Career and Nature
Ruled by Mercury, Jyeshtha natives often do well in commerce, accounts, writing, IT, media and teaching. The deity Indra and the symbol of a circular earring add their own flavour to the work style.
Birth dasha
Someone born with the Moon in Jyeshtha starts life in the Mercury Mahadasha. The balance depends on how far the Moon had travelled through the nakshatra at birth.
