Celestial spheres of
houses, sphere of fixed bodies, sphere of Saturn, Sphere of Jupiter,
sphere of Mars, sphere of Sun, sphere of Venus, sphere of Mercury, sphere of
Moon, Empyrean region, atmosphere, hydrosphere, lithosphere. The first is lithosphere; the second is
hydrosphere; the third is the atmosphere and the fourth is empyrean region. Above
it, there is the first celestial sphere,
the moon, the second Mercury, the third Venus, the fourth Sun, the fifth Mars, the sixth Jupiter and the seventh Saturn. Hence. Lithosphere is surrounded by
water, water by air, air by empyrean region. The empyrean region is
surrounded by the first sky on
which moon is situated. It is also known as the lunar sphere. The lunar sphere
is surrounded by the second sky on
which planet Mercury
is situated. The sphere of Mercury
is surrounded by the third
sky on which the Sun is situated. The
fourth sky is surrounded by the fifth
sky on which Mars is situated. The fifth sky is
surrounded by the sixth sky on which Jupiter is situated. The sixth
sky is surrounded by the seventh
sky on which Saturn is situated.
Then there is the sphere of fixed bodies also
known as the eighth sphere or the sphere of houses which is full of countless stars. Only God knows their exact number. From celestial spheres there have
been inferred 27 constellations (nakshtras) in addition to twelve houses. The
sphere above is the highest sky, which has also been termed by some historians
as Satin sphere or the throne of God. There is no
other sphere beyond that. This sphere is full of darkness and silence. This the highest
of all, or crown of spheres. Its movement makes all
spheres rotate on their respective axes.
Division of Planets in Celestial Spheres
Since the master of
the house of cancer is moon in
the celestial sphere and mercury exists
above it, the position of the house
of Gemini, therefore, is before cancer whereas the house
of Virgo is after that of Leo. These
two spheres are subordinate to
mercury, which is their master. Then there is Venus
right above Mercury. Therefore, house of
Taurus comes before Gemini while Libra is after Virgo. Both of these spheres
are related to the planet Venus. Above Venus, there is Sun that controls the material world. Above it, there
is the sphere of Mars. Therefore, there is
the house of Aries before Taurus and of Scorpio after Libra.
These two houses are of Mars. Above it, there is the sphere of Jupiter. Then,
there is the house of Pisces before that
of Aries while the house of Sagittarius is after Capricorn. Therefore, these two houses are associated with Jupiter. Above them, there is the sphere of
Saturn. Before Pisces, there is Aquarius
while house of Capricorn is after Arc. These two houses belong to planet Saturn.
