Hello JupiterLight,

This is Hasta NK.This is the 13th nakshatra of the zodiac, ruled by Moon. Hasta spans from 10°-0' to 23°-20' in Kanya.People born in this Nakshatra are very creative.
Hasta people are skilled in everything related to hand. They are gifted craftsmen, healers, artists and palmists.
Am I right?

Arre baap re..itna dimag lagana hai kya?......mujhe nahi khelna...

[JupiterLight]

Hi,

I would go for Vishakha because one of its symbols (less known of the two I think) is the potter's wheel and here we have a potter. The clay fashioned by the potter is brought to life and shaped into different forms which are the experiences of life that make us mature - while the hands are the hands of destiny. The wheel of the potter also because of great churning that takes place, this is where the Moon gets debilitated.

Excellent answer! Correct! Bonus point awarded.

Hi Jupiterlight,

It is Vishakha!

Hi JupiterLight

This one has to be Hasta - the emphasis on each & every finger:
- 4 fingers of the hand show 4 motivations: artha, kama, dharma & moksha;
- the 3 digits on the fingers are the 3 gunas: rajas, tamas & sattva;
- the 4 fingers are the 4 directions: north, south, east & west;
- fingers & thumbs show the 5 senses: sight, hearing, taste, smell & touch;
- fingers & thumbs show the 5 elements: water, earth, sky, air & fire
The hand & the palm is the complete destiny, right & left hands for positive & negative, male & female energies.
The hand shows knowledge and that's why Mercury gets exalted there.

Hello JupiterLight,
This is Hasta NK......more than NK I m pretty sure abt this pic of Ash...taken from Berlin Film Festival...

[sita]

Hello Jupiterlight,

This one is Mrigashira.This is the fifth nakshatra of the zodiac, spanning from 23°-20' in Vrishabha to 6°-40' in Mithuna.
The word 'Mriga' represents forests, gardens, a search, a seeking to find, to roam about in forests and a hunter, to seek to blaze the trail, a guide and preceptor.

[JupiterLight]

Points awarded to Hina, Sita, Nina
Bonus to Sita and Nina for explanation.

Hello JupiterLight,

It is Moola/Mula NK...
The meaning of the word, Moola means the root.The Symbol is a bunch of roots tied together.
This is the 19th nakshatra of the zodiac and is ruled by Nirriti, the Goddess of destruction.
Moola connotes the ideas of foundation, commencement, from the very bottom.

Keep Smiling

Hi Hina,

We're all on different time zones!!

Mrigshira

Hey Jupiterlight, give me some time before posting reply. I am on a different time-zone.

Yes, but actually sometimes i put new pictures within 2 hours, which is wrong, so its my fault.
Ill limit to max 2 NK per day to give everyone chance to reply.

[Hina]

I second Mula too!

[swamykool]

Mula. Symbol - a bunch of roots tied together and a teardrop. Ruled by Ketu, deity Nairriti/Alakshmi. First three degrees are gandanta degrees. Seriously bad news.

[kandhan]

swamycoolji

teardrop is also the symbol for Ardra right? looks like some symbols overlap.
