About Astrologically - during this battle the planets too played an important role. The Kumbh Mela takes place when the Jupiter enters Aquarius and the Sun enters Aries. This planetary position is said to medicate the waters of Ganges, and turns into nectar on these days, thereby attracting millions to purify their inner-self through holy bathing rituals. The pilgrimage occurs four times every twelve years, once at each of the four locations. Each twelve-year cycle includes the Maha (great) Kumbha Mela at Prayag (Allahabad), attended by millions of people, making it the largest pilgrimage gathering around the world. Kumbha is a unique event that blends religious and social features alike. Kumbha Mela is attended by millions of people on a single day. A ritual bath at a predetermined time and place is the major event of this festival. Other activities include religious discussions, devotional singing, mass feeding of holy men, women and the poor, and religious assemblies where doctrines are debated and standardized. Kumbha Mela (especially the Maha Kumbha Mela) is the most sacred of all the Hindu pilgrimages. Thousands of holy men/women (monks, saints, sadhus) grace the occasion by their presence. The auspiciousness of Kumbha Mela is in part attributed to the gathering of thousands of holy men/women at one place on earth

Wonderful portrayal of pride without insolence, a healthy ego and a serene appearing countenance. Charismatic individual as well, I'm sure. Nicely done.
