"The Former Invincible One", "Former Unconquered", "Undefeated"

"First of the aṣāḍhā", aṣāḍhā "the invincible one" being the name of a constellation.

Purvashada is composed of three stars located in the middle portion of Sagittarius: Kaus Australis, Kaus Borealis, and Kaus Media. These stars are easily visible in the night sky and are thought to resemble a fan. People born under this star have an optimistic and independent nature. They feel invincible and believe they cannot lose. The ruling deity, Apas, brings a strong connection with the element of water. Thus, Purvashada is associated with fluidity and power. Those born under this nakshatra have the capacity to inspire and energize others. Yet they must be aware of mental aggression and confrontation. Purvashada also has a reputation for starting battles and produces fearlessness.
