Krittika Nakshatra — Ruler, Deity, Symbol and Meaning

Sharp, purifying clarity that cuts through illusion — often described as the most incisive nakshatra. Krittika natives tend to see flaws and inefficiencies clearly and say so directly, which can read as critical but usually comes from a genuine standard of excellence. Strong-willed, with real leadership capacity once tempered by patience.
