At the same time, from everything that I have studied in depth for a long time, this nakshatra also represents the path of man evolving towards self-mastery and increased levels of consciousness through self-discipline and restraint on their primal, sexual urges. The desire of this nakshatra is “May I be Lord of the Animals.” Men remain animals in a sense if they do not rise above their primal urge to reproduce through self-restraint and discipline (tapasya, which Aryaman has a close connection to as well — the Path of the Arya. Specifically through meditation though. The hammock symbol of this nakshatra is said to represent a “meditative state of mind”). This is why the women of this nakshatra seek to tame men or gain prosperity through them by taking control of their sexual urges (shakti: to gain wealth or prosperity through marriage or union).

This nakshatra represents the role which men & women fulfill in the Circle of Life. How to become a “real man” or a “real woman.” It’s the union of the sexes (marriage, which Aryaman rules, is not recognized as real unless it has been consummated. It is not the contract, which Aryaman also rules, that creates a marriage, but rather the committed sexual partnership between two people).

Ultimately, this nakshatra pays respects to the yoni as the ultimate source of creation (the beginning of the Circle of Life)

That is why we see Uttara Phalguni natives like Kurt Cobain & Doja Cat honoring the power of the yoni through songs like “Moist V*gina” & “Wet V*gina”

We also must remember that Bharani is connected to the process of the Circle of Life, its symbol is the yoni, and it has the desire “May I be Lord of the Ancestors.” The god which rules Uttara Phalguni, Aryaman, is the King of the Ancestors himself.

Doja Cat has a song called “Agora Hills.” Aghora = Left Hand Path. She says “kissing and hope they caught us” in the song. This connects to the exhibionist factor of this nakshatra which we see more clearly through Claire Nakti’s survey on p*rnstars, which Uttara Phalguni women dominated. These women are often encouraged, or naturally feel inspired, to truly own the sexual aspect of the Circle of Life (hence, the bed symbolism). That’s why this nakshatra deals with being a “Late Bloomer” not just in a sexual sense but in a spiritual sense as well. It’s the initiation into adulthood (from the Child that is Leo/5H to the hardworking and responsible adult that is Virgo/6H) or “manhood” or “womanhood” which is typically not seen as complete until one awakens their sexuality. All of this connects to Adam and Eve being the first man and woman and them eating the fruit which enlightened them to their own sexual nature (fundamentally, they experienced their Kundalini awakening).

The natives often stand out from their peers in their youth because they have other lessons to learn and generational curses (Pitru Dosha) to break. The women may avoid men at all costs because they feel disgusted by men’s lustful behavior or they may take advantage of men’s lustfulness for their own prosperity and desires. They also stay away from men because they understand that they are portals for souls to enter Earth through and that because of this they are keys for men extending lineages through as well. They typically feel as though men are not worthy enough of this. That’s why right around the beginning of Ketu’s transit through Uttara Phalguni, the 4B movement and “women in male dominated fields” became a huge trend.

Bagalamukhi Devi is traditionally associated with Mars, but as she represents control over our movements (physical postures/asanas in Hatha Yoga) through self-awareness, she can also be correlated with Sun as it is the planet of consciousness (self-awareness) and inner authority. Sun is the purifier of internal & external impurities (darkness/ignorance). Her ability to paralyze enemies is highly symbolic of this enemy-defeating quality of Sun (Uttara Ashadha = Undefeatable).

This Mahavidya Goddess is directly connected to stillness & control over the breath through asanas & pranayama. On a very interesting note, both Nicki Minaj and Doja Cat were rapping while in these poses, demonstrating their ability to control both their physical posture and breath at the same time!

Bagalamukhi, essentially, deals with physical posture. All three of these women above are expressing these qualities of Sun/Mars through their Sun/Mars nakshatra placements ☀️
