Part 2
The
native of Chart No. 5 has an interesting array of planetary dispositions from
the 7th house to the 11th house-all in Dwirdwadasa but the lord of
the 10th, Mercury, in the 8th with exalted Sun, Lord of
the 9th, strongly placed in his own house, and lord of the 5th,
Saturn, the planet of democracy, occupying the 10th. The Ascendant
is rendered strong by the aspect of Jupiter, while the house of fortune is
rendered strong by the situation there of its own loard.
The
10th house is occupied by Saturn in the constellation of Rahu and
has thus become somewhat shaky. It was during Saturn’s Dasa that the native got
high political power, lost it and again secured it. It is likely that the
native’s political career may be in jeopardy before the end of Saturn’s major
period. The Dasamsa chart shows Saturn in the Ascendant capable of giving
political power and Jupiter in the 8th in conjunction with Kethu. By
the end of Rahu’s sub-period, the person may have to face embarrassing and
violent political situations especially that the Dasamsa shows Rahu in the 2nd
aspected by Mars.
No
dictator in his country wielding absolute power, has ever cared a jot for the
pawns of his country. For a dictator, absolute power is the only criterion. But
the native of Chart No. 6, who played a vital role in the victory of the Allies
during the Second World War, is, perhaps, an exception. Rahu Dasa was the most
significant in his life. Rahu is in the 8th house receiving the
aspect of lords of Lagna, the 9th and the 11th, viz.,
Venus, Mercury and the Sun respectively. Rahu,, it will be seen, is in the
asterism of Mars and exalted Mars aspects the 10th house. Jupiter
has secured Neechabhanga. This Mars-Jupiter conjunction made him force his
grandiose plans in utter contempt of contemporary leaders or of the effect upon
public opinion. This combination is also the source of formidable courage. The
native, in restoring his country back to order and prestige, showed daring
prowess. Rahu, while giving during his Dasa the results of Venus as well as
Mars, viz., popularity and Raja Yoga, also conferred on the native a certain
egoism or a false estimate of himself that he could be the leader of the whole
continent and not merely his own country. Rahu, consistent with his inherent
nature, gives flights of fancy. It is not, therefore, surprising that the
native envisaged a Europe protected by his own country’s shield of weapons. But
Rahu enabled him thanks to the Martian effects he had to give, to realize his
important aim of stabilizing his own country and making it strong and also of
immense value.
He
relinquished his position in Saturn’s sub-period within the major period of
Rahu. It will be seen that Saturn occupies the 12th house and from
Chandra Lagna he owns the 12th house. Here again the Dasamsa chart
is ominous: Rahu, the major lord occupying the 11th aspected by
Mars, lord of Lagna, and Saturn debilitated in the 6th with a
Maraka. He saved his country from the major disaster of a civil war and gave it
political stability and he was obliged to come out of the political scene after
the commencement of Saturn’s sub-period.
The
horoscopes illustrate above bring to focus the important dictum that unless
divested of the germs of fall inherent in a planetary set-up by other balancing
astrological factors, Raja Yoga may arise, the
native may experience power and he may also lose it either by death or
by being rejected by the people or by being overthrown.
A
horoscope must be viewed as a whole and not in isolated parts; otherwise it
would be like a blind man describing an elephant. The general fact that a Raja
Yoga is present leads one nowhere. Classical writers have prepared and matrix defining
the patters of combinations and their significance. Some cases present
insuperable difficulties to all but those skilled interpreters gifted with
intuition. Astrologers have their own idiosyncrasies; and under certain
psychological fallacies distortion of judgment cannot be ruled out.
