#aslesha

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.

Let’s talk about Lesbian pop culture and Sapphic dynamics in art, media and Astrology!

Disclaimer: This is not a breakdown of what nakshatra or sign is most commonly ‘sapphic’ moreso an observation of the most mainstream ‘ideal’ sapphic dynamic referenced in lesbian spaces as a lesbian who is very #tappedin. These aren’t just anything lesbian, particularly lesbian media and pop culture that actually goes viral in lesbian spaces as ‘ideal lesbianism goals’

[070 Shake and Lily Rose Depp]

Solar and Lunar Nakshatras might cosmically create a ‘sun x moon’ sapphic dynamic that accentuates the beautiful polarities that come with a relationship between two women. Even when one isn’t “masc” or one isn’t “femme”, it seems to create a beautiful yin and yang pairing in romantic relations between women that tend to be idolized by lesbians.

In many lesbian films (not always the case), I’ve noticed the Sun character is usually more vivacious, impulsive, and confident in the fact that they are attracted to women, and implores their more sheltered and reluctant lunar love interest to explore their sexuality further.

COMPHET THEORY AND ADRIENNE RICH (Krittika Sun)

What is Comphet? : (the term was coined by lesbian Krittika Sun Native Adrienne Rich. She claims that heterosexuality is compulsory in women. And that women are pressured into being straight by the patriarchy. Hence why many women may live entire lives in romantic relationships with men, and not knowing that they are bisexual or lesbians.

[Soledad Miranda in Vampyros Lesbos]

In ‘Vampyros Lesbos’ the famous Lesbian Vampire seductress “Carmilla” is played by Uttara Phalguni Soledad Miranda.

Carmilla is often credited to be the most classic representation of vampires in art and media, and most classic lesbian rep in this past millennium, even inspiring Dracula himself. The book was written by Sheridan Le Fanu and published in 1872.

Hot Take Time!!!!!!

I do not agree with the interpretations of Sun Nakshatras being ‘male centered’ due to their solar ‘masculine’ principle (I may be biased just because I have been entirely the opposite all my life as a krittika who never got along with men. And who was always critical of my female friend’s boyfriends since I was a child.) BUTTTT i honestly think this is a Hetero-centric interpretation of Sun Nakshatras which I get since most people are straight.

But with solar energy being very common in the most famous sapphic films, I do not think Sun Nakshatras are biased towards any gender at all actually. They can at worst, behave as impassive and detached towards anyone. They act as an effortless, free-spirited “manic pixie / cool girl” to any gender romantically interested in them. And this attribute of sun naks is commonly considered attractive across the sexuality spectrum. Hence why queer women tend to be attracted to the yang energy of these women (ie: sapphic tik tok raving about the nonchalant masc, or the ‘dom femme’.)

If they get along with men, it’s because men are “low maintenance” friends who don’t mind being ghosted every other month, which works well for Sun Nakshatra sensibilities. But I don’t think even in that case, it becomes a dislike for women as an entire gender. Moreso, it is a dislike for traditional friendship expectations, or even patriarchal expectations, including traditional standards of femininity and beauty standards etc which many hyper-feminine women might generally enjoy. Which sun Nakshatras might find too time consuming or restrictive given how vivacious and speedy they are. And therefore not always find common interests with these specific women. But Sun Nakshatras overall seem to have platonic and/or romantic inclinations towards women. Sun Nakshatras are seemingly represented as romantically sapphic (at least bisexual) and drawn towards women and gender-queer people. Or even appreciate femininity in others and themselves, as long as it doesn’t feel restrictive.

In ‘But I’m a Cheerleader’ The Uttara Phalguni Love interest Graham is a more confident self-assured lesbian in comparison to the reluctant hyper-feminine cheerleader main character Megan, who is struggling with comphet.

[Solar Nakshatras are often at the scene of the crime in sapphic pop culture. And Lunar Nakshatras show up commonly as well.]

Regardless of if sun naks are straight or queer, I believe this is a common dynamic they can have with other women. Many times an inspiration and a distant ‘muse’ of independence and freedom for other women. Rather than just a patronizing force of misogyny and condescension towards other women, like how some people interpret on Vedic centric socials. (Although we can see that for some sun naks obviously like Nicki Minaj. I just don’t think it’s inherently a solar attribute)

My Aslesha moon friend who recently came out as a lesbian, told me that she needed a ‘Graham from But I’m A Cheerleader’ (Uttara Phalguni) to come into her life. To ooze out that effortless, ‘cool’ dyke confidence and self-assurance. And that was the most Sun X Moon thing I’ve ever heard!

(Though her sexuality hasn’t been updated since her olympic’s virality, Alysa Liu has had the lesbian flag as her Tik Tok profile picture so it’s widely known she is at the very least Sapphic.)

