasting peace.

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 .

Arriving in times that hunger for a transformative message, authoritative Jyeṣtha may find social destiny as a charismatic politician

or an influential religious leader

• "weeping evangelist" Tammy Faye Bakker

Chandra in Jyeṣtha-Antares * calmed by competitive signals * protector of prophetic messages * familiar face of direct announcements

of all 27 Nakshatra, Jyeṣtha is the most likely or the most tempted to misuse one's power to control others .

However, with adequate self-knowledge and spiritual grounding, Jyeṣtha (especially for Feminine Nativities, or for males with good wives) can become a greatly respected force for good.

Best results occur for the Jyeṣtha nativity when Budha is strong.

For Jyeṣtha Feminine Nativities, expect some difficulty in the early years typically, with poor family support until Budha matures after age 32.

Jyeṣtha may be associated with cult leadership .

The method of dealing with criticism is to deny it and repeat the 'revealed' claims.

• Noam Chomsky (an intellectual cult in linguistics, based on a disproven theory)

However, Jyestha's proclaimed certainty may be deceptive to less discriminating minds. Jyeṣtha must maintain the highest standards of personal integrity in order to withstand the temptation to misuse one's inherent seductive charisma.

• Jyeṣtha native enjoys certain darkly charismatic mentally manipulative powers , similar to Aśleṣa-Naga.

• One may make a show of consulting authorities but indeed the Jyeṣtha native is convinced in advance of one's own righteousness.

The status of Budha-Kuja within the Jyotisha nativity will determine the course of one's true righteousness in the dharmic context. Jyeṣtha can produce both a great saint and a manipulative fraud.

The Jyeṣtha native faces lifelong potential for self-deception.

Jyeṣtha 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, Jyeṣtha 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 may be permanently in order for the Jyeṣtha native!

Personally and socially, Jyeṣtha nativities typically flourish when left to their own devices. Characteristically, Jyeṣtha are self-certain and as a result do not usually feel comfortable in conformist organizations, nor in roles where their inherent certainty may be invalidated or questioned. Intellectual independence is a keynote and their freedom to express the truth as they see it is essential to well-being.

Jyeṣtha can be a "control freak" in the world of physical experience, especially in matters of planning [Budha] and communications [Budha]. If Chandra- Jyestha, obsessive emotional control.

If there is a Jyeṣtha person in your life, things will be easier in the relationship when the Jyeṣtha person is allowed to have firm control over his or her physical, emotional, mental, social, spiritual destiny.

Competitive outsider authority or advice may be ignored. Truly persistent competing outside opinion or authority will be destroyed.

One may however extend positive influence to the Jyeṣtha native through subtle psychic suggestion (in case the Jyeṣtha is still a child) through parental role-modeling. Jyeṣtha has a fixed-direction mentality physical habit, but also a very fluid psychic aura.

Jyeṣtha must rigorously discipline a tendency to appropriate power through psycho-mental manipulation. Jyeṣtha should avoid the temptation to believe that one knows better what benefits the partner or the people.

Jyeṣtha = 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 Jyeṣtha may indeed act as a great transformative channel for the progress of human civilization

"In all your designs you will succeed, and light will shine on your path."
