8-Astrology has given enormous importance to lemon as an ingredient in many remedies. It is believed that lemon has the tendency to get rid of the evil eye (casting bad effects on something). It is worth noting that in India almost all the shopkeepers have a tendency to hang a lemon pierced with a black thread with seven green chilies tied on the either sides of the lemon (four chilies on top and three below) on their main entrance.

Those having well placed Venus would have a good taste for sour items like tamarind, pickle, sour fruit juice etc. Lemon is associated with Jupiter too. We cannot ignore the fact that the outer skin of lemon is yellow in color (Jupiter represents yellow color). In South India, lemon is extensively used in worship of deities and it is used in worshipping Jupiter too. ......SHIVOHAM...
