There are 27 Nakshatras in total, and some are classified as Tikshna (sharp or harmful) Nakshatras such as:

• Ashwini
• Arudra
• Ashlesha
• Magha
• Jyeshta
• Moola
• Revati

Performing Nakshatra Japam removes the negative karmic effects and helps harness the positive energy associated with the ruling deity of that Nakshatra.
