Āśleṣā - The regenerative one
Āśleṣā means ‘embrace’ and ‘clinging’, reflecting skills in mental and emotional manipulation - for good or ill. It is ruled by a serpent, while its symbol is a coiled snake. Snakes represents hidden, occult knowledge and spiritual awakening, as well as poisons, which shows an interest in treating illness. This sign creates immense spiritual and healing powers.
When the Moon transits Āśleṣā, it's a good day for secret knowledge, removing poisons and treating disease.
