ZODIAC, SIGNS AND PLANETS Celestial System The mother earth rotates on its axis once in 24 hrs and revolves around the Sun in 365.2422 days. Various planets like Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter & Saturn also revolve around the Sun (Dig 1.). These planets have satelites revolving round them. Earth has one satellite called Moon revolving around it. The complete Solar system also revolved around the centre of our Galaxy "Milky Way" and makes one round in little hrs than 26000 years. The Galaxy has many solar systems with different Suns at their centres. Galaxy is shaped like two saucers placed one over the other and our solar system is revolving around it on one side of it. As earth revolves around the Sun, we see from earth stars around us in the sky. On account of motion of Earth around the Sun, the Sun appears to move round the stars once in a year. The line along which the Sun moves is called the Ecliptic. The broad band or belt in the heaven extending 90 on either side of the Ecliptic is known as Zodiac. The Ecliptic passes through centre of zodiac longitudinally. The zodiac revolves once in a day on its axis from east to west. The zodiac is divided into twelve equal parts, for purpose of astrology, called signs, which are named after the imaginary 2 figures which the stars form in each division. Since zodiac consists of 3600, each sign will consist of 3600/12=300. The signs are known as Rasis. Our sages identified twelve group of stars seperated 0 0 appox.30 each in the 360 celestial sphere. Thus we have 12 Rashis. They divided the celestial sphere in 12 parts because moon moves around the earth 12 times during the time earth revolved round the Sun. Nakshatra Looking at the daily movement of Moon, sages also identified 27 constellations around the celestial called Ashwini, Barni 0 0 etc. They are seperated by 360 /27= 13 20'. Every day Moon crosses over one constellation.Start of Ashwini match with the start of first sign Aries. From earth we see a celestial body passing over a sign, this helps us know the location of that body. In astronomy we define planet as a celestial body which revolved round the Sun and a body which revolves around a planet is called a satellite. Sun is termed as a star. In astrology planet is defined differently. Since man lives on earth and we want to studies effect of celestial bodies on human being, we study the motion of celestial bodies with respect to earth i.e. we take earth in centre and measure position of bodies around it, including. Sun, Moon and other planets. To measure the position we take far placed stars as 3 fixed and use them to know the coordinates/position of the other celestial bodies. In astrology we define a planet an any celestial body revolving round the earth; thus Sun & Moon are consider as planets for the purpose of astrology. What is Rahu/ Ketu Earth revolves round the sun in a plane called Ecliptic. Moon revlolves round the earth in a different plane which intersects ecliptic in a line. The point from where Moon seems to be going up is called Rahu & the point where Moon seems to be going down is called Ketu. These are only imaginary point but have special importance became their position define the eclipse - Solar or lunar. If Moon earth & Sun are in line with Rahu or Ketu an eclipse is formed. Since eclipse plays an important role an earth and in astrology too, Rahu/Ketu are important and are given the status of planets. How the planets get Retrograde The plants including earth move in one direction - anti Clockwise around the sun. When the planet and the earth are on the same side of the sun, the planet sems to be moving in the opposite direction from earth. This motion is called retrogression of planet. The names of different planets according to the Indian and western system and their symbols are as under: 4 PLANETS Indian name Western name Symbol Ravi or Surya Sun W Chandra Moon _ Mangal or Kuja Mars G Budha Mercury D Guru or Brahaspati Jupiter H Shukra Venus E Sani Saturn V Rahu Dragon's Head R Ketu Dragon's Tail S Indra Uranus JH Varun Neptune X Vayu Pluto ^ On account of motion of Earth around the Sun, the Sun appears to move round the stars once in a year.

These 27 parts are known as constellations and each constellation measures 13020' of arc of zodiac. Each constellation is further divided into four equal parts known as padas. Each Pada will measure 3020'. Each Rasi, therefore, contains 2 ¼ constellation or 9 Padas. 6 The names of 27 constellations with their longitudinal span in zodiac are as under: - S.N.

It is nearest to earth in January every year when it is 14,71,03,000 kms and farthest in July when its distance from earth is 15,21,06,000 kms. Its diameter is 13,92 000 kms (109.3 times of earth’s diameter), surface area is 6.087 x 1012 square kms. (1,20,000 times of earth’s surface area), Volume is 1.41 x 1018 cubic kms. (1,306,000 times the earth’s volume) and mass is 1.99 x 1030 kgs. The average rotation of Sun in zodiac is 10 per day and therefore it takes exactly one year to go around the zodiac. Sun is a symbol of spirit. It is considered as soul of kalapursha. Sun is considered as king of all planets. Possibly Sunday is kept as a holiday every where so that people are able to worship Sun on Sundays. Sun represents lord Brahma with his four faces causing the four seasons and four elements (Fire, Air, Earth, Water). The Sun offers us power of resistance and vitality. It rules our consciousness. It gives us force and will power and makes one determined and decisive. Sun is hot, dry, masculine and positive planet.

