In the Cosmos of Astrology, there are 9 planets that rule over our destinies altogether. Let's discuss them in detail here.
SUN:
As the Ruler of the nine celestial planets, Sun holds a special place among all other planets as it is responsible for a Soul's Leadership, Administrative and managerial qualities. King Sun enhances a person's role in his karmic carrier and puts him on the stage and in the limelight for the whole World to see.
MOON:
The queen of the planets, Chandra or Moon, represents the emotional and nurturing side of a Soul. She represents the Universal motherhood in all of us.The planet of Care and sensitivity, the Queen Mother Moon makes someone Soft and beautiful inside, while emotional and sweet on the outside.
MARS:
Dynamic and action oriented Mars is always ready for action, to command and conquer his adversaries, to march on and get things accomplished. Commander Mars makes a person strong willed, domineering, powerful and physically fit.
JUPITER:
Benevolent Jupiter or Brihaspati sits humbly upon his vast ocean of Knowledge and Wisdom, under the Tree of the Cosmic Universe, as he represents luck, well being and prosperity of a Soul's journey in this world. Known to be amiable among planets, Teacher Jupiter makes a person wise, wealthy and prosperous.
SATURN:
Master Shani Dev is the all powerful, all knowing deity who rules over balance in the Universe. Feared among the masses, Saturn is a strict but impartial teacher who shows neither favor nor enmity as he represents qualities such as Discipline, patience, perseverance and hard work and rightfully appreciates a Soul possessing these attributes. Master Saturn, when pleased with a Soul's dedicated efforts towards dharma, showers unlike any other with Power, prestige, authority and overall success.
MERCURY:
Businessman Mercury is the Jack of all trades and planet for all things Business. The ever learning and curious Mercury represents the Student inside us all as we dive into the world of Trade and Commerce, communication, Journalism and Mass Media. Quick to respond, witty and funny, Mercury shapes a curious Soul into a skilled master adept at any vocation or career. The Planet for Planning and logic gives intelligence, craftsmanship, entrepreneurship and mastery in the field of Business.
VENUS:
Damsel Venus showers a person's world with Love, happiness and pleasure and overall well-being when she gracefully glances at a Soul. The Maiden who arises from the oceans from an Oyster as a Pearl shimmering with light and peaceful calmness, represents music, sweet food, clothes and vehicles as she makes a person dwell on the lap of Luxury.
RAHU:
The Dragon's head Rahu, a demon all powerful among the celestial planets represents the obsessive side of a Soul and the basic urge to attain one's desires. Ruling over conflicting attributes like dedication and addiction, Rahu rules two sides of the coin promoting and obstructing a Soul's journey in this world. Obsessive Rahu makes a person gamble all his effort into anything and everything he so desires, resulting in exceedingly high achievements when promoted in a positive direction.
KETU:
The Dragon's tail Ketu, the other half of the Dragon represents Wisdom and withdrawal from the worldly passions, desires and ambitions of a Soul. Standing in stark contrast to Rahu, Ketu however is actively involved in untangling a Soul from the clutches of the seemingly insignificant world we cling to. Ascetic Ketu gracefully helps us seek Divine wisdom, to let go of the material in search of the immaterial, thus breaking the cycles of life and death.
