Shakti of the Mūla nakshatra

QUOTATION commentary by Pdt. David Frawley

https://www.vedanet.coam

Fruits of Worshipping Each Nakshatra


" Prajapati desired, "May I find the root of progeny ."

One who makes the appropriate offering to Prajapati, to Moola, gains the root of progeny.

Here Moola is ruled by Prajapati, the Creator, who also rules Rohini.

  • This gives Mula a more creative energy.

Moola means root.

It gives the root of progeny or strong creative powers, somewhat like Rohiṇī - Aldebaran .

In the negative sense in the Vedas, moola ruled by Nirriti takes away the root of one' s progeny or causes the loss of one' s first child."

QUOTATION ~~ Fixed Stars and Constellations in Astrology, Vivian E. Robson, 1923. " Mula" p.82


" Ruled by the Dragon's Tail. A sharp asterism belonging to the butcher caste and favorable for punishment, torture, imprisonment, exorcism, mesmerism and separation or union when containing the Moon.

Those born on the lunar day will be druggists, dealers in flowers and fruit, rich and fond of gardening.

With Moon here at birth native will be conceited, wealthy, luxurious, kind-hearted, happy and resolute. Rules stables and the left side of the body. " [end quote]

" Each [galactic sun] desires to create a more eloquent expression of experience of the Creator by the Creator.

The archetypical mind is intended to heighten this ability to express the Creator in patterns more like the fanned peacock' s tail, each facet of the Creator vivid, upright, and shining with articulated beauty."

- [the collective consciousness known as] Ra, The Law of One: Book IV , 90.16

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


"19. Mula: The Foundation Star

(Sagittarius 00 00 to 13 20 )

Mula translates as the root or original star, which is symbolized as a tied bunch of roots.

  • It is located around the galactic center of our universe.

The ruling planetary deity is Ketu, the South Node of the Moon, which reflects the mystical nature of this asterism.

The primary deity is Nirritti, the Goddess of Destruction. She lives in the Kingdom of the Dead and is associated with the powerful goddess, Kali.

  • The shakti revealed here is the power to ruin, destroy, and to break things apart .

The 9/11 tragedy occurred when Mars and Ketu were conjoined near the point of the galactic center in the middle of this intense nakshatra.

Mula has a rakshasa temperament with a primary motivation of kama."

COMPATIBILITY

  • Applies to nakshatra of indriya-lagna AND nakshatra of Chandra. For emotional relationships, nakshatra of Chandra is more influential in determining compatibility and ease of interaction.

Psycho-socially compatible with Mula - Nirriti

Nakshatra of Rāhu or Ketu

whether highly exciting [Rahu] or deeply observing [Ketu] the fascinating yet disruptive nodal styles are well suited to partner with each other.

Rahu-Rahu, rahu-Ketu, and Ketu-Ketu pairings are found in environments that require irregularity, social non-conformism, opportunism, adventurous excitement, challenge to existing standards, cultural mixing, wandering patterns, and spiritual detachment..


Psycho-socially neutral with Mula - Nirriti

Nakshatra of Mangala

Kuja and No-contact Ketu are assigned to share governance of secret-revealing, therapeutically invasive Vṛścika rashi. Mangala prefers to move vigorously and directly toward the goal, while Ketu's pathway tends to be nebulizing and foggy.

Nevertheless, certain combinations of Ketu with Mangala can be temporarily yet profoundly healing within a narrative of active distancing, vigorous detachment, and energetically disconnected witness perspective.

Nakshatra of Brihaspati

Brihaspati's ever-expanding realm of inclusive doctrinal understanding can be supplemented by dissolving Ketu, and Guru-Ketu combinations can reflect a theoretically abstractive pair.

However, the principled methods of Guru's outreach preaching are typically incommensurable with the apparently aimless disorientation of Ketu. These pairings may have a temporary shared spiritual agenda, but they are Typically, not sustainable.


Psycho-socially uneasy with Mula - Nirriti

Nakshatra of Shukra

Shukra is all about equal matches, pleasures, and partnership. No-contact Ketu the chidrakaraka is all about disconnection, amputation, splitting. This couple is not adversarial. Rather, it finds no mutual point of contact.

