Nakshatras their Lords, Deities, Gana, Purpose and Caste

Vedic astrology has a unique system of prediction that's based on Moon's position in a given Nakshatra (Lunar mansion).

In all there are 27 Nakshtras. Every Nakshatra covers 13⁰ 20’ of the zodiac. Each Nakshatra is the head of a particular group of stars.

The 12 signs i.e. Aries, Taurus, Gemini, Cancer, Leo, Virgo, Libra, Scorpio, Sagittarius, Capricorn, Aquarius, Pisces are divided into 27 Nakshatra zones. When Moon traverses the 12 signs, it passes through 1 of the Nakshatra. When we were born, the Nakshatra in which Moon was situated at that time is called our Janma Nakshatra (Birth Nakshatra).
