Vrinda Charitable Trust ,Article Hindu Vedic Astrology ,Holstices in Astrology

In astrology, the Indian holistic depends upon the Sun’s speed. When the Sun enters from one house to another tith is known as holstice (sankrant). There are 12 holstices in a year. The first holstice is mekh sankrant. Its year begins with Baisakh while the calculation begins from sambat bikramahih. At the beginning of Baisakh Sankrant the Sun travels to mekh holstice. This holistic covers Baisakh (Hindi) and April (English). In a sequence, the holstices are Aries (hamal); Taurus (Saur); Gemini (Jauz); Sagitarius (mizan); Scorpio (Aqrab); Dhanu (Qaus); Capricorn (Jaddi); Aquarisous (Dalv) and Pisces (Hut). In the Arabic language, these houses are called celestial circles.

One is evil or darkness and the other is good or light. The time when the Moon rises is known as good (shudhi) covering the period from the fourth, day of the month to the full Moon (Puranmashi) as the light of the Moon becomes brighter gradually during these days.