The Shukra partner seeks harmonious, wealth-accruing unions whereas the Ketu partner seeks pilgrimage, wandering, witnessing dispersion. Low potential for agreement.

Nakshatra of Shani

Shani imposes the rules and Ketu dissolves the rules Generally Ketu folk feel restricted in Shani's fixed-role, orderly environments. Ketu tends to find Shani as rather meaninglessly punitive, purposelessly strict, or uselessly authoritarian. Ketu wanders on.


Most catalytic (challenging) nakshatra for Mula - Nirriti

Nakshatra of Chandra

Ketu and Chandra form an inherently uncomfortable union. Chandra stabilizes, settles, cultivates, harvests, and nurtures. Ketu blows through Chandra's settlements like a dust storm, desiccating the nurturing waters and pulverizing ancestral roots.

Chandra the Sustainer can withstand most of Ketu's disconnecting effects but even so, chandra is wary of amputation, decapitation, and root-destruction. This pairing is rare, and when it occurs the Chandra partner may perceive No-Contact Ketu as a nuisance.

Nakshatra of Surya

Ketu and Surya often cannot recognize each other. Surya's brilliant light overpowers Ketu. This pairing is exceptionally rare, and when it occurs the Surya partner may perceive Ketu as insubstantial, unintelligent, or disoriented.

Nakshatra of Budha

Ketu and Budha work at cross-purposes. Budha repeats a script of message delivery that depends on a logical mental process. Ketu is speechless, off-script, non-sequitur, clueless, and ungrammatical. If this pairing is required for some pre-incarnationally planned reason, logically argumentative Budha may express resentment toward Ketu's proclivity toward wandering non-thought.

Rising Nakshatra

Feminine Nativity

Mūla - Vichruta

Nirriti - Alaxmi


BPL COMMENTARY

For Mula births of a feminine valence, the condition of limitless, observing, uncoupling, surrendering, abandoning, disinterested, ethereal, wandering, spacious, dispersing Ketu may considerably affect the outcome.

For those born into the Ketu-ruled paradigm of Alaxmi, spirit guides, astral beings, ghosts, pilgrims, wanderers, cutters, dispersers, splitters, de-couplers, winds, flags, tails, cloudy figures, agents of impermanence and release, events of forgiveness and surrender, freedom from conventions, disregard of consequences, and inner listening may be especially influential.

Instructional guidance is provided by emissaries from the civilizations of Al-Shaula. Their purpose is to disintegrate, disconnect, disperse, and deconstruct those phenomena which have become obstacles to greater understanding.


Fearless Deconstructivism

Mula gentlewomen are ready to sacrifice everything in an ongoing act of complete and devastating spiritual surrender. Those born under auspice of nakshatra-pati Nirriti may feel intense yearning for emptiness, evacuation, annihilation, and deconstruction of the superficial personality which opens the gateway into utter rebirth..

Akasha-born feminine beings may find empowerment in acts of purgative spiritual healing. Often their gifts express in physical healing when the mechanism is purging, profound cleansing, expulsion, or eradication. Purification at the root is their specialty.

Themes of annihilation, apocalypse, extreme chaos followed by absolute peace, and fearless disregard of consequences may contextualize Mūla's terrestrial experience. Applies also to Chandra in Mūla

QUOTATION Mūla

from Shil-Ponde. (1939). Hindu Astrology Joytisha-Shastra . p 98


" ... very little happiness through the life ...

  • due to the secret and destructive thoughts of the native

  • and her proud and stubborn nature.

To understand this is a help.

  • But a determined effort must be made to rectify it.

The fault lies entirely within herself,

  • her nature preventing her from being happy in any relationship.

She will have many love affairs and trouble through them.


If she marries, she will be unhappy

  • because of her inability to compromise

  • and her husband will die in seven years from the time of the marriage.

She has a weak constitution and her health will be uncertain,

  • due again to the destructive thoughts

  • which she harbors continually."

Masculine Public-Figure Examples

Mūla - Vichruta

Nirriti - Alaxmi


BPL COMMENTARY

For Mula births of a masculine valence, the condition of limitless, observing, uncoupling, surrendering, abandoning, disinterested, ethereal, wandering, spacious, dispersing Ketu may considerably affect the outcome.

