🌙 Moon Nakshatra in Vedic Astrology – The Key to Your Mind & Destiny
In Vedic Astrology, the Nakshatra (lunar mansion) in which your Moon is placed at birth is one of the most important factors in your chart. It reveals:
✅ Your personality and emotions
✅ Your subconscious mind and thought patterns
✅ Your destiny and karmic path
✅ Your compatibility with others
There are 27 Nakshatras, each spanning 13°20′ in the zodiac. The Nakshatra of your Moon (also called Janma Nakshatra) plays a crucial role in your life journey.
