PUSHYA NAKSHATRA (LORD – SATURN) – 030 20′ – 160 40′ CANCER
पुष्य नक्षत्र वेद मंत्र :
ॐ बृहस्पते अतियदर्यौ अर्हाद दुमद्विभाति क्रतमज्जनेषु ।
यददीदयच्छवस ॠतप्रजात तदस्मासु द्रविण धेहि चित्रम ।
ॐ बृहस्पतये नम: ।
Brihaspati literally means “the lord of expansion” or “the lord of vastness”. He helps us to keep our mind open and vast for new ideas to emerge and blossom, and for Divine light to reflect through us. In this vastness the deepest compassion can be found, the most profound wisdom and plenty of space to express yourself and your creativity.Pushya nakshatra helps us to nourish all that is good, within us and to grow above our limitations, like lotus flower, which grows in the mud, pierces through the surface to become the most beautiful of all flowers. It inspires us to seek beauty and opportunity to grow in every life experience. It also teaches us not to be afraid to open our hearts – because our soul, more vast than the sky, is so much bigger than any of our little problems. Such are the spiritual lessons from Pushya nakshatra.
Bij mantra of Pushya nakshatra is kam. Ka refers to expansive, creative qualities of Brahma, the creator, as well as to immesureable, infinite light of the Divine, while ma refers to measurement or human limitation put on this Divine light. No wonder, it is the first bija and first nakshatra connected to heart chakra, where we learn, similarly like Guru Brihaspati, how to rise above our human limitations and reflect more of Divine light of unconditional love.Pushya nakshatra is light and swift in nature, but also warm and nourishing. It always seeks expansion, space and opportunities to blossom and reflect Divine light. Nourishing Moon feels very comfortable in this lunar mansion, yet he tends to become a little bit too passive here, sometimes, and unwilling to move out of his comfort zone.
