Imagine a beautiful deer wandering in a thick forest while pausing to look deeply

into your eyes and jumping out of sight. This is the nature of a Mrigashira. This
constellation spans from 23.20 degrees in Taurus up to 6.40 degrees in Gemini. They
are the beautiful, golden deer wandering in deep, dark realms while you catch a
sight of them.

They will chase or make you chase but ‘chase’ always relates as the trait of a
Mrigashira. It will fascinate you, intrigue you but can never be held. It is like a
dream which you see only to realize it as a fantasy in your waking reality. This is
the essence of Mrigashira. Imagination, fantasy, search for the ethereal and
pursuit of ultimate joy. Some have it, some never do.

Mrigashira traits teach a person to have a dream and chase it. It teaches us to
make it a reality by striving for it. But it also teaches us the difference between
fantasy and action to make it real. For an underdog, fantasy can be having
exceptional education or professional expertise and recognition, or becoming a
world-renowned orator someday; reality is actually working for it to make it come
true which makes the world know you as the underdog who made it big.

For example, someone who is the ‘usual’ or ‘normal’ becomes a fashion ensemble
someday - Prada. Or a slum-dweller who gets a miracle-scholarship at Oxford.
Mrigashira is the constellation which inspires you to chase a dream. It could have
been the invention of a light bulb, or it could be movable homes built under water-
submarines. Mrigashira tests your capability to imagine and make it come true.

What’s abnormal, unreachable to the majority, is normal, natural and obvious to a


Mrigashira. It gives you the mind to think of the most impossible, most unthought
of, and sometimes irrational of things and then makes you want to chase them and
make it true, specifically in a world of creativity and intelligence combined.
There is a fine line between being an absolute fool and being a creative fool, the
latter is the mark of intelligence. Mrigashira walks that line in style. It will be
criticized by some, and upheld by some for their work and views.
