ABOUT SHATABISHA

Shatabisha is the twenty-fourth Nakshatra and falls in Aquarius (Kumbha), from 6°40′ to 20°00′. Saturn is the lord of the sign, and the presiding deity is Varuna, the god of the cosmic waters in the sky and on earth. The oceans, rivers and lakes are said to derive from this star, which also signifies aquatic life.

Shatabisha is ruled by Rahu, and it is the pinnacle of Rahu’s energy. It is a group of a hundred faint stars, which stands for a hundred physicians and a hundred medicines. It has the power of healing and great remedial power: it heals and brings revitalisation.
