Nakshatra Calculator — Hindu Lunar Mansions
Discover your birth nakshatra with Heavenly Insight's Hindu nakshatra calculator. In Vedic astrology (Jyotisha), the 27 nakshatras are the lunar mansions — the stations the Moon visits as it travels around the ecliptic. Each nakshatra spans 13 degrees and 20 minutes of the sidereal zodiac, and the Moon passes through one roughly every 27.3 days. Your birth nakshatra reveals the Moon's exact mansion at the moment you were born, shedding light on your mind, emotions, and inner nature.
Enter your birth date and time to calculate your nakshatra using the Lahiri (Chitrapaksha) ayanamsa. Each of the 27 nakshatras — from Ashwini to Revati — carries a ruling planet (graha), a presiding deity, a yoni (animal nature), a gana (temperament), and a pada (quarter). Explore the personality, strengths, challenges, cosmic mission, and nakshatra compatibility for your lunar mansion with authentic Vedic depth. For entertainment purposes.
