**Conjunction of the Moon and *Nakṣatras***
When the moon is in conjunction with a *nakṣatra* in the eastern part of the sky, it will be in conjunction with the *nakṣatra* for 9 *muhūrtas* and 77 parts of a *muhūrta*. The conjunction will then be in the *anupariyatṭa* state. When the conjunction is in the *anupariyatṭa* state, it will be in the *vippajahaḍa* state until it becomes a *vigayajogī*.
When the moon is in conjunction with a *nakṣatra* in the eastern part of the sky, it will be in conjunction with the *nakṣatra* for 30 *muhūrtas*. The conjunction will then be in the *anupariyatṭa* state. When the conjunction is in the *anupariyatṭa* state, it will be in the *vippajahaḍa* state until it becomes a *vigayajogī*.
This should be applied to the 15th, 30th, and 45th *muhūrtas*. It should be said that the moon is in conjunction with the *nakṣatra* until the *Uttaraṣāḍhā* *nakṣatra*.
