Frequently asked questions
What is a nakshatra?
A nakshatra is one of 27 lunar mansions of 13°20' each. Your birth nakshatra is where the Moon sits at birth and it rules your dasha sequence.
What is a pada?
Each nakshatra has four padas of 3°20'. The pada links your nakshatra to a Navamsa sign and refines personality and career reading.
How do I find my birth star?
Enter date, time and place of birth; the tool computes the sidereal Moon longitude with Lahiri ayanamsa and returns nakshatra, pada and lord.
