The True Reason “not All Men” Sounds Absurd To Me (aside From The Ignorance Of Statistics) Is That

Mars nakshatras are very sensitive to having energy projected onto them. They do NOT like a beg and are very quick to view someone as desperate/weird.

Not necessarily avoidants because they can chase others or act desperate themselves but as soon as it comes towards them from a source outside their personal bubble, they can be repulsed very quickly. Even if it’s not from a place of judgement, they definitely get overwhelmed.

I’ve known many instances where they’ve ended relationships over the other person being too clingy or affectionate, but that as a specific example is kind of dependent on what kind of person they attract and other planet influences.

I’ve mainly observed this personally but the main celeb instance of this is Chappell Roan (Chitra asc). Just to be clear- I think the way people feel entitled to violate celebrities’ privacy is fucking weird and she has every right to be upset (ppl literally stalked her family!!). But from an observational perspective, the negative reaction she had after people suddenly started perceiving and projecting energy onto her en masse, especially in comparison to other celebrities, was definitely more prominent.

You could tell she was very overwhelmed and even wanted to do less in order to avoid the spotlight. Meanwhile someone with stronger (just a random example) rahu influence would chase the high of attention and maybe suffer to a lesser extent in this kind of situation

Going back to speaking generally, they usually thrive in relationships with people who are laidback and independent on some level. Maybe a little aloof but still being emotionally present

I saw someone bring up recently in a post (if that was you, I’m sorry I can’t remember 😭I’ll link if I see it again) the whole mars men x older women dynamic and how they like someone with a stronger sense of self that won’t rely on them as much. They don’t like the idea of being a provider for someone needy who relies on them to emotionally regulate.

Mars nak natives when you need them a little too much:

Dead bodies that walk in the night, living bodies suddenly possessed by new owners and deadly aspirations, bodies without sensible form, and a body of unnatural laws in accordance with which tortures and executions are meted out — some examples of the logic of supernatural horror. It is a logic founded on fear, a logic whose sole principle states: "Existence equals nightmare." Unless life is a dream, nothing makes sense. For as a reality, it is a rank failure.

Thomas Ligotti, Songs of a Dead Dreamer

be indifferent. accepting and assuming what you desire is boredom. if you feel irritated or bored or annoyed with robotic affirming congratulations you just fully assumed your desire. now persist in that feeling of acceptance and boredom and the 3d will confirm.

Vedic astrology observations

Part 7

Feminine archetype and appearance focused

Preface

In general, yoni animals of big three(especially moon's) nakshatras play a huge role in how a person looks and what they embody. Two people who share one or more yoni animals in big three might look similar, even if all the nakshatras are different. Also, for example, if someone has Uttara Phalguni in big three, and another person has Krittika or Uttara Ashadha(other two sun nakshatras) and Uttara Bhadrapada(U.Phalguni's yoni match), then they will likely have similar appearances and nature too. Both of have them have a Sun nakshatra and a Cow yoni nakshatra in big three. This is one of the interesting ways to look at the bigger picture while interpreting.

Bharani girls/women look divine in high fantasy/period(especially medieval)/mythical inspired looks. Long hair, headbands/diadems, low contrast/ethereal coloring, dresses that show the body/skin but don't hug it tightly, flowy fabrics. Unique pieces in general are best for them. They should avoid modern trends that are too constricting and structured. Their faces tend to have a unique beauty too so they should think outside of what's generic to see their own true essence. Also, their eyes are usually the best part of their face, they have a look of anticipation, innocence and fire in them. Makeup should be serving that beauty of their eyes, and their lips have a unique shape too, the sides of it are pulled downwards, but they're rarely too thick. Too much makeup in general is detrimental to them. They should not be afraid to appear delicate. Everything about how Bharani women should be styled must be focused on embracing and nurturing their natural beauty. They really should not try too hard. Looks should fit the person, not the other way around, that is true for everyone but especially for Bharani girls/women.

Pushya, Uttara Phalguni, Uttara Bhadrapada, Revati(?), Krittika, Rohini and Mrigashira might feel good/look good in a "milkmaid" look/aesthetic. What's interesting is that all of these nakshatras are associated with cows. The first three nakshatras listed might embody that aesthetic more. One of Pushya's symbols is the cow udder, so is Revati's. Pushya's fully in Cancer, and has associations with milk and nurturing. Saturn has associations with agriculture. Uttara Bhadrapada is another Saturn ruled nakshatra and its yoni animal is the cow, although it might lean towards more etheral looks than the sheep/goat yoni Pushya, due to it being in Pisces. Uttara Phalguni's milkmaid look might be more earthy. Mrigashira and Rohini can sometimes wear this look, due to them being in Taurus. Three fourths of Krittika is also in Taurus, and it's another goat/sheep yoni nakshatra that has associations with nurturing, but not as much as Pushya.

