Hi!
so im reading on some Vedic Astrology and got the book called"Nakshatras" which displays like a seperate Zodiac but it only regards the moon, throughout our Zodiac there is 27 different mansions which basically is a sign of their own, and each nakshatra covers 13,20 degree of the zodiac.
they all are in star constellations i think, have their own Deity and planetary ruler along with traits.
the book tells a system of 28 lunar mansions was used in the Middle east and in china also. the book also talks briefly that the ancient celts had a myth about a Moon king with 27 star wives.
i will see if this is true and learn more, but it is quite fashinating to see older astrology putting so much emphesis on the moon to create seperate mansions for it.
why cant we find this in the western Astrology? have anyone read about this, do you think its pointless or agree with it? when im reading about mine it makes sence in a way, as it displays some of the traits my western moon does in my chart. but basically what is your thoughts?
if anybody wants to know, the book is called "Nakshatras" by Dennis M. Harness, with an introduction by Dr. David Frawley.
Cheers..