Sri Srimad A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada in March, 1971. He lived in India for 6 years till 1983, studying Jyotish and has received certificate of commendation for spreading Hindu astrology in the USA, from the Bharatiya Vidya Bhavan, in 1999. Web site: http://www.robertkoch.com n the first Canto of the great Vedic Purana Srimad Bhagavatam, there is a very interesting and instructional conversation that took place between a bull personifying I Dharma, or religion, and Bhumi, the mother earth in the form of a cow. The bull was standing on one leg, suggesting that that one out of four pillars of religious principles (represented by each leg of Dharma, the bull) was still existing, and that in itself was faltering with the progress of Kali-yuga. The four legs of the Dharma are truthfulness, cleanliness, mercy, and austerity. If most or all of these legs of Dharma are broken, or if 3 out of 4 Dharmic principles exist very rarely, in human society, then we can be confident that Kali-yuga – the age of quarrel and darkness – is well upon us. Given that there are some rare souls existing who speak and live the Supreme Absolute Truth, as is found in various Vedic literatures, the remaining leg of truthfulness still exists. Such persons are characterized by complete self-control, or the ability to detach themselves from the relative world of the senses and the objects of sense pleasure.

This belt is considered special because it is where the sun, the moon, and the planets all move. The word zodiac means “circle of figures” or “circle of life”. As the earth revolves around the sun, different parts of the sky become visible. Each month, one of the 12 constellations show up above the horizon in the east and disappears below the horizon in the west. If you are born under a particular sign, the constellation it is named for can’t be seen at night. Instead, the sun is passing through it around that time of year making it a daytime constellation that you can’t see!

  • The Zero-Point of the Zodiac of the Hindu Astronomers in Ancient India

All rights reserved. http://dx.doi.org/10.5303/PKAS.2015.30.2.709 THE ZERO-POINT OF THE ZODIAC OF THE HINDU ASTRONOMERS IN ANCIENT INDIA Amalendu Bandyopadhyay M. P. Birla Institute of Fundamental Research, M. P. Birla Planetarium, Kolkata, India E-mail: [email protected] (Received November 30, 2014; Reviced May 31, 2015; Aaccepted June 30, 2015) ABSTRACT In modern Astronomy the vernal equinoctial (VE) point is taken as the starting point for measuring celestial longitudes. Due to the precession of equinoxes, the above point is receding back along the ecliptic. As a result, the longitudes of fixed stars are increasing every year. In ancient India, the Hindu astronomers did not favour the idea of fixed stars changing their longitudes. In order to stabilize the zodiac, they had taken as the origin a point which is fixed on the ecliptic and as such is quite different from the VE point. This initial point being a fixed one, the longitude of stars measured from this origin remain invariable for all time. There was an epoch in the past when this initial point coincided with the VE point and thus the epoch may be called the zero-year. There is controversy over the determination of the zero-year. The reasons for the choice for the fixed zodiacal system by the Hindu astronomers as well as the epoch of zero-year have been found out on the basis of information available in various astronomical treatises of ancient India written in Sanskrit.

  • Drekkanna - the D/3 Chart = Dreshkhamsa
    DREKKANNA - THE D/3 CHART = DRESHKHAMSA Drekkana the D-3 chart = dreshkhamsha = a graphic representation of the placement of each radix graha into one of the 36 Drekkana BPHS Chapter 6: Shloka 7-8. Dreshkamsha: "One third of a Rashi is called Dreshkamsha. These are totally 36, counted from Mesha, repeating thrice at the rate of 12 per round. The 1st, 5th and the 9th Rashi from a Rashi are its three Dreshkhamsha and are,respectively, lorded by 1. Narada, 2. Agasthya 3. Durvasha." The meaning of the word DRESH – KANA DRESH mens seeing or visualizing objects which are apparent or hidden (obscure) in nature. KANA means corner or trine (Trikona). Therefore, Dreshkana represents the varga (division) where the signs, trine to each other, convey apparent as well as hidden personality and nature (swaroopa) of the native. Quotes From: David Frawley. the Astrology of the Seers, p. 186: "In this harmonic the first 1/3 or ten degrees 00° 00'-10° 00' of any sign ruled by itself. The middle 1/3,10° 00'-20° 00', is ruled by the subsequent sign of the same element. The last 1/3, 20° 00'-30° 00', is ruled by the final sign of the same element. For example, the first 1/3 of Sagittarius is in the harmonic third of Sagittarius, the second 1/3 in the harmonic third of Aries, and the last 1/3 in the harmonic third of Leo. Hence, if Saturn is located in a birth chart at 15° 20' Sagittarius, it would be in the harmonic third of Aries.
