- 阿萨多
- (sa) aṣāḍhā, is a double (sa) nakṣatra (two lunar mansions) associated with 箕, stars in Sagittarius; this form is said to be (sa) pūrvāṣāḍhā and is intp. as 軫, i.e. stars in Corvus, but these stars are in the Indian constellation Hastā, the Hand, which may be the more correct transliteration; cf. 阿沙陀.
