See where Punarvasu falls in your birth chart — the sign, house and nakṣatra it occupies.
Punarvasu is the seventh nakshatra, bridging Gemini and Cancer. Its name means 'the return of light' — renewal after difficulty, generosity, and the ability to begin again. People under it tend to be optimistic, friendly and calm, holding their confidence through hard times and treating obstacles as challenges to be overcome; naturally generous and spiritually inclined, though sometimes restless or changeable of mind. Like arrows that return to the hand, its gift is the power to begin again.
Presided over by Aditi, mother of the gods, with the quiver of arrows as its symbol — arrows that return to the hand. Its Vimshottari lord is Guru.

Span 20°00′ Mithuna – 3°20′ Karka; lord Jupiter. Its final pada sits in Karka where Jupiter is exalted — a classically celebrated birth pada; the sign change again splits the reading between airy exchange and watery nurture.
