Astrology remains an important facet in the lives of many Hindus. In Hindu culture, newborns are traditionally named based on astrological charts, and astrological concepts are pervasive in the organization of the calendar and holidays as well as in many areas of life, such as in making decisions made about marriage, opening a new business, and moving into a new home.
Hindu parents often consult an astrologist to determine the name for their children, one of the elements they use to help to determine their name is their Nakshatra or their "lunar mansion", one of 28 sectors along the ecliptic.
For fun and conversation, if you'd like to do a little research yourself before the event, you can go to http://www.prokerala.com/astrology/nakshatra-finder/ and read up on the traits that your Nakshatra reveals you have! Don't forget to use the advanced feature to enter the actual coordinates of your birthplace!
