Bharani represents female sexual power required to create a new life,a new thought ,a new revolution.People born in this nakshatra have a great sense of expression to divinity.These people like to take away impurities of community and inner self and fill up with new ideas and thoughts.Bharani lies in aries sign from 13.20" to 26.40" aries.
2. DEITY,PLANETARY RULER AND RESPECTIVE ANIMAL : "Yama" is deity of this nakshatra who controls the death process. He is also known as "god of deaths" .Yama wears blood red color garments , crown on head, rides on a buffalo.He holds a club in one hand and noose(paash) in other hand to catch the soul of a person. This noose ties around the neck of the soul and yama drags the soul to "yampuri"( city of yama). His job is to take away the life and send the spirit through transformation process in order to teach the soul a lesson of life to become more productive and progress towards enlightnment. This nakshatra is represented by Elephant. Elephant is the symbol of power , authority, high social status. In older times , kings used to ride on elephants with all decorations to show their power .Even devas(gods) like INDRA, BRIHASPATI, GODDESS GAJA LAXMI used elephant as their vehicle.Elephants like vegetarian food , so as these natives possess satvik qualities in them.
Planetary ruler is venus . Venus is called perfection , life saver,devil guru. Venus is related to sexuality . These natives have desire to explore more sexual possibilities but their intention is more towards divine sexuality.If bharani people control their excessive emotions, they can prove to be very successfull person with balanced sexuality.
3. ZODIAC SIGN AND SYMBOLISM :Mars is ruler of Aries sign .Mars is all about Frisk, passion and action where as venus is inner sexuality. When these two planets work in good placement in chart,it can be an ideal situation of inner exploration of the soul, in other words , its like "beauty and beast".Where as if mars and venus in the birth chart are not in favourable position then it gives imbalanced sexual desires/lust.
This nakshatra represent "YONI" female sexual organ, which plays an important role in landing of a soul on this earth.Since this nakshatra rashi is Aries which represents "RAM" animal if we look at face of a ram , we see the rounded horns as falliopen tubes and skull as uterus of a female.This co relates with nature of bharani nakshatra.Yoni symbol is used world wide as a sign of transformation. In some cultures,people make a yoni shaped figure and pass the new born baby through it as a ritual of transformation of life.
4. PURANIC LEGEND : According to puranic story, "SURYA" (SUN GOD) had wife "SANJANA". Sanjana left surya as she couldn't bear the heat of surya. Sanjana made "CHAYA" as her replacement until she comes back. Surya had a son named "YAMA". from chaya, surya had three children,Saturn was one of them. Chaya gave step treatment to Yama due to which he felt bad and ignored. Yama tried to hit chaya with his foot but chaya cursed him that his foot will fell , since then yama has one foot broken. Surya found the chayas cruel behaviour and step treatment towards yama. Surya burnt down chaya in anger. Soon saturn found this injustice to his mother and he became enemy with his father.When ever saturn comes in 20 degree in Aries, it gets debiliated and creates tough situations to native.
With respect to this story, these natives often feel as if they are mistreated, step treated in their family. Some natives may have problem related to foot. Yama is related to the world of spirits/ghosts,malefic placement especially 12 th house involvement may cause native to see spirits/ghosts.In such cases , one should do shradh ceremony for his ancestors and feed crows.
