They are counted as two. In astrological calculations, they are the two lunar nodes. To find lunar nodes, assume a sphere of any size with Earth at the center. In reference of the Earth, find a plane which contains the orbit of the Moon. This plane intersects the sphere in a circle. Again in Earth's frame, consider the plane, which contains the orbit of the Sun. This plane also intersects the sphere in a circle.
So you have two circles. These two circles meet each other at two points. These two points are Rahu and Ketu.

Thanks for the explanation Avinash! To imagine the scenario that you have mentioned about Rahu and Ketu, I had to use my physics principles again after a long intermission! I have no idea about these things. Thanks to people like you, Chandra, Rajnish, Vibhishna, and Sita for providing various info about Ramayan and the interconnecting stories contained there.

Thanks for the explanation. I usually don't follow astrology, so this stuff would normally be only of peripheral (in a manner of speaking) interest 😊😊

Unlike Mallika & Chatter, I can visualize it. One question though - you said orbit of the sun. Does Vedic astrology assume that the sun revolves around the earth, as opposed to vice versa?

Yes. Vedic astrology takes into account the movement of the Sun round the Earth. But nothing wrong in it.
Even as per modern Physics, there is absolutely nothing unscientific if we treat Earth at rest and assume that Sun moves round the Earth. I am resisting the temptation to go into details because otherwise, I will be deviating from the topic of the thread.

You mean if the earth is the reference of everything else? Nothing wrong with it that way, but given that the moon revolves around the earth and the earth revolves around the sun, when you combine the 2, then it's not accurate to portray the earth as being the center of activity, since the combined activity of all 3 won't look the same.

But I agree with you - don't mean to digress.
