All is not Well for Telengana

Loksabha passes the 'Telengana Bill' on 18th February.The bill with all  amendments was passed at about 4.27 pm(http://news.in.msn.com/national/blog-telangana-bill-passed-in-lok-sabha). Time of Passing of  bill in Loksabha has to be taken as the  formation/birth time of the 29th state of India as the bill is classified as  a Finance bill and cannot be rejected by  Rajya Sabha.President's approval of the bill too is only a formality.For all purposes, time of passing of the bill in Loksabha is the authentic time of  birth of the new state.

Chart prepared for the time shows the ascendant as Cancer and the Ascendant lord Moon in the Third house Virgo. Here in is the chart prepared for the time :
Placement of the Ascendant lord in the third house makes the incumbent state to have a courageous temparement.Moon as the ascendant lord in the sign of Virgo shows the state would have a famous woman chief minister in future.

However, more planets in the Movable/chara rasis result in the formation of a Rajju Yoga which  causes the state to be of an ever changing nature,indecisive and a fickel mind

Fourth house in a mundane chart like this rules masses,natural resources,agriculture,mines,minerals,landed properties,peace,general stability,natural calamities,educational institutions,law and order,housing and communal harmony. In the chart, fourth house from the Ascendant,is Libra and  has a combination of the three great malefics Mars-Saturn-Rahu. Undoubtedly,the state would be much more afflicted by the naxal menace. All the above mentioned significations of the fourth house are sure to suffer. Malefics aspecting the 10 th house is calamitous to the Chief ministers,top executives,Representatives of people like MLA s and MLCs.  Saturn being in the rasi sandhi between Libra and Scorpio is not good for the 4 th house significations. Being in the rasi sandhi, Saturn becomes all the more malefic in this chart.

Co incidently,almost at the same time when the state formation is formalised in Loksabha, there was an announcement by the Atomic Minerals directorate that deposits of Ianthanite, a rare mineral of Uranium has  been found in Akkavaram village in Mahabub Nagar district (http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/city/hyderabad/Ianthinite-rare-uranium-oxide-mineral-discovered-in-Mahbubnagar-district/articleshow/30623749.cms) which is now part of Telengana.This discovery is the result of the combination of Saturn-Rahu and Mars in fourth house as the house rules over mines and minerals as said above.

The state would be soon classified  as a earth quake prone zone with higher risk than that before.Mars transits back and forth over its natal position in the year would cause turbulent and violent situations apart from causing wide fluctuations in the land prices.Mars the bhoomi karaka in the Fourth house which rules over the lands causes the land prices to plummet to all time lows.

More areas with deposits of minerals would be identified in the near future.

Vimsottari Dasa of Moon- Saturn is running now. While is Moon is a benefic by being the lagna lord,Saturn is a malefic by being the 7th and 8th lord in the chart.In addition, as Saturn is in Rasi sandhi as said above between the fourth and fifth houses and would cause some unwanted situations. This can be confirmed from reading the 'Ashtamsa' Chart which shows sudden and unexpected events. The Saturn transits, foraying into Scorpio and turning retrograde and returning to Libra would cause  unwarrented situations very soon.

Transit strengths of Saturn in Scorpio,in Ashtamasa, are very low .The current period till March 24 th and again from November this year till end of 2017,when Saturn transits Scorpio, Unrest  would be at its peak in the new state.Main leaders would have to be very very cautious as Saturn transiting Scorpio would be aspecting the natal Ashtamsa positon of Mars,the 10 th lord in  Rasi chart.

The Jupiter-Saturn return,Mars and the bifurcation of Andhra Pradesh

When KCR started his fast unto death in December 2009,Mars is in his sign of debilitation in Karkataka

Sakala Janula Samme another land mark in the movement, was started on the 12 th September,2011 when Mars was again in Karkataka.The 'Samme' was successful and went on for 42 days.

When the Central Cabinet approved the Telengana Bill on 3rd October,2013 ,Mars again was in the sign.

Mars is said to exert his influence much on South India,which is now very much evident.

