It means you’re that girl.

It means you are not out here trying to please people and you please YOU FIRST. You make moves nobody else does and stand on business with folks who don’t even have the courage to say and do what they really want to say/do. You are controversial, risky, cunty!!!

Ashlesha ime is the least out of the mercury nakshatra signs to want everyone to like them or care if no one agrees with them. They aren’t crashing out because no one likes them, they are crashing out because they’re not going to sit there and let you talk about them without their input 😭😭😭

Regardless if you’re wrong or right, they dgaf AT ALL; they will defend themselves cause they have dignity and that’s how they were raised.

ashleshas is a mercury nak but it is in a cancer rashi that is ruled by the moon. the moon is a very sensitive and powerful placement (even if say more powerful than the sun placement in vedic) as it rules your mind and emotions (which ultimately influence the way you act and perceive the world which motivates the way one acts). cancer also resides in the 4th house which is normally considered to be private (all moshka houses are 4th, 8th and 12th) so all cancer rashis (punarvasu, pushya, ashlesha) deal with themes that are more private anyways.

the mercury just adds to the paranoia ashlesha’s face. it’s the only shakti that talks about preservation or attacking someone (or something internally too). there’s a lot of pain ashlesha placements go through and they are EXTREMELY sensitive (moon and mercury at a play) to other people’s energies, and ashleshas also being the most vulnerable out of the cancer rashis (due to the snake association as snakes even though are vicious are extremely vulnerable due to their size and the only thing they can do to protect themselves is to bite someone) and if that means constantly keeping yourself on defense to protect yourself then so be it. but not a lot of people understand that (nor do they have to i guess “hold space” whatever) but i find it interesting that this characteristic is hated towards ashlesha women more than ashlesha men (even though i do hear ashlesha men being talked about negatively time to time but not in the same breath as ashlesha women).

the traits of being closed off and self protective is frowned upon for women, especially as the world makes it so women are constantly defenseless in order to be manipulated and at worst, harmed (i.e the fetish of women being extremely underweight as they can’t defend themselves against men). most women look at other women who act this way and think to themselves “why can’t they do xyz..” and or why can’t they be nicer? but ashlesha’s theme (nagas being apart of the underworld, snakes attacking when most vulnerable, poisonous nature for healing and harm) of being constantly vulnerable, it’s easier to be safe than sorry!

tina turner, marilyn monroe, and whitney houston are all examples of ashlesha women and the kind of stuff they deal with (extremities of it and some other nakshatras add to the equation). cancer rashi placements arent keen on being vulnerable with their traumas so they keep their motives on the low, so similar to ashlesha they may be nasty, almost extremely so, but due to the extreme vulnerability ashleshas go through it’s better to be safe than sorry!

But I feel it also goes back to misogyny. Being cunning, and cold in women is automatically demonized. Cause it’s so foreign, women are expected to be sacrificial, giving, and accommodating. Something that ashleshas CAN be, but due to us, like I said, being exposed to the ugliness of the world at a young age. We tend to be the opposite of what women are expected to be etc.

As an ashlesha I can admit I’m not perfect NOBDOY IS! But at least I can wear it on my sleeve when need be. I feel a lot of people unlike ashleshas are afraid to be the bad guy. I WILL be the bad guy if you get my timing wrong and mess with what I love etc. I never lie and n what I say and do, I’m ashlesha, I can transmute negativity and I’m not afraid of it!!!

A while ago I designated this book as required reading for an understanding of Vedic astrology and Vedic philosophy in general.

Now, I am generally careful with my language, and so I said it was a “must-read”. I didn’t say that I endorsed Vedic philosophy. There is a very big difference. I recommend this book because it will help to give you objective insight into how people think in this spiritual framework.

One thing that we as women must always remember is that just as shitty males exist now, shitty males existed 2000 years ago. And just as shitty males write senseless bullshit now, shitty males wrote senseless bullshit 2000 years ago. Just because something is a classic text doesn’t give it inherent worth. The classic texts are filled with heaps and piles of misogynistic horseshit.

Let me give you an example. Indra, the ruler of Jyeshtha, has a consort named Indrani, also known as Shachi. Shachi’s primary role is described as giving Indra his lofty status. This is of course, dressed up in very romanticized language, like oh Shachi is the SHAKTI and BRILLIANCE of Indra who elevates his GLORY to the highest heights.

But if you look at it for what it really is, it’s just the same old shit where men use women as objects to signal their status. That’s all it is.

And throughout the “spiritual” classics you will find this same drivel littered all over the place, where women are simply proxies for men’s “glory”.

