Tuesday – Angaraka – Mars
angārakam āshrayāmyaham vinatā srita jana mandāram mangalavāram bhūmikumāram vāram vāram.
shringāraka mesha vrshcika rāshyadhipatim raktāngam raktāmbarādidhram shakti sūladharam mangalam kambugalam manjula tara padayugalam mangala dāyaka meshaturangam makarottungam
I take refuge again in Angaraka (lit. glowing charcoal), the divine Mandara tree, to the humble dependent devotees, the presiding deity of Tuesday, and the son of Earth.
Who is the Lord of the cherished houses of Mesa and Vrischika (Constellations Aries and Scorpio), with red limbs, who wears the red dress and is the bearer of the sword and trident. The auspicious one, with a beautiful neck, with lovely feet, bestower of auspiciousness, riding on the Goat, and whose higher aspis (aphelion) is in Makara Rasi (constellation Capricorn).
