Shravana nakshatra traits

The star of listening: learned, wise in counsel and good at connecting people and ideas.

Dasha at birth

If your Moon is in Shravana, your life begins in the Moon dasha, a 10-year period; how much of it remains at birth depends on how far through Shravana the Moon had travelled.

Shravana in the Panchang

When the Moon passes through Shravana, the day takes on a movable quality, traditionally good for travel, moving and change. See today's nakshatra in the Panchang.
