Funny!!!. Where you got this stuff from?
Lord Rama had Sun in Aries ( according to the birth-chart ) .
Both Brahma ( The Creator ) and Saraswati ( Goddess of Wisdom ) are aquarius. ( no surprises )
Guru Nanak ( Founder Of Sikhism ) was supposedly an Aries.
Lord Hanuman ( Power and Strength ) was an Aries as well. ( again no prize for guessing )

hey, is there a God for Pisces, FD? =)
Guru Nanak since he is from the Punjab he could be Aquarian - the Punjab must be ruled by Aquarius. Buddha would be Piscean.
Buddha could be both Virgo/Pisces, the goddess Durga probably an Aries expression comparatively less chthonic than Kali.
Or is it Panjab? Indo European Sanskritic 'Panch' - 5, land of five rivers.
Just thought about Jainism extreme puritanical Virgo.
"Lord Hanuman ( Power and Strength ) was an Aries as well."
Quite evident from the story where he lifted the whole mountain to get one herb.
Krishna was a playboy and a nice driver. So fits Aries nature perfectly.
By the way, Jesus can never be a Capricorn. So am not going to celebrate Xmas anymore on 25th Dec.
I was thinking that Vishnu could be Libra, Durga again is some kind of Fire goddess probably Leo, Parvathi and Lakshmi don't don't know about Ganesha either.
Ganesha shud be taurus. Food food food... and had a vehicle of his own.
Dont bother too much abt wiki dates/lunar/solar calender etc Cap. One needs to look at the birth-charts which are commonly known to Indian Astrologers. Lord Rama had Sun in Aries ( and he is regarded as the one who had maximum virtues possible ) and so did Guru Nanak. Krishna had Sun in Leo and unlike Rama he had a multi-faceted pesonality and was definitely the most resourceful.
LOL, i wouldn't know one hindu god from another. Heard of Buhdda though. If there are so many hindu Gods, who reigns supreme? How do people know who to be loyal to?
Is this solely based out of "myth" or is there some real "belief" attached?
Thanks Shaka; interesting.
Shiva is my favorite can someone post pictures?
Lets get some pictures in here!
From what I can remember from my childhood Shiva is mostly a masculine god but he is also dualistic/hermaphrodistic Shiva/Shakti, Shiva actually is quite Scorpionic the phallus for example and the snake around his neck but he does have Geminian tendencies - Shiva Natraja as the God of dance is Geminian like. Kali is pure Scorpio, Scorpio is quintessentially a feminine sign - deep dark void of mystery and destruction, in the masculine association Shiva is procreative (remember the Shiva linga) Pluto like Saturn are masculine planets I suppose, the destroyer and creator aspects seems dualitic so fascinating asociations.
'associations.'
This is a picture that I'm familiar with from I don't remember when - Kali standing on the corpse of Shiva probably metaphorically representative of the dark feminine chthonic overcoming masculine forces. User Submitted Image

Cool hermaphroditic (hermaphrodite) image.