^^ To expand on the Cow yonis from above, they look really good with braids(so does Mrigashira but for different reasons). Cow yonis should lean into "traditional",natural clothing. That really allows them to show their femininity. They look really good with their hair down and with clothes that are comfortable. Like, they might look the best with a hoodie or a simple jacket and slightly discheveled hair. Big ballgowns also look amazing on them, as well as regal attire. They also might wear/incorporate elements that has personal significance to them, usually in relation to their close loved ones/family/community, a family heirloom or something that shows where their loyalty lies. (Please tell me this makes sense)

Cat yonis usually have medium to high contrast coloring, especially Ashlesha. Eyeliner looks divine on them, so does lipstick, usually with a rich red or pink color. Punarvasu might look ethereal and perfect in softer shades though too. They're the ones from the two more likely to have low constrast in coloring. I'd say if Punarvasu is light pink, Ashlesha is red. Punarvasus also have mixed/warmer tones than Ashlesha. They both might look good in Silver but Punarvasus should also try wearing gold(Jupiter's color). Punarvasu might look amazing with no lipstick at all too, but lip gloss or moisturizer is still desirable. They both also usually have really nice skin. If not, taking care of its health might really transform their appearance. Lastly, I think these two nakshatras look better if they feel a certain sense of control over their lives😅😭 hear me out. Like how Cats usually bathe themselves(but still smell nice???😭) and have a private, sort of weird and adorable "self-care" routine, these women approach everything in a careful, gradual but determined way, and I think that they need to settle into certain ways of taking care of presenting themselves. They need to feel a sense of safety and assuredenss in it on some level. They need to feel neat and tidy.

Rat yonis on the other hand have low to medium contrast. Purva Phalguni might have lower constrast than Magha. They look best in gold rather than silver. Purva Phalguni is one of the nakshatras that can benefit from having and sticking to staple looks/pieces, so they should not be afraid to do that. Similar to Bharani, they should avoid excess makeup too, but if they truly enjoy something, no matter how camp it seems, then they should go for it, with some discernment. Overly controlled looks are also not the best for them. Maghas usually have bold/noticable hair and they should lean into it. Usually these people don't fuss about appearance in details, but rather go for big statement pieces, like a big gold bracelet or chuncky earrings.

Tiger yonis, unlike cow yonis, will benefit from trends/structured and modern looks. Chitra especially is the nakshatra that likes to fit into certain aesthetics, but I'd advise them to avoid natural looking clothes that fit Cow yonis so well. Instead they should go for tight tops, shorts, tighter dresses, punk rock, fitted garments. If Cow yonis look good in big ballgowns, Tiger Yonis should go for formal dresses that are not flared but still look classic. Vishkhas should wear smudged eyeliner(my opinion lol). A little intensity and fierceness looks really good on Vishakhas but they should avoid excess otherwise like plague. Chitras might have a liscence to overaccessorize sometimes but Vishakhas do not. Also, Chitras can lean into softer/coquettish aesthetics but Vishakhas should aim for something more simple but intense and fierce, and they should not be afraid to mix feminine and masculine elements.

Jyeshta women have a very specific look. Their eyes are rich and intense, usually brows and eyelashes help with the intensity. These women might look really good with earrings, especially round-shaped ones, or a round necklace, given that Jyeshta's symbol is a round talisman. Their eyes are deep and piercing, but not really sharp, their shape could be soft. They could also have doe eyes but the ones that have intelligence, wisdom and worldly depth reflected in them. Dark hair flatters these women a lot, especially if they have Jyeshta moon or ascendant, but that's not a rule. Overall their look is intense, mercurial but regal. Their image should showcase their integrity. Any clothing that seems a little too frivolous or childish is not for them. They could find that they enjoy wearing quality but comfortable pieces that look simple. They can definitely play around with style though, given that they're a Mercury nakshatra, and can look good in something more "excessive". However, I've noticed that, even then, Jyeshta women still prioritize minimalism on some level. If they wear something more "out there" it must be once in a while, just to symbolically display their power. A lot of the times their most excessive outfits are not that excessive to others.

Punarvasu might be another nakshatra that makes its female natives look good in longer dresses. It's a very feminine nakshatra, despite being ruled by a masculine planet. Generally, cat yonis have distinctive faces. Punarvasu, being the soft one out of those two nakshatras, as well as having connection to spirituality and "godhood", influences appearance in a very unique way. These women might benefit from wearing long, soft, flowly garments that cover the body, maybe even a cape or a veil pulled backwards, but the face should be visible. It gives a "divine", "goddess-like", supernatural element to their appearance, which is true to their essence.

