Ardra Nakshatra in Astrology: Features, Padas, and Remedies

According to astrology, the Ardra Nakshatra indicates a person’s intellectual nature, passionate thinking side, sharp mind, search for the reasons behind events in the world, strong speaking abilities, lack of many close friends, confrontations with others, mastery of debates and arguments, ability to easily make enemies, ability to inflict emotional pain on others, and potential for rejection by society. One of the Urdhvamukhi Nakshatras in Vedic Astrology is the Ardra Nakshatra (or the Nakshatras, which have their mouths upwards). Palaces, coronations, boundary walls, and lofty structures can all be started or performed in these Nakshatras with good fortune.

Symbol: A Drop or a Bead

A tear or a drop is this Nakshatra’s omen. This is a sign of seminal fluid, which is what fertilisation is caused by.

Lord Rudhra is a deity

Rudhra is the god of the Ardra Nakshatra. Since Rudh means to cry, Rudhra’s definition is “one who makes tears.” Brahma is the god for Rohini, and Rudhra is the god for Ardra. The three main agents of creation are Brahma, Vishnu, and Rudhra. You might be curious as to why Rudhra followed Brahma rather than Vishnu. This is as a result of the egg’s formation without fertilisation. This indicates that while creation and destruction took place, they were not sustained. Vishnu is a Shravana Nakshatra deity since the baby’s development is finished during this time.

Astrological characteristics of the Ardra Nakshatra

• A female dog or wolf is the Ardra Nakshatra’s animal. The most fascinating animal on the planet is a dog.
• It can be so in love with you that it would sacrifice its life for you, or it might bite and choke someone if they venture outside of its territory.
• They are emotional, dependent, and pack animals. When you leave for work, they feel abandoned since they always want to be with you.
• In packs of more than three dogs, usually in residential settings, there is an alpha dog.
• The elder dog, who may be the parent of the pack, is the only alpha in wolves; one will always take the position.
• Without a leader, they function as a team.
• It is very easy to convert these data into nakshatra. Extreme loyalty is required in both love and friendship by people of Ardra.
• They either become overly emotional or ferocious like wolves to defend their commitment to you since they do not want to feel abandoned by you or someone else.
• They will go to great lengths to prove their allegiance, even at the cost of their own life, but if you wrong them or someone they care about, they will attack you like a wolf or dog and consume your flesh.
• They are capricious, like an odd dog. You don’t sure if they’ll approach you amicably or try to bite you.
• Everyone is hence wary of approaching an Ardra native.
• Particularly when the influence of malefics is on the planet located in Ardra, Ardra natives will howl and scream like wolves when they are enraged, sad, or frustrated.
• Like the wolves in the thick forest, these folks are typically quiet and very private.
• Wolves make superb global hunters. The love of hunting that the people of Ardra have is also represented by their symbol “The Hunter”.
• They adore eating meat from wild animals like elk, venison, wild boar, alligator, and others. These natives’ ability to hunt also gives them superb night vision.
• When they like someone, these people go on the prowl and will stop at nothing to obtain their object of desire.
• Rudra is this Nakshatra’s deity. Shiva is an Aghori, a person who lives in cremation grounds and consumes meat as well as wild fruits and berries from the forest while remaining naked, constantly meditating, dealing with death and loving it.

• Shiva did all of it, yes. All the things are in Shiva Purana. Shiva is known as Bholenaath (the innocent one), he gives whatever you ask him.
• He is always in meditation and calm, but if you were to disturb him from his meditation, he will not only destroy you but has the capacity of destroying the entire Universe.
• Rudra (Shiva) is also one of the first medicine man from the Rig Veda.
• He is one of the best physicians of all times. He was making medicine himself and healing people under the name Vaidyanatha (Lord of remedies).
• Rudra is the embodiment of Shiva with armour along with bow & arrow, just like the Hunter of Orion.
• It’s said that one must worship Rudra in order to attain moksha.
• Rudra was created by multiple Gods to get to Brahma, who was chasing his daughter for procreation.
• Gods wanted something so powerful that could take Brahma down, and this is how Rudra was manifested.
• Ardra natives are exactly like Shiva.
• They are wild, unorthodox; they can go to the extreme of everything like extreme meditation, love, lust, anger, work, and emotions, just like how Shiva’s anger can destroy the whole Universe.

