Magha is the 10th Lunar Sign, and occupies the start of Vedic Leo. It arises out of the sensitive and dangerous Gandanta Zone between the Vedic water sign of Cancer and the Vedic Fire sign of Leo.
Questions to Maghas: What are the gifts from the Pitri, your ancestors? What powers, qualities and abilities come from your past lives? What meaning and guidance do you find and create from both the positive and the negative in your heritage? How will you manifest the ancient gift of your heritage? It’s about applying your mind to the meaning of your personal and cultural heritage: whether genetic, mystical, archaeological, historical or racial, and finding meaning therefrom. Shape the present and the future by using the past.

The aim of this chart focus is to promote caring and authentic discussion and analysis. There is full information about each of the Nakshatras’ qualities and characteristics, plus a reading list, and there’s a video for each Nakshatra for you to review.
Natal study of the Nakshatras: So, what you do is you analyse the implications for each of the planets in our two charts in the light of the Nakshatras they occupy. What does this mean for our personality, for our life, for our destiny? How will it affect our emotional natures and consciousness arising therefrom? What steps can we take to heal and empower?
