Nectar of Immortality
Hide and Seek
Location: 23.20 of Taurus - 06.40 of Gemini
When the universe formed, all energy from our central black hole projected outward into the simulation that we know as life. But what was meant to be a rolling film was in fact a still image with no moving parts.
That was not enough.
How do you create a film? You stack the frames in front of each other so they look like they are moving. In other words, you create the illusion of passing time.
Mrigashira nakshatra are propellers of the function of TIME. And in simpler terms, if you understand the Deer, you will master this energy. Writing for this nakshatra was complex. Because it was deceptively simple to write for and yet there was nothing simple about it.
The deity that rules over this constellation is SOMA, also known as the Moon God. Soma is the sticky fluid found inside of plants that forms the channels necessary for photosynthesis. It is also offered in temples to deities.
The symbol of this nakshatra is a Deer, and a lesser-known symbol is a Snake. The natives are ruled by Mars. Located somewhere between Taurus and Gemini, the nakshatra falls within the constellation of Orion - the great Hunter of our skies. Of which the main star ruling Mrigashira is Bellatrix.
Characteristics of Mrigashirans
Mrigashirans are playful creatures - they love the game of hide and seek. Just like a deer in the woods, they are constantly seeking resources for survival. Foraging for food makes for a major part of their search. Because so many are searching for the same resources, natives become extremely flighty with the slightest sign of danger.
But once they have found their footing, they make bigger goals and go after them with all they have gathered. This makes them excellent businessmen. Natives can be affluent and accumulate much wealth in their lifetimes, because they have skills to keep multiple sources of income flowing towards them.
But in modern times, accumulating wealth is a tricky business. What skills have you got? Mrigashirans make for great sales people and are often media geniuses. They can be bloggers, influencers, editors, graphic designers, directors, producers and anything that needs a touch of technical skill can be mastered by them in a flash.
They are great at execution too, and not just talking big. However, the problem arises when they need to settle on a goal. They have their fingers in too many pies and often fail to realize that multitasking is good for no one.
The Quest for Meaning
This problem begins with an age-old quest to find meaning in their lives. Because much like the Deer, Mrigashirans are peaceful creatures. When there is too much noise in their head they tend to flee from the chaos. And this makes for an interesting mix for impulsive behavior wrapped in unwanted mistakes.
And so... the seeking continues on.
If you haven't already guessed, the purpose of this nakshatra is to seek. By constantly searching for something and creating the illusion of time passing, they can fulfill their destiny and find the nectar of immortality. Irony here, is lost on them.
The Complex Energy
The secret of this nakshatra lies in the complex combination of the energies that form it -- Moon, Venus, Mercury and Mars lay the foundation for a unique combination of manifestations. Constantly waxing and waning, the moon makes them restless, emotional beings who form relationships rather too quickly.
Their Venusian side makes them romantic, materially driven beings who are sure to experience affluence in their lifetimes. Their Mercurian side gives the natives many friends, skills, and business acumen. But they may also experience choice paralysis with all these paths to take.
Their Martian side gives them the boost to execute their plans. However, do not mistake this Martian energy for conquest. These natives do not initiate confrontation. Their flight instinct is sharper than their fight. The are capable of escaping you as if they never existed in the first place.
Physical and Sensory Characteristics
Natives from the Bellatrix star are attractive like the Doe with slender, athletic bodies and narrow faces and rather magnificent eyes. They are elegant in appearance. They laugh easily and are easy to get along with.
They can easily relate to people around them and have a comforting presence. They are great at sensing a change in your emotional state. It's as if they are smelling your pheromones, much like an animal that's acutely attuned to its environment.
At home, Mrigashirans are always foraging for food. The smellier the food, the tastier it is to them. Stale pizzas, blue cheese and ones that have marinated for a long time are most appealing to them. They are looking to indulge their senses. They enjoy wearing strong perfumes. They are attracted to aroma-therapy.
They also have a super-charged mind. They are constantly in their heads and this can cause them to have sleep issues. Their shadow manifests when their internal sensitivity adopts a weighing scale of comparison to the world around them.
The best way to keep up their self-worth is to not let themselves be misguided by others. They are primed for influence and this can lead to their downfall. Developing discernment is an important remedy here. But a herd mentality is hardwired into their subconscious mind. This is where matters of individuality can take a challenging turn.
And so, the seeking continues on.
The Secrets of Bellatrix
Bellatrix is considered one of the more difficult stars in the constellation of Orion. Orion is a mix of the good, the bad and the ugly. But there's a lid for every pot. Bellatrix's involvement in many Orion wars has given it a rather unpleasant history which is now changing into a more benevolent state of affairs, from a Snake-like approach to one of a Deer.
Their long-standing reptilian past is starting to take on a spiritual bent. But with the star's full power on this nakshatra, some difficult aspects of their history can manifest.
The purpose of this star is moksha. Eyes wide anyone? Just hang tight.
The second half of the nakshatra which falls in Gemini is ruled by Mercury and Mars and that's where Bellatrix shines. With a cutting intellect it can accomplish tasks when it chooses single-minded focus. But it can be an uphill battle to get there.
Orion Starseeds and Their Journey
Orion starseeds first appeared on Earth around the 60s. The baby-boomer generation had many. Much has been written about the fallout from the world-war, the industrial culture and then the counter-culture that followed. Today, they are healing their differences.
These star seeds are here to support the new age with wisdom gained from all the chaos. Their lineage is all the better for it. Younger beings with this alignment are unique individuals who shine wherever they go.
Social and Relationship Dynamics
Natives of this star can dress up to show their status but through sub-diffuse. They enjoy the company of others and travel in herds like the deer. They can be diplomatic if they choose, however, mostly they have a secretive nature to them that doesn't unfold publicly with ease.
One needs to initiate tactfully with these beings or risk spooking them. There is an inherent defensiveness to them, as the hunt for resources is their primary goal. This sort of behavior leads to a lack of trust within their relationships and can create trouble in long-standing marriages. But with enough space and some understanding, these natives become less guarded.
Natives can have unrealistic expectations in love and seek traits in people that don't exist. With everything the natives must realize that the Gods have two sides to themselves as well. They can be as benevolent as life-giving milk and as violent as the void of the black hole.
They must learn that people never show up as one needs them to be.
And if they realize this sooner rather than later, the natives will see this duality within themselves also, where they go from the gentleness of the deer to being downright attacking when triggered.
Once the herd mentality is curbed, Mrigashirans discover that they are natural leaders. And yet they often work best within a group. Prominent planets in this nakshatra can indicate difficulty in their spiritual path as there can be many ups and downs in their journeys.
But they won't find the nectar of immortality if they never settle down long enough for it to manifest. Because the true nectar, after all, is within and not without.
The Ultimate Meaning
What they are really wanting isn't so much the elixir of life or the fountain of youth. They are looking for 'purpose'. And yet, the greatest joy of life is discovering that there is absolutely no meaning in the universe.
We all are simply playing roles in the giant simulation, making for big and small characters in a movie. Whether you play your role well or not, makes no difference. You get recycled back into the system and try again.
Rinse and repeat.
But when a Mrigashiran native finds their unique role to play in this brief timeline, it gives them the illusion of time passing quickly. And when time passes fast enough, it seems like it stops into a singularity. This is the true nectar that every spiritual seeker has ever wanted. One that comes from the removal of illusion. One that is permanent.
