Each Nakshatra and the Colour They Should Avoid Wearing Too Much

Not every color is a vibe for every star. Just like some songs don’t belong in a sad playlist, some colors can drain energy, invite chaos, or simply misalign with a Nakshatra’s frequency. Here’s the cosmic fashion no-no list — what each Nakshatra should tone down or avoid altogether when dressing to impress the universe.
Ashwini – Avoid: Grey
Too dull for this spark plug of a Nakshatra. Grey dims Ashwini’s quick instincts and fiery aura.
Bharani – Avoid: Deep Blue
It invites overthinking and emotional turbulence — the opposite of Bharani’s bold, intuitive energy.
Krittika – Avoid: Black
Krittika already burns hot. Black adds weight, causing mood swings and power clashes.
Rohini – Avoid: Red
Too much red can overstimulate this sensual moon-child. It throws off their charm and balance.
Mrigashira – Avoid: Dark Green
It muddies their curious, airy energy, dragging them into loops of confusion or self-doubt.
Ardra – Avoid: Yellow
Too bright, too soon. Yellow overstimulates Ardra’s already intense emotional currents.
Punarvasu – Avoid: Neon Colours
This dual-natured Nakshatra thrives in peace. Neon distracts and fragments their clarity.
Pushya – Avoid: Orange
Pushya’s nurturing calm doesn’t mesh with orange’s intense fire. It can cause irritability.
Ashlesha – Avoid: White
This mystical, secretive sign feels exposed and energetically scattered in too much white.
Magha – Avoid: Purple
Though royal, purple can provoke ego flares and drama in this already power-centered nakshatra.
Purva Phalguni – Avoid: Brown
Too grounded, too dry. It dulls their romanticism and party-animal tendencies.
Uttara Phalguni – Avoid: Crimson
Overactivates their drive and can lead to obsession over results and validation.
Hasta – Avoid: Black
Drains their optimism and makes their wit feel forced or misunderstood.
Chitra – Avoid: Pastels
Chitra needs bold, dramatic colour. Pastels mute their sparkle and confidence.
Swati – Avoid: Dark Brown
This wind-driven Nakshatra loses spontaneity and joy in heavy, earthen shades.
Vishakha – Avoid: Light Blue
It calms them too much — to the point of complacency, when they thrive on ambition.
Anuradha – Avoid: Bright Red
Too emotionally triggering; ignites restlessness in an already intense soul.
Jyeshtha – Avoid: Beige
Their aura needs dominance, not neutrality. Beige makes them feel invisible.
Mula – Avoid: Gold
Despite its royalty, gold enhances karmic clashes and drama for Mula.
Purva Ashadha – Avoid: Greyish Blue
It kills their spark and invites boredom — their ultimate enemy.
Uttara Ashadha – Avoid: Teal
Too mellow, it softens their leadership energy and mutes their clarity.
Shravana – Avoid: Maroon
Can make them overly nostalgic, distracted, or emotionally stuck.
Dhanishta – Avoid: Pink
Too fluffy for their action-oriented, rhythm-loving energy. They crave edge, not fluff.
Shatabhisha – Avoid: Green
May cause emotional fog or imbalance — not ideal for this futuristic, healing mind.
Purva Bhadrapada – Avoid: Turquoise
It blurs their deeper insights and drains their spiritual intensity.
Uttara Bhadrapada – Avoid: Bright Orange
Too jarring; interrupts their calm, old-soul wisdom and meditative vibe.
Revati – Avoid: Black
Too heavy for this soft, dreamy nakshatra. It can pull them into melancholy or over-sacrifice.
