Jupiter's Transit of Gemini - Trigger for Indian Economic reforms and liberalisation

 In the wake of continuous deflation of the Indian rupee in recent times, i wanted to study the astrological factors which may have contributed to the fall in the rupee value at present and also in the history of Independant India using the Indian Independance chart erected for 15th August 1947. Jupiter in the Independance chart is the 8th and 11th lord and his transit of Gemini is for sure bringing upheavals in the Indian economy not only in the current times but also in the past. A writeup on the Indian Economic reforms and liberalisation is on the Wikipedia site. The link is given herein : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Economic_liberalisation_in_India . As per the Writeup, economic reforms were attempted in India earlier in 1966,1985 and then in 1991. The earlier two attempts were unsuccessful and were reversed within short time. But the reforms made in 1991 were successful.

In 1966,Jupiter was transiting the Sign Gemini. Gemini in the Indian Independance chart has an SAV score of only 19 out of 56. In the year Rupee was devalued by the Government under extraordinary conditions,when foreign aid was cut off by USA and other developed countries.In 1985,Jupiter was transiting the sign Capricorn which is his debilitation sign and with an SAV Score of 20 out of 56.In this year economic reforms were initiated by Rajiv Gandhi but were stopped in the year 1987.
Jupiter is the Natural/Naisargika Dhana Karaka along with being the lord of Gains(11th lord) and also of impediments(8th lord) in the Indian context and his transit of the signs with lowest Bindus in the SAV chart is surely triggering economic upheavals which result in the corrective economic reforms and liberalisation.Also Gemini is the Second house of wealth from Taurus ascendant.

In 1978,when Jupiter was again transiting in Gemini, it is around the period when the growth in GDP was very less at 3.5% and less than that of Pakistan and other third world countries 

In 1990,the economy was again in doldrums with the country unable to pay up for the balance of payments and has mortgaged the 'Gold' reserves(Gold is signified by Jupiter) of the country to bail out from the crisis.In the year Jupiter was again transiting the sign Gemini and in the year 1991 July economic reforms were brought in by the then Sri PV Narasimha Rao led Congress government. 

The next transit of Jupiter in Gemini was in the year 2001 and the trend was broken when a strong Saturn with a BAV of 7 out 8 was transiting the sign Taurus which is the ascendant of India having an SAV of 44 out of 56 which is undoubtedly an exceptionally strong transit of Saturn.This transit resulted in the economy growing leaps and bounds during this transit of Saturn and bypassed the negative effects of Jupiter's transit in Gemini at that time.

Now again in 2013,Jupiter is transiting in the Sign Gemini from  the end of May this year and is causing the current economic crisis. This crisis would surely trigger another phase in the economic reforms/liberalisation in the coming year when Jupiter transits in the sign Cancer,which is his exaltation sign.

Pluto's Trail - Muslim Conquests - The Indian Connections

Pluto's transit of Sagittarius seems to have an Indian Connection. I have observed three instances where in the Transit has caused the Mohommaden invaders to enter the Indo - Pak  territory from the Arab lands in  history. 

In the year 1024, Mohammad Ghazini invaded India for the first time.He swept accross the Thar desert in Rajasthan defeating the tiny Hindu Rajput Kingdoms on his way to finally destroy and plunder the wealth at Somnath temple in Gujarat. He subsequently established Ghaznavid rule in Northern India.Mohammed Ghazini is said to have personally hammered the Siva Linga in the temple into pieces and carried them all the way back to use the pieces in building foot steps of a mosque.In the year 1024,Pluto was transiting in Sagittarius in the constellation of Poorvashadha, along with Rahu/Ketu axis in opposition to Uranus transiting in Ardra in Gemini.

In the year 1521,Babur, descendant of the Mongol-Timurid dynasty and who established the Mughal empire in India set his foot hold in the Sindh which is now part of Pakistan.later on he invaded Delhi in the year 1526,and defeated the Sultan of Delhi in the battle which is known as the battle of Panipat. In the year 1521,Pluto was again transiting in Sagittarius in the constellation of Poorvashadha.Before Babur,Timur in 1390, has invaded India and has returned back after plundering wealth but did not set up his empire. 

The above two instances show that long lasting Mohammaden empires were established in India when Pluto was transiting in Sagittarius. It is noteworthy in this context that the constellations of Poorvashadha and Uttarashaadha represent the regions of Gujarat,Rajasthan and Parts of Pakistan,as per Brihat Samhitha of Varaha Mihira. The Invaders evidently came through these routes.

Apart from the above two dynasties, Delhi was ruled by Ghori, Khilji and Tughlaq Dynasties.Mohammad Ghori did not have any offsprings and the dynasty did not last after Ghori.Slave dynasty came to Power.Later on Khilji and Tughlaq dynastyies ruled.All these were powerful families which settled in India from the time of Ghaznavid rule. Shershah Suri who defeated Humayun too was the Governor of Bengal before he ruled Delhi.Nadir Shah came defeated the Delhi Sultan and went back but did not establish his empire.

In the recent times we know that Osama Bin Laden who organised the attack on  Twin Towers in New york, USA,sifted through all the way from Tora Bora in Afghanistan to Abbottabad in Pakistan which is just some 250 Kms from Srinagar in Jammu Kashmir.He seems to follow the Pluto's trail!!! Pluto entered Sagittarius in January 2006 and is still currently transiting Sagittarius in the constellation of Poorvashadha.
