Vimshottari in Sanskrit stands for the number 120. [4] Vimshottari Dasha assumes that the maximum duration of life of an individual human being is 120 Solar sidereal years which is the aggregate duration of all nine planetary periods i.e. Ketu 7, Venus 20, Sun 6, Moon 10, Mars 7, Rahu 18, Jupiter 16, Saturn 19 and Mercury 17, in the order of their operation.
It stands to reason that during the original naming of these months—whenever that happened—they were indeed based on the nakshatras that coincided with them in some manner. The modern Indian national calendar is a solar calendar, much like the Gregorian calendar wherein solstices and equinoxes fall on the same date(s) every year.
Rahu and Ketu became bitter enemies with Surya (Sun) and Chandra (Moon) for exposing his deception and leading to his decapitation. [6] For this, Rahu pursues them and attempts to consume the Sun and Moon. [7] [8] Since Rahu is the head without the body, the Sun and Moon exit from his throat when he tries to swallow them.
Rahu and Ketu correspond to the points where the moon crosses the ecliptic plane (known as the ascending and descending nodes of the moon). Classically known in Indian and Western astrology as the "head and tail of the dragon", these planets are represented as a serpent-bodied demon beheaded by the Sudarshan Chakra of Vishnu after attempting to ...
According to the Tajika System, [6] that in practice is applied more to Varshaphal (Annual Chart) or a query-chart (Horary astrology), the planetary aspect on the 5th and the 9th houses from itself is very strong, openly friendly and helpful, e.g. if the Sun is in Aries and Jupiter is in Leo both will aspect each other producing very favourable ...
Ardra Nakshatra is governed by Rahu, the North Node of the Moon, which adds intensity and transformative qualities to the influence of this Nakshatra.The ruling deity of Ardra Nakshatra is Rudra, a form of Lord Shiva known for his destructive yet regenerative powers. [2]
Ketu (Sanskrit: केतु, IAST: Ketú) is the descending (i.e. 'south') lunar node in Vedic, or Hindu astrology. [2] [3] [4] Personified as a deity, Rahu and Ketu are considered to be the two halves of the immortal asura (demon) Svarbhanu, who was beheaded by the god Vishnu.
The timing of sunrise is marked in the panchangam (almanac) and 12 hours of the day is divided into eight equal parts (say 06:00 a.m. IST to 6:00 p.m. IST). The period of rāhukāla does not occur in the first part of the day and the rest of the seven parts are attributed to other different parts of the day. [ 2 ]
