Rama sent me a photo of durga stalin worshipping a camel (which is done only in Rajasthan) at Kanchi temple. And preponderance of probability is this article:
In Hinduism, the camel symbolizes both an animal and a source of danger when Jupiter and Saturn align, affecting safety. Additionally, its significance is calculated through a specific astrological method involving Mars and Capricorn. Camels are animals that are considered in the context of the sixth house, representing a specific element within the scope of astrological analysis related to the sixth house. This sahama is determined by subtracting Mars from Capricorn and adding the ascendant. The text provides the method to perform this calculation. An animal, and danger from it is a negative outcome when Jupiter is joined to Saturn, impacting safety. HAYANARATHA: The Sixth House (ṣaṣṭha-bhāva) Next, the judgement of the sixth house (ṣaṣṭha-bhāva-vicāra). Concerning that, Caṇḍeśvara describes what is to be considered from the sixth house (ṣaṣṭhabhāva): Ill health (asvāsthya/asvāsthyatā), boils (sphoṭa), cattle (go), camels (uṣṭra), servants (dāsa), harsh (krūra-karman) and cruel actions (ugra-karman), low work (aparakṛtya[?]), fear (śaṅkā), fighting (yuddha), enemies (ari), one’s uncle (tan-mātula), buffaloes (māhiṣa) and disease (roga) are to be considered (vicintya) from the sixth house (ripusaṃjña-bhāva). Here, too, judgement (vicāra) is [to be made] as before. Now, [these] configurations [are given] in the Jīrṇatājika: If Saturn as ruler of the year is in the sixth, beset by malefics and retrograde, compounded illnesses, eye disease, bleeding, fever, abdominal tumours and so on are produced. If Jupiter is thus, there will be disease of [the humour of] wind and jaundice; [but] if Jupiter forms a kambūla in the year, one should declare the illness to be a minor one. If Mars is thus, there is illness of the blood; [disorder of ] bile if the sun is thus, and if the moon is thus, men will have illness of phlegm. If Mercury is thus, the illness is mainly of [the humour of] wind. If Venus is such, there is illness of bile; [but] if Venus, being such, should occupy a human sign, it is said to make illness of phlegm. The sun as ruler of the year joined to a malefic in the twelfth gives pain in the eyes. But in Tājikabhūṣaṇa [4.49], the result of Saturn as ruler of the year being retrograde, wherever it is placed, is said to take the form of compounded illnesses: If Saturn in retrograde motion is ruler, it makes [disorders of] the three humours in [that] year. [And] in the Tājikatilaka [it is said]: If Saturn as ruler of the year is in retrograde motion, there will be compounded illnesses and suffering from ailments of the blood. And Vāmana describes the results of Saturn, Jupiter and Mars, [respectively], as rulers of the ascendant of the nativity occupying the sixth [house of the revolution]: If Saturn, ruling the ascendant of the nativity, occupies the sixth in the year, being retrograde, there is suffering from the three humours. If Jupiter, ruling the ascendant, occupies the sixth house in the year, beset by malefics, there is suffering from [the humour of] wind. If Mars is thus, there is illness produced by blood; if Mercury, afflicted by malefices, is such, there will be much suffering from [the humour of] wind. Camel worship is not practiced in TN and that too at Kanchipuram.
