Later some Indian savants dropped the Nakshatra named Abhijit to reduce the number of divisions to 27, but the Chinese retained all of their original 28В lunar mansions. This is sometimes described as an inaccurate estimate of our modern sidereal period of 27.3В days, but using the ancient Indian calendar with Vedic months of 30В days and a daily movement of the Moon of 13В degrees, this early designation of a sidereal month of 831 Muhurtas or 27.7В days is very precise. The 28В mansions of the 360В° lunar zodiac total 831В Muhurtas or 27.7В days. Hindu texts note there were 16В Nakshatras of 30В Muhurtas, 6 of 45В Muhurtas, 5 of 15В Muhurtas and one of 6В Muhurtas.

Weixing Nui provides a list of the extent of the original 28В Nakshatras expressed in Muhurtas (with one Muhurta = 48В minutes of arc). In India and China the original 28В lunar mansions were not equal. But the 28В Nakshatra were chosen at a time when the Vedic month was recognised as having exactly 30В days. It is noted above that with the older tradition of 28В Nakshatras each equal segment would subtend 12.85В degrees or 12В°В 51вЂІ. The Surya Siddhantha concisely specifies the coordinates of the twenty seven Nakshatras. :вЂЉ179 However the Abhijit nakshatra becomes important while deciding on the timing of an auspicious event. In the process, the Nakshatra Abhijit was left out without a portion. segment) subtending 13В° 20вЂІ (as opposed to 12В° 51 + 3вЃ„ 7вЂІ in the case of 28В segments). When these were mapped into equal divisions of the ecliptic, a division of 27В portions was adopted since that resulted in a cleaner definition of each portion (i.e. In Hindu astronomy, there was an older tradition of 28В Nakshatras which were used as celestial markers in the heavens. Jessie Mercay in her research on Surya Siddhanta. Hence, the stars are more like numbers on a clock through which the hands of time pass (the moon). The relationship to the stars really has to do with the periodicity with which the Moon travels over time and through space past the field of the specific stars called nakshatras. This 27-day time cycle has been taken to mean a particular group of stars. They are personified as daughters of Daksha and as wives of Chandra known as the Moon God (who reluctantly married the 26 other nakshatras on Daksha's request even though he was only interested to marry Rohini), or alternatively the daughters of Kashyapa. In classical Hindu scriptures ( Mahabharata, Harivamsa), the creation of the nakshatras is attributed to Daksha. The first astronomical text that lists them is the Vedanga Jyotisha. This version may have been called MeshДЃdi or the ' start of Aries'. The starting point for the nakshatras according to Vedas is 'Kritika' (it has been argued because the Pleiades may have started the year at the time the Vedas were compiled, presumably at the vernal equinox), but, in more recent compilations, the start of the nakshatras list is the point on the ecliptic directly opposite to the star Spica called ChitrДЃ in Sanskrit, which would be AshvinД«, an asterism that is part of the modern constellation Aries, and these compilations therefore may have been compiled during the centuries when the sun was passing through the area of the constellation Aries at the time of the vernal equinox. Their names are related to a prominent star or asterisms in or near the respective sectors. A nakshatra is one of 28 (sometimes also 27) sectors along the ecliptic. Nakshatra ( Sanskrit: а¤Ёа¤•аҐЌа¤·а¤¤аҐЌа¤°а¤®аҐЌ, romanized: Nakб№Јatram) is the term for lunar mansion in Hindu astrology and Indian Astronomy.
