Overview of Purva Phalguni Nakshatra in Astrology

This nakshatra entirely belongs to the sign of Leo. It is called the ‘former reddish one’. The symbol for this nakshatra is a hammock or front legs of the cot. The hammock or cot represents relaxation. The natives can sometimes be lazy. Otherwise, they are usually very carefree. They do not tend to worry much as they are blessed by their deity, which is ‘Bhagha’, the god of fortune and luck. Hence, this nakshatra deals with extreme prosperity and happiness.

The word ‘Bhaga’ itself means share or portion. The natives get their share of abundance in this life. Phalguni consists of two words – ‘Phal’ means fruit, and ‘Guni’ means quality. It is said that Purva Phalguni natives are the ones who get fruits of their good deeds from the past lives. ‘Phalgun’ month is the beginning of spring. Connecting to this analogy, the natives will have a blessed life. This nakshatra is about settling down and marriage. Bhaga gives marital bliss and protects the bond.

Another thing that is well known for this nakshatra is the family inheritance. Another nakshatra that deals with family inheritance is Uttara Bhadrapada. Since it is Purva Phalguni Nakshatra which means the former, so prosperity happens in the early part of life.
