According to Vedic astrology, Each nakshatra can be divided into four padas based on the location of the moon when an individual is born. The pada in which a person is born is attributed to its specific traits. Let us have a look at four padas for Krittika Nakshatra.
Let us look at the strengths and weaknesses of Krittika Nakshatra born.
People born in Krittika nakshatra are intelligent and have great analytical minds. They have good observation skills and the ability to resolve matters in less time. They are frank and say things straight from the heart. People look up to them with a leadership instinct, and in the presence of the Sun, their ruling planet, they are bound to be a leader in every activity they take up. They are mentally strong personalities, and their confidence and determination will bring a lot of success and wealth. However, leadership is highly visible when the position of the moon is in the first quarter, i.e. in Aries. They have a fighting spirit, especially for spiritual and social contributions. They try to make the world a better place through new ideas and thought processes. The natives of this nakshatra are associated with fire and hence, have the fire inside them to bring out the good in others. They are liked by everyone for their motherly, sympathetic nature. They are very interactive and have attractive personalities.
Parental instincts are highlighted in the second to the fourth quarter of the nakshatra, i.e. Taurus. A Taurus born would settle early and want to have kids in the late 30s. Under the influence of Venus, a Taurus born are elegant and stylish and inclined towards fashion and arts.
Sometimes, they take their leadership qualities very seriously, which may result in loud outbursts if someone does not agree with them. They are easily angered and show stubbornness when upset. It gets very difficult for them to control their anger at times. They lash out if people are not convinced of their opinion. In such situations, they must take a pause and remind themselves that it’s not personal. They always fight for important things and stand for the right purpose. Such people are important to bring good change in the world. But in the process, they must hold their pride and try to get the support of others in a peaceful manner. Otherwise, situations may get worse. They can be a guiding light for society until they are calm. After attaining success, they must keep in mind not to get over-ambitious and greedy. They may not be able to control their desires, but if they do, it may save them from any kind of trouble.
The male natives of this nakshatra have a medium height. A krittika nakshatra male who has the influence of Saturn has a tall body. All the males under this nakshatra have pointed noses, symmetrical eyes, heavy bodies with solid built, broad shoulders and well-developed muscles.
The male natives are very intelligent, but they are not goal oriented. They do not stay in a profession for long and easily get bored. So, for half of their life, they go by gut and interest. They leave things out of disinterest, even relationships, without analysing the merits and demerits. They are good advisors and help people find solutions for their problems, but they themselves do not have clarity in their lives. The males will be great friends for you until you upset them by interfering in their matters. They like to do things of their own will and don’t like anyone’s advice on it, even when they are going wrong.
Krittika nakshatra career for males would not be stable and fixed as they have the tendency to switch jobs if they do not find their work interesting. They keep jumping from one profession to another due to boredom. But they are never out of money as they never stay jobless. They know how to manage finances well. They put in a lot of effort and hard work if they desperately need a new job in a new domain. They will probably be travelling abroad and staying in a foreign land for work. Jobs in the government sector, doctors, and engineers are the most probable careers for the male natives of this nakshatra. Business partnerships are not suitable for the male natives of this nakshatra. But if they still choose the business line, yarn exports, pharmaceuticals, and the decorative industry will benefit them.
The male natives and their wives are lucky for each other. They do a lot of things together to maintain the spark in their relationship. But there have been situations where the male natives get too indulged in their work life that they have to face divorce or separation. At the same time, someone or other will frequently be ill in their families, which would also lead to making them stay in different places. Krittika nakshatra marriage life will see a lot of ups and downs due to family members or themselves, but the love between them will never fade.
In terms of a life partner, Krittika nakshatra male natives are highly compatible with Jyeshta nakshatra natives for long-term relationships.
The male natives of the Krittika nakshatra are carefree and do not pay attention to their health. They tend to be lazy and eat a lot of junk. They are also always on mobiles and laptops. They must keep a check on their health for weak eyesight and obesity and be alert to avoid accidents.

The female natives are sensitive and carry a lot of emotions inside. They must practise reducing the intensity of their emotions as people can exploit them and can take advantage of their situation. They love their family members, friends and a life partner, but they won’t take the pressure of doing something special for them. They are energetic if they wish to be. Otherwise, they do not tend to show their love through gestures. This disturbs them mentally as their beloved would not understand them in this aspect. They have a habit of indulging in fights and arguments. Arrogance is reflected in their personalities.
Only a few of the krittika nakshatra female natives are highly educated. They mostly tend to be housewives. But whether it is professional life or household work, they fulfil their duties like a perfect manager. They have professional careers in agriculture, fisheries and other local industries.If the females are born in the first quarter of the Krittika nakshatra in the presence of the moon, they become well-read and knowledgeable. Such females make a huge mark in society by being part of administrative services, Doctors, Engineers and Teachers.

Some of them don’t even marry. They tend to live independently, both professionally and personally. The age of 37 is a suitable time for their marriage if they wish to marry.
They will not share good family dynamics. They will lack compatibility with family members and relatives as they have their opinions and would not support any conservative belief that goes against women.
Krittika nakshatra compatibility with the female natives matches best with the natives of Shatabhisha nakshatra as their likes and dislikes are almost similar.
