Here is a sharing about one of the root aspects of Vedic (Hindu) Astrology. It is the descriptions of the Nakshaatrs, the 27 lunar wives. The following information comes from.my favorite jyotish(vedic astrologer), AnandaShree Astrology by Kari Fields.

WHAT IS A NAKSHATRA?
Superimposed over the 12 signs of the Zodiac,
are 27 star constellations that hold great
symbolic meaning for Vedic Astrology.
These 27 sections of the sky -- the Nakshatras -
comprise the Nakshatra Wheel. The star
constellations within and close by these sections are the Nakshatras.
In Indian mythology, the Nakshatras symbolize
the Moon’s 27 wives – the lunar shaktis
(feminine energies).
Since the Moon circles around the earth (and
the Nakshatra Wheel) about once every 27
days, the moon transits a different Nakshatra
each day.
Each of the 27 Nakshatras has distinct
characteristics, special talents, and is ruled by
the power of a particular Vedic deity.
(*There is a 28th Nakshatra called Abhijit, but to
standardize and create equal divisions it is not commonly used.)
The Nakshatras are just one small branch of a vast tree ofknowledge within Vedic Astrology.