Vanar yonis are another pair of nakshatras that are more ethereal looking. They should avoid compact/structured garments and should not be afraid to wear anything oversized, within reason. Shravanas generally tend to be a little longer and slimmer, due to it being in the Saturn-ruled Capricorn, but they don't have the Venusian fierce, Aphrodite look that Purva Ashadhas have. Instead, they're smoother and colder, almost too subdued/neutral than their yoni consorts. Purva Ashadhas can have a more robust bone structure and look "healthier", but their etheriality can have an "earthly"/material element to it unlike Shravana, if that makes sense. This is also the yoni type that can get away with wearing anything weird: the type of choices that make you scratch you head and think "why would anyone go for this" but they somehow look fine and sometimes even good on them. This applies to Shravanas more. Quirky makes them look and feel good. Vanar means "being from other dimensions". According to vedic, they live in forests. Their yoni animal is literally not an actual common "animal" as most think of them, although "Vanar" has been interpreted as "Monkey". It's not inaccurate exactly, since these natives usually do have slightly protruding ears(like elephant yonis) but I think tossing out the origin of the word leaves out an important association.

Saturn Atmakaraka: Finding Light on the Path of Karma

"Saturn , has a tall and thin body, has yellow eyes and is airy (vata) in constituition; he has large teeth, is lazy and has coarse hair." Parashari 3.28-29

In Vedic astrology, the concept of AtmaKaraka is one of the most profound and revealing in the natal chart. The atmaKaraka, also known as the “soul indicator”, is the planet that bears the greatest responsibility for the individual’s spiritual journey. It represents the greatest challenges, lessons and the path that the soul must take in this life to achieve growth and fulfillment. The planet with the highest degree in any sign becomes the AtmaKaraka, “the significator of self” or “self-indicator”. This, as the lord of the Ascendant, can become the most powerful planet in your chart. It is the most important planet to consider when judging an individual’s spiritual nature, particularly in relation to its position in the ninth harmonic chart (navamsha). He provides us with a key to the aspirations of the soul. We often consider its position, such as the Ascendant, and read the chart indications accordingly.

This planet not only guides the purpose of life, but also indicates internal obstacles that a person needs to overcome to find their true identity. The AtmaKaraka position shows how we deal with our weaknesses, how we develop spiritually and where we should invest energy to evolve. The Atmakaraka carries the most important karmic lessons for this incarnation, becoming a key to understanding destiny and the soul’s inner motivations. Although there are many other important points in the birth chart, the Atma is special because it is a direct representation of the qualities that our soul has already mastered in past lives and those that still need to be worked on. Depending on which planet occupies this position, the nature of these lessons varies profoundly. AK influences how we approach challenges in different areas of life, right down to our spiritual worldview.

Saturn is traditionally the most difficult of the major planets, the legendary king of the malefics, that's why Saturn Atmakaraka is the most challenging. He often faces challenges in life, especially in the areas of work, health and relationships. Saturn is the significator of life itself. It indicates fate, term of life, longevity. A strong Saturn protects the life. Saturn is the planet to be propitiated in old age. He indicates the regime necessary for full life and longevity, violating which we suffer from premature decay and death. Though Saturn possesses a higher and more beneficent side, at least from the standpoint of the spiritual life, even this is stern and exacting, hard to live up to and to endure, a power of discipline, asceticism and solitude.

Saturn brings limitation and obstruction, hindrance in self-expression and in self-manifestation, which may become oppression and adversity. He is also known for being the God of Death, while Jupiter is a kind God. As Jupiter is the God of joy, he is the God of sorrow. Saturn is the significator of disease, old age and death; the great enemies of human life, which overcome all life bound by time. Therefore, the placement of Saturn in Atmakaraka is the ultimate issue of our life and destiny, the hard facts or the harsh reality that we must face. Because Saturn in the Atmakaraka indicates that the person may feel that his or her life is too tied to issues of responsibility, the need to make sacrifices or deal with pain and suffering in a constructive way. Here, destiny does not present itself easily or immediately, but is forged with perseverance, patience and facing the harshness of reality. For those with Saturn Atmakaraka, reality may seem harsher and so they may become depressed in the face of it. They refuse to give in to destruction but destruction is the necessary counterpart for creation, as is decay and death required for new life and growth.

