shatabishak + the handmaiden (2016)
spoiler warning!
nakshatras as movies i love
Rahuvian in nature, Satabishak placements can lend to themes of primordial expansion, healing, and renewal in one's life. Mimicking primary succession, Satabishak is the first signs of life after tragedy, like fields of wildflowers growing atop the bones of a great fire. Hence, these Aquarius placements often break generational cycles or patterns, seeking to become individuals in their own right.
Satabishak rules over lies, secrecy, and other illusions. Just as how Shatabishak transits are inauspicious for marriage, childbirth, and other beginnings, people born under the nakshatra often face many struggles early in their lives. Whether it's growing up in a broken home or being frequently ill as a child, Shatabishak natives tend to face struggles while they're younger that have shaped who they are as people.
Called the "Midnight Sun" in scriptures, Shatabishak's patron Varuna rules over all that is overcast and murky. Lord of the rain and the terrestrial/cosmic "waters" of the universe, he's often depicted with his other half Mitra (the "Noontime Sun" who rules over Anuradha). This movie showcases the mutual attraction often found between Shatabishak and Anuradha natives. They seem to heal each other as they melt together, forming a mutualism that balances each other out.
The struggles that young Satabishaks face do not mean they're unlucky by nature. Like a purifying fire, they seem to cleanse all of their karma in the beginning of their lives at once, lending them great fortune later as healers, teachers, and lovers.
