The Zodiac is divided in 12 Parts. The space around us is thus primarily of 12 types, each thus gives a bhaava or expression space. Whereas the mind is divided into 27 parts, Vedic philosophy expresses this in the form of personified moon and his 27 wives. Mind due to a fact of creation is wavering in nature. Like a young man with 27 Wives, it has no rest and it’s passions are many. The 27 Wives are described below. Understanding our mind is essential for all relationships including relationship with people and also nature(Prakriti).