Saturn gives bad luck, misfortune, difficult karma. It is the planet of bad karma or unhappy destiny. However, these may come upon a soul not because it has been bad or slow to evolve in past lives. Some souls, particularly those who are more advanced, may seek such things as a means of faster and deeper spiritual growth in life. Anyone can turn to the Divine in prosperity, but who can do so in great adversity? Such is the measure of a great soul. Saturn is also the suffering that makes us grow inwardly.

The influence of Saturn is to delay, to hold back. As the slowest of the planets, he slows things down, holds back their development. Those retarded in mind or speech are often under the strong affliction of Saturn. He makes us deaf and blind, stunted or deformed.

Saturn is the significator of old age, the God of time, who brings on all the degenerative processes of aging, the failure of our faculties and our powers. To the such a badly placed Saturn causes premature aging. Saturn takes away our vitality, on a physical or on a mental level. He causes depression, melancholy, self-pity and gives rise to worry, fear and anxiety. As a nervous planet, Saturn obstructs nerve functioning. He may cause numbness, paralysis or degenerative neurological disorders. His obstructing and repressing influence on the mind may promote neurosis or insanity. Saturn is behind most diseases, particularly chronic, degenerative diseases, diseases of old age, including arthritis and Cancer. As representing decay he can cause an accumulation of waste materials in the body and often is a point of devitalization in the chart.

As the planet of the ego, Saturn is also the planet of fear, on which the ego is based. Saturn creates fear and darkness in the mind. It makes us feel that we cannot overcome things, that life is against us. It makes us doubt ourselves, doubt even the Divine, and makes us prey to dark fears, fantasies, and phobias.

Saturn Devouring His Son is a painting by Spanish artist Francisco Goya. It is traditionally considered a depiction of the Greek myth of the Titan Cronus, whom the Romans called Saturn, eating one of his children out of fear of a prophecy by Gaea that one of his children would overthrow him.

Saturn is the God who eats his own children, who devours his own progeny. He raises people up, but eventually brings them down in a very precipitous fall. Those who are under the spell of their basic values ​​will eventually be destroyed by them. He shows falsehood for what it is, in which there is the revelation of the enduring value of truth.

Saturn is not only in many ways the lowest of the planets, it is also the highest. Its lesson is the most difficult, but the most rewarding. Saturn is the grandfather spirit and lawgiver, our guiding ancestor. He represents not only the negative influence of the past that constrains us, he represents the positive spirit of the past that brings order and consistency to our lives. Saturn in Hindu mythology is the son of the Sun. The Sun moves in a chariot driven by Saturn. Saturn is the darkness, death and sadness that we must overcome for the revelation of the true light. He is the guardian of the mysteries of truth - which is possible only through a very precise and demanding cultivation of attention. Saturn is the yogi in meditation. He can give complete detachment and independence. He is the one who stands alone and goes beyond the limitations of the masses. It shows the path of transcendence, though necessarily difficult, by which all limitations can be overcome by resorting to our true and unlimited Self. In this respect, the power of Shiva, the lord of the yogis, the god of death and transcendence, can work through Saturn.

Saturn in the Atmakaraka places the individual on a path of self-improvement, where life experiences often involve long periods of effort without immediate rewards. The soul, in this case, seeks fulfillment that can only be achieved through discipline and acceptance of limitations, whether in relation to external issues (such as social responsibility, work and professional life) or internal issues (such as overcoming fears, insecurities and deep psychological issues).

Saturn here forces the person to face reality as it is, without illusions or escapes, leading the soul to mature and become more aware of the responsibilities it carries, whether in terms of individual karma or in relation to the collective. Life may seem like a constant search for stability, security and structure, but at the same time, Saturn demands patience to accept that the fruits of this search will not come immediately. Therefore, Saturn in the Atmakaraka is a position that brings depth and intensity to the spiritual and personal journey, challenging the individual to find greater meaning through experiencing the harshness of life, while working tirelessly to build something lasting, grounded and realistic.

Venus Dominant Themes — 𝐍𝐚𝐤𝐬𝐡𝐚𝐭𝐫𝐚 𝐎𝐛𝐬𝐞𝐫𝐯𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐒𝐞𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐬 (part 2) 𝐨𝐟 𝐩𝐚𝐫𝐭 𝟒

warning⚠️: violent imagery & details, femicide, mentions of cannibalism and rape.

Venus exalting in Pisces signifies Venus' desire of indulgence & excess, as Pisces represents what is extremely vast, otherworldly and boundless, as its ruler, Jupiter, expands whatever it touches — this allowing Venus to be completely unrestrained (to the point of vampirism, even). It's very ironic that Venus nakshatras can express this nature as well, being that they're often associated with exclusivity, restriction and high standards. But then again, it is the attainment of godliness or worthiness that opens these boundless vampiric themes in the first place, which I will be shortly exploring. So, it won't come as a surprise that Venus nakshatras are seen heavily dominating the most violent or cannibalistic films I could find.

