Vedic Astrology

Mula

Ruled by Ketu, presided over by Nirriti, goddess of dissolution. The power to break apart and reach the root. The tearing-up that exposes the foundation.

The read

Mula means the root, and its symbol is a bunch of roots tied together, or the elephant goad. Its shakti is barhana, the power to break things apart. The theme is radical inquiry: digging to the bottom of things, even when it means tearing down what stood there before.
Nirriti, goddess of dissolution and destruction, presides here, lending intensity, a fearless relationship with endings, and a pull toward the foundational and the taboo. There is investigative depth and a capacity to face what others avoid, sometimes through loss or upheaval.
Ketu rules it, adding a detached, spiritual, sometimes ruthless quality that strips away the inessential. The growth edge is to use the uprooting in service of truth and renewal, to destroy what is false rather than what is merely uncomfortable.
