Pushya
Pushya — the cosmic nourisher. You are here to feed, sustain, and bless — and to receive the same in return.
Gift
Extraordinary ability to nourish and sustain others. Wisdom, nurturing instinct, and the capacity to give without depletion.
Shadow
Martyrdom — giving so much that your own nourishment is neglected. The well runs dry if never refilled.
Shadow remedy
Weekly: one practice of pure self-nourishment — for you alone.
Career
Teaching, nutrition, agriculture, counselling, banking, spiritual leadership, healthcare.
Relationships

Money
Natural abundance through giving. The more genuinely you give, the more returns — but give from fullness not depletion.

Om Brihaspataye Namah
