VISHNU PURANA NOUN

vp.2.12 [paragraph continues] Bhauma Mars() is of gold, of an octagonal shape, drawn by eight horses, of a ruby red, sprung from fire. Vrihaspati Jupiter(), in a golden car drawn by eight pale coloured horses, travels from sign to sign in the period of a year: and the tardy paced sani Saturn() moves slowly along in a car drawn by piebald steeds. Eight black horses draw the dusky chariot of Rahu, and once harnessed are attached to it for ever. On the Parvas (the nodes, or lunar and solar eclipses), Rahu directs his course from the sun to the moon, and back again from the moon to the sun 5. The eight horses of the chariot of Ketu are of the dusky red colour of Lac, or of the smoke of burning straw.
