Why does Krittika nakshatra energy feel like a total power struggle?

Why does Krittika nakshatra energy feel like a total power struggle? Seriously, I’ve been feeling it hard lately.

With both the Sun and Moon parked in Taurus right now—specifically in Krittika—it’s like I’m constantly being forced to sharpen my own edges. I’m usually the one driving the agenda, but this transit feels like the universe is burning away the dead weight in my career path whether I like it or not.

It’s not comfortable. It’s aggressive.

I sat down this morning to map out my next move, and I couldn't help but check my Vyom app just to see exactly where these degrees were sitting. Seeing that Mars is already heating up in Aries while the Sun is in that second pada… it explains why I’m snapping at people who aren’t keeping up with the pace.

But here’s the thing that gets me. Is this supposed to be a 'cleansing' fire or just pure destruction?

Because I’ve been told for years that the 'cutter' energy of Krittika is necessary for leadership, yet it feels like I’m constantly dismantling my own progress to get to the next level. Maybe that’s just the price of ambition? Or maybe I’m just trying to control a fire that isn’t meant to be tamed yet.

Are you guys feeling this intensity in your professional life, or am I just projecting my own drive onto the stars?
