Born in the winter solstice

In Brihat Samhita, Chapter 51:"The elephants that are born in the winter solstice (uttara-yapa) during an eclipse of the Sun or the Moon are named Bhadra. It is said that pearls are produced in the heads and in the sockets of the tusks of elephants of Airavata's family at the Moon's conjunction with the asterism Pusya or Sravana synchronous with a Sunday or Monday, as well as of the Bhadra class.


The elephant pearl (Gaja Muktha): The elephant pearl is found within the cavity of elephant tusks and is a rare bony growth. It is not an actual pearl. Some varieties of Elephant Pearl are made up of a heavy dark brown substrate, while others are heavy balls, of varying colors, about the size of a Brain Coral, often with a hemispheric division.-Occult science
