Namaste to all,

 

In the process of beginning to learn this amazing art (is that the right

word?) I have decided to learn the Sanskrit terms for the rashis,

nakshatras, and grahas. Unfortunately, I can't find a list of the English

to Sanskrit for the grahas - I only know Surya, Chandra, Budha, Rahu, Ketu,

and Guru. I just know that someone here can help me with Venus, Mars, and

Saturn.

 

I had a question about pronunciation of some of the rashis and nakshatras,

as well.

 

Is the "th" in Mithuna as in English, or a "t" followed by the aspirated "h"?

Same in Vrischika - is the "sch" one sound (like English "sh") or not? For

that matter, the "sh" in Mesha and Vrisha, same question (like English "sh"?)

 

- also -

 

Is the "ph" in Purva Phalguni like English, or a "p" followed by an aspiration?

 

Thanks so much for your help... I hope in the next week to write a

completely preliminary delineation of my natal chart for your perusal,

perhaps someone will be able to point out the basic things I will overlook

- as I know I shall!

 

Blessings,

 

Julie
