Interesting question. If I took a stab at the answer, it is because vedic astrology is about the study of the impact of the celestial bodies that are the closest to the Earth on the people and the events and occurences on Earth. However to be certain I have forwarded your question to Swamiji and will inform when he does. I put up a post recently /message/16375 on the North and South Nodes of the moon. They are not related to the bright and dark fortnights of the moon. I have asked Swamiji if they are in any way more important than the other grahas and will post on the forum when I hear back from him. Hope this helps. Stay tuned for Swamiji's answers.
