Nakshatra 9

Ashlesha आश्लेषा

Ashlesha, ruled by Mercury and the serpent Nagas, gives hypnotic insight, cunning and the power to penetrate secrets.

Natives born under Ashlesha tend to be penetrating, mystical, shrewd. The nakshatra belongs to the Rakshasa gana and Madhya nadi, both of which matter in marriage compatibility.

Baby name syllables

By tradition, a baby born in Ashlesha is named with one of these starting sounds, one per pada:

Di (Pada 1)Du (Pada 2)De (Pada 3)Do (Pada 4)
