Bharani Nakshatra (Cherishing, supporting, & nurturing) (13°20′ – 26°40′ Aries)

In modern astronomy, Bharani nakshatra comprises three stars in the constellation of Aries: 35-Arietes, 39-Arietes, and 41-Arietes. Bharani is an extremely hot star, containing a tremendous amount of fire energy. In the Vedic tradition, there are several qualities of the fire element, and Bharani is the sacred quality that is initially present when fire is first ignited.Those born under this star have the potential to rule due to their fire-burning energy. Bharani is extreme in nature,exploring any direction it chooses, either puritanical or sinful. Therefore, those born under this star oscillate between opposite ends of the spectrums.

Bharani is the foundation of Venusian energy among the nakshatras, giving it tremendous occult knowledge.The main symbol for this star is the yoni or female sexual organs, which signify creativity, sexuality and the cycle of birth and death. Just like the womb, Bharani nakshatra is a sacred place of nurturing and growth with the power to quickly manifest. Bharani natives have a strong character and can withstand the transformations of life. Their naive exuberance enables them to learn and gather information, but it may distract them from finishing what they begin.This nakshatra is one of the most enthusiastic and eager, yet can be challenging to understand.

Sacred Energy Vortex

Nalladai Sri Agneeswarar Temple

The temple in India that resonates with the Bharani nakshatra is located in a village called Mayiladuthurai in Tamil Nadu, India. It is called as "Sri Agneeswarar" temple referring to a form of Lord Shiva "Sri" is a mantra giving respect and good fortune and "Agneeswarar" means Lord of fire. People born under the Bharani star should visit this sacred energy vortex during their lifetime.

Incredible blessings come to those people born under Bharani who perform a fire ritual at the Bharani energy vortex of Nalladai Sri Agneeswarar Temple. The Siddhas say that if the fire ritual is conducted without the assistance of matchstick, but started instead with pure pipal wood, the person would be able to gain the divine blessings. This type of fire is known as Bharani Arani as it originates from the world of the Fire God.

Saint Mirugandu conducted a fire ritual on Bharani nakshatra day and formed this sacred fire of Bharani Arani. The ashes of this fire, along with the silk clothes of the King were presented to Sri Agneeswarar at this sacred shrine. It is said that if a fire ritual is performed on Bharani star day, with the grace of the guru, benefic effects will manifest a thousand fold. This will invoke the divine blessings of Goddess Lakshmi.

People born under all stars would gain the maximum benefits of wealth and power by conducting a fire ritual here on the Bharani star day, but Bharani natives in particular, could ignite their capacity to rule.
