Today is Ratha Sapthami. The Sun is the central star of our solar system, providing the light, heat, and gravitational force essential for life on Earth, driving weather, ocean currents, and photosynthesis, while also holding the planets in orbit and serving as a powerful cultural symbol of life, energy, and divinity

Ratha Saptami is symbolically represented in the form of the sun god Surya turning his ratha drawn by seven horses, with Aruṇa as the charioteer, towards the northern hemisphere, in a north-easterly direction. The earth’s inclination towards the sun is the steepest today.
