Indian Astrology is based on the 12 Sings and 27 Nakshatras spread along the zodiac, the seven planets and the two nodes (chhayegrahes). Expect the Sun and the moon, the other five planets (viz. Mars, Mercury, Jupiter, Venus & Saturn) own two sings each. From mathematical points, the nodes have no mass and these are not visible to the human eye like the other planets, the nodes are assigned the status of planets (Rahu & Ketu) due to their strong influence on human affairs.

Among the five planets apart from Sun & Moon, Jupiter & Saturn takes maximum time to travel & take a entire rotation of the zodiac.

Jupiter:

The vedic name of Jupiter is ‘Brihaspati’, ‘Brihat’ means great and ‘pati’ means protector. In the Puranas, Jupiter is called ‘Deva Guru’ or ‘preceptor of Devatas’.

Saturn:

Saturn is the farthest planet from the sun in the solar system. In Indian scriptures he has been assigned the evaluation of our karma and dispense reward or punishment. Due to slow motion it is called Mandah (Slow), which takes 30 years to take a complete turn of the zodiac. According to dictum, ‘sani saneh saneh charati iti saneshcharah’. Due to slow motion, Saturn is the karaka for longevity. As per the another dictum, ‘Sthana Vriddhi Karoti Mandah’. Saturn gradually augments through diligence the affairs of the house it occupies and harms the houses accepted therefrom.

Saturn is exalted in Libra in the natural zodiac. Libra happens to be the 10th house from Capricorn and 9th house from Aquarius, the two houses are owned by Saturn. Saturn’s highest exaltation point is 20° in Libra, the positive sign of Venues in Swati Nakashatra owned by Rahu. Venus is the lord of Libra and Rahu and Saturn’s friends. Saturn is debilitated in the opposite sign Aries, the positive and fiery house of Mars.