• They are usually calm people who are wild in a silly sense.
• They are very animated and can be boys of boys or girls amongst boys due to the muscle nature of this Nakshatra.
• A girl usually is a tomboy in youth.
• Once Shiva is disturbed from his calm mood or backstabbed, then they become Rudra and will destroy whatever is in front of them.
• They are the ones who can throw everything from their desk when angry.
• Ardra natives also make great physicians, and are related to pharmaceutical and Ayurveda professions.
• Career is determined by using the Dharma, Artha, Kama, Moksha technique.
• The symbolism of Ardra is a teardrop and a skull. The teardrop represents the drop of the storm.
• A storm will always start out with a few drops on your head, and before you know, you are in a flood of water.
• The drop is known as a “tear drop”, which is the teardrop of Shiva.
• In real life, Ardra must face storms of emotions where tears just come out.
• When they cry, they will cry a storm and usually, it can be over very small things.
• The cry is not normal; it’s a cry with a howl and scream.
• Out of all the Nakshatras, Ardra is the most emotional and with deep feelings, but the reason why they have such feelings is because the world is supposed to betray those feelings, so the water inside turns into a fierce storm.
• It’s in their karma to deal with tears; therefore, they make the best actors in front of a camera.
• When Ardra native reads a letter, email or text message from past, they can have a river of tears flowing out of them.

• The symbolism of the skull is the mystical and realistic side of Ardra.
• A skull is actually one of the best tools for an Aghori in the cremation ground.
• They use the skull for drinking wine. It may be sacrilegious for us, but we are too dumb to understand the scientist (Aghori) practising this science of nature.
• There is a logical purpose why an Aghori smears themselves with ashes and drink from skull or eat the flesh of the dead.
• The skull symbolism shows that Ardra is not afraid of death and is curious about the world of mysticism, occult, tantra, and magic rituals.
• Skull is also where the hair grows, and Ardra represents the hair of Shiva.
• The controller of this Nakshatra is Rahu. All three Nakshatras of Rahu, which are Ardra Nakshatra, Swati Nakshatra and Shatabhisha Nakshatra, will have a lot of similar themes to them compared to other Nakshatra being ruled by a single planet.
• Rahu is like Jupiter. All Rahu ruled Nakshatras love space, science fiction, astrophysics, the astral plane, fantasy and anything to do with the new-age technology.
• Even though Ardra is a medicine man, but these natives are attracted to future technology.
• Out of all the Nakshatras of Rahu, Ardra has the capacity to write a great science fiction book.
• All Ardra natives dive into the fantasy of what is the world, how the world works, and what else is out there in the ether besides this blue planet, Earth.

Attributes of Ardra Nakshatra in Astrology

• Ardra Nakshatra extends in Gemini (Mithun) from 6’40” to 20’00”.
• When Surya enters Ardra, the Earth is said to be starting its menstrual course, that is, Ambubachi.
• Ardra means wet or surcharged with water. Because the Earth is running her menstrual course, teardrops fall one after another.
• From Rudra comes all suffering, persecutions and oppressions, anger, the ferocity of countenance or hideousness of noise. Rudra is another name of Shiva, the five-faced (Panchanana) (Panchanana).
• In knowledge, asceticism, renunciation, and enjoyment, he is the supreme consummation of all desires. He is a blue-throated one, the wielder of the tremendous powers, what could not be attempted, far less achieved by other Gods.
• On one side, he symbolises the perfect placidity and peace; on the other hand, he is the symbol of all that is awful. He holds the enormous serpent on his head and forehead crescent Chandra with his sweet-soft light.
• At the same time, he is the most calm and the most terrifying. And in all these are to be traced the essential qualities of Ardra.
• Superficially, on the surface of it, Ardra stands for misery, harshness, cruelty, murder, incarceration, theft, adultery, etc.
• The root trait is oppression in order to purify. All male kidney issues, related urethral diseases and also uterine diseases of the ladies, come within the authority of Ardra.