The 12th house is symbolic of transcendence and high powers, further amplifying this planet's desire to merge with something beyond the physical, this realization often leading to a kind of violent indulgence or sense of superiority to the point of total corruption.

This very consuming nature of Venus, where one's soul rots from their excess and indulgence, can be seen in the novel The Picture of Dorian Gray, written by Purva Phalguni ASC native Oscar Wilde.

The consequence of hedonism is what Oscar Wilde explores, as we follow the main character of the story who wishes to remain young & beautiful forever, while the portrait of him ages. And as he indulges in a life of excess and debauchery, he soon discovers that the portrait manifests his true moral decay. With Venus nakshatras, you'll see this play of beauty, innocence & youth alongside darkness, corruption & evil.

This particular concept of transformative hidden evils and the corruption of innocence beyond human control can also be studied in The Omen movies, where a young innocent boy, usually by the name Damien, turns out to be the Antichrist. Just like how Dorian Gray is the source of loss and corruption, despite his outer beauty, Damien's presence, though an innocent child, causes chaos and death, reinforcing themes of predestination and the inescapable power of evil.

The Omen (1976); Bharani Moon native Harvey Spencer Stephens as the Antichrist, Omen III: The Final Conflict (1981); Purva Phalguni Moon native Sam Neill as the Antichrist, The Omen (2006); Bharani Moon native Seamus Davey-Fitzpatrick as the Antichrist, 666: The Child (2006); Bharani Moon native Booboo Stewart as the Antichrist.

Bharani nakshatra, ruled by Lord Yama, embodies cosmic law and necessary destruction through karmic balance. The birth of the Antichrist is significant and inevitable. In these films, the child is literally divinely protected, as anyone who tries to kill him is immediately eliminated by unseen forces. Bharani represents the womb and the tomb, the character embodying this paradox as his birth brings death to humanity's faith — marking the end of innocence and the beginning of darkness & corruption. The Antichrist is literally meant to bring hell on earth, the fires to come merely a symbol of purification instead of senseless chaos.

The ones who wield evil, or a predatory kind of power, such as the character Jennifer in the movie Jennifer's Body, can be viewed as symbols of purging flames. After all, all three Venus nakshatras are Ugra nakshatras. The movie plays with the idea that being a corrupted, or “monstrous”, force can make one the instrument of judgment. So, Jennifer's selective killing essentially reflects the discriminatory nature of Venus.

Jennifer Check, played by Purva Ashada ASC Megan Fox, transformed into a predatory creature of a higher power and purpose, being a necessary evil who takes out the weak, the unworthy, and the opposing predatory force — males, who symbolize entitlement, exploitation, and agents of femicide. The Venusian is simply a force of reckoning, behind all of her beauty and seduction. In my Venus Dominant Themes part 1 post, I talked about Venus nakshatras embodying an equalizing, or domineering force of retribution and judgement. Jennifer's Body is this theme at its peak, as she was murdered by the male force as an innocent, so therefore goes on to brutally kill the boys at her high school after becoming demonic — this making her an apex predator in a world where women are always at the bottom of the hierarchy. She now became the punisher, in a sense, as there is justification for her monstrosity.

Purva Ashada is associated with cleansing & purification, connecting to her killing sprees where she devours the impure to restore balance. Bharani represents karmic retribution, acting as an agent of vengeance and justice. Purva Phalguni, on the other hand, represents pleasure, indulgence and beauty leading to one's downfall, as explored in the novel The Picture of Dorian Gray, and the journey in overcoming such temptations.

This is why Purva Phalguni needs Magha, or a strong Ketu force, to balance out its excess and chaotic compulsions. In Jennifer's Body, the main pairing is Ketu x Venus, where Needy is embodying Ketu's reducing force, as she is the only one to eliminate her demonic best friend. I already spoke of Ketu nakshatras being forces of destruction in order to reduce and drain, and Venus nakshatras overlap in this theme of vampirism as well, but they're also boundless and compulsive, which explains this nakshatra lord pairing.

Also, I talked about the compulsive eating and consuming nature in Bharani nakshatra through the character Dre in the series Swarm. There's a scene where Jennifer compulsively eats to satisfy her predatory urges, as her body is in a heat of transformation. Purva Ashada is also influenced by the Pitta dosha (which explains the presence of Venus nakshatras in cannibalistic movies).

