Shatabhisha Nakshatra by Prash Trivedi
Shatabhisha is an asterism represented by a faint group of stars in the constellation of Kumbha. It is associated with the functioning of Rahu and is known as "hundred physicians" or "possessing a hundred healers" in Sanskrit. Its alternative name, Shatataraka, means "possessing a hundred stars." The main symbol of Shatabhisha is an empty circle, which represents a round magical charm or the infinite void of creation. The circle also signifies containment, protection, and hiding, relating to the secrecy and ability to conceal secrets associated with this asterism. It is also connected to enclosed water bodies like lakes and oceans, as well as the idea of identity through segregation. Shatabhisha is strongly associated with the concept of protection and operates as a boundary that shields from external dangers.
