What are Nakshatras?
Nakshatra means 'that which never decays', and Nakshatras are Lunar Mansions or constellations. Twelve zodiac signs are contained in a 360-degree circle, and there are 27 Nakshatras that are divided into 27 sections in the same 360-degree circle.

Additionally, this section of 13.20' is further divided into four parts called padas, and each pada is assigned to a zodiac sign. Thus, we have 12 zodiac signs and 27 nakshatras.
