| The '''28 Lunar Mansions''', or more precisely ''lodgings'' ({{zh|c={{linktext|二十|八|宿}}|p=èrshí bā xiù}}) are the [[Chinese astronomy|Chinese]] and [[East Asian cultural sphere |East Asian]] form of the lunar stations. They can be considered as the equivalent to the Western [[zodiac]], although the 28 stations reflect the movement of the Moon through a [[sidereal month]] rather than the Sun in a [[tropical year]]; (cf. [[Solar term]]). In their final form, they embodied the astral forms of the [[Four Symbols]]: two real and two legendary animals important in traditional [[Chinese culture]], such as [[feng shui]]. | The '''28 Lunar Mansions''', or more precisely ''lodgings'' ({{zh|c={{linktext|二十|八|宿}}|p=èrshí bā xiù}}) are the [[Chinese astronomy|Chinese]] and [[East Asian cultural sphere |East Asian]] form of the lunar stations.

| The ''nakshatras'' (or more precisely ''nákṣatra'', <small>lit.</small> "stars") are the [[Indian astronomy|Indian]] form of lunar stations. They usually number 27 but sometimes 28 and their names are related to the most prominent constellations in each sector. According to the modern tradition they start from a point on the ecliptic precisely opposite the star [[Spica]] (Sanskrit: ''Chitrā'') and develop eastwards but the oldest traditional method was to use the Vernal Equinox point as the starting point of Ashvini Nakshatra. In classical [[Hindu mythology]], the creation of the nakshatras is attributed to [[Daksha]]. They were wives of [[Chandra]], the moon god. The nakshatras of traditional [[bhartiya astronomy]] are based on a list of 28 asterisms found in the ''[[Atharvaveda]]'' (AVŚ 19.7) and also in the ''[[Shatapatha Brahmana]]''. The first astronomical text that lists them is the ''[[Vedanga Jyotisha]]''. The stations are important parts of [[Indian astrology]]. | The ''nakshatras'' (or more precisely ''nákṣatras'', <small>lit.</small> "stars") are the [[Indian astronomy|Indian]] form of lunar stations.
