BharaniAries 13°20′–26°40′

What Bharani means in Vedic astrology

Bharani is the 2nd of the 27 Nakshatra — the lunar mansions that divide the sidereal zodiac into finer bands than the twelve Rāsi. It spans Aries 13°20′–26°40′, is ruled by Venus, and is presided over by the deity Yama.

Its symbol is the yoni, and it belongs to the Manushya gana. Your Nakshatra is determined by the exact degree of the Moon at your birth, which makes it far more specific than your moon sign alone — and it is what drives your Vimshottari Dasha, the timing system at the heart of Jyotish prediction.
