Starting syllable

Namkaran from janma nakshatra

The traditional North Indian table gives four starting sounds (pada) for each of the 27 nakshatras. Pick a nakshatra and pada, or generate a kundli so we read the Moon for you.

Janma nakshatra is the Moon's nakshatra at birth. Pada is which quarter of that nakshatra the Moon had reached.

Enter the civil birth date, local time, and city. We read the Moon (janma nakshatra and pada) with the same kundli engine, then show the traditional starting sound and sample names.
