Extreme’ is the one word which sums up Bharani’s essential nature and functioning.It swings between polar opposites like ignorance and wisdom, maturity and immaturity,life and death. Bharani represents the desire of life. Just like a child wants to experience all of its surroundings, Bharani natives have a desire to experience their surroundings to the fullest.
