Purva Ashada (aslo written as Poorvashada) energy gives us the freedom, fearlessness, and courage to follow our joy in the moment in an extravagant and unique way. In fact, it makes us feel invincible. This energy has the power to invigorate, renew, replenish. Here we get caught up in the excitement of the moment with little or no thought of past or future giving us a “just do it” attitude. It is associated with water, so it is an excellent energy to invoke while engaged in diving, sailing, surfing, etc, or going on a long boating trip. Just spending time on the beach or by the river helps to invoke Purva Ashada’s influence.

In a spiritual sense, this is a cleansing energy. It gives a daily renewal and rejuvenation when we follow a spiritual practice. Strong faith and spiritual wisdom are also indicated by Purva Ashada.

This is a fierce, severe and Rajasic (action-oriented) energy. Under this influence we like to surround our selves with an air of mystery to protect our freedom in any case, our unstoppable lust for adventure will make us quite unpredictable. Often, with our unique and daring optimism we will be an inspiration to those around us.

The final aim of this nakshatra is Moksha or spiritual liberation.

The 3 stars of Purva Ashada are Kaus Australis, Kaus Media and Kaus Borealis in the constellation of Sagittarius.
