Deep reading of Mithuna

Mithuna is the first airy and dual rashi - the realm of speech, learning and exchange. Ruled by Budha (Mercury), it connects opposites and builds bridges. In Mithuna, Rahu is considered well placed because the media and communication sphere amplifies its influence. The nakshatras here are the 3rd and 4th quarters of Mrigashira, all of Ardra and the first three quarters of Punarvasu. Ardra brings storm and renewal, Punarvasu the return home after searching. Karmically Mithuna learns to choose among many voices and focus thought. Upayas: reading sacred texts, Budha mantra, green clothing on Wednesday, breath awareness.