For those born into the Ketu-ruled paradigm of Alaxmi, spirit guides, astral beings, ghosts, pilgrims, wanderers, cutters, dispersers, splitters, de-couplers, winds, flags, tails, cloudy figures, agents of impermanence and release, events of forgiveness and surrender, freedom from conventions, disregard of consequences, and inner listening may be especially influential.

Instructional guidance is provided by emissaries from the civilizations of Al-Shaula.

Their purpose is to disintegrate, disconnect, disperse, and deconstruct those phenomena which have become obstacles to greater understanding.


Fearless Deconstructivism

Mula gentlemen are inspiring in their fearlessness . Alaxmi are concerned with absolute principles of conviction, not with material outcomes.

Although apparently optimistic and genial Guru-ruled personalities, nairriti are constitutionally aligned with destabilizing power vacuums, disintegration of outdated structures, and large-scale disorientation. Pilgrims of wandering spirit, mula have little regard for boundaries, customs, or consequences. They go easily where angels fear to tread.

Mula has a natural veneer of faith and generosity due to Brihaspati's Benevolence. Often appearing as father-figures, patriarchs, patrons, preachers, and philosophers, masculine Mula may present as pastoral shepherds who are paternally guiding their lost sheep.

In times of inattentive negligence or mass psychic distress, shri Ketu's polarity vacuum may suck an enormous degree of power - sometimes, absolute power.

Mūla's outlook often features a liberating mix of ambivalence and apathy. Free from self-doubt, and disinterested in moral conventions, those born in Alaxmi may consciously or unconsciously guide their flocks into states of higher wisdom.

Yet, the sacred must be sacrificed. In a world with few meaningful limits, depravity, destruction, cruelty, and chaos may better suit Ketu's purpose than compassion, understanding, or human love.

Because Alakshmi-born preach their principles while dismissing [Ketu] the material consequences of applying those beliefs, they are generally freed from worry. They are cheerful folk, even in the most dire circumstances. They do not fear death.

When involved in religious or political indoctrination, [Mūla] born may expound an eschatology of annihilation. Unlimited destruction may be the preferred path toward full purgative cycle of regeneration.

Niritti (no-rhythm) may be associated with heart-stopping shock and awe or scorched earth or eradication campaigns that are aimed to destroy the root.

Having usually no fear of death, mula may nonchalantly engage in self-destructive behavior as well as in evacuation, elimination, or eradication of others - often on a large scale [Guru]. Religious or ideological patronage may be essential to their mission.

Mula gentlemen are found in the worlds of sacred wisdom, inspirational guidance, cults of belief, and radical indoctrination. They may conduct zero-sum operations within military orders, priesthoods, politics, and organized crime.

Mūla-born health may be affected by restless windiness (vata dosha).

Themes of annihilation, apocalypse, extreme chaos followed by absolute peace, and fearless disregard of consequences may contextualize Mūla's terrestrial experience. Applies also to Chandra in Mūla

QUOTATION Mūla

from Shil-Ponde.(1939). Hindu Astrology Joytisha-Shastra . p 86.


" ... a shrewd and capable character - an organizer,

  • who is able to handle people

  • and make them serve his needs through tact and diplomacy.

A politician.

An orator who is capable of swaying his audiences

  • yet who is not sincere

  • but may even be unfaithful to his constituents

  • and ungrateful and unappreciative of favors received if the occasion arises.

The type of person who, while one is still in his presence, holds one spellbound;

  • but who when he leaves, also leaves a lurking distrust behind him.

Extremely clever and capable ."

BPL COMMENTARY


Pada-4 Larlata extreme localism, focus on ethnicity, local rights, ancient rutted pathways

Mūla ladies often prefer to remain unmarried, which among other advantages allows their power to remain undiluted

Ketu-ruled Mula has a reputation for failure leading to annihilation - Nirriti *

Patterns of misconstrued spiritual confidence = blind faith .

Lacks practical restraints and cannot retain accrued values = Alaxmi.

  • Yet, in the most daunting circumstances, Mula can inspire others with a curious delight in the hopelessness of the human condition.