Damien, from The Omen, is also another necessary evil, embodying a correction of the existing order. He is merely fulfilling a greater purpose beyond individual morality.

Purva Ashada Sun Seamus Davey-Fitzpatrick as Damien.

Like the religious doctrines say, the Antichrist is simply the precursor to the Second Coming, being the reason of a shift where the weak, the unworthy, and the sinners are removed (as, in Purva Ashada, it is the stage of cleansing and washing, however violent and chaotic this purification process goes).

The monstrous-feminine is a genre that is associated with Venus nakshatras, highlighting monstrosity being shaped inside the feminine which expresses rage & desire through themes such as violence, body horror and mortality. This concept essentially rejects traditional femininity, as it symbolizes a consuming power which cannot be contained.

In the movies Ginger Snaps, also starring a Purva Ashada native playing an apex predator, and Jennifer’s Body, the monstrous-feminine takes the form of godly transformation and insatiable hunger.

The character, Ginger, has an important transformation to werewolfism, mirroring the awkwardness in puberty and the intensifying sexual awakening. But much like Jennifer Check, this transformation represents an animalistic, bloodthirsty rage, along with sexual empowerment & female autonomy — making them the ones who sit right on top of the food chain.

Notice Ginger's bird skull necklace. Venus nakshatra characters, who represent a primal force, often decorate themselves with animal jewelries, to further signify this theme of being “king of the jungle”. This aspect of being apex predators relates a lot to hunting, too.

So usually, with these characters being bloodthirsty demons, there's a loss of control, as intense compulsions take over them when they dive more into the violence, which turns them into lethal predators who hunt for sport.

Bharani, Purva Phalguni, Purva Ashada are constellations which are said to be favourable for activities that require violence, force, weapons, confronting enemies, demolishing structures, setting fires, capturing others with force etc. These nakshatras are good for hunting and committing acts of brutality.

Purva Phalguni Sun, ASC Keanu Reeves plays John Wick who is a legendary hitman known as "Baba Yaga". Baba Yaga is a fearsome role in folklore who is an elderly deformed woman living in a hut surrounded by a fence made of human bones or skulls, this title that he has earned in the criminal underworld signifying him as a “king of the jungle” archetype. John Wick is characterized by his ruthless pursuit of vengeance and exceptional killing skills, making him good at hunting other humans to bring them to punishment.

Kraven the Hunter is portrayed by Purva Phalguni ASC native Aaron Taylor Johnson, who is a big-game hunter of people who are criminals, smugglers, mobsters and mercenaries.

Notice the animal claw necklace, signifying his animalistic dominance, just like with Ginger's necklace signifying her predatory power.

Now, the masculine expression of the monstrosity genre through Purva Ashada immediately puts the character Tighten, from the animation Megamind, to mind.

Purva Ashada ASC Jonah Hill voices Tighten, who reflects a fragile, toxic masculinity after attaining higher powers. He possesses brute force, while having extreme rage issues from his sense of entitlement & inability to handle rejection.

Tighten believes he is superior, but due to his immaturity, he's unable to actually wield his power to conquer — as some of these Venusians often do when they put themselves on top of the whole food chain.

Superiority means the exclusivity of others, and Venus naturally represents exclusivity in multiple ways. This also manifests into the hatred or discarding of others when this superiority means to reign dominion.

Although I briefly typed Chris Hemsworth as an Uttara Phalguni Moon native in my Sun Dominant Themes exploration, I do believe he could still possibly be a Purva Phalguni Moon native, as he plays the character Thor, who can summon Mjolnir because he is worthy to, as those who are worthy can be the only ones to. You see this theme of godliness, worthiness, superiority being repeatedly played through these Venus nakshatras, but especially through Purva Phalguni & Purva Ashada, as these are nakshatras which test the ones walking their journey.

Even Natalie Portman, who has Purva Phalguni Moon, becomes Lady Thor, and is one of the exclusive few deemed worthy & superior enough to lift & summon Mjolnir!

But back to superior, non-heroic characters.

Sephiroth from Final Fantasy has been voiced by Bharani Sun native Lance Bass, Purva Ashada Sun native George Newbern, and recently Purva Phalguni Sun & Bharani Moon native Tyler Hoechlin. He is literally driven by a belief in his own superiority and exceptionalism, seeing himself as the rightful ruler of humanity, believing that he is destined to bring about a new world order. Not only does he want to become god, but he seeks to also punish humans as well for vengeance.

As much as Venusians make great supervillains who seek to conquer through dominance, this general theme of their superiority/godliness extends to characters who are written to be good and just. Like Superman, for example.

