In Vedic astrology, Janma Nakshatra (birth star) is one of the most significant astrological elements in a person’s Kundali (horoscope). Nakshatras are a group of 27 constellations that are used to divide the zodiac into smaller segments.

At the time of a person’s birth, the position of the moon in one of the 27 nakshatras is recorded. The nakshatra in which the moon is located at the time of birth is known as the Janma Nakshatra or birth star.

Each Janma Nakshatra is associated with a particular deity, symbol, and energy, and it is believed that the nakshatra can provide insights into a person’s personality, characteristics, and life events. The nakshatras are also used to determine auspicious times for various events and ceremonies throughout a person’s life.

Janma Nakshatra is considered an essential element in Vedic astrology, and many people consult astrologers to understand the influences of their birth star and make informed decisions about various aspects of their life. It is also used for horoscope matching in marriages, as it is believed that the compatibility of the Janma Nakshatras of the bride and groom can provide insights into their compatibility and the likelihood of a successful marriage.
