Constellation actual star names enclosed Punarvasu and Pusyami

[Guest guest]

Dear Shri Dhira Krsna dasa

 

Punarvasu: b Geminorium: 5 stars incl Castor & Pollux, the 2 brightest

heads of the twins: 20°00 Ge to 3°19 Cn

Pushya: d Cancri (Asellus Australis): 3°20Cn to 16°39Cn

 

Please look at any sky-chart, eg csky, & u can locate them, as I have

provided the Bayer designations above also. Please note that the actual

degrees mentioned & commonly indicated are not the EXACT beginnings &

endings of the actual physical constellations, but just contain them. Just

as the 12 zodiacal constellations dont exactly start/ end at 30 degree

intervals in the sky.

 

I am providing below the Bayer & common names for all 27 nakshatras (28th

Abhijit= Vega). It is attached as a Word doc (1 page) - sent from my

office, so no virus-fear. On pasting here, format goes hay-wire

 

Regards

 

Nandan
