Makara SAnkranthi Celebrations 2014 :: A New Year Welcomes
Sun is considered one of the most important deities in Hinduism. According to Vedic Astrology, the Sun moves through the 12 signs of the zodiac and this is known as Sankranti. When the Sun moves into the zodiac sign of Makar (Capricorn), it is known as Makar Sankranti and is one of the most auspicious Sankrantis along with Mesha (Aries) Sankranti.
Makar Sankranti marks the transition of the Sun from Sagittarius (Dhanu) in the zodiac sign of Capricorn (Makar). Although, the Sun does not actually move, it is the relative motion of the Sun with respect to the earth that results in the illusion that the Sun is moving. There is an interesting tale on how the Sun goes to meet his son Shani on this day. According to Hindu mythology, Shani (Saturn), the ruler of Makar (Capricorn) is the son of Surya (Sun) and although they do not have cordial relations, Surya always pays a visit to his son on this day. Thus, this day reinstates the value of the bond between a father and a son.
