After every cosmic destruction (Pralaya), only Shesha remains, hence the name 'Ananta (Infinite)'. Its thousand-headed canopy shelters countless worlds.
Vedic Astrology and the Synergy of the Nine Planetary Deities
Represents the Ashlesha nakshatra in Vedic astrology and deep subconscious power, corresponding to the coiled serpent Kundalini at the root chakra.
Spiritual Symbolism and Chakra Energy Tuning
Symbolizes the primordial energy within humans that remains unawakened. When Kundalini rises through the central channel and pierces the seven chakras, the practitioner, like Shesha, carries the cosmic power and transcends the illusions of birth and death.
