The second page describes ratio of heavenly gods Adityas of Vedic mythology with zodiac signs and planets in astrology, and also gives some comparisons of Vedic gods with gods of the Greek mythology and the Roman mythology who correspond with planets in astrology. |
Heavenly gods Adityas of Vedic mythology correspond with twelve zodiac signs. It is known that to god BHAGA there corresponds constellation PURVA-PHALGULI and to god ARYAMAN there corresponds constellation UTARA-PHALGULI. It is possible to assume that these names of constellations correspond to zodiac signs Capricorn and Aquarius as BHAGA and ARYAMAN are the interconnected pair of gods, and also zodiac signs Capricorn and Aquarius are interconnected by the common dominant planets saturn and uranus. Similarly other gods of Vedic mythology correspond with zodiac signs according to dominant and exalted planets, and according to own interrelations which are known in Vedas, that is shown on the chart:
 |
Twelve zodiac signs are designated within the
astrological circle by traditional symbols. To each zodiac sign there corresponds a name of one of 12 gods Adityas and the appropriate letter of the Russian alphabet. And also for each zodiac sign the red color specifies dominant planets, and blue color specifies exalted and coexalted planets: sun (SL), moon (LN), mercury (ME), venus (VE), mars (MA), jupiter (UP), saturn (SA), uranus (UR), neptune (NP), pluto (PL), proserpine (PR), chiron (XR). The information about dominant and exalted planets look on pages of other site: www.emotions.64g.ru/prof4/pr5en.htm. |
VARUNA and MITRA.
MITRA corresponds with the zodiac sign Leo (simha) where the sun dominates, and
VARUNA corresponds with the zodiac sign Crab (kataka) where the moon dominates
as these gods are main in the category Adityas, and also the dominant sun and
the dominant moon symbolize regal authority. Provided that VARUNA is the main
god and has characteristics of a lunar deity, and MITRA is the joint governor
and has characteristics of a solar deity, namely the lunar deity is more
significant rather than a solar deity in hierarchy of gods of Vedic mythology.
VARUNA is the keeper of heavenly waters of which clouds and rains are formed and
consequently corresponds with the zodiac sign Crab which belongs to elements of
water.
Names of zodiac signs in a context of Vedic astrology are written in brackets
near to the European names of zodiac signs.
SURYA and SAVITR.
SURYA corresponds with the zodiac sign Aries (mesha) where the sun exalts as
name SURYA means "sun" and means a sunlight which allows to see the world but
has brightness which does not allow to look at the sun. And also the planet mars
dominates in the zodiac sign Aries and has characteristics comparable with
shrill brightness of seen light, namely SURYA personifies light of the sun
bright and intolerable for eyes as against MITRA who personifies lighting and
fertile light of the sun.
SAVITR corresponds with the zodiac sign Taurus (vrishabha) where the moon exalts
as SAVITR is interconnected with SURYA, and also the moon in astrology is
interconnected to the sun and radiates reflected light of the sun, namely SAVITR
is a lunar deity and is personification of one of qualities which the moonlight
has.
In essence all heavenly gods of Vedic mythology in the category Adityas are
personifications of a sunlight or a moonlight, or light of other planets, and
have various qualities of light.
VISHNU and DHATR.
VISHNU corresponds with the zodiac sign Sagittarius (dhanu) and DHATR
corresponds with the zodiac sign Pisces (mesha) where the jupiter is a dominant
planet as VISHNU is the god whose greatness is comparable with
INDRA the main god in the category Rudras, and DHATR is similar to PRAJAPATI the
founder of the world, and also the planet jupiter is a symbol of the Supreme
gods as in the Roman mythology the Jove (Jupiter) is the Supreme god.
VISHNU and DHATR personify light, as well as all heavenly gods in the category
Adityas, but not light of the sun or the moon, and light of the planet jupiter
as planets too are sources of reflected light and have various light qualities.
BHAGA and ARYAMAN.
BHAGA corresponds with the zodiac sign Capricorn (makara) and ARYAMAN
corresponds with the zodiac sign Aquarius (kumbha) where planets saturn and uranus
are dominant as name BHAGA means "divine" and name ARYAMAN means "friendliness"
that corresponds to astrological characteristics of saturn and uranus. Namely in
the Roman mythology Saturn is tsar of "Golden Age" during which validity reigned
in the world and people were happy. And also Uranus in the Roman mythology is
identical to Janus who was the joint governor of Saturn in an empire of the
Golden Age.
Besides the planet jupiter exalts in the zodiac sign Capricorn that is
additional acknowledgement of significance of god BHAGA, and confirms a ratio
with the zodiac sign Capricorn as the jupiter is a planet of the Supreme gods.
