Vivasvan - (The Radiant Celestial) In the realm of ancient Indian mythology, Vivasvan, often referred to as the Sun God or Surya, holds a prominent position. He is celebrated as the embodiment of light, warmth, and vitality, playing a crucial role in sustaining life on Earth. Vivasvan is revered not only for his physical radiance but also for the knowledge and wisdom he imparts to humanity. According to the sacred texts, Vivasvan is the father of Yama, the god of death, and is also associated with the legendary warrior figure, Manu, from whom all mankind is believed to descend. His presence is integral to various Vedic rituals, symbolizing the eternal cycle of creation and destruction. In addition to his mythological significance, Vivasvan is a symbol of righteousness and truth. His daily journey across the sky is seen as a testament to the power of duty and the importance of following one's path with integrity. As the light dispels darkness, Vivasvan stands as a beacon of hope and renewal. In contemporary discourse, the significance of Vivasvan extends beyond mythology. He serves as a reminder of humanity's connection to nature and the cosmos, urging a harmonious relationship with the environment. As we reflect on Vivasvan's virtues, we are called to embrace the light of knowledge and justice, fostering a more enlightened and compassionate society.

Both the words Vata and Vayu are derived from the root 'Va', which means to move or carry the smell.

Their position is in the direction of the south direction from the right angle of the Vastu Chakra. They get the Yagya portion and have the right to grant boons. Rice powder is offered to them in the Yagya. Pusha is considered a symbol of weak mentality in the Vastu Chakra because when it is corrupted, deception and ego are born in the person. He was a supportive guide, a 'good' god, leading his adherents towards rich pastures and wealth. He carried a golden lance, the symbol of activity.

3. Vitha: Deceptions of the Divine - The term "Vitha" embodies a multifaceted concept, particularly in the context of Vastu Shastra, which is the ancient Indian science of architecture and spatial arrangement. Within this framework, the word "with" conveys a sense of deceit or illusion, suggesting that not all appearances are truthful. The idea that gods may wear disguises invites contemplation on the nature of divinity and truth in human understanding. Interestingly, Vitha's significance also extends to the physical representation of Vastu Purush, the metaphysical figure that embodies the spirit of a site. Positioned strategically, his prestige is tied to the area beneath the right armpit of this figure. This placement underscores the complex interplay between spiritual authority and the physical realm, highlighting how perceptions of power can be intertwined with deception. In essence, Vitha serves as a reminder to look beyond surface realities and question the veracity of appearances, especially in the face of divine influence. The exploration of such themes prompts a deeper inquiry into the layered meanings within traditional beliefs and practices. Vitha refers to the inherent qualities or attributes associated with the celestial bodies and their influence on human life. It encompasses aspects like character traits, psychological tendencies, and the potential for various life paths based on astrological configurations. Each individual’s Vitha is unique, shaped by the positions of planets at the time of birth.

Together, Vitha and Brihatkshat illustrate the Vedic perspective on the cosmos, where the microcosm of individual experiences is intimately linked to the macrocosm of universal energies. Understanding these concepts fosters a deeper appreciation for the teachings of Vedic philosophy and their applications in contemporary life, encouraging individuals to explore their celestial connections and the potential they hold. In summary, Vitha and Brihatkshat serve as critical frameworks in Vedic astrology, inviting us to reflect on our place within the vast tapestry of the cosmos. As we delve into these concepts, we gain insights into our lives, revealing the profound interdependence between personal and universal realms.

But in astrological texts, the meaning of deer is considered to be from the moon of the month of Margashira, Mrigashira Nakshatra, and Mrigashira Nakshatra.
