The study of Nakshatras is one of the most fundamental pillars of Vedic astrology. Nakshatra comes from the Sanskrit words meaning “indestructible” (Na - Not, Kshatra - destructible). It can also be translated as map of the sky that protects us (Naksha - map of the sky, Tra - protection). Understanding nakshatras can help us in realizing our true destiny that is held within our stars.
