5. How this was calculated

The Moon’s geocentric ecliptic longitude was computed for the exact moment of birth using the truncated ELP-2000/82 lunar series (Meeus, Astronomical Algorithms, chapter 47), then converted to a sidereal position by subtracting the Lahiri ayanamsa — the standard used by the Indian government’s Rashtriya Panchang. That sidereal longitude was 166.0986 degrees, which places the Moon in Hasta, pada 2.

We do not ask you to take the arithmetic on trust. Our implementation is checked against NASA JPL’s Horizons ephemeris (DE441) at eleven instants spanning 1900 to 2099, and the largest disagreement anywhere in that range is 0.0121 degrees — about one 275th of a pada. That check is part of our automated test suite, so it is re-measured whenever the code changes.

We publish that number instead of claiming exactness, because it is honest and because it is not the number that limits your chart: a birth time recorded to the nearest minute already carries about 0.01 degrees of uncertainty on its own, and one remembered as “around six in the morning” carries nearly 0.3 degrees. The astronomy is not the weak link — the birth record is.

What this is, and what it is not. Nakshatra-based naming is a cultural and religious tradition, not a scientific claim, and we present it as one. The astronomy is measured; the interpretation is tradition. The name you choose is yours. We have given you the traditional constraints, the real meanings, and honest data — the decision belongs to your family.
