Hasta Nakshatra — Transit Significance
Hasta is the nakshatra of the craftsman, the healer, the artisan. Where other nakshatras think, strategize, or feel, Hasta acts through the hands. Moon in Virgo marks these natives as emotionally attuned to practical service. They are clever, quick, and extraordinarily competent. The problem: they underrate this competence, always looking for something they cannot yet do rather than perfecting what they already can.
