Hastaहस्त
Hasta is the thirteenth Nakshatra (10°–23°20' Kanya), symbolized by an open hand and ruled by Savitr, a solar deity associated with skillful action. Its Yoni (compatibility animal) is Buffalo, its Gana is Deva, and its Nadi is Aadi (Vata).
Hasta appears on three of this app's four Muhurat Search "good" activity lists — vehicle purchase, Griha Pravesh (housewarming), and new job — but is not on the "property purchase" good list.
Hasta's Visha Ghati begins at the 22nd ghati (of 60) — roughly the first third of the Nakshatra's span.
Hasta is ruled by Savitr, a solar deity associated with skillful, purposeful action and craftsmanship. Its symbol is an open hand, representing dexterity, the ability to grasp opportunity, and hands-on skill. Its ruling planet (Nakshatra lord, used in Vimshottari Dasha sequencing) is the Moon.
Classical texts associate Hasta with practical skill, resourcefulness, and hands-on ability — people with a strong Hasta influence are traditionally described as clever with their hands, adaptable, and capable of turning skill into tangible results, whether in craft, trade, or healing arts.
Per the traditional naming-syllable table this app uses for the Baby Names feature, a child born under Hasta's four Padas is traditionally named starting with "Pu", "Sha", "Na", or "Tha" respectively.
