In Hindu astrology, there are 27 nakshatras ("lunar mansions", Sanskrit: नक्षत्र, IAST: Nakṣatra), or sectors along the ecliptic. A list of them is first found in the Vedanga Jyotisha, a text dated to the final centuries BCE. The Nakṣatra system predates the influence of Hellenistic astronomy on Vedic tradition, which became prevalent from about the 2nd century CE. There are various systems of enumerating the Nakṣatra-s;[clarification needed] although there are 28 days to a sidereal month, by custom only 27 days are used, the last 28th day being considered unlucky. The following list gives the corresponding regions of sky.[1]
