The nakshatra is the segment of the sky the Moon is passing through, dividing the zodiac into 27 equal mansions of 13°20′ each. Today's nakshatra (shown above) decides the auspicious starting syllable for a baby's name and is weighed for every muhurat.
नक्षत्र वह तारामंडल है जिसमें चंद्रमा भ्रमण कर रहा है — पूरे राशिचक्र में 27 नक्षत्र होते हैं। आज का नक्षत्र नामकरण और मुहूर्त दोनों के लिए महत्वपूर्ण है।