Often been depicted with strong messianic symbolism, Superman is a superior figure who constantly sacrifices himself for the greater good of humanity, embodying the idea of a benevolent saviour who came from the heavens, not of human but for humanity — being portrayed, usually, as beyond human flaws.

General Zod is one of Superman's most formidable foes, if not the most, as he possesses powers which can level Superman's, making him beyond dangerous once he sets foot on Earth.

Zod is depicted as a ruthless and imposing leader, capable of inspiring both fear & loyalty in his followers, being the superior creature he is. Another thing of superiority is that it causes fear and mass obedience. General Zod is portrayed by Purva Phalguni ASC native Michael Shannon in Man of Steel.

Omni-Man is another character that can level Superman on a power level, although he's from another comic universe altogether. Like Superman, Omni-Man is an extraterrestrial being who possesses godlike strength, flight, and invincibility. He is voiced by Purva Ashada Sun native J. K. Simmons. But unlike Superman, who represents a benevolent god, Omni-Man represents a tyrannical god, wanting to reign dominion rather than co-existing with humanity.

Typical of this discriminatory god-like archetype, he sees humans as weak and expendable, his fatherhood being defined by wanting his son to abandon humanity altogether — as he believes that strength determines worth, justifying his brutality, cruelty and genocidal tendencies.

The pursuit or attainment of godliness inevitably leads to the devaluation of humanity itself, as seen through the Purva Ashada character Omni-Man. His belief that superiority requires shedding humanity and sameness altogether creates a chilling detachment which justifies the brutality and oppression of those deemed insignificant. Being of a species known for god-like superpowers, he prides himself in the very traits that make him dangerous, his massacres and destruction simply a demonstration of dominance. A reminder of how vampiric and gothic the Venus nakshatras can be, on a massive scale, Omni-Man exemplifies how godliness, often defined by superiority from the Venus rulership, ultimately leads to the dehumanization and brutalization of others.

In part 1 of this Venus nakshatra series, I talked about the act of brutality, especially through the feminine, often being provoked in the first place, the feminine being an agent of swift vengeance against their rapists or abusers. But it seems that the act of brutality itself is an appreciated form of art for the masculine, through these Venus nakshatras, especially brutality inflicted on the female body. In these movies, especially from their posters alone, you'll see how Venus men are very particular about women being the subject their torture p*rn.

For example, Martyrs (2008), is a torture p*rn meant to bring pleasure from its excessive, excruciating displays of pain. The grueling, nonstop butchery is thoroughly explored in a long 99 minute runtime which will likely scar viewers for life. This movie was made & directed by the Purva Phalguni Moon native Pascal Laugier. The most violent scene in it is the female protagonist being flayed alive. Notice the poster showing the brutalization of the female form.

On the right is the poster for the torture p*rn movie, The Curse of Doctor Wolffenstein (2015), clearly displaying the victimization of a female. The movie is about a devilish doctor whose limbs rot from drinking a portion that turned him immortal, so he recklessly goes mutilating and murdering villagers to harvest their limbs. Nothing and no one will be safe from him even years after his resurrection. Bharani Sun native Marc Rohnstock created & directed this gore-fest.

Faces of Death (1978) stars Bharani Moon Michael Carr, playing Dr. Francis B. Gröss, who shows a collection of the most gruesome deaths around the world. As the poster says, it has been banned in 46 countries, and it is considered to be one of the most shocking documentaries ever.

Cannibal Holocaust (1980), directed by Bharani Sun director Ruggero Deodato, is banned and heavily censored throughout the world. It is a found footage about a group of filmmakers who experience brutal deaths at the hands of a flesh-eating South American tribe. Another poster of this movie has a woman as the subject of grueling torture (bottom, right).

Bharani Moon native Umberto Lenzi created & directed the cannibalistic torture p*rn movies, Cannibal Ferox and Mangiati Vivi! (Eaten Alive). This discriminatory displays of torture or “punishment” against women in these posters and the excessive violence against women in these horrific visuals, created by Bharani men, makes an indirect connection to Lord Yama, the overseer of the most brutal tortures known to hell, reflecting this nakshatra’s interplay of sexuality, pain, pleasure and even deviancy, but expressed in very discriminatory ways.

Natural Born Killers (1994), directed by Bharani Moon William Oliver Stone, is about two lovers who go on a murder spree, killing more than 50 people. The story is written by Bharani Moon native Quentin Tarantino. The violence in the movie is used abundantly, and liberally, in the form of graphic murder, beatings, and torture. Bharani Moon native Rob Zombie is a slasher/horror filmmaker whose made many violent, satanic movies such as The Lords of Salem, 3 from Hell, The Devil's Rejects etc. He made movies such as 31 and House of 1000 Corpses which are about surviving against homicidal maniacs and serial killers, which display moments of mayhem, violence and mental torture. Literally as if one is trapped in hell trying to make it out of the parade of maniacal demons, a kind of atmosphere that a Bharani native would be exhilarated to artistically reenact.

