Krittika is the third Nakshatra occupying 26 degrees 40 minutes Aries to 10 degress Taurus. It is ruled by Sun. Here's what it for means you.
He is the leader of the Vasus, the divine Gods ruling Earth. He’s the son of Lord Prajapati, who is the creator of all creatures. A mythical tale assigns a father-son and a son-father relationship between Lord Agni and Lord Prajapati, adding fuel to the creative fire associated with Lord Agni. He’s lauded the second most number of times, behind Lord Indra, in the Rigveda, which is symbolic of his power and influence. He accepts food on behalf of all the Gods and is also seen as a messenger between humans and the Gods. He blesses the native with intelligence (tejas) to comprehend complicated subjects and burn the veil of delusion that keeps one from true knowledge. By his grace, the native may even elevate to the highest planes of spirituality. All universities, colleges, institutes, schools, and religious and spiritual centers are directly linked to Krittika. Lord Grihapati is a form of Lord Agni venerated by all households as he represents the fire in our kitchens that cook our food, he also protects us against wild animals, and warms our bodies through with his heat. A mythical tale narrates a story of Lord Agni burning incessantly of 14 days in the forest devouring everything at sight, which is symbolic of Lord Agni’s insatiable hunger. The native may have a large appetite for life (too ambitious), and so may burn out mentally and physically. The native may fall prey to jealousy, revenge, material desires, and lust.
One legend describes him to be the sun of Lord Agni and another describes him to the son of Lord Rudra. So, there might be a question mark over who the native's real parents are? Lord Karttikeya defeated the most powerful demon at a very early age and thereafter he became the commander of the celestial army. The native would be full of energy, courageous, fearless, risk-taker, enterprising, independent, powerful, and would possess the ability to defeat all enemies and overcome all obstacles. Fueled by Lord Agni, the native would always be eager to learn. Lord Karttikeya was raised by 6 mothers, who were the wives of the Saptarishis (the divine sages). And so, the native would be tough (warrior-like) on the outside and soft (caring) on the inside. His expression of care is through protection. Moon is exalted in this nakshatra for this reason. Soldiers, sportspersons, martial artists, blacksmiths, fire-fighters, surgeons, cooks, teachers, professors, religious guides, spiritual gurus are seen from this nakshatra.
