- 七曜
- The seven brilliant ones -- the sun and moon, together with the five planets which are connected with fire, water, wood, metal, and earth. Their essence shines in the sky, but their spirits are over men as judges of their good and evil, and as rulers over good and evil fortune. The following list shows their names in Chinese and Sanskrit:Sun 日, 太陽; aditya 阿彌底耶Moon月, 太陰; soma 蘇摩Mars火星, 勢惑勞; aṅgāraka 盎哦囉迦Mercury水星, 辰星; budha 部陀Jupiter木星, 歳星; bṛhaspati 勿哩訶娑跛底Venus金星, 太白; śukra 戌羯羅Saturn土星, 鎭星; śanaiścara 賖乃以室折羅.
