RĀHU,
s.
(The ascending node, fabled as a demon, the son
of Singhikā, with the tail of a dragon. His head was
cut off by Vishnu, at the churning of the ocean
but
being immortal, by having tasted the amrit, the head
and tail retained their separate existence, and were
transferred to the stellar sphere. The head, or Rāhu,
became the cause of eclipses, by endeavouring at various
times to swallow the sun and moon. The tail was
called Ketu, or the descending node, see PLANET) राहुः,
