Sharan ji, Namaskar! <This samkranti is for the sun crossing the Makar Rashi ( the real one ).> Kindly enlighten me as to how many types of Makar Rashis, for that matter all the twelve Rashis, are there? Could they be (i) Real (ii) unreal (iii) surreal (iv) half real and so on? Then again are there (i) Vedic (ii) non-vedc and (iii) anti-Vedic Rashis as well? Further, what does " sun crosing the Makar Rashi (the real one) mean? When shold it be celebrated according to you, if not on the shortet day of the year, and why?
