Shravana Nakshatra — wise, studious, carrier of knowledge through lineage.

About Shravana

Shravana nakshatra, ruled by the Moon, spans 10°00′ to 23°20′ Makara (Capricorn). Natives tend toward learning, communication, and service orientation. Classical texts describe strong auditory perception, memory, and intellectual curiosity. Often drawn to counsel, teaching, or listening professions. Emotionally sensitive yet duty-bound; the nakshatra carries themes of hearing sacred knowledge and transmitting wisdom. Makara's earthiness grounds lunar sensitivity into practical service. Governed by Vishnu in mythological correspondence, Shravana brings devotional inclination and ethical responsibility. Life themes include establishing authority through knowledge, navigating family duty, and balancing emotional receptivity with professional discipline.
