Punarvasu Nakshatra

Punarvasu "return of the light" 20.00 Gemini to 3.20 Gemini - Cancer

Symbol - Bow and quiver (case that contains the arrows) 

Deity - Aditi, the mother of the gods, she is boundless, vast and limitless, goddess of abundance 

Stars - Castor and Pollux the Gemini twins; the full meaning is "the two who give back the good." Castor was the mortal twin known for his skill in horsemanship. This star suggests intellect, sudden fame and honor, sometimes followed by sudden loss. Pollux the immortal twin is known for his skill in boxing. This star gives a courageous nature but cold and heartless. 

Indications - This is referred to as the "Star of Renewal". After the bleak storms of Ardra the light appears again. Those with this nakshata have the ability to bounce back again, for they have deep limitless inner resources, and no boundaries as to what they can accomplish. They are deeply philosophical, inspirational, and spiritual with a true genuine understanding, which gives them their wisdom. There hardly seems to be a shadow side. They are likable, and charming. Because of their forgiving ways, others seem to forgive them easily. They love to travel, but just as the arrow is returned to the quiver so must these natives have a home base with family to return. There is a definite theme of return and renewal. As they give back to the world their prosperity doubles. This is a very prosperous nakshatra. They don’t have the need for a lot, they are content with little.
