Nakshatra – Ardra
About Nakshatra:
The Nakshatras in Vedic astrology are lunar constellations and directly manifest its expressions. The Moon changes signs (12 houses) about every 2.3 days. It takes 28 days to move through the 12 signs of the zodiac, translating into two weeks of a waxing (bright half) Moon and two weeks of a waning (dark half) Moon. The Moon is related to our intuition, intelligence and our natural emotions. The 28 Nakshatras deal with these ever-changing feelings and emotions based on the Moon’s position.

Ardra Nakshatra Astrology:
The Ardra Nakshatra ranges from 6.40 to 20.00 degrees in Mithuna or Gemini sign, which is ruled by Lord Rudra, and also the shadow planet Rahu. Lord Rudra is the supreme composition of everything that is both good and evil. He is the creator as well as the destroyer. Rudra is the supreme manifestation of power and dominance. He is supremely knowledgeable and supremely pure. However, the presence of Rahu brings many negatives and miseries of every kind, including poverty and depression. So, astrologically, this is a very mixed Nakshatra.
