The zodiac is divided into twelve signs, each containing 30 degrees and all the planets are moving round the zodiac in different motions so that they take different periods to complete the circuit. The zodiac is known as “KALA PURUSHA” representing a full human figure.
The names of the twelve signs (rashis) are : Aries (Mesha), Taurus (Brisha), Gemini (Mithuna), Cancer (Karkata), Leo (Simha), Virgo (Kanya), Libra (Tula), Scorpio (Brischika), Sagittarius (Dhanu), Capricorn (Makara), Aquarius (Kumbha) and Pisces (Meena). (rashis) are : Aries (Mesha), Taurus (Brisha), Gemini (Mithuna), Cancer (Karkata), Leo (Simha), Virgo (Kanya), Libra (Tula), Scorpio (Brischika), Sagittarius (Dhanu), Capricorn (Makara), Aquarius (Kumbha) and Pisces (Meena).
The names of the planets are : Sun (Ravi), Moon (Chandra), Mars (Mangala), Mercury (Budha), Jupiter (Brihaspati), Venus (Sukra), Saturn (Sani), Rahu or Dragon’s head and Ketu or Dragon’s tail.
The body of the “Kala Purusha” has been devided into twelve parts and each part has been assigned to a raso commencing from Mesha. They are as follows :-
Rasi Part of Kala Purusha
Mesha Head
Brisha Face
Mithuna Neck
Karkata Chest
Simha Upper abdomen
Kanya Lower abdomen
Tula Groins
Brischika enital organs
Dhanu Thighs
Makara Knees
Kumbha Shanks
Meena feet
Mesha, Simha and Dhanu rasis rule over vitality, Brisha, Kanya and Makara rasis over bone and flesh, Mithuna, Tula and Kumbha rasis over breathing, and Karkata, Brischika and Meena rasis over blood.
The zodiac is also divided into twelve houses reckoning from Lagna or ascendant and each house commonly known as bhava is assigned to a specific part of the body of the “Kala Purusha”. Here also the first house represents head, the second house represents face and so on.
They are as follows :-
House or bhava Part of Kala Purusha
1st house or Lagna bhava Head, brain and mind
2nd house Face, eyes, nose, tongue, teeth, ears, fingers, nails, bones and flesh
3rd house Neck, throat, collar bones, hands, breathing, ears and bodily growth
4th house Heart, lungs, chest and blood
5th house Upper abdomen and mind
6th house Lower abdomen, naval, bones, flesh and mental faculties
7th house Groins, semen, female organs and breathing
8th house Genital organs, urine and blood
9th house Thighs and limbs
10th house Knees, bones and flesh
11th house Shanks and breathing
12th house Feet and blood
The houses from the 2nd to 6th govern the right side of the body and from 12th to 8th in reverse order govern the left side of the body.
The planets are working both for building up and destroying the body and they have different activities and functions over it.
