#shesha

Some fun pictures of Shesha in and around various parts of her enclosure.

what if sheshnag avatars have fangs bc well fucking snake (so like lakshman, balaram, and nityananda) and they all have different vibes to them

for lakshman theyre more fierce and menacing looking, balaram's is more cheeky and playful looking, and nitai's is more puppy and sweet looking

(also side note lakhan and dau would totes find it weird how nitai is so sunshine and calm unlike both of them lol but theyd totes claim him like the kill everyone and then myself meme that floats on tumblr)

Theyre literally this meme

My question is, what insight can be gathered about Moon in the 11th house in Uttara Bhadrapada

thank you for your kindness babe !! here's what i have to say about the moon in both of these particular positions:

MOON IN THE 11H:

whenever there's lunar influence over the 11H (or even jupiter in the 11H), this usually makes the native exhibit a very warm, "mom friend" energy. they will care very deeply about their friends and their friendships will be super central to their lives, their identities, their habits, etc. also a placement that puts a lot of emphasis on chosen family compared to their biological family. not that their immediate family isn't important to them, but the moon in the 11H never forgets the importance of a true friend — family is born from blood, but it can also be born from a bond.

the moon in the 11H is also a very activist-like placement; they prefer to pursue careers that are really one-on-one, personal, community-oriented, and based around civic organization. usually someone who cares more about grassroots work rather than being some huge political or government figure. even though the moon in the 11H is a fabulous placement with a lot of potential for public recognition, in my years, i've noticed these natives don't often seek fame. they are much more comfortable being known by their community instead of being known by the entire world.

MOON IN UTTARA BHADRAPADA:

when you put the moon in any of the snake nakshatras (rohini, mrigashira, ashlesha, u. bhadrapada), this often creates a personality that is more secretive, cautious, deliberate, and very sensitive to their environment. snakes have an exceptional sense of smell that allows them to completely map out their physical surroundings through one single sense. so when you consider the fact that u. bhadarapada is also housed in the sign of pisces, a highly emotionally absorbent sign, these individuals can become very cagey and almost skittish because of how susceptible and perceptive they are of other people's emotions. having the moon in pisces is no easy task; you have your moon, one of the most sensitive places of the chart, in the sign that rules empathy, vulnerability, and compassion. pisces moons always feel so obligated to take care of others and they often forget to prioritize their own needs. and uttara bhadrapada's symbolism only adds to this !! this nakshatra's ruling deity is Ahirbudhnya, otherwise known as Lord Shesha, the King of Serpents. and Lord Shesha holds all the planets in the universe atop His countless snake hoods to keep everything stable. just like uttara bhadrapadas carry everybody else's problems on their shoulders and bring so much stability to those around them. learn to delegate and remember to offload your own issues from time to time.

book a reading !!

Naga 2 – Shesha, the king of the serpents [Part 1]

The Brahma Purana describes the reign of Shesha as the king of the serpents in Patala:

During the night the light of the moon is not utilised for its coolness but only for illumination.

Since that passes away is not taken notice of by the Nāgas who enjoy with gaiety the foodstuffs and the edibles they consume and the great beverages they drink. 

Nor are Danujas and others aware of it.

O brahmins, the forests, rivers, lakes, and lotus ponds, the cooing of the cuckoo and other sweet birds, the pleasing skies, the unguents and the continuous notes and sounds of musical instruments such as the lute, flute and Mṛdaṅga drums, O brahmins—all these and other beautiful things are enjoyed by virtue of their good luck by Dānavas, Daityas and Nāgas residing in Pātāla. The Tāmasī form of Viṣṇu, named Śeṣa (Shesga) beneath the lower regions.

Daityas and Dānavas are not capable of recounting his good qualities. He is honoured by Devas and celestial sages. He is spoken of as Ananta. He has a thousand hoods and he is clearly bedecked in Svastika ornaments devoid of impurities. He illuminates all quarters by thousand jewels on his hoods.

— Brahma Purana, Chapter 19

ナーガ 2 〜 蛇の王、シェーシャ(難陀竜王) （その1）

『ブラフマ・プラーナ』には、冥界 (ﾊﾟｰﾀｰﾗ)における蛇の王としてのシェーシャの治世が描かれている：

夜の間、月の光は涼しさのためではなく、灯りとしてのみ活用される。

月明かりが過ぎ去ってしまわないので、ナーガたちは、彼らが食い潰すことを許された食材や食べ物、そして彼らが飲む格別な飲み物を歓喜して楽しむが、そのことに注意を払わない。また、ダヌージャたちもそれに気づかない。

バラモンたちよ、森、川、湖、蓮池、カッコウなどの鳥の鳴き声、心地よい空、香油、リュート、フルート、ムリダンガム太鼓の楽器の絶え間ない響きや音、これらすべての美しいものは、パーターラに住むダーナヴァ、ダイティヤ、ナーガたちの幸運によって享受されている。シェーシャという名のヴィシュヌの魔性形は、下界の下にいる。 

ダイティアとダーナヴァは、彼の善良な資質を語ることができない。彼はデーヴァと天界の賢者によって尊ばれている。彼はアナンタとして語られる。彼は千の頭巾を持ち、不純物のないスヴァスティカの装飾品ではっきりと飾られている。彼は頭巾の上の千の宝石によってすべての四方を照らす。
