☀️ Meaning & Mythology

Purva and Uttara Phalguni are two parts of a whole nakshatra of four stars, which resemble a bed. Uttara means 'east' — the eastern, male energy to Purva's female. Phal means 'fruit' and guni means 'connected to gunas or good qualities.' This nakshatra has the capacity to fulfil our desires on a materialistic level.

Uttara Phalguni is ruled by the Sun — the ruler of the universe, the significator of authority and power. The deity Aryaman is another Sun god, son of Aditi. Uttara Phalguni allows the soul to recognize its own failings and the restrictions imposed by its limited destiny in this life — working for perfection, maturity of the soul, and the ripening of its 'fruit.'

🐂 Symbol: Four Legs of a Bed

The four legs of the bed represent the sexual energy of the soul, the downward flow of the power. Each leg represents the sheaths in which the soul becomes entangled — the physical, the ethereal, the astral and the mental. The number four also represents the four heads of Brahma, the four directions, and the four Vedas.

🌟 Aim for Moksha

Uttara Phalguni reflects complete involvement in the material aspects of life, yet its motivation of moksha reveals they recognize the bigger picture. Outwardly enjoying the fruits of life, but mentally there is a restless search for something more. The spirit is pure — they know the innocence of their spiritual self and will always remain true to it.

☀️ Personality & Characteristics

Uttara Phalguni are giving people. Friendly and warm, charismatic and attractive. They lead by example. Like their animal sign, the bull, they can carry out boring tasks such as tilling the soil for planting new seeds — virile, strong and courageous. Good planners and strategists, but insecurities and tensions can make them act in a completely different way.
