Nakshatra wheel
The nakshatra wheel plots all 27 nakshatras on the sidereal-zodiac—a circular map of mansion boundaries for quick visual comparison.
Reading the wheel
- Each segment is 13°20′; labels follow the Vimshottari sequence (Ashwini → Revati).
- Compare graha longitudes to see which mansion they occupy; near boundaries, verify exact degrees in
vedic.chart_ext. - Moon at a glance: see moon-nakshatra and moon-in-chart.
- Padas: quarters within a mansion—pada.
