Career and Nature
Ruled by Saturn, Pushya natives often do well in mining, manufacturing, labour-intensive industries, law and long-term service. The deity Brihaspati and the symbol of a cow's udder add their own flavour to the work style.
Birth dasha
Someone born with the Moon in Pushya starts life in the Saturn Mahadasha. The balance depends on how far the Moon had travelled through the nakshatra at birth.