And what a time for the last nail!!!! All Three Strongest malefic planets Saturn,Rahu and Mars are now transiting over the Natal Ascendant of Andhra Pradesh and see the turmoil happening.

Most important is the 'Return' of Jupiter and Saturn to their natal positions 'simultaneously' (to the positions where they were when AP was formed in 1953 without Telengana) and Andhra Pradesh reverting back to its initial position of being without Telengana.

Aam Aadmi Party

Started on 26 th November,2012,the Chart of AAP shows features very characteristic of its way of functioning what we are seeing now.
First is the placement of Mars - Pluto combination in the Sagittarius ascendant.This gives the outfit a very impulsive nature and violent too

Second is the Sun- Rahu in the 12 th house to the ascendant.This combination makes the party act against the authorities always. Both the afore said combinations denote danger to the main leaders. Both the above combinations may cause the outfit to tread into a self destructive path.
 
 Third is the placement of Saturn-Venus-Mercury in the 11th house,which results in dubious associations,like the one which it has now with the Congress.This placement of the Saturn in the 11th house also results in wealth acquisition by questionable means. The party would be funded by Congress in the coming elections to stop BJP in UP,Rajasthan and Gujarat.

Fifth house of Followers is significantly weak and importantly, the on coming transit of Saturn is too weak. The rise to power and fame of the party may only be a bubble and as per me, the party's effectiveness would only be till November this year and after that when Saturn transits over the Natal Sun in the chart the party may be dissolved altogether.

Jiddu Krishnamurthy a spiritual revolutionary - an astrological perspective

Born into a Telugu Brahmin family in Madanapalle,Andhra Pradesh,Sri Jiddu Krishna Murthy became a well known speaker and writer on Philosohical and spiritual subjects.He was born on May 12th, 1895 at about 12.23 am.A write up on his life and achievements has been given on the wikipedia at the below link:

He wrote books like 'The First and Last Freedom','The Only revolution' and the Krishnamurthi's notebook. He claimed allegiance to no nationality,religion,caste or philosophy.His ideas were quite revolutionary at his time. 
Above given is the vedic chart prepared as per his birth details.
On a study of his chart we can see the following placements and configurations of planets which caused him to be a philosophist World Teacher:

Ascendant is placed in Capricorn.The lord of the sign, Saturn is placed in Libra his exaltation sign which is the 10 th house from his Ascendant.This placement of Saturn forms a Powerful Sasa Mahapurusha Yoga.It is this Yoga which resulted in his world wide fame as a spiritualist.The  yoga made him a wanderer physically and also psychologically in search of truth .The Saturn so placed in Libra, is conjunct 'Uranus',the planet of altruism and revolution. Uranus is the planet which brings about drastic changes in age old practices and beliefs.

Fourth house is the one which signifies the state of mind and thought process of the native. The conjunction of Saturn-Uranus aspecting his fourth house and the exalted Sun placed in the house is the chief causative factor of his revolutionary way of spiritual thinking,beliefs and also his writings. This is very evident from the names of his books  'The First and the Last Freedom' and 'The Only Revolution'.

Sun's placement in his exaltation sign in Aries in his fourth house shows his exalted state of mind from birth and is the reason behind him being identified as one with an amazing aura around him by the Clairvoyant Theosophist Charles Webster Leadbeater.

The placement of Uranus in the 10 th house in conjunction with Saturn, the planet of detachment and in opposition to the natural/naisargika Atma Karaka Sun , induced in him, a continuous and progressive spiritual evolution which caused him to say "I maintain that truth is a pathless land, and you cannot approach it by any path whatsoever, by any religion, by any sect. That is my point of view, and I adhere to that absolutely and unconditionally. Truth, being limitless, unconditioned, unapproachable by any path whatsoever, cannot be organized; nor should any organization be formed to lead or coerce people along a particular path. ... This is no magnificent deed, becaause I do not want followers, and I mean this. The moment you follow someone you cease to follow Truth. I am not concerned whether you pay attention to what I say or not. I want to do a certain thing in the world and I am going to do it with unwavering concentration. I am concerning myself with only one essential thing: to set man free. I desire to free him from all cages, from all fears, and not to found religions, new sects, nor to establish new theories and new philosophies".  

