Nakshatra, pada and rashi

Raka starts with the syllable Ra (रा), which the Avakahada chakra gives to Chitra pada 3, in Tula (Libra) rashi. By tradition it suits a child whose Moon was in that pada at birth.

The fit comes from the name's first sound only; the Moon's nakshatra pada at birth is calculated in the Kundli.

Name number (numerology)

In the Chaldean system the letters of “Raka” add up to 6, which reduces to 6; Indian numerology associates 6 with Venus (Shukra).

Numerology is a traditional belief system, not a calculation of the sky; other spellings give other numbers. Numerology calculator