We as women must always question and fight against these horrid constructs so we can move forward as a collective (unlike certain dummies who sell “female path” courses that, instead, reinforce these constructs).

Today we’re gonna be looking at the actual core of the feminine, with regard to a nakshatra we’ve all heard so much about.

Ashlesha is nakshatra that you’ll see a lot in New Age circles and Vedic Twitter and tumblr as being one of the main lunar mansions of “feminine mystique”, whatever the f*ck that means. Yin, magnetic, seductive eyes, frigid sexuality, paralyzing power of the kundalini, tantra queens, makeup, glamor, prostitution, channeling erotic female Lilith energy, etc etc etc etc.

Very much of this is due to what that uwu princess female adept woman has put out into the world, and I have to say… the feminine mystery part is true—just not in the way that one would think, and certainly not in the way that ms. nócty thinks.

Ashlesha is said to be the birth nakshatra of Ketu, which I ruthlessly dragged in another one of my posts. But today we’re going to look at the other side of Ketu. Ketu is associated with strīm̐ (स्त्रीं), the strī bija, which directly translated means the “woman root syllable”. As you may know, Ketu is associated with excavation, spiritual knowledge, looking past superficialities, and the “root” of things. And these significations are of the utmost importance when a woman wants to know her true spiritual power.

Ketu is associated with 2 vidyas: Dhumavati and Tara. Tara is the concept of strī, woman, itself. Both of these goddesses are described as absolutely horrifying to look at; Dhumavati (me, lol) is ugly, old, haggard, frightening, wrinkled, and nasty, and Tara is fat, disheveled, pot-bellied, and described as extremely awkward to look at. And yet… they are the only goddesses who have the ability to save. Not Lakshmi, not Kamala, not Tripura Sundari, not Bhuvaneshwari. Dhumavati brings about Daruna Ratri, which brings about the end of the corruption of the world, and Tara comes from the Sanskrit root word tṝ, which means to cross over or to transcend. Tara is commonly referred to as a boat that takes one over the sea of samsara, and this is confirmed even further by Tara’s association with the Matsya (fish) avatar of Vishnu.

Tara and Dhumavati, along with their yantras

To understand the freeing power of Ketu, especially for women, we have to look at the mythology of the Nagas, the rulers of Ashlesha. They are said to reside in the lowest realm, buried deep (Ketu) under all the others. This realm is known as Patala Loka. Patala Loka is unique in that it is not illuminated by solar bodies like the other realms; it is illuminated by the jewels worn by the Nagas of Patala Loka, each of them having their own brilliance and luster.

“There is no sunlight in the lower realms, but the darkness is dissipated by the shining of the jewels that the residents of Patala wear.”

Ashlesha, according to ms. nǒckty, is characterized by external “feminine mystique” and makeup and glamor that creates the “yin” to attract solar energy to it, since feminine beings—again according to her—are unable to produce their own light.

But if you dive into the deepest realm, characterized by the feminine powers of the Nagas, you’ll see that they have no need for a Sun to provide illumination. Their own gems are enough to bring light to the entirety of Patala Loka. And for all the nǒckty worshipers who by now still haven’t gotten the point: a woman in her most profound state of existence does not need a man to give her anything for her to spiritually progress. What she needs is already within her. All she needs to do is to dive deep within herself to find these gems that are inherent to her. As women, the brilliance of our own consciousness is Tara herself, who is herself Dhumavati, the one who has no consort because she is enough for herself.

This is the true core of the feminine and is the essence of my messaging here. You as a woman have the gift of unimaginable spiritual clarity, and the way to get there is not by dolling up your temporary physical vessel in order to attract a “virile solar being” who will simply reduce you to a physical object to be used and cast aside. You as a woman do it by excavating deep into yourself and finding the mysteries within. You as a woman do it by realizing that YOU are the true virile solar being. And this is how you as a woman cross the ocean of samsara and into liberation.

Oh, look! It’s the yin, coiled, frigid, icy, mysterious, magnetic, feminine serpent tantra queens… who also happen to look exactly like Neanderthals. In the classic texts, Ashlesha is said to cause “trembling in the enemy”. And gurl it’s not hard to see why lol

Here’s the Neanderthal woman par excellence, Marjorie Taylor Greene, Ashlesha Moon:

Marine Le Pen, Ashlesha Sun:

Barbra Streisand, Ashlesha Moon:

Tina Turner, Ashlesha ASC. Notice how cavewoman-like her build is:

Gretchen from Brazil, Ashlesha Sun:

Aren’t these sensual tantra queens so fascinating? Showing us the wonders of Patala Loka? Where the cavewomen gather and bang their tools together going UNGA BUNGA UNGA BUNGA
