According to Vedic Astrology, Nakshatra refers to the stars/constellations. The 360⁰ zodiac system is divided into 12 zodiac signs. There is a total of 27 Nakshatras in astrology, and hence the value of each star is 13⁰ 20’. In ancient times, Nakshatras are considered as a means of worshipping the divine. These 27 constellations are based on the movement of the Moon, which travels approximately 27.3 days around its orbit. Hence, the birth star of an individual is calculated based on the position of the Moon in any of these stars.

✭ Planetary Energies of the seven colors

Those seven colors of the planets become connected with the seven colors of seven Chakras of the human body. When human beings open their eyes, they cannot see the seven colors in the Planets or in the universe but they exist everywhere all around us which humans know from the Rainbow. And if human beings close their eyes, they cannot see the seven colors inside their body. But they also exist as seven colors of seven Chakras in the human body (Aura). Inside and outside, our universe and our body are full of colors.
