JYESTHA is a rakshasa or lower nature star,  forceful and sharp in nature.  Jyestha means "the chief," or "the seniormost," and it confers upon a person born under its influence the talent to achieve executive positions.  Such a person gets what they want.  This star is ruled by the chief demigod, Lord Indra, and he bestows the power to accomplish things skillfully.

             When this star is on the ascendant, the person is a leader, troubled by kinsmen, intent on dharma or on one's objective, having many children or many friends around, and honored or in the company of honored persons.  Externally, such a person is smooth and respectable, but internally  has loose morals and much passion. 

             When the Moon tenants this star, we get a contented, virtuous, and very irritable character.

To Jyestha belongs battle heroes, influential persons and those noted for pedigree, wealth, fame, thieves, kings intent on conquest, and commanders.