Even within Lesbian and Bisexual identity. The lesbian flag has been labeled the “Sunset Lesbian Flag” and bisexuality has always been attributed to the moon. So as you can see, Sun and Moon symbolism is very intertwined with sapphic imagery.

Anyway this is my first Vedic analysis. I want to focus on queer media specifically when I talk about astrology in art because it is so under explored. Hope you enjoyed!

Ashlesha

I've been listening to That's So True on repeat for a whole week.

Gracie is Ashlesha moon, P.Phalguni sun. Vishakha rising, Shravana ketu.

I mean, I already said how Bharani and Ashlesha girls/women might find odd or specific similarities between them, even if they're different. (I'm bharani moon, i've always thought she was sort of "like me"😭). And she also has venusian sun. Double Mleccha nakshatra activation in big three(ashlesha and vishakha) and Shravana_mleccha again as ketu.

Mleccha nakshatras are called outcaste. In a lot of graphs of castes those 4 nakshatras are not at the bottom but simply out of it.

I've observed that they have the most natural and huge power if they only find the right time/circumstances to harness and direct it. Mleccha is unrestrained and relentless in a way.

And something interesting that I never said that I want to make a post about: mleccha nakshatras all square each other, two pairs make two oppositions. This is the only caste that does so. And the times in the year that sun transits each of them(or near them) are traditional festivities(Sabbats) of Samhain, Imbolc, Beltane and Lughnasadh.

That's So True is very Ashlesha and Vishakha. She's said this song was written as she and her friend were having fun venting about this guy that dissapointed her while sitting on a rooftop, slightly drunk if I rememeber correctly😄😭. Vishakha is asociated with wine and intoxication, with passion and generating energy from accumulating and then releasing. The fact that she released all those emotions while half-soberly venting to a friend, then it effortlessly turning into having fun while making an incredibly great song and that song then becoming her most famous one to date is just sooo Vishakha, that's a staple Vishakha story that is a perfect example.

And Ashlesha is obviously constantly showing up in stories about young women being dissapointed by men, especially regarding romantic and/or sexual relationships.

The way the song flows so naturally feels very Shravana and Vishakha to me. Shravana is all about flow, reading between the lines, innuendos. Vishakha is most likely the influence that makes her say those passive aggressive(?)/sort of savage things in the song. The bridge is also very Vishakha, the song was building up to it and then she just does not hold back.

"Made it out alive, but I think I lost it

Said that I was fine, said it from my coffin

Remember how I died when you started walking?

That's my life, that's my life

I put up a fight, taking off my earrings

Don't you know the vibe?

Don't you know the feeling?

You should spend the night, catch me on your ceiling

That's your prize, that's your prize, well..."

Ashlesha: Diary of a Monster

I researched the placements of actors that played men in films who were obsessive, possessive and are stalkers, kidnappers, or simply involved in fatal attraction.

This research first began by looking into the charts of all the men who played Michael Myers in Bharani moon native Rob Zombie’s Halloween.

Tyler Mane (Halloween 2007)- Mars Hasta, Chitra Libra moon* ,Mercury Anuradha.

Daeg Faerch (Halloween 2007)- Mars Vishaka Libra, Venus Hasta, Jupiter Jyeshtha, Swati moon*

Chase Vanek (Halloween 2009)- Mars Rohini, Vishaka Libra moon*, Venus Rohini

At first, I thought it was interesting because I seen that the common theme was Venus, which would answer the gruesomeness of the films and why they embody so much destruction and horror. Then, I was curious to see if this was a reoccurring theme in other movies that play on horror this way but ended up diving in a deep hole of films where the main actor is obsessive.

Using @thehiddenoctave method of chain of lordship, I found that, often, these actors had a lot of moon, Venus, and Mercury influence, especially mars in a Moon/Soma influenced sign/nakshatra. Every sign in the mars placement, whether it was in a Venus, Mercury, or Moon rasi/nakshatra, was influenced by another planet that also had those three categories of rasi/nakshatra.

In other words, the charts were saturated with emotional, sensual, and mental stimulation. Heavy Moon, Mercury, Venus in a chart may reveal desire, fixation, and complexity in the way love and madness are expressed. What I've also observed was a lot of the actors had Uttaraphalguni placements, especially Virgo, and Pluto in Magha (If you're into generational planets).

I also found a striking behavioral distinction based on which planetary influence was dominant. Actors with a more pronounced Venusian presence, more so mars in a Venus rasi/nak, tended to portray men who acted swiftly, boldly, and sometimes violently to pursue their love interests- Characters who would kill, kidnap, or destroy for the sake of love. On the other hand, those with stronger Moon or Mercury influences or in the mars placement, especially Shravana, showed obsession in subtler, more psychological ways: they observed, lingered, or schemed quietly until their fixation escalated into action.

Below are a list of actors with films that deal with obsession or fatal attraction (* Unconfirmed moon placement):
