The nine planets and Jagannath's iconography
Choudhury offers a symbolic correspondence between Jagannath's appearance and the Navagraha:
Graha | Correspondence with Jagannath |
|---|---|
Sun and Moon | His two large, round eyes |
Mars | His red lips |
Mercury | His Vāmana manifestation during Ratha Yātrā |
Jupiter | His yellow garments and golden ornaments |
Venus | His association with love |
Saturn | His black colour |
Rahu and Ketu | His unfinished or incomplete body |