Mula natives are found in all industries and roles. Mula are often particularly attracted into situations that contain large-scale dissolution of focus, hopeless causes, or structural collapse.

. Mula are often intensely committed to a doctrine, theory, first principles, or ideology . which contradicts material reality. . This belief woven into its supporting paradigm tends to guide Mūla's interpretation of reality.

. For example, amemorable Mula female = a deeply inspired elementary school teacher. She taught in a violent, drug-and-crime ridden USA race ghetto. Unlike many of her fellow liberal-progressive colleagues who experienced tremendous job stress and could not continue, this intrepid Mula educator never burned out.

. She was a believer. A woman born into social privilege, every school day she used her own salary to buy breakfast foods for each of her 19 students. She believed that they would succeed in life if she could install a strong foundation into their third-grade experience, which she described as the most important and high-potential year in the entire K-12 sequence. After 35 years of pursuing this faith-infused practice, she cannot point to a single one of her former students who has graduated from college.

. Notably descriptive of Ketu-context thinking, she was not interested in learning research-based behavioral techniques for managing these largely learning-disabled students. When she attended the mandatory annual professional continuing education classes necessary to maintain her teaching license, she reports that she (and many of her colleagues) skipped class. They simply signed-in to create a record of attendance that would satisfy government licensing requirements, excused themselves (Ketu = excuse) to the restroom, and went to a bar or restaurant to relax for the duration of the required professional skills trainings.

. According to her, research-based skills training was worthless because " they don't understand how to inspire my kids" . Most of her male students are dead or incarcerated. She personally adopted three crack-babies, raised them with every social privilege, paid for tutors, dentists, and doctors, and kept looking for that miracle result in which Mula deeply believes. All three babies became convicted felons before age 25; two are serving life sentences due their drug-fueled crimes involving murder. Despite the heinous nature of the crimes, she insists that her sons should not be held accountable because of their traumatic histories.

This Mula native is an award-winning master schoolteacher (Dhanus teaching) who has sponsored innumerable younger teachers. She emphasizes positive thinking. The only thing she hates is testing, because she believes that test numbers defeat the inspiration which is the real heart of learning (Budha numbers, Budha adversarial to Guru).

. End of career is a splendid Ketu story.

. After decades of teaching, the district supervisor (who was her friend) suddenly asked [Mūla] woman to accept early retirement. Apparently there was video showing mishandling of the students' annual state exams. According to Mula, the video showed her seated at the teacher's desk on " planning day" carefully and systematically erasing her students' wrong test answers and filling in the correct answers.

. It is a beautiful example of the way of Mula folk. First, mula are distinguished by " disregard for consequences" . They follow the truth of their theory-doctrine-ideology-credenda, unconvinced and unimpressed by material reality. Secondly, mula are rarely harmed by this attitude of disregard, and often do quite well in life. Actually this Mula profited by an early retirement with full pension and benefits. With her three kids safely in prison, she is free to enjoy many travel holidays.

. Despite working with a financially desperate, chemically deranged, and often violent population, [Mūla] woman was never physically harmed at any time. She has remained cheerfully faithful to her principles. She continues to preach her doctrine to anyone who will listen.

. Importantly, lagnesha Guru (belief) occupies Simha-9 supporting her buoyant optimism, while Budha (logic) is heavily oppressed by Shani suggesting her ability to ignore logical evidence while sustaining a long career in heavily institutional conditions.

. Surrender

. Exemplifying a distinction between Rahu (whose fall can be public and dramatic) versus Ketu (abandonment, severance or surrender) this Mūla's fall from grace was never disclosed to the public nor was she prosecuted due to protections in her employment contract.


EXAMPLE

Shambala1939-1987 Tulku Chogyam Trungpa

  • Born and educated into a historic wisdom lineage, trungpa became a brilliant celebrity teacher who used shock and awe to challenge the stagnant paradigm of conventional thinking about dharma (reality).

  • CT's pioneering mission to eradicate (Mula vichruta root) a millennium of barnacle-like cultural accruals stuck to the Vajrayana Buddhist wisdom-teachings, so that its wisdom could penetrate the western consciousness, would be adjudged successful.

