Nakshatra :-
Looking at the daily movement of Moon, sages also identified 27 constellations around the celestial called Ashwini, Bharani etc. They are separated by 360°/27= 13°20'. Every day Moon crosses over one constellation.Start of Ashwini match with the start of first sign 'Aries'. From earth we see a celestial body passing over a sign, this helps us know the location of that body. In astronomy we define planet as a celestial body which revolved round the Sun and a body which revolves around a planet is called a satellite. Sun is termed as a star. In astrology planet is defined differently. Since man lives on earth and we want to studies effect of celestial bodies on human being, we study the motion of celestial bodies with
respect to earth i.e. we take earth in center and measure position of bodies around it, including. Sun, Moon and other planets. To measure the position we take far placed stars as fixed and use them to know the coordinates/position of the other celestial bodies. In astrology we define a planet an any celestial body revolving round the earth; thus Sun & Moon are consider as planets for the purpose of astrology.
