What is Hastham Nakshatra?

Hastham's lord is the Moon (Chandran), and all of it lies in Kanni. Those born under Hastham use these dates for an archanai on their birth-star day each month. Each date here is the day the star holds at midday; when it holds at two middays running, both days are shown.

What can you do on Hastham star day?

The monthly Hastham is not a fast day. For those born under Hastham it is the birth-star day that comes round once a month: a visit to the temple and a janma nakshatra archanai in their own name and star at the shrine of your chosen or family deity is all it asks.

  • Bathe in the morning and light the lamp at home
  • An archanai at the shrine of your chosen or family deity, giving your name and star
  • If you can, feed someone or give a small gift

Where your family does it differently, follow your family.
