The Moon completes the 27 mansions in about 27.3 days, so a Hasta day comes round roughly once a month and lasts about a day.
What a Hasta Moon-day is like
Hasta is a deva nakshatra — in panchang terms an auspicious, light day, classically favoured for beginnings, travel, ceremonies, and anything you want to start on a harmonious note. Its temperament runs to skill, craft, dexterity, under the rulership of Moon.
