Punarvasu - The truthful One

Punarvasu means 'light again' and is symbolized by an arrow returning to its quiver. This represents repeating patterns, the underlying pattern in everything. It has a benevolent nature; pure and virtuous, kind and forgiving. It is ruled by the infinite goddess and mother of all creation, representing the underlying pattern of order and cohesion. It is idealistic in pursuit of truth and wishes to protect and care for families and communities.

When the Moon transits Punarvasu, it's a good day for healing, travelling and study.
