As per Indian astrology, zodiac is divided into 27 Nakshatras or lunar constellations. Each constellation covers 13 degrees, 20 minutes. The calculation of Nakshatras starts with Ashwini Nakshatra 0 degrees of Aries and ends on 30 degrees of Pisces covered by Revati Nakshatra. Abhijit is 28th Nakshatra.
The most common practice that parents follow to name a child is based on the quarter of the Nakshatra (27 Constellations or the janma nakshatras) occupied by the radical Moon i.e. the Moon position at the time of the birth. Use our Nakshatra Birth Star Calculator to find Nakshatra of your baby.
