Pandit David Frawley

"Prajapati created creatures but thus created they went away.

Of them, he thought about Rohini.

  • He desired, "May she approach me.

  • May we unite together."

One who makes the appropriate offering to Prajapati, to Rohini, his beloved approaches him and he unites with her.

Rohini is a Nakshatra of love, passion and sexuality that is generally fertile and creative, but not inclined to tolerate limits.

Because of this it is very productive for almost everything but can draw jealousy upon it ."

Valerie Roebuck,

"The wish-fulfilling cow: "... the cow who, when milked, grants all wishes ... all fertile and creative qualities"

Rohini ruled by Brahma (breath):

"When we focus our attention on the passage of breath,

we break the usually continuous flow of thoughts of attachment, hostility and so forth, whatever they might be.

  • This causes such thoughts to subside for the moment.

Thus, by occupying the mind with our breath,

we cleanse it of all positive and negative conceptual thoughts

  • and thus remain in a neutral state of mind unspecified as either constructive or destructive.

This is the meaning of the line in the root text, "Thoroughly clean out your state of awareness."

This unspecified or neutral state of mind, cleaned out of all positive and negative conceptual thoughts,

  • is the most conducive one to work with.

Because an unspecified state of mind like this is unburdened and supple,

  • it is relatively easy to generate it into a constructive state."

    General Description of Rohini characteristics -- from Das/ Behari

    You feel impressed with your own work.

    Acceptance of the truth and discard of the false is your plus point.

    • Your life is full of ups and downs as you do not try to pre-plan your objectives.

    • You can attain great success in life provided a little restraint is kept in the freedom of your mind.

    • There is no tomorrow for you. You spend everything for the sake of today's comfort.

    You can shine not only in any independent profession or business

    • but also in the social work.

    As far as possible you try to be more sincere and honest in all the work you undertake.

    • But you lack patience and forgiveness.

    You try to be a jack of all trades and in the process you fail to pass through the path of requisite rhythm and system.

    Your freedom of mind will quite often lead to your downfall.

    It is also seen that some Rohini born persons have risen from the lowest rung of life to the highest rung of life due to the finest placement of other planets.

    • You will have to face a lot of problems economically, socially and on health ground.

    • It is often noticed that such people enjoy their life's best between the age of 38 and 50, and 65 and 75.

    One of the primary factors to keep in mind is that you should never take anyone into confidence.

    • You have to be extra careful with business partners and employees.

    There is an inherent drawback in you that you blindly believe others.

    • For a happy existence, it is suggested that you should screen people thoroughly before confidence is bestowed on them.

    While you cannot enjoy full benefit from your father,

    • you will be more attached to your mother and maternal uncle or maternal things.

  • You will not hesitate to throw away any social or religious laws when warranted.

  • Hence your married life will be marred with disturbances.
