What is a Nakshatra?
The 27 lunar mansions
A nakshatra is one of 27 segments of the zodiac (each 13°20'), marking where the Moon sits. Your birth (Janma) nakshatra is a core signature of a Vedic chart.
Padas and ruling planets
Each nakshatra has 4 padas (quarters) and a ruling planet in the Vimshottari dasha cycle — which sets the timing of your life periods.
