The 27 nakshatras in Vedic astrology
The 27 nakshatras divide the zodiac into lunar mansions of 13°20′ each, every one with its own deity, symbol and ruling graha. Each page goes through one nakshatra in depth: its nature, its four padas, the Moon there, the dasha it starts and how it matches with the others.
