Pushya Nakshatra
Brihaspati (Jupiter/Guru)
Pushya is considered the most auspicious nakshatra, ruled by the divine guru Brihaspati (Jupiter). The name means 'nourisher' - these natives have the gift of supporting others' growth. Like a cosmic flower, they bloom to nourish the world. Brihaspati is the guru of the devas, representing divine wisdom and right counsel. Pushya natives often become advisors, teachers, or spiritual guides. Their karma is to nurture dharma in others. The spiritual path involves developing Brihaspati's qualities: wisdom, generosity, protection of the good, and the ability to guide without ego. Thursday worship amplifies their connection to this divine energy.
