People next to you actually grow
Counted the most auspicious of the 27. You have a gift for growing others, and you grow alongside them. Not being in a hurry is your power.
Mythology and origins
Pushya is ruled by Brihaspati (Jupiter), teacher of the gods — the one who lent them wisdom whenever they were in trouble. That is why it is counted the most auspicious of the 27. In India, the day Pushya rises is still chosen to begin important undertakings.
It sits in the middle of Cancer. The name means "to nourish," and its symbol is a cow’s udder or a lotus.
So tradition sees this star as one who raises and teaches others and grows alongside them. Its steadiness and lack of hurry are read as coming from the teacher’s star.

Where the Moon was
In India, where the Moon stood at the moment of birth matters most. If the Sun is what shows on the outside, the Moon is how the mind moves. The highlighted section above is The Teacher's Lotus — the place this person's mind returns to by default.
