Hindu people also enunciate lord Sun with other names as Bhaskar, Surya, Ark, Arun, Bhanu, Dinakar, Ravi, Dhinakar or Dhinakrit, Thanpna and Pusha. In every 'Makar Sankranti', people pray to lord Surya and give a lot of prestige to him. Astrologers believe that this special occasion comes when the Sun shows its transition from Dhanu Rashi (Sagittarius sign) to Makar Rashi (Capricorn sign), and this festival comes every January 14.
