BHARANI NAKSHATRA ** to love, to make, to take

situated between 13°20’ – 26°40’ of sidereal Aries

Rashi ruling planet: Mars
Vimshotorri Dasha ruling planet: VENUS

Symbolized by the female organs/YONI
Presiding deity – Yama- lord of karma & gateways.

Yama is responsible to taking souls to astral plane for liberation or to be reincarnated into the next life.
Associated deity: Kali – कालिका – translates to “she who wears black”/”she who is death”

I was inspired to make this thread after watching @theestallion ‘s new video “BODY”. I feel like Meg is an essential example of the traits of Bharani nakshatra as she has Bharani Ascendant.

The reason I see Bharani so heavily on her is because her Moon, Magha, is associated with Ketu and her Ketu is in Bharani. in her first house of identity, appearance, head, physical BODY. She is the embodiment of Bharani.

The womb or the YONI is especially important for those who have Bharani nakshatra prominent in their chart. The womb is imprinted on via intercourse and sexual activity. Meg takes pride in participating in downloading the power from other men with her KITTY KAT

The paradoxical energy between Venus + Mars is explored in this nakshatra: These natives tend to love others sometimes more than they love themselves. (especially for Bharani Moons) They also make it a point to speak out against any societal paradigms that keep women enclosed in-

who they “think” they should be. Bharani is dualistic in this nature: a woman can do anything a man can do while still being feminine.

Meryl Streep – Bharani Moon – in “The Devil Wears Prada” she plays Miranda Priestley editor in chief of RUNWAY magazine (similar to Vogue and Anna Wintour) who is a ruthless critic and invokes fear in the entire industry. She’s in a big boss role that we usually see men in.

I believe Anne Hathaway and Emily Blunt’s characters can be viewed as the two attendees of Yama. In mythology their names are Kalapurusa and Chanda who “usher in the souls to an audience” with Yama, I find it interesting in this still they are all wearing black.

Demi Lovato – Bharani Moon – she has had a chaotic life. All of her hardships with herself have brought her closer to personal intimacy. In a lot of her songs she expresses her struggle with sobriety and love. Giving so much to someone and feeling cheated with the love in return.

Essentially, she beats herself up more than anything- see-sawing between being loving and gracious and fighting herself.

Song: “I Love Me” – Demi Lovato

Theres an ongoing crisis within Bharani natives. They always feel as if there is this lingering pain within them that cannot be soothed. These people tend to always looks for an escape or a distraction from the surviving pain in their heart.

“Distraction” – Kehlani(Bharani Merc)

One of my favorite writers, Edgar Allan Poe (Bharani Ketu), channeled this darkness and pain which I feel is an accurate expression of Bharani. If we take a look at one of his works, The Raven, the narrator is engulfed by the pain of losing his wife.

The Raven only says “Nevermore” taunting the narrator so much he gets agitated by the end. Yama doesn’t just collect souls, he passes judgment on them. How do you get judged most of the time? You get tested.

Bharani natives are often tested by life itself to showcase their resilience or to lead them to a new route.

Chris Brown (Bharani Sun + Moon) his birth data is questionable because he posted his birthchart one time and the Jupiter was in a different sign than what it was supposed to be in 1989… I digress. Bharani sun regardless—

I’ve mentioned the dualistic nature of Bharani- Aries being ruled by Mars and the dasha lord of this placement being Venus. A few weeks after Chris Brown entered his Mars Dasha 2009(if his moon sign is correct) he is involved in the tragic domestic abuse case w/ Rihanna as victim

When MARTIAN and RAHU qualities take control over Bharani they can sometimes be uncontrollable. They act out in ways that they never saw themselves acting in. They’re off balance with Mars leading them for 7 years of their life.

Later on in the same year, Chris Brown released the song “I Can Transform Ya”. Bharani can “transform ya” only because they transform themselves. The internal work is an integral part of Bharani’s healing. Aries is a fire sign and mars is a Red planet –

Fire is used to heal just as much as it is used to destroy. Notice the color similarities in this video and Meg’s BODY video.

And also note how red shows itself in the works of Aries natives! (what comes from a vagina? blood. blood is red. lmao dont take this part 2 srs)

Why does Chris Brown have a career after such an unforgivable action? Bharani’s shakti (power): To take things away and move on” or “Power to cleanse and Remove impurities” thus healing ones self and allowing others to see it.

Lindsay Lohan – Bharani Moon – similar to Chris Brown, during her Mars dasha (rahu antardasha) her career status plummeted due to drugs and alcohol. Bharani is off balance: the nature of her moon, the receptive cosmic womb, had been compromised.

I notice with Bharani Moons(being born into Venus dasha), their parents tend to give them whatever they want in the beginning of their lives. Allowing them to enjoy the pleasures of life and luxury without any opposition.

Robert Downey Jr – Bharani Moon – his father was a film director and gave him money, drugs, and opportunity to do whatever he wanted.

“It is possible to have an idea of the nature of Bharani Nakshatra from the nature of Rahu, Mangal(Mars) & Yama” - BPHS. Notice how Rahu and Mars are mentioned and I stated earlier that during these back to back dasha periods for Bharani natives there can be chaos.

Camila Cabello – Bharani Ascendant – I close this thread with the way I started it: TO LOVE, TO MAKE, TO TAKE

Her “My Oh My” music video encapsulates the characteristics of Bharani as well as the dualistic, Mars/Venus, nature I’ve explored earlier.

She’s sick of having to be the damsel and distress and she wants to be a HERO. Roles usually given to men.

Same here with Christina Aguilera(Bharani Moon), her song "Dirrty" going against societal norms of women needing to be put together, clean, kept up and well rounded. Shes in a boxing arena here, a sport dominated by men.

Bharani is burning. Burning trauma, transforming chaos into self love, turning pain into freedom. You can find similar themes in all nakshatras residing in Aries. Their lesson is to reach out for help instead of fending for themselves.

My advice to those who have this nakshatra and will be going through Mars dasha sooner/later: CHANNEL VENUS. With all your might allow yourself to receive pleasure instead of always trying to get it. This can be difficult for the men, but there are different ways you can do this.

Those entering their Rahu dasha, moderation and innovation are key. A new route needs to be taken and you have to figure out how to change course yourself.

House placement, sign and aspects must all be considered as well. They also provide details for what could unfold for you in this time period.

Hope you found this thread useful.