His continuous spiritual evolution made him drift away from the basic ideologies of the Theosophical society,and there by distanced him from Annie Beasant and Charles Leadbeater his mentors from child hood and led him to eventually dissolve 'The Order of the Star',an organisation which was formed by the Theosophical society. Uranus in his 10 th house  spurred him to make all efforts to break free from every kind of limitation and brought about a strong tendency in him  to be independant and unconventional in his endeavors.

Moon in the 12 th house in his chart, in the constellation of Moola,indicates a mystical ability and an interest in spirituality.The moon in his chart is aspected by Saturn, the planet of detachment. In 1922, Sri Krishna Murthy had a life altering experience which he describes as a mystical union, during which he experiences a state of 'Otherness'. He continued having this experience all through his life thereafter.

Saturn's aspect over his Moon and also Sun in his chart forms a Dasee Prabhava Yoga and shows him to be the son of a servant maid or influenced by her as per Sambhu hora prakasika.In this context it was Annie Beasant who adopted him on behalf of the Theosophical society. Sri Krishna Murthy considered Annie Beasant as his surrogate mother as he was trained under her supervision.

Placement of Saturn, the lagna Lord in a Kendra and aspected by Jupiter results in a powerful Chamara Yoga,which is the reason of his eloquence.

Neptune,the planet of divine mysticism and  Pluto, the planet of regeneration and transformation in  conjunction in the 5 th house of creative intelligence and procreation  gave him an understanding of the mystical world which is beyond the course of a single human life and Mercury ,the planet of communications, conjunct with the Neptune-Pluto here, gave Sri Krishna Murthy an uncanny ability to communicate easily, the ideas of mystical or other worldly flavour.

Warren Buffet's horoscope - Some Observations

Warren Buffet is widely considered as the most successful investor of the 20th century.He is one of the top wealthiest men in the world with his net worth in 2013 estimated to be about 59 million.Here is the link to the wikipedia writeup about him:http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Warren_Buffett
He is born on 30th of August 1930 at 3.00 pm in Omaha City of Nebraska State, United States of America.The Birth data is rated with an 'A' on the astro data bank website.Here is a link to the writeup on astro data bank site about him : http://www.astro.com/astro-databank/Buffett,_Warren_E.
His chart prepared as per the birth details given on the astro data bank site is given adjacently.The chart shows placement of Ninth lord of fortune in the Ninth house,Tenth lord of status,fame and success in the Tenth house and the Eleventh lord of Gains and friends in the Eleventh house. These placements of planets in their own houses are sure the cause of  his abundant success in his business of investing. Apart from these factors we can also see the Naisargika Dhanakaraka Jupiter being the lagna lord aspecting the Sagittarius Ascendant.Retrograde Saturn being the Second lord of wealth is placed in the Ascendant and is aspected by Jupiter.

Jupiter,the Lagna Lord and also being the Dhana karaka happens to be placed in the Labha Aroodha(A11),in the sign Gemini. Significantly,Rahu being the Atmakaraka is in the sign Aries which happens to be the 11th from A11.Jupiter in the A11 resulted in his knowing where to invest and when to invest.

Mars,the Navamsa dispositor of the 10th lord Mercury is in a parivartana Yoga with Jupiter,the lagna lord.
By virtue of being the 5th lord of Investments and also 12th lord of Charities in the Rasi chart,and by dispositing Mercury the 10 th lord in Navamsa,Mars caused Buffet to take Investing as his profession and at the end donate a very large part of it to charities.Significantly,Mercury is also conjunct the Lagna Lord Jupiter in the Navamsa.

In 2006,he announced that 85% of his fortune would be donated to Gates foundation,started by Bill Gates the most famous Microsoft chief.

In Warren Buffet's chart we can see the 11th lord Venus in rasi sandhi at 0 Li 46 and is closely conjunct Ketu the planet which signifies detachment.He made the announcement of donation in 2006,in the Rahu-Jupiter period.

