The story

Shatabhisha is ruled by Varuna, the ancient keeper of the cosmic waters and the celestial laws that bind the universe. The empty circle symbolises the protective shield around the heart, as well as the zero from which all forms arise. With a hundred physicians to heal ailments of body and mind, this star represents patience in recovery. Tradition holds that Shatabhisha grants an analytical mind, deep intuition, and a quiet dedication to finding holistic ways that restore balance to weary souls.
