The 27 Lunar Mansions

The nakṣatras divide the zodiac into 27 numbered wedges of 13°20′ — the finest-grained layer of the chart. The tinted inner ring marks the 12 signs by element (fire red, earth green, air yellow, water blue). Move over a wedge to preview a mansion’s lord, deity, and span in the centre, then click it for the full profile and every planetary placement within it.