On Saturn's short term transit from 9th February,2014 till 24th March

Saturn temporarily enters Scorpio around 9th February and will be transiting the sign for 43 days before turning retrograde on March 2 nd and returns to Libra on the 24th March. This transit would be a kind of trailer of the events that would happen in two and half years starting October 23 rd 2014.So watch out for the slight changes in the pattern of events in all aspects of your life in the mentioned time frame.

On a mundane level,Saturn hovering over the signs Libra(Vayu Tatwa) and Scorpio(Jala Tatwa) would bring about unseasonal storms and increase in seismic activity.

Saturn would be transiting the constellation of Visakha which represents Goa,Karnataka and Western Maharashtra.

The Chinese,The Tanganas(People living north of Sarayu river),Trigarthas(People of Punjab),everything of bright red or crimson,saffron colour will suffer.

Dr.Manmohan Singh's Horoscope - Some Observations

This is the chart of Dr.Manmohan Singh Prime minister of India.His birth details are given on the astrosage web site.On a study of his chart we can see four planets Moon,Mercury,Saturn and Rahu in their own signs resulting in his high success and becoming the Prime Minister of the country.

The conjunction of Mercury and Sun in his 10 th house of Status,Profession and authority is forming a Sreenatha Yoga which is another reason of his reaching to the top position. This yoga is said to confer power equal to that of Indra on the native.He became the Prime minister on the 22nd May 2004 when he was running Rahu-Mercury.Both planets are benefics in his chart as afore said.

There are some negative aspects in his chart :
1.Mercury which is forming the Sreenatha Yoga as said above is 'Combust'.

2.His ascendant lord Jupiter is placed in his 9th house Leo which is owned by Sun,the King among planets but is conjunct the Rahu/Ketu axis.This conjunction results in a Guru Chandala Yoga which results in the native associating with lowly people though he is very righteous.

3.Moon in his chart while placed in his own sign is in opposition to Retrograde Saturn.As per Sambhu Hora Prakasika, this results in a yoga which is ironically named as DAASEE PRABHAAVA YOGA.This yoga results in the native being influenced by a servent maid

While benefic placements of planets have made him Prime Minister of the country, negativity associated with the planets which are forming strong power conferring yogas might have made him alllegedly a remotely controlled Prime Minister of the Country

The Saturn - Mars Mutual aspect and Discovering the Great Canyon of Greenland

Two days back on the 30th of August, Scientists have announced discovering a Great Canyon under the thick Ice sheet of Greenland.The discovery was made by NASA's technologically advanced radars. The Canyon has been estimated to be longer than the Grand Canyon of USA and is about 800 Kms in length  and 2600 feet deep at some places.Links briefing about the discovery have been given herein:1.Greenland's Great Canyon 2.Radars find a Canyon longer than the Grand Canyon 

A canyon is a deep gorge/valley flanked on both sides by mountains and with a river flowing through it like the one found in North America.

Apart from the spurt in confrontations between world countries on the issue of Syria and escalation in other forms of violence, i feel, discovery of the Great Canyon in Green land, beneath the ice cover is one more event resulting due to the ongoing mutual aspect of Mars -  Saturn and the Saturn's conjunction with Rahu.Mars, currently is in the watery sign of Cancer in debilitation and is aspected by Saturn from Libra.Mars as we know is the Bhoomi karaka and signifies all that which pertains to land. Saturn on the other hand is the planet of restriction and obstruction and by this nature is the karaka for formation of Ice. While all of water on the earth is signified by Moon,  ice is formed only due to the Saturnine influence on water. All the areas which are covered by ice like the North  and South Poles and in this context Greenland can be said to be under the influence of Saturn as they are covered by thick ice layer.

Saturn's aspect over the watery sign of Cancer signifies an area with Icy surface and presence of Mars in the sign shows the land beneath the said surface.Conjunction of Rahu with Saturn signifies previously unknown knowledge as Rahu is the significator of mysteries and Saturn signifies secrets.

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.
