Shravana
Also called: shravana nakshatra
Shravana, the 22nd of the 27 nakshatras (lunar mansions), running from 10°00' Makara (Capricorn) to 23°20' Makara (Capricorn) in the sidereal zodiac. Its symbol is the ear or three footprints. Its presiding deity is Vishnu, the preserver, bringing listening, learning, and the connecting thread. Its ruling planet is the Moon, so someone born with the Moon here begins life in the Moon's dasha (planetary period). Its themes are listening, learning, connection. Classically it is a movable (chara) nakshatra, good for travel, change and anything meant to move on.
