Why is the Moon Represented as a Snake?
The term "Pambu" (snake) in Pambu Panchangam is derived from the way the Moon moves across the sky. Due to the gravitational push and pull of various planets, the Moon’s path is not a straight line but rather a wavy pattern, resembling the trail left by a snake on sand. This natural movement is why the Pambu Panchangam is named so, making it unique and highly regarded in Tamil astrology.
