Let’s look at important things here –
Saturn - It is all that which we don't like in our life. Saturn is Delay, Frustration, Restriction, Limitation and Anxiety. It is people of Authority, like Boss at your Work Place or Father-Figure at Home. Saturn is our Karmic Debt from past-life. Saturn is the things we didn't treat too well in our past life. Saturn is our Challenges and Lessons of life. Saturn is Old-Age, Teeth/Bones in Human Body, Diseases, Changes etc. Saturn represents our Step-Relations, it means that wherever Saturn sits, people related with that house give us Step Treatment. Saturn is Hard Work, Efforts and most importantly Perseverance etc. Nothing comes easy and in one go with Saturn. You have to work hard continuously over the longest possible period of life. Saturn makes a person Legend as Legends have one thing in common that they choose one field and work hard in it for whole life.
Ashlesha - Ashlesha represents our insecurities and weaknesses as a human being. It is a nakshatra of clinging on to someone or something. It also represents psychological issues. For more information on Ashlesha Nakshatra, please check this link - https://www.astrosaxena.com/Ashlnaksh.
Cancer - As Ashlesha is a part of Cancer, Cancer sign and its representations become important. Cancer is 4th sign of Zodiac Belt, hence it represents the things represented by 4th house like Mother, Mother's Care, Emotions, Taking Care of Others and Nourishment etc. Cancer is consisted of 2 and half Nakshatras namely Punarvasu, Pushyami and Ashlesha. Cancer's lord is Moon, which again represents almost same things which Cancer and 4th house represents.
Moon - As Moon rules Cancer, Moon's position and dignity is important to know about the overall functioning of any planet in Ashlesha/Cancer.
Mercury - As Ashlesha is ruled by Mercury, Mercury's position and dignity will also have an important role in functioning and results of any planet in Ashlesha.
Houses Involved – Also, we can’t afford to forget the houses involved as a planet can be ruling different houses and sitting in different house for every person as per ascendant and planet’s position. To know overall affect, we have to consider the houses involved as those areas of life are being impacted.
Generic Results of Saturn - Lots of things change in life with Saturn. Hence, many things will change with Saturn in different nakshatras. As Saturn represents delay, hard work and perseverance, it shows that whichever nakshatra it is placed in, Saturn will give results with hard work, delay and perseverance. With Saturn, it doesn’t matter if he is in friendly sign/nakshatra or enemy sign/nakshatra. Saturn represents either challenges or even more challenges anywhere. It can never be convenient or pleasant in any house/sign positions, not even in exaltation. Another generic thing will be Saturn’s results in relationship matters. Saturn is a cold or harsh planet. In any house/sign/nakshatra, Saturn would show that people related with that house will give person a very harsh or cold treatment. In romantic relations, Saturn will just suck the pleasure factor away and relationship life can be very dry and cold. People say that after 35 Saturn gives better results but I feel that it is not that Saturn will bring better results but we realize our limitations in life till 30-35 years of age and we understand that what we can expect in life and what we cannot. With this background, let’s understand Saturn in various nakshatras.
Interpretation of Saturn in Ashlesha Nakshatra – Saturn is in enemy sign here but it is in friendly nakshatra of Mercury. But besides that, the nature of Ashlesha is not great anyways. As Ashlesha shows our insecurities & clinging attitude and it is one of the most difficult nakshatras, this is a difficult position because Saturn itself remains the most malefic planet among all. Saturn in Ashlesha can give person many painful experiences due to clinging and holding on to things or people. As Saturn represents long durations, it shows that pain and suffering due to clinging will last over a long period of time. Many of times they cling to people who are Saturnian by nature; i.e. who are detached and non-emotional. Hence, the pain and suffering is obvious. Hence, for personal-emotional relations, it is not a good a good planetary position.
We can utilize it in matters of healing, either physical or psychological. Saturn in Cancer people are naturally good at healing. As Ashlesha represents someone’s emotional or psychological issues, it shows that these people can be good as psychologist and counsellors. They can be good healers. Ashlesha is also a Serpant Energy which is representation of Kundalini. So, Saturn in Ashlesha can help in spiritual evolution of someone.
But as always, results will come with delay, hard work and perseverance, either as a Doctor or as a Psychologist or as a Spiritual Teacher. They have to work really hard to attain success in their chosen field.
Role of Moon – Moon's placement is important to guide Saturn in right direction, being Cancer's lord.
Role of Mercury - Mercury's placement is important to guide Saturn in right direction, being Ashlesha's lord.
Other Factors – And of course, we need to consider conjunction, aspects, house lordship, house position and dashas etc to know the exact results of Saturn in Ashlesha. So, we always need to take a holistic view of chart rather than just 1 planetary position.
Conclusion – So, this is how I see Saturn in Ashlesha can work in a chart.
Hope this helps. Please post any comment or query you may have.
