Surya (SUN)
The Sun, the life-giving heart of our solar system, rules will and individuality. It is the core of your potential and uniqueness as an individual: who you are and what you are about. It represents the main direction and focus you want your life to take and your determination to accomplish what you set out to do.
The Sun’s position in your horoscope demonstrates the depth of your personal honesty and integrity, the ability to command respect and authority, to impress and influence others. It indicates the stamp of your character, the deepest flavour of your individuality.
Chandra (MOON)
The Moon reflects the power of the inner light, channelling and moulding it into the shape of your personality. While the Sun stands for the character, or ego-self, the Moon displays your nature in a way that can be grasped by the outer world. Ruling desire as opposed to self, or need as opposed to reason, she indicates your feelings about yourself; how you handle relationships and your emotional response to situations and experiences.
The Moon manages the flow of your daily functions: physical, emotional and mental. The Moon symbolises your home base and domestic environment, representing babies and young children, your mother and other important women in your life.
Brihaspati-Guru (JUPITER)
Jupiter is masculine, disciplined, co-operative and priestly. He rules the potential for growth and expansion on many levels: physical, intellectual, spiritual, cultural, and the accumulation of material assets, power and status. Jupiter describes your optimism and aspirations.
Jupiter is a giant self-illuminating planet, radiating more energy than it receives, in keeping with his role as lord and teacher of the gods. Traditionally described as the greater fortune, Jupiter governs joy, luck and well-being. When well-aspect, he provides superb opportunities for expansion and success. Poorly aspect, he generates over-confidence and foolhardy actions with little care for the consequences.
Jupiter spends about a year in each sign, taking twelve years to complete the journey through all twelve signs.
Budha (MERCURY)
Mercury symbolises mentality: your intellect and mental outlook, the way you think and communicate. Mercury, as Hermes, is the emblem for the magus, the wise counsellor, divine messenger — and prince of thieves!
This fast-moving planet stands for ideas, methods and information, especially as expressed through communication and media. Through its rulership of your hands, Mercury indicates your manual dexterity and mechanical skills.
Mercury also governs transportation: how you get where you’re going, both physically and mentally. Are you a hare, or a tortoise? Mercury’s position in your chart will tell all.
Mangal (MARS)
Mars, the god of warriors, rules physical energy and efforts. His placement in your chart expresses the strength and direction of the physical force that drives your ego.
Mars fires your emotions, but also powers your mental endeavours and communicative skills. The red planet governs energy, strength, courage, life force and expansion.
Mars describes male relationships and associations, risk-taking inclinations, and the physical challenges you are likely to encounter. Well-placed, Mars endows powerful energy and an indomitable will to succeed, but when poorly placed can mean accidents, injuries or other forms of violence, according to the inclinations of the sign and house concerned.
From a romantic point of view, Mars in a woman’s chart shows the most desired kinds of men, whilst his placement in a man’s chart indicates the activities or mode of action undertaken in pursuit of romantic inclinations and desires.
In ancient mythology, Venus, the beautiful love goddess, was always getting up to something with Mars, the fierce god of war. None of the other gods could ever work out what the lovely Venus saw in the headstrong, arrogant Mars, but she certainly fancied him, no matter what anyone else said or thought.
Shukra (VENUS)
Venus, the goddess of love, represents female relationships and social interactions at every level. She rules your social attitudes and behaviour, along with your aesthetic tastes and inclinations. Venus represents the principles of harmony and equilibrium.
Venus indicates your values. Her placement describes your inclination toward romance, marriage and other partnerships, capacity for humour, and the pursuit of pleasure.
From a romantic point of view, Venus in a man’s chart shows the kinds of women most likely to desired, whilst her placement in a woman’s chart indicates the ways in which the subject is likely to present herself to attract the interest of romantic partners.
Now Venus rules desire in all its forms. So since she can be rather avaricious, Venus also governs the flow of money and the financial conditions in your life.

Shani (SATURN)
Saturn, the grim reaper, rules the responsibilities, restrictions and limitations we are apt to encounter, and the lessons we must learn in life. He does not deny or diminish imagination, inspiration, spirituality, or good fortune, but he does demand that these things be given structure and meaning.
The karmic lessons we have come to experience and overcome in this lifetime are expressed by Saturn, the karmic initiator of the zodiac. He spends around two and a half years in each sign, taking about twenty-nine years on his journey through all the signs.
The Saturn Return
Each twenty-nine years naturally presents us with the challenge to rise to new levels of awareness, or face the consequences of having failed to gain the wisdom required so to do. When Saturn in the heavens returns to the zodiacal degree where he was placed in your birth chart, you are said to be experiencing your Saturn Return. This only happens once every 29 years, so at around age 28-30, 57-59 (and if you live long enough) 86-88 you have what astrologers call a Saturn Return. This signifies a time of transition, from one life-phase to the next. The first Saturn return (around age 28-30) marks the transition from the Phase of Youth to the Phase of Maturity; the second from the Phase of Maturity to the Phase of Wisdom. The last one, if reached, seems usually to mark the transition either to the next world or else back to a second childhood!
As the Saturn return approaches, often our lives seem to speed up, as if hurrying to clear out old baggage from the past, to lighten the load for the next stage. Important things that either finalize old issues, or prepare the ground for new developments tend to occur with increasing frequency. Relationships and major life-decisions are often the focal points for this clearing out of karmic baggage.
Dragon’s Head (RAHU) and Dragon’s Tail (KETU)::
What are Rahu and Ketu?
Rahu & Ketu, the two Nodes of the Moon, take about 19 months to transit through a sign. Rahu will enter Pisces & Ketu in Virgo on 25′Th March 2005. They’re unique in the sense that they’re always transiting retrograde, indicating Karma from previous lives. Rahu & Ketu are the mysterious unseen points in space causing the eclipses. They’re not technically planets but their influence is so significant that they’re given the status of planets.
These two are next in importance to the other two planets -Jupiter and Saturn. These four are the slowest moving planets and require maximum attention when they are in transit.
No planet is 100% malefic (bad). The transit effects depend on how we respond to the favourable & unfavourable situations. Rahu has a positive side, offering great boons in communications, new inventions, technology etc.
Rahu is extroverted, affirming, and ambitious, while Ketu is introverted, negating and detached. Rahu’s transits show where someone is likely to expand, driven, try new things and disperse their energy into materialistic pursuits. Ketu’s transits show where someone is likely to experience restriction, detachment, completion or focus and deepen their spiritual pursuits. If both the running period & transit effects are bad, the overall effect ought to be bad.
Therefore, you can reduce the malefic effects by performing remedies.
Here goes the list of indications of Rahu-Ketu’s transit based on your rising 12 sign or ascendant.
Rahu is a planet of materialism and gives material gains in a particular area. It gives extremely good results in Kendras & amp; Trikonas. If well placed it gives happiness. If well aspected it gives happiness, acquisition of wealth & a powerful position. But it also gives mental anxieties; it creates conditions wherein you really cannot enjoy material gains. If not well placed & not well aspected it can give loss of position, legal hassles & misfortune. Also it urges one to turn to the higher powers to seek mental peace. Ketu, on the other hand, will deprive a person of the benefits of the house it is transiting and force a person to think on a higher plane. It can result in turning the mind inwards to seek the ultimate truth.
