As described in old Vedic texts, each of India\u2019s 12 Jyotirlingas is tightly linked to the energies of the various zodiac signs. As a result, the use of lunar signs (Rashis) is closely related to them in Vedic astrology.

A demon called Daaruka used to terrorize the people living in the surrounding region. At that point, the lord Shiva emerged as Nageshwar to guard his devotees from the demon Daaruka.
