About Planets
The Indian Astrology distinguishes the destiny and traits
of an individual that are associated with the positions
of the planets and the date, time and place of birth.
The Indian astrology considers the movement of two luminaries
namely the Sun and the Moon, five major planets (Mercury,
Mars, Saturn, Venus and Jupiter) and the two nodal points
of the Moon i.e Rahu and Ketu.
Jupiter
Also known as Brahaspati or Guru, Jupiter rules both
Moon and Sun controlling the movement of the planets.
Responsible for luck and fortune, the planet brings
success, fortune and fame. The largest planet in the
solar system, Jupiter it is associated with expansion,
growth and and opportunity. The position of Jupiter
in ones' chart serves as an indicator of one's faith,
confidence, buoyancy, higher mind, wisdom, optimism
and generosity. Jupiter's action is to expand, preserve
and increase on all levels. A well placed Jupiter is
associated with the spiritual, philosophical and intellectual
realms. The ill placement of Jupiter might lead to exaggeration,
delusions of grandeur and depletion of energies. Jupiter
is the ruler of the fire sign Sagittarius.
