01

What nakshatras are

Nakshatras are the 27 lunar mansions in Vedic astrology. They describe a subtler psychological and timing layer than the zodiac sign alone.

02

Why exact time matters

The ascendant and houses move quickly. Even a small birth-time error can change the rising sign, pada, and house placement, which shifts the key nakshatra picture.

03

How we calculate

This module uses the sidereal zodiac, Jyotish mode, Lahiri ayanamsha, and deterministic computation without generative interpretation.
