The Nature of Pushya Nakshatra is as follows:
- It is one of the most benefic Nakshatras
- The entire Nakshatra falls in the Zodiac of Cancer (the natural 4th House as per Kalpurush Kundali)
- The Nakshatra Lord is Saturn while the Ruling Deity is Brihaspati (Guru or Jupiter). This gives the Nakshatra the ability to be knowledgeable, and caring while adhering to rules
- The Nakshatra gives an inclination towards higher learning, spiritual growth, and delving in building things with long-term relevance
Now, Let us look into the Nature of Rahu:
- Rahu is a shadow planet without having any specific house assigned to it
- Under many circumstances, Rahu behaves like Saturn, but with a subtle difference. The difference is that Rahu believes in finding different ways to solve the same problem rather than sticking to one path (as Saturn does)
- Rahu is the ruler of Kaliyuga as it influences the Mind (Moon) very fast leading to distractions from long-term commitments in life
Now, let us look into what happens when Rahu is placed in the 3rd House – Pushya Nakshatra
- The Individual is a Taurus/Vrishab Lagna (the ruling planet being Venus). Owing to this, the placement of Venus, Mahadasha, and Transit will impact the well-being of the Individual
- Rahu is placed in the 3rd House makes the individual think deeply about their long-term goals before they venture into committing to any project or job
- As Ketu is placed in the 9th House, either the individual will tend to like to earn certifications and degrees or will discontinue their pursuit and focus on hands-on learning
- With supportive mercury, the individual will tend to be good at convincing people and getting them ready to join a project or cause
- As the Zodiac is Cancer, the placement of the Moon can shape the support they receive from home in early life
