the ascending node of the moon. It's natural significations include worldly
desires, worldly benefits, laziness, gratification, and ignorance. It is by
nature unpredictable and creates sudden changes and influences, rigidity and
passion. It is similar to Sani or Saturn in its nature and influence.

involved in the control of the saccadic eye movements (the abrupt short
shifts of focus in the eyes). The caudate influences memory in relation to
orientation in space. The caudate is responsible for our ability to change
behavior patterns. It is used to counter the ill effect of Rahu which causes
students to be disinterested in studies and wife struck with sickness or a
restless mind. In all these situations Hessonite helps.
