How to remember the nakshatras


 

We need to remember the following sequence to start with :

Chart 1

S.No.     Planets                                Dasha ( Years)   

1.            Sun                                       6

2.            Moon                                  10

3.            Mars                                    7

4.            Rahu                                    18

5.            Jupiter                                 16

6.            Saturn                                 19

7.            Mercury                              17

8.            Ketu                                     7

9.            Venus                                  20

 

It is important to remember their sequence and years.

Now we know there are 27 nakshatras, please plot them starting with KETU as follows :

Chart 2

S.No.     Planets                                Dasha ( Years)    Nakshatra

1.            Sun                                       6                            3             12           21

2.            Moon                                  10                          4             13           22

3.            Mars                                    7                            5             14           23

4.            Rahu                                    18                          6             15           24

5.            Jupiter                                 16                          7             16           25

6.            Saturn                                 19                          8             17           26          

7.            Mercury                              17                          9             18           27

8.            Ketu                                     7                            1             10           19

9.            Venus                                  20                          2             11           20

Based on above sequence we see that every planet has three nakshatras and are in sequence of original number +9,+9.

Why we started the numbering from Ketu is that the first nakshatra in First Sign Aries belongs to Ketu.

Now let us remember few things as follows :

1.      There are 12 signs

2.      There are 27 Nakshatras

3.      Each Nakshatra has 4 charans which means 108 charans

4.      108 devided by 12 signs gives us 9 charans, which means each Sign will have 9 charans.

Now let us plot the planets and their charans keeping in mind the above planet sequence against Signs.

Chart 3

S.No.     Sign                       Planet(Charan)                  Planet(Charan)                  Planet(Charan)  

1             Aries                     Ketu(4)                                Venus(4)                             Sun(1)

2.            Taurus                  Sun(3)                                  Moon(4)                             Mars(2)

3.            Gemini                 Mars(2)                               Rahu(4)                               Jupiter(3)

4.            Cancer                 Jupiter(1)                            Saturn(4)                             Mercury(4)

5             Leo                       Ketu(4)                                Venus(4)                             Sun(1)

6.            Virgo                    Sun(3)                                  Moon(4)                             Mars(2)

7.            Libra                     Mars(2)                               Rahu(4)                               Jupiter(3)

8.            Scorpio                Jupiter(1)                            Saturn(4)                             Mercury(4)

9             Saggitarius          Ketu(4)                                Venus(4)                             Sun(1)

10.         Capricorn            Sun(3)                                  Moon(4)                             Mars(2)

11.         Aquarius              Mars(2)                               Rahu(4)                               Jupiter(3)

12.         Pisces                   Jupiter(1)                            Saturn(4)                             Mercury(4)

 

 If we combine just the number sequence of chart 3 and chart 2 wherein take number 1-9 from Nakshatra sequence and s.no. from chart 2, we get the following chart for remember purpose only.

Chart 4

Signs                                                                  Planets and charan

1             5             9                                           1(4)        2(4)        3(1)

2             6             10                                         3(3)        4(4)        5(2)

3             7             11                                         5(2)        6(4)        7(3)

4             8             12                                         7(1)        8(4)        9(4)

 

Signs are starting from Aries and Planets are starting from Ketu.

 

Now let us see the nakshatras associated with each planet

Chart -5

S.No.                    Planet                   Nakshtra(1)         Nakshtra(1)         Nakshtra(1)

1                            Ketu                      1.Ashwini             10. Magha          19. Moola          

2                            Venus                   2.Bharani             11.P. Phalguni    20.P.Asadha       

3                            Sun                        3.Krittika              12.U.Phalguni     21.U.Asadha

4                            Moon                   4.Rohini               13.Hasta              22.Shravana

5                            Mars                     5.Mrigasira         14.Chitra             23.Dhanistha

6                            Rahu                     6.Ardra                 15.Swati              24.Sat Bhishaj

7                            Jupiter                  7.Punervasu        16.Vishakha        25.P.Bhadrapad

8                            Saturn                  8.Pushya              17.Anuradha       26.U.Bhadrapad

9                            Mercury               9.Ashlesha           18.Jyeshtha         27. Revati

 

Now let us understand the steps.

1.      Sequence of Planets and their years  of dasha. The sequence is same for drawing nakshatra chart as well as calculation of dasha.

2.      Sequence of Signs and their starting point for nakshatras which is ketu.

3.      Mark 4 charans of each planet by sequence against signs considering nine charan in a sign.

4.      Remember three nakshatra associated with each planet.

I think the above will help for easy remember.

Please suggest any better option.