Though not Bharani, Purva Phalguni ASC native Aaron Taylor Johnson portrayed a perverted nightmarish character, in Nocturnal Animals, who reigned terror over an innocent family with his gang of degenerates one night, similar to the plot in House of 1000 Corpses in which a couple finds themselves in terror in a home of serial killers.

spoilers!: him, and his gang, brutally rape and murder the wife and daughter, leaving the male unharmed but no doubt traumatized.

Hell is filled with demonic executioners, servants of the Devil, demons, who are agents of torture relishing in misery, turning the torments into parades of cruelty where victims are displayed, mocked, and tormented in front of other suffering souls to intensify their dread. There are different kinds of demons in Naraka (hell), such as the flesh-eaters or those who force sinners to relive their crimes through hallucinations. Not the least bit surprising that Venus nakshatras may also embody such evil, barbaric and even illusory beings.

In Avengers: Age of Ultron (2015), the character Scarlet Witch, played by Purva Phalguni ASC native Elizabeth Olsen, was first introduced as a mysterious villain, operating like a demonic agent of chaos, as she puts every Avenger under a spell where they hallucinate their dreadful past or future. There is an obvious relation to black magic with these nakshatras.

Purva Phalguni, being ruled by Bhaga, the god of pleasure and fortune, makes it associated with sensual indulgence, luxury, and excess. The intoxication of pleasure, the escapism into ecstasy which, taken into extremes, can descend into corruption & decadence, highlights Satanic or Luciferian philosophies which emphasize unrestricted desire.

Satanism is about rejecting imposed morality in favour of self-exploration and personal power, both connecting to self-gratification and may even lead to greed. So this nakshatra carries this exact energy, as it defies rules to revel in what the world deems sinful. Gluttony, desire, pride, lust, greed etc.

Even some depictions of hell aren't solely about burning in eternal fire and damnation, but literally being trapped in a never-ending, grotesque cycle of pleasure and consumption which winds up turning into torture itself. This reflects Purva Phalguni’s ability to push indulgence beyond joy, into addiction, self-destruction and pain (as better explored in the novel The Picture of Dorian Gray).

Devil’s Advocate (1997) is a movie which mirrors this shadow side of Purva Phalguni, strongly showcasing excessive pleasure, indulgence, vanity, and the seductive nature of power. It is directed by the Purva Ashada Sun native Taylor Hackford, and it stars Purva Phalguni Sun & ASC native Keanu Reeves, alongside Purva Phalguni ASC native Charlize Theron, who is tempted into sin by the Devil himself, who turns out to be his father.

Keanu Reeves' character basically overcomes these shadow aspects of this nakshatra, rejecting power and temptation to instead embrace integrity, free will and moral responsibilities. This directly reflects the Sun rulership over this nakshatra, which is what it should all come down to. Purva Phalguni is a journey where one's self-control is tested when gifts of true power and opportunities of indulgence come along. Keanu Reeves' character in Devil's Advocate symbolizes the higher, dharmic qualities of the nakshatra. By the end of the movie, unlike Dorian Gray will ever, he chooses real love over false abundance. The native was meant to be challenged in controlling their urges. Being a royal nakshatra, and of solar nature, it thrives on dignity and honour, rather than manipulation and control, as the trap of vanity and self-obsession is supposed to be overcome in this cycle. In my Ketu Dominant Themes part 2 post, I talked about the possible case of self-obsession/self-indulgence in Ketu nakshatras. This gives even more perspective on how Venus nakshatras are supposed to transcend from where the passively-consuming-Ketu-nakshatras left of.

But it's very interesting that in Hindu and Buddist traditions, hell itself is not an eternal punishment of the fallen, but it is rather the place of cleansing the impure and ungodly. The brutal, immense punishments exist to purify the souls of the corrupt before their rebirth, these tortures assisted by Lord Yama's fierce yamadutas and demons. So this concept can be seen in the duality in the Venus nakshatras, which manifest in the specific way of compulsivity vs self-punishment, falling into pleasure vs liberation, indulgence vs self-restraint (and how one implements high standards for oneself to transcend). Venus, also known as Shukra, was the guru of the Asuras (demons), teaching them how rise, despite being cast aside by divine forces, by giving them knowledge on how to even challenge the gods, highlighting the potential of purification but also of liberation.
