9 Planets
In the realm of Vedic Astrology, Sun and Moon are considered as planets and their condition in a chart is considered to be perhaps the most essential when looking at a horoscope. Apart from Sun and Moon, the nodes of the moon namely the North Node Rahu and South Node Ketu also play an important role. In addition to this are the inner planets between sun to earth which are Mercury and Venus and the outer planets beyond the earth which are Mars, Jupiter and Saturn. Vedic Astrology stops with Saturn and does not go further to Uranus, Neptune and Pluto which is said to not have much effect on human life.
