bharani
bharani's presiding deity is Yama, the god of death. let's talk about some of the implications and effects of this that may not be so pretty or glamorous. bharani natives may struggle with suicidal ideation, sometimes from a young age. bharani may subconsciously harm themselves as a way to "tease death" and test their own mortality in a way. harming oneself and self-inflicting pain can be a means of seemingly regaining control when everything seems to be spiraling. yamraj is the dispenser of justice - he who punishes the deserving, making sure we atone for our crimes and sins. infused with this energy, bharanis often feel "deserving of punishment" & go about self destructive behaviors as a means to punish themselves. they may even seek out relationships that "punish them," in one or more ways. a theme with bharani is playing with fire. in the heat of the moment, in the throes of impulsivity, bharani may throw all caution to the wind. bharani's emotions are extremely intense, deep and turbulent. so are the emotions of scorpio, but scorpio is a water sign that harbors intense emotions, letting them fester and stagnate. bharani sits in the sign of aries, a fire sign. raging emotions, emotions that run hot like hellfire, emotions that may even frighten you yourself. sometimes it may feel like you're trapped in your own mind, in a hell of your own creation. we love talking about venus' glamour, her splendor and beauty — but venus is fierce. she's uncompromising, unyielding and harsh. bharani represents "survival of the fittest" - the aspect of nature that is constantly killing and eating each other. the real world is harsh & does not coddle you. venusian energy is extremely harsh and critical, especially specially self-critical. combined with bharani's realm of death, placements here are not always easy and light to navigate.
