	=== Origin of Constellation ===		=== Origin of Constellation ===
	In relation to Palelintangan, Děpat is referred to as ~~Rahu~~, which in Vedic tradition is the lunar ascending node. Meanwhile, Rahu, in Indian tradition, was adapted into Balinese mythology as Kala Rau (the giant Rau). The central plot revolves around the beheading of Kala Rau because he disguised himself as the god Kuwera in order to obtain tirta amerta, which can grant one immortality and defeat the evil giants of Balidwipa (the island of Bali). His disguise was blown, and the god Vishnu threw his chakra into Kala Rau's neck. Kala Rau's body split in two. His head floated in the sky and was named Rau. The rest of his body was thrown to Earth by the gods and turned into a mortar. This body became Ketu in the Indian Vedic tradition. Out of hatred for the moon goddess who had rejected his love, Rau's head (Rahu) swallowed the moon, causing an eclipse. The people of Balidwipa, grieving the loss of the Moon, began to beat the mortar in an attempt to save the goddess Ratih. Beating the mortar (Kala Rau's body) was believed to hurt her, causing the moon to escape through her neck and return to the sky.<ref>Setyowati, Melinda, "Mitos Kala Rau," Sastra lisan (2017) https://www.scribd.com/document/401379597/Mitos-Kala-Rau</ref>		In relation to Palelintangan, Děpat is referred to as Ketu, which in Vedic tradition is the lunar ascending node.

	In essence, Rahu-Ketu and Děpat~~-Laweyan~~ are distinct. Kala Rau's origins are not from the ~~asceticism~~ of the goddess Durga, ~~like~~ Děpat and Laweyan, but ~~rather~~ from the descendants of Wipracitti and Singhika. However, in the Palelintangan ~~tradition~~, they ~~apparently~~ associate ~~Děpat~~ with Rahu~~.

Kala Rau's origins are not from the meditation of the goddess Durga, as Děpat and Laweyan do, but from the descendants of Wipracitti and Singhika. However, it seems that in the case of Palelintangan, they associate Laweyan with Rahu, thus giving the impression that lintang Děpat is the same as Ketu, symbolized by the lunar descending node.