Dominant and exalted planets in zodiac signs are components which form
characteristics of gods and form qualities of light which is personified by
heavenly gods Adityas. Therefore it is necessary to take into account not only
the most significant planets which I accept in attention in the present
description, but it is necessary to take into account complex combinations of
planets. And also it is necessary to take into account that each planet
dominates or exalts in different zodiac signs and consequently in a different
degree is significant for different gods. For example, the jupiter dominates in
the zodiac sign Sagittarius and consequently determines the basic qualities of
light in Sagittarius, but also the jupiter exalts in the zodiac sign Capricorn
and consequently somewhat determines qualities of light in Capricorn. It is
possible to tell that light of jupiter in Sagittarius is the most significant,
but light of jupiter is additional in Capricorn.
VIVASVAT.
VIVASVAT corresponds with the zodiac sign Scorpio (vrishchica) where the planet pluto
is dominant as VIVASVAT is a defective god deprived hands and legs that
corresponds to astrological characteristics of the planet pluto which symbolizes
misfortunes and deprivations i.e. VIVASVAT has qualities of saddened light.
Actually VIVASVAT has strong potential opportunities and qualities of light as
the sun coexalts in the zodiac sign Scorpio, but potential opportunities are
saddened with the compelled inferiority of this god.
USHAS.
USHAS corresponds with the zodiac sign Libra (tula) where the planet venus
dominates as venus is a morning star which can be seen before sunrise, and also
goddess USHAS has a name which means "morning star".
PUSHAN.
PUSHAN corresponds with the zodiac sign Gemini (mithuna) where the planet
mercury dominates as PUSHAN is a god who has incessant movement and expansion in
space that is similarly to astrological values of the planet mercury, and also
is identical to characteristics of god Mercury in the Roman mythology.
ANSA.
ANSA corresponds with the zodiac sign Virgo (kanya) where the planet mercury is
exalted.
This god has no concrete descriptions in texts of Vedas but there are indirect
demonstrations which allow to make comparison with the zodiac sign Virgo and the
planet mercury. Namely ANSA and PUSHAN have interrelations with Ashvins who are
divine twins, that indirectly corresponds with the zodiac sign Gemini where the
planet mercury dominates, and the planet mercury exalts in the zodiac sign
Virgo.
Total 12 heavenly gods Adityas form an astrological circle and form space in
which there is a universe if to take into account that the astrological circle
is a symbol of a universe. According to ratio of zodiac signs in astrological
circle it is possible to consider ratio of 12 gods. Namely in astrology there is
a rule according to which if angular distances between zodiac signs have sizes
30, 60, 120, 150 degrees then ratio are friendly; if angular distances have size
180 degrees then ratio are inconsistent but properties of the appropriate zodiac
signs supplement each other; if angular distances have size 90 degrees then
ratio are disputed.
For example, the angular distance between zodiac signs Aries and Libra has size
180 degrees. It means that mutual relation of gods
SURYA and USHAS are inconsistent, but these gods aspire to each other as
properties of one god supplement properties of other god. Namely USHAS is
beloved of
SURYA.
Or angular distances between zodiac signs Aries and Capricorn, and also Aries
and Crab have size 90 degrees. It means that
SURYA has disputed mutual relation with gods BHAGA and VARUNA. Namely in texts
of Vedas it is not told about mutual relation of
SURYA and BHAGA that is caused by incomparability of these gods, and also in
texts of Vedas is specified on subordinated position
SURYA in relation to VARUNA and there are no indications on any familiarity.
With other gods besides VARUNA and BHAGA there is friendly mutual relation of
SURYA as angular distances between the appropriate zodiac signs have sizes 30,
60, 120, 150 degrees.
It is similarly possible to consider friendly and disputed ratio of sounds of
human speech according to friendly and disputed mutual relation of gods that
allows to see interesting laws in structure of speech. For example, in Russian
language there are disputed ratio of sounds in words:
;
and friendly ratio of sounds in words:
.
According to compatibility and incongruity of sounds it is possible to consider
compatible and incongruous ratio of gods. For example,
VIVASVAT corresponds to sound
which is difficultly
combined with other sounds that allows to speak about inconsistent character of
this god.
And also it is possible to analyze absorption (assimilation) of sounds in words
and to draw conclusions on mutual relation of gods. For example, in the word
there is absorption of sound
of the initial word
that allows to speak
about disputed relations of VARUNA and USHAS. Or in the word
as a result of a combination of sounds
and
there is an absorption of sound
which turns to a sound
that allows to
speak about disputed relations of VISHNU and DHATR, or allows to speak that
VISHNU gets new properties as a result of interactions with DHATR.
If to take into account that in Hinduism (Hindu mythology) VISHNU is a god
who has different avatars (embodiments or incarnations) then as a result of
interaction with DHATR there are new properties which can be considered as one
of avatara of VISHNU. And also if to take into account that the sound
corresponds with BRAHMA and
a world egg or cosmic egg then transformation of sound
into a sound
can be considered as
correlation of VISHNU and BRAHMA in a context of Hindu mythology about what look

The following page gives the information on qualities of light which heavenly gods Adityas of Vedic mythology personify.
