In the traditional Indian understanding of seasons and celestial rhythms, the period known as Nautapa occupies a special place. These are the nine days during which the Sun transits through Rohini Nakshatra, a lunar mansion symbolically associated with fertility, nourishment, growth, and the life-giving moisture that sustains crops and vegetation.
Ancient observers noticed a recurring pattern: when the Sun entered Rohini, the heat often intensified dramatically.
