VARAS IN ASTROLOGY
In Vedic astrology, "waras" refer to
the days of the week, each ruled by a specific planet. The term
"vara" is derived from the Sanskrit word "vāra," which also
means day. These planetary rulers influence the characteristics and energies
associated with each day. For example, Sunday is ruled by the Sun, Monday by
the Moon, and so on.
Here's a breakdown of the days of the week and
their planetary rulers in Vedic astrology:
Sunday (Ravivara): Ruled by the Sun (Surya),
associated with leadership, authority, and vitality.
Monday (Somvara): Ruled by the Moon (Chandra),
associated with emotions, nurturing, and intuition.
Tuesday (Mangalvara): Ruled by Mars (Mangala),
associated with energy, courage, and action.
Wednesday (Budhavara): Ruled by Mercury
(Budha), associated with communication, intellect, and adaptability.
Thursday (Guruvara/Brihaspativara): Ruled by
Jupiter (Guru), associated with wisdom, expansion, and good fortune.
Friday (Shukravara): Ruled by Venus (Shukra),
associated with love, beauty, and relationships.
Saturday (Shanivara): Ruled by Saturn (Shani),
associated with discipline, responsibility, and limitations.
These planetary rulers are considered in
astrological calculations and interpretations, influencing the timing of events
and the overall quality of a day, according to Hindu American Foundation. For
example, a day ruled by Jupiter might be considered auspicious for starting new
ventures or engaging in educational activities, while a day ruled by Saturn
might be better suited for introspection and focused work.
