Lord Brihaspati, is the son of Sage Angiras who possessed the knowledge of black magic, sorcery, and witchcraft and so the native would have an inclination towards such sciences. In an infamous ancient tale, Lord Brihaspati’s wife, Tara left his company to build a relationship with Moon. Lord Brihaspati took a vow of celibacy in pursuit of spirituality, which may have been the cause of this marital discord. Moon and Tara give birth to Mercury.
