Chitra Nakshatra

Chitra Nakshatra is the fourteenth nakshatra and comes after Hasta Nakshatra. Chitra’s zodiac range is from 23° 20′ Virgo to 6° 40′ Libra; therefore, the perfectionist sign of Virgo and the creative sign of Libra influences the nature of this nakshatra. Nevertheless, the previous nakshatra Hasta is related to craftsmanship, artistry, and handcrafts. Therefore, Hasta is the unpolished form of handcrafts while Chitra takes the unpolished handcrafts and polishes them to perfection, so they are beautiful in form and appearance. This is why a ‘Beautiful Polished Jewel’ or Diamond is the main symbol of Chitra Nakshatra. It takes billions of years with tremendous heat and pressure for the earth to create a diamond. Therefore, A ‘diamond in the rough’ is Hasta at work; however, when the diamond is cut, shaped, and polished this is the nature of Chitra Nakshatra. Therefore, Chitra relates to hard work, beauty, formation, design, architecture, etc. Nevertheless, the name, Chitra means ‘Bright’ and is synonymous with the terms Beautiful, Multicolor, Glitter. All of these names represent the nature of Chitra nakshatra.

Chitra Nakshatra Star – Spica

Chitra Nakshatra is represented by a solitary star known as Spica. The star Spica is located in the lower part of the constellation of Virgo (hip region). Spica is a radiant star, shining bright in the heavens. Spica is associated with wealth, success, artistic endeavors, and architects. This star is Vishwakarma (Chitra deity) who is the creator/architect of Maya (physical world).

Chitra Symbol: Beautiful Jewel

A Beautiful Jewel is Chitra’s main symbol. This is the type of Jewel that has been cut and polished to perfection. Because it has been polished and shaped with care and attention to detail the jewel is ‘Beautiful’. This symbolism is the reason why this nakshatra is associated with appearance.

Deity Tvasta/Vishwakarma | Creator of the Universe

Tvastar is the ruling deity of Chitra nakshatra; Tvastar is the deity of creation, architect, design, lokas (tier systems), and offspring.

To prevent confusion, I will use the name Tvastar as the ruling deity. Therefore, Tvastar created the entire universe and is known as the artisan, creative worker, and architect of the Gods.

To create the universe, Tvastar created Maya which is the energy of the illusion that sustains the physical world. The term Maya means a physical manifestation that keeps us bound to performing karmas, creating karmas, and reliving karmas. This is the cycle of reincarnation (birth and rebirth) in which we live a physical life and reduce our karmas. It is important to mention that the name Vishwakarma has the word Karma in it. Nevertheless, Tvastar created lokas (tier systems) or levels of initiation. Tvastar is the father of the three-headed Asura (known as Trishira/Vishvarupa) who was defeated by Indra. In retaliation, Tvastar created a dragon named Vritra, Tvastar is the father of many daughters including Sanjana, who was married to Surya (Sun God).
