Graha
Also known as: Vedic planet
Graha is the Vedic word for a planet or node used as an active chart factor.
Plain-English Meaning
The core grahas are Sun, Moon, Mars, Mercury, Jupiter, Venus, Saturn, Rahu, and Ketu.
Why It Matters
Vedic readings do not start by treating every modern astronomical body equally. The classical grahas carry the main interpretive load.
How myjataka Uses It
Reports focus on the nine classical grahas, their houses, lordships, dignity, dasha role, and relationship to Lagna and Moon.