  • But CT also acted distinctively without regard for consequences toward the limitations of the earthen embodiment, developed self-encouraged alcoholism, and died of the drink.

Mula can express great genius through its eccentric sense of possibility; they are very good at thinking out of the box and getting great insights from traveling around the world (Dhanus, the wealth-of-wisdom). Mula may travel widely during Ketu mahadasha.

Open-minded and unencumbered by practical concerns of consensual reality, mula unhesitatingly takes on big projects based on their oddly arranged paradigm of belief. On the one hand the Divine will guide (generous Guru) and on the other hand, nothing matters anyway (apathetic Ketu).


Mula the Galactic Root = direct route to center of this universe, but often swayed by Others

For one born into a Nakshatra of Ketuva

. Ketu tends to provide a blank screen upon which others may project their desires. It may be beneficial to meditate upon one's authentic preferences and secure one's choices by writing them or speaking them. Without a conscious awareness of the need to ascertain one's own true preferences, the natural apathy of Ketu may lead the native into inauthentic choices based on the will of more ambitious, more opportunistic Others [Rahu]


. less benevolent wealth-accruing human civilizations (Alaxmi) because Mula lacks both preparation and follow-through. Yet, complete openness to experience and lack of preconceptions opens the way to tremendous, cosmic-scale insights.

  • . Mūla's wisdom about human nature and its frailtiesmay be considerable at times, but insights are ephemeral [Ketu]. Other more materially grounded placements are necessary to preserve the insights in memory exempli gratia, . a strong Budha for writing.

  • . Unassisted, mula tends to make the same mistakesover and over again..

Through times of ease and times of challenge, mula remains quite neutral - taking neither credit nor blame. It is in many ways a very spiritual placement, albeit a frustrating one in the world of normal human endeavor.

  • In advance of starting the project, amarriage, anew employment, mula shows little inclination toward self-assessment, evaluation of existing skills or resources inventories, consideration of previous experience or track-record in similar pursuits.

  • Typically, mula considers previous experience or skills training to be irrelevant to present challenges.

Amid a project, mula can inspire others with the seeming profundity of their faith in Providence and acts of unfettered courage..

  • . Mula is well represented by the Tarot card"The Fool" which shows an open-minded fellow taking a big step right off the edge of a cliff.Mula is well represented by the Tarot card"The Fool" which shows an open-minded fellow taking a big step right off the edge of a cliff.

  • . There are indeed times in life when common sense [Shani] tells us to run but we must fight on anyway, and hope to live another day. In these desperate or irrational circumstances, mūla's foolish wisdomcan offer a beacon shining hopefully in the darkest, most fearful night..

. However, mūla's bad reputation comes from Ketu. In the middle of a commitment, abattle, ajob being done albeit with poor preparation and inadequate resources, mula can switch from an icon of splendid risk to a suddenly disengaged traitor, abdicant, or coward.However, mūla's bad reputation comes from Ketu. In the middle of a commitment, abattle, ajob being done albeit with poor preparation and inadequate resources, mula can switch from an icon of splendid risk to a suddenly disengaged traitor, abdicant, or coward.

Ketu = karaka for sudden disconnection. Mula has a tendency to walk out . in abandonment . Of a commitment or simply surrender without warning. Ketu is a wanderer, and Mula will wander off to another battle, another relationship, another job, another project.

If Mula contains Shani or Guru there may be more substance to one 's behavior, and commitments may last longer with more common sense or a more philosophical less annihilating type of religious faith.

Vichruta born displays a general tendency to bite off more than one can chew, overestimate one's human abilities, and in the face of overwhelming circumstances to simply withdraw [Ketu])

Opposite or reverse of movement; forbidding movement or forbidding repayment; finite, limited, sticks to its base; does not exceed a narrow, pre-set range.

Mula = charismatic yet, insincere. Externally capable; internally unhappy.

Binding or restraint, root-bound; chained, bound or arrested.

Esoterically, mula is considered the center of Earth's galaxy, the celestial "root" of the greater galactic civilization = of which Earthly civilization is only one component.

Traditionally it is forbidden to make loans during the Moon's transit through Mūla nakshatra . The repayment of such loans would be difficult-to-impossible, as they are cursed by Mūla's energy of bound-ness or movement without progress..

