The Ascendant or Lagna is one of the most important placements in Vedic astrology as it sets the tone for the entire birth chart. When the Ascendant is placed in Mula Nakshatra, there is a great emphasis on transforming and evolving personal identity through life experiences. Mula is known as the root or foundation of knowledge, which manifests as deep introspection and a search for truth. Individuals with this placement are spiritual seekers, who often face significant upheavals throughout their lives that transform their outlook on life.
