Krittika

Krittika is one of the 27 nakshatras (lunar constellations) in Vedic astrology, located along the ecliptic. It spans from approximately 26.40° to 40.00° of the Aries sign. Symbolized by a cutter or a sharp edge, Krittika signifies qualities like clarity, sharpness, and transformative power. People born under this nakshatra are often considered determined, energetic, and ambitious, with a strong sense of discipline. Krittika also represents the goddess Agni (fire), highlighting qualities of passion and purification. In astrology, it influences one's inclinations, career choices, and personality traits, emphasizing strength and resilience.