Detachment from Ketu + Expansion from Guru

  • Reckless yet religious

  • self-destructive yet self-regenerating


Mula = self-destructive, but not deadly . The Mula native seemingly destroys oneself" own to the root -- but no farther.

  • The root itself is not destroyed. Vitality sustains.

  • In fact, the root almost always regenerates.

  • The subject matter of Mūla's secretly self-destructive agenda will be found in the karaka portfolio of the affected graha, the bhava containing the Mula graha, and incoming drishti to the bhava.

  • As always, chandra is most intensely characterized by the qualities of His Nakshatra . Chandra in Mūla - Vichruta : yields more vividly self-destructive results than any other graha in Mula.

Accidents and life-threatening injuries

  • Mula is especially associated with dangerous burns . Also drowning, choking, violent accidents, broken bones, and dangerous sexual behaviors.

  • Mula behavior is characteristically negligent and oblivious to precaution. Yet, the Alaxmi native generally will not die from even the most catastrophic [Mūla] typical accident. Indeed, despite a lifetime which may look to outsiders like a chain of concatenated over-reachings and missteps, the optimistic Mula eventually recovers their vitality after each incident. Although not much the wiser for experience, they tend to be long-lived.

Sex and drug addictions

  • Mula = related to alcoholism and sex or drug addictions. Yet, the addictions will not kill the native .

  • Addictive cycles begin with sudden and destructive power. Just as suddenly, the addiction is finished. In recovery, one may fill a priestly role in service to the addicted.

" Reckless disregard for consequences ".

  • The [Mūla] Soma native may engage in unsupportable or"senseless " risk.

  • Mula can also be cruel , due to the reckless detachment under rules of no-boundaries Ketu, which can blunt or even eradicate humane empathy.

Chandra in Mūla - Vichruta is especially reckless with matters of emotional health and well-being.

" An accident waiting to happen."

  • Life seems to produce one"accident"after the next. Yet, the native recovers from each and every crisis, no matter how apparently deadly.

  • After each recovery, the native begins a new cycle self-destructive choices which rather inevitably produce the next"accident" .

Counseling the Mula Client

  • When counseling the Mula client, it is important to appreciate that the Mula native rarely realizes that one is making systematically self-destructive choices .

  • Indeed, mūla's choices follow a reckless, apathetic, Ketu-driven pattern that is easy enough for an outsider to detect. However, the Mula native subjectively perceives oneself as an innocent victim of a series of Amazing accidents.

Emotional distancing

  • Chandra in Ketu-ruled Nakshatra (Aśvini, magha, Kula) is generally characterized by an emotional distancing from others, even from one's own children.

  • Also Ketu imposes a certain blunting of the interpersonal awareness, so that one may be able to engage in intimate relationships only at the most primitive survival or sexual level.

Humble, religious nature

  • Naturally, mūla's fundamental disengagement from the world of"natural consequences " leads to a host of physical, social, emotional, and mental problems.

However, mula influence is surprisingly good for the religious life. Mūla-born may feel an ever deepening sense of shock and awe at the intensity of life's "random" events.

Mula is characteristically unable to comprehend the cause-and-effect ways in which one's own choices can attract the perfect conditions for a major life catastrophe. Based on a life narrative featuring crisis after crisis, One may attribute great and glorious powers to a merciful God who seems to be wrathfully destructive -- and who yet offers salvation, time after time.

Although Mula does often demonstrate a lack of empathy [Ketu], one may have strongly spiritualized nature [Ketu] and provide surprisingly compassionate [Guru] support for others.

BP Lama commentary = Mula Moola Vichruta Alaxmi Nakshatra


Mūla (moola, the root) causes unusually self-destructive psychic and spiritualized reasoning patterns.

  • Mula natives suffer more than their fair share of accidents, indignities, and loss.

  • Mula folk Typically, remain surprised and bewildered about the roots of their condition.

  • The chain of repeating misfortune is a mystery to them.

  • How this pattern could be anything else than a strange and magical series of random, terrible accidents?

