What is relation between 108, Astrology, Religion and Liberation?

I am reading some article about astrology & liberation while researching my horoscope i come through a page of Revati nakshatra which is last nakshatra. All parts of Revati fall in the sign of Pisces ruled by Jupiter and therefore, this nakshatra comes under the influence of Pisces and Jupiter. Pisces is a sign known to be associated with liberation of soul.Lord Vishnu is considered as the final presiding deity of Revati.Lord Vishnu is also consider deity of Liberation.Also Divine Planet Jupiter is consider for Liberation. Now i multiply 27 nakshatra with 4 pada then i got 108. then i remember japa mala has 108 beads..then i search net by significance of 108 and got interesting results...

Astronomically, there are 27 constillations in our galaxy, and each one them

has 4 directions, and 27 * 4 = 108, In other words the number 108 covers

the whole galaxy.

The 27 nakshatras or lunar constellations spread over the 4 elements - fire, earth, air, water or the 4 directions - north, south, east, and west. This also constitutes the whole of existence. 27 x 4 = 108

Planets and Houses: In astrology, there are 12 houses and 9 planets. 12 times 9 equals 108

The distance between the earth and sun = 108 times the diameter of the sun

Distance between the earth and the moon = 108 times the moon's diameter

The diameter of the sun = 108 times the diameter of the earth.

In one minute, we breathe in approximately 15 times, in 1 hour 900 times,

and in 12 hours 10800 times, and in a day 10800 * 2 times. A day consists

of 24 hours, and if we set aside half the day for our day to day routines,

then one can spend 12 hours for recitation of one's idol. Therefore, the

maximmum number of times that one can recite "mantra", or perform "Jap" are

10800. If one wants to obtain 100% benefit of its jap, then performing

jap 108 times will give you the benefit of 100%. That's why in a "Mala",

there are 108 beads. It is written in Vedas, that 1 Jap corresponds to

1 mala (which has 108 beads), therefore performing jap of 108 malas will

result in 100% benefit.

The number 9 represents wholeness and 108 when added together equals 9. 1+0+8 = 9. Interestingly, if you multiply 9 times ANYTHING, the answer is always 9 when you add the numbers together. Try it! 1x9= 9. 2x9=18 1+8=9. 285x9=2565 2+5+6+5=18 1+8=9. 8543x9=76887 7+6+8+8+7=36 3+6=9 The logic behind this is that 9 represents wholeness or God and God times anything is always God since God is all there is!

According to Indian scriptures, letter 9 corresponds to Lord Brahma (the

creator of universe). Mathematically, the interesting property of 9 is

9x1 = 9

9 x 2 = 18 (8+1 = 9)

9 * 3 = 27 (7+2 = 9)

9 * 12 = 108 (1+0+8 = 9)

Powers of 1, 2, and 3 in math: 1 to 1st power=1; 2 to 2nd power=4 (2x2); 3 to 3rd power=27 (3x3x3). 1x4x27=108

In Hindu religion, number 9 is very important. Keeping the importance of

number 9, Rishi Vyas has created 9 Purans, 108 MahaPuran (Upnishads).
