The 27 Nakshatras

Discover Your Birth Star: The Vedic Map of Who You Are

Long before the world counted twelve zodiac signs, Vedic astrologers read the sky by 27 stars. One of them is yours.

At the moment you were born, the Moon stood in one of the 27 nakshatras. For thousands of years, people of the Indian subcontinent have used them to name a child, match a marriage and choose the right hour to begin. Your birth star says more about you than your sun sign ever could.

  • Know yourself. The nature, gifts and blind spots written into your birth star.
  • Know the people you love. Look up a partner, a child or a friend. See them clearly.
  • Know your timing. The stars show when to begin, and when to wait.

A complete course, if you want one. Read it in order, one star at a time, and you finish with a working knowledge of all 27 nakshatras: symbols, deities, planetary lords, padas, compatibility, dashas and muhurta. Or just begin with yours.

27 chapters · 27 symbol illustrations · classical sources, checked at source

Capt Anirvan Chakravarti has flown airliners for more than 25 years. He reads the sky the way a pilot reads instruments: carefully, and with every source checked.
