If the Moon was in Shatabhisha at birth, this is your birth nakshatra and the Vimshottari dasha begins with the Rahu mahadasha, which lasts 18 years. Traditionally the Rahu period is associated with ambition, reinvention and an appetite for the unfamiliar.
Traditional themes of this nakshatra: healing, privacy, independence. These are general pointers for one nakshatra and should be read together with the planets in the whole chart.
