What is a Nakshatra?
In Vedic astrology, the zodiac is divided into 27 Nakshatras (lunar constellations), each spanning 13 degrees and 20 minutes. Your birth Nakshatra is determined by the position of the Moon at the time of your birth and is one of the most important factors in Kundali analysis.
Each Nakshatra has 4 Padas (quarters), and the specific Pada you are born under further refines your personality traits and life path. The ruling planet (Lord) of your Nakshatra influences your temperament, career inclinations, and relationships.

- ✦Identifies auspicious timings (Muhurat) for important events
- ✦Guides remedies and gemstone recommendations
