Krittika Nakshatra
🌙 What is a Nakshatra?

In Vedic (Jyotisha) astrology, Nakshatras are the Moon’s 27 lunar mansions—fixed star clusters the Moon crosses roughly every 24 hours. They offer precise insight into emotional patterns, timing, and inner growth.
  • Anchored to the stars: Nakshatras don’t shift with the seasons. Each is tied to a stable star group in the sidereal zodiac
  • Mind mapping: Since the Moon rules the mind, your Janma Nakshatra (birth Moon) reveals your emotional blueprint, memory, and instincts
  • Built-in timekeepers: Nakshatras drive the 120-year Vimshottari Dasa system, support Muhurta (timing decisions), and guide compatibility through Porutham

Why Nakshatras Matter?

  1. Life timing: Your birth Nakshatra sets a planetary sequence that defines when major themes unfold
  2. Emotional detail: They show how you relate, process emotions, handle pressure, and move through change
  3. Daily clarity: Tracking the Moon's transit through Nakshatras refines your rituals, schedules, and decision-making
