Uttara Phalguni - Ascendant Nakshatra Life Pattern

Please refer to the introductory article here – https://www.astrosaxena.com/articles/AscendantNakshatraandLifePattern to understand the theme and purpose of this series.

So, now we will try to understand that what will happen if Uttara Phalguni Nakshatra is someone’s Ascendant Nakshatra and how it is going to impact the life pattern of person.

So, let’s cover this article under the following points –

Ascendant Nakshatra – There is something called the Ascendant Nakshatra. It is based on the degree of Ascendant (please find introduction of all the Nakshatras here - https://www.astrosaxena.com/articles/intronaksh)

If Ascendant shows the life path then Ascendant Nakshatra will show the pattern of life. It shows the activities we follow throughout life as pattern.

Uttara Phalguni – Uttara Phalguni Nakshatra spreads from 26.40 degree of Leo to 10.00 degree of Virgo. Uttara Phalguni is nakshatra of hard work, realistic approach and practicalities of life. It is also nakshatra of agreements, deals and conflicts. For detailed information, please check this - https://www.astrosaxena.com/uphnaksh.

Effect of Uttara Phalguni Nakshatra as Ascendant Nakshatra – Uttara Phalguni represents the hard working part of Leo/Virgo. It shows the administrative work, people management and efforts/work. It shows practical and realistic side of life. It also shows people who can be very smart in finance related dealings etc. So, when Uttara Phalguni is someone’s ascendant nakshatra, any of these traits/characteristics can become someone’s ascendant nakshatra.

Ascendant Nakshatra Lord’s Position – Now, as ascendant shows our life path and ascendant lord’s position in chart shows the direction of life path; likewise, ascendant nakshatra shows our life pattern and position of ascendant nakshatra lord in chart shows that in which area of life, the life pattern will be exhibited.

Like, we have discussed all above traits and characteristics of Uttara Phalguni Nakshatra which (any of them) can become Life Pattern for someone if it is person’s ascendant nakshatra. Now, in whichever House/Sign Uttara Phalguni lord Sun is placed in a Leo/Virgo Ascendant's chart, person may get Uttara Phalguni’s and Sun’s results as life pattern. Additionally, person’s life pattern involving aforementioned activities can be exhibited from the house/sign wherever Sun is placed in chart.

Here, going through Sun’s position in each house/sign can be repetitive or monotonous. So, for understanding the end result, we can rely on the Concept of Who, How, What & Where - https://www.astrosaxena.com/articles/whww.

“Where” is the House where event is happening.

“What” is the Sign which is indicating towards event.

“Who” is the Planet who is bringing the event; and

“How” is the quality of event which depends on nature and dignity of planet.

For example, Sun in 3rd house/Libra for a Leo ascendant chart would show that native’s life pattern can be all about gaining authority and recognition but it may happen largely through own business as Sun is debilitated. It shows that person can be very hard working and good administrator at his own business which can bring good authority to him. But if the same person goes to work under other’s authority then he can get into lots of ego issues.

Whereas Sun in 6th house/Aquarius for Virgo ascendant chart shows that this person can be a good administrator or people manager at any corporate office or at any large organization. This person might have gained his authority after immense hard work and persistence. At the same time, this also shows ego clashes in relationship or with authority figures as 6th house represents conflicts, Sun represents Ego and Aquarius is enemy sign for Sun.

Final example, Sun in 8th house/Aries shows that person may be inclined to serve and devote self towards people through his business and there he may gain his authority and recognition. Person can also be inclined to serve people through occult and mysticism. At the same time, relationship matters can be impacted by ego clashes. As Sun is exalted here, person can get good amount of authority and recognition.

Like this, we can understand about how and where the ascendant nakshatra lord is exhibiting the results of life pattern. In further articles of Ascendant Nakshatra and Life Pattern, I will cover other house/sign positions which would help us in learning interpretation of Ascendant Nakshatra and Life Pattern in a more holistic way.

Dignity – As always, Dignity of Planet has the highest say. If Sun is in exaltation (Aries), Own Sign (Leo), Friendly Signs (Cancer, Scorpio, Sagittarius and Pisces) and Neutral Signs (Gemini and Virgo), there is a potential that person can get results without much difficulties or obstacles. When Sun is in Enemy Sign (Taurus), Saturnine Signs (Capricorn & Aquarius) and Debilitated Sign (Libra) then things can be difficult to achieve and extra hard work is needed to be done.

Even this distinction can be understood differently by different people. Many a times, we don’t value things which are easily achieved or available to us and we end-up in valuing those things for which we had to work really hard. So, it is very difficult to judge as to which result is good or which result is bad. It largely depends on individual.

Conclusion – As I understand, this is how we can understand as to how ascendant nakshatra can setup the life pattern for people with Uttara Phalguni Nakshatra as the Ascendant Nakshatra.

Hope this helps. Thanks,
