influences of the flanks (Gandanta)
Vaidyanatha Dikshita, in his monumental work, Jataka Parijata(chapter
X) stated that a period when the Moon (other planets too, by general
belief) transits the junctions between the Naksatras-Moola- Jyestha;
Magha -Aslesha; and Revati -Aswini, if a child, a slave or even
an animal is born in the house hold, it will bring ruin to family
and to new-born.
