Why Your Nakshatra Matters

⏳

Dasha Lord

Your Janma Nakshatra determines which planet rules your first Vimshottari Dasha period at birth — the starting point of all life timing.

🧬

Temperament

Each Nakshatra belongs to a Gana (Deva/Manav/Rakshasa) and has a specific quality (Dharma/Artha/Kama/Moksha). This shapes your natural personality.

💫

Compatibility

Nakshatra matching (Ashtakoot) is the primary method of marriage compatibility analysis. Your birth star determines Yoni, Gana, Nadi, and other compatibility factors.

🎯

Muhurta

Knowing your Nakshatra allows you to avoid your Janma Nakshatra, Karma Nakshatra (10th), and Vainashika Nakshatra (23rd) for important new starts.
