What are the 27 Nakshatras?

The 27 Nakshatras are lunar mansions — equal segments of the Moon’s path across the ecliptic. Your birth Nakshatra is determined by the Moon’s position at birth and is central to naming, compatibility, muhurat, and Vimshottari Dasha in Jyotish.

How does Nakshatra affect personality?

Classical texts associate each Nakshatra with a deity, symbol, and temperament. The Moon’s Nakshatra colours emotional style, while the full chart (lagna, grahas, houses) refines the picture. Weekly guidance often starts from Janma Nakshatra as a simple, stable anchor.

How do I find my Nakshatra?

Enter your birth date, time, and place. Daanyam computes the Moon’s sidereal longitude with a precision ephemeris and maps it to one of the 27 Nakshatras, including pada (quarter) where applicable.
