Anuradha is nakshatra number 17 of the 27 lunar mansions in Vedic astrology, spanning 213.33° of the zodiac in 13°20' steps. Its planetary lord is Saturn and its presiding deity is Mitra.
The Moon's position in Anuradha at birth shapes the Vimshottari Mahadasha sequence — a Anuradha birth begins life in the Saturn mahadasha, with the balance of that period decided by how far the Moon had travelled through the nakshatra.
