Finding Ground in Hasta Nakshatra

Mercury is currently passing through Hasta, and it’s a great time to look at what that really means for your day-to-day life. Hasta is represented by the hand, showing us the power of practical skill and healing. Since Mercury is the planet of communication and intellect, this placement pushes you to be more hands-on with your problems instead of just overthinking them.

It’s a nurturing energy. If you've been feeling scattered, this transit helps you get your tasks in order and find rhythm in your routine. Because Hasta is ruled by Savitar, the god of creative impulse, you might find that fixing things—or even cooking a meal for your family—brings you a sense of genuine peace. Don’t ignore the small, physical chores right now. They’re actually the best way to quiet a busy mind. When you focus on your hands, your spirit follows.
