ABOUT BHARANI

Bharani is the second of the 27 Nakshatras and falls in the zodiac sign Aries (Mesha), from 13°20′ to 26°40′. Its presiding deity is Lord Yama, the God of death, and its planetary lord is Venus, the planet of good fortune, enjoyment and earthly pleasures. Those born under Bharani tend to live a life of abundance and enjoy the best that life offers, with all kinds of material comforts.

In the words of Varahamihira, the Moon’s influence gives Bharani natives resourcefulness, honesty, health and happiness.

Bharani is a bright and active nakshatra. Its natives are determined, truthful and strong willed. They have attractive personalities and love a comfortable life. They are full of energy and take an interest in many different things.

STRENGTHS

Those with the Moon in Bharani are spontaneous, optimistic and courageous. When they believe something is right, they do not hesitate to fight for it, and they dislike being controlled or manipulated by others.

They are intelligent and resolve many problems through diplomacy and efficiency. They have a cheerful, caring nature, are friendly and loyal to those close to them, and like to give their family every comfort.

CHALLENGES

Bharani natives live by their own principles and cannot bear domination. They look for logic in everything, and are often disliked for it.

Bharani is a star of bearing, so those with the Moon here tend to carry other people’s burdens and may end up feeling suppressed and low. They dislike competition, can be jealous, and may find it hard to accept the prosperity of others.

Being outspoken, they are often disliked despite having a pure heart. At times they behave like a newborn child, insensitive to their surroundings, and at other times they seem fearful and anxious about life.

Tact does not come easily to them. They like to command and are eager to establish supremacy, and friends may turn away because they find it hard to keep lasting relationships.

CAREER

Publishers and writers, film and music professionals, occultists, psychics, hypnotists, astrologers, psychologists, entrepreneurs and business people, financial consultants, lawyers, builders, those who work with children and childbirth, and the hospitality industry (caterers, cooks and hotel staff).

HEALTH

Those with the Moon in Bharani may be prone to dental problems, diabetes, severe body pain, brain disorders, high fever, apoplexy, ringworm and malaria.

REMEDY FOR BHARANI NATIVES

Regular prayers to Goddess Mahalakshmi are highly beneficial for natives of Bharani.

Repeat the root mantra of this nakshatra, “Om Eem”, 108 times when the Moon transits Bharani and during its corresponding lunar month. It is believed to reduce suffering and bring enlightenment into your life.