Indeed there is no random accident. Yet, it is the rare Mula born who can discern the Root of the problem!


milky_way_galaxy_gal_sun_earth_sun.jpg Galactic Sun

The image at right = a stylized top-down view of the Earth's larger region = Milky Way = white galaxy.

The galactic Sun is a bright star which resides at the center of the Milky Way galaxy.

The image shows the relative position of the Earthen Sun (Savitra).

The swa(s)tika symbol, before it was demonically appropriated by the Nazi regime, served as a many-millennia-old map of Terra's home galaxy.

to see the old map, draw an anti-clockwise Vedic-era swa (self, home, root) + tika (map, marker) upon the photo to right

The rose flower, sacred and symbolic to many traditions, bears the map as well.

So naturally does the lotus flower.

The sacred Tibetan-pronunciation-Buddhist mantra OM Mani Peme Hung [om mani padme hum] = "hail to the jewel in the center of the lotus ".

Mula influence suggests that a part of one's divine consciousness still harkens back to a previous incarnation, not in Earth, but in the sacred-but-terrifying world of the Galactic Sun.

In between Earth incarnations (which are rather demanding although quite desirable for pre-incarnationally planned purposes) our souls may take intermediary incarnations (which is rather a misnomer because only in Earth do we get these famous "meat-bodies "!)

  • One of the potential locales for a stop-over lifetime is the realm of the Galactic Sun.

This brilliant star is the center of our galaxy and it is a wonderful place in many ways. If one has the privilege to linger there, one becomes more god-like for the duration of one's stay.

The physical-body form is long-lived while in this realm; stupendously strong, alert and perceptive but not suspicious (suspiciousness is a component of the animal bodies we utilize here in Earth); and glamorously attractive as only the gods can be.

The consciousness here is much closer to the core of divine intelligence and Con-fidence runs very high. Of course, egoic-mind membrane runs pretty high too, and there are social issues of competition for attention and dominance, proportional to godly life - on a large scale!

Returning to Earth, one has only the barest background memory, never fully conscious, of this previous incarnational experience. The lingering subconscious memories do however cause polarizing catalysis for anyone with graha in Mūla nakshatra, particularly Chandra in any of the Mula pada (see Shil Ponde's description of the Mula quarters, above.)

The polarizing catalysis is worst when Chandra (Moon) occupies Mula, but a strong Sun in Mula will also show some effects. Essentially, the native takes crazy risks, believing that the risks have much less destructive potential than they really do have for humans.


Scattered, optimistic Mula

associated with catastrophic events and failures after taking too-big risks .

Due to Mula memories overflow from the galactic center, one subconsciously believes one has the ability, the strength, the determination, or the intelligence to overcome the obstacles which others rightly fear -- or survive the risk.

Mula measurements in all departments of life - but especially the emotional areas - tend to be unrealistic [Ketu]. The Mula issues will depend on which graha and which domain.

  • The Mula mind tends toward overestimation of human capabilities, and the results are often catastrophic.

  • However, mula generally gives a happy attitude of bewilderment, rather than resentment or guilt.

Mula reasoning produces very sensible conclusions for a god or one with a god-like body and god-like access to divine rejuvenating powers.

Humans are much more vulnerable to forces of Earth Nature and the backlash of human social punishment than they sometimes appreciate.

Mula memories signal that one can beat the system through one's (super) natural endowment and the power of Faith.

  • Ketu-ruled Mula = Intuitive Faith in one's own centrality.

  • Unfortunately, from a third-dimensional Earth-based perspective, the greater center of the beloved blue-green loka = difficult to see or even imagine. Modern science has not quite matured enough to confirm the vision of the rishi.

  • Mula born have a powerful sense of their core importance to the welfare of their group. However, the group often finds Mūla's leadership style to be misinformed, incomplete, over-confident, lacking core strength or core viability.

  • Attracted to vacuums, to claims with no precedent, to empty lands and wandering, mula tend to affiliate with a Hopeless Cause. Occasionally a [Mūla] born has the tenacity to realize the achievement of impossible goals.

" And now my friends,

all that is true,

all that is noble,

all that is just and pure,

all that is loveable and gracious,

whatever is excellent and admirable -

fill all your thoughts with these things."
