ASTRONOMICAL NAMES

BOTH VEDIC AND KP SYSTEM ARE BASED ON NAKASHATRA WHICH ARE DERIVED FROM A VIEW THAT

The zodiac according to Indian Astrology comprises of 360 degrees. There are 27 Nakshatras or constellations in it. Therefore, the value of each constellation is 13 degrees and 20 minutes when measured from the fixed initial point. These 27 Nakshatras(stars) complete the entire circle of 360 degrees of the zodiac.A forecast based on the transit/ correlation/inter - relation of planets in relation to the Nakshatras is more accurate than the results predicted on the basis of any other system.
