Frequently Asked Questions
What is today's Nakshatra (01 May 2026)?
Today's Nakshatra is Swati (சுவாதி), ending at 4:35 AM, May 02 (Chennai/IST).
How does Thirukanitham calculate Nakshatra differently from Vakya?
Thirukanitham (Drik) uses the actual astronomical position of the Moon (using Swiss Ephemeris with Lahiri Ayanamsha) to determine the precise Nakshatra and its end time. Vakya uses traditional fixed-cycle calculations which may differ by 1–2 degrees.
