About Shravana Nakshatra
Shravana, meaning 'hearing' or 'listening,' is one of the most spiritually significant nakshatras, associated with the power of learning through listening and divine connection. Ruled by the Moon and governed by Lord Vishnu, the preserver of the universe, Shravana represents the sacred act of receiving knowledge. The three footprints symbolize Vishnu's Vamana avatar, who covered the three worlds in three steps. Located in Capricorn, this nakshatra combines spiritual receptivity with practical worldly achievement.
