Distinctive Features of the Nativity:

 Jennifer Aniston Photo

Public Aura

  • Arudha lagna = Vrishabha = bhava-9

  • Aniston's image in the public imagination (arudha lagna) seems to be as a person blessed in every way, whose beauty is enhanced through virtuous conduct and hatha- yoga

  • 10th-from-Arudha lagna = public imagination regarding special notoriety or reputation = Kumbha, bhava-6 = divorce

  • One of the unusual features of Aniston's public profile is that she is very famous for her marital difficulties and divorce (note Shani/Rahu and karako bhavo nashto = uchchamasha Meena-Shukra  in bhava-7)

  • Chandra in bhava-3

Physical appearance Guru-Kanya + Ketu in lagna

L-5 Shani + L-9 uchchamsha Shukra + Rahu = yuvati bhava ; this trio casts drishti upon karakamsha Tanu bhava = physical body appearance

Karakamsha
  • = bhava-1, Kanya

  • Karakamsha = that for which one is best known = bhava-1 = A nna-maya-kosha

  • Ms. Aniston is certainly best known for her exemplary physical body appearance = Kanya-karaka health science (hatha yoga and "healthy lifestyle" argumentation)

  • The typical Kanya complexion is Budha-dominated, tending toward a neutral/pale coloration within the native's own gene-pool.

~~ BPHS Chapter 12, shloka 4 "A benefic in Lagna will give a pleasing appearance, while a malefic will make one bereft of good appearance.
  • Felicity of the body will be enjoyed, if Lagna is drishtied by, or yuti with a benefic."

Remarkably strong and athletic L-3 + L-8 Mangala Raja Yoga Shad Bala Jennifer Aniston
Kuja = Darakaraka = significator of spouse and of the social relationship of marriage

The Dara-karaka = the graha which holds the 7th-from-the-highest degree within the radix. Kuja is always a trouble-maker for Kanya lagna. Aniston's darakaraka is her unfortunate L-3+L-8 Kuja.

  • Note Kuja's strength in Shad-bala (quite high).

  • Swakshetra Kuja + L-11 Chandra will bring her extraordinary wealth in the Chandra-Mangala Yoga. However, as the dara-karaka, malefic Kuja is inauspicious.

  • Prominent spousal behaviors include excess mentalism and focus on self-made wealth (L-3) along with secret affairs leading to divorce (L-8). The L-8 is a divorce karaka for certain when Kuja is an empowered malefic house lord, as Mangala always is for Kanya lagna.

  • Das/Behari says of Kuja/Vrischika/3: "You may be engaged in many secret activities. You will be bold, courageous, and able to achieve your objectives, however difficult they may be. You will be a trouble-shooter; in fact, your true mettle emerges only through opposition and difficulties"

  • Kuja is neechcha in navamsha, another indicator of emotional difficulties in the spousal characteristics.

Kuja

For Kanya lagna, Kuja = the notoriously self-destructive  L-3 + L-8

  •   + empowered in swakshetra

  • + neechcha in navamsha

Kuja's drishti to bhava-6 is good for overcoming enemies, and Kuja's drishti to bhava-10 is excellent for work energy and getting ahead in career. The native will have a very powerful and wealth-generating career. However the auspice for emotional contentedness in marriage is harmed.

Damage to lungs through grief, often an underbelly of emotionally self-destructive action focused in lungs/shoulder/arms/hands when Kuja is associated with bhava-3 and neechcha Chandra.

  • E.g., cigarette smoking despite all the healthy-lifestyle implications of Guru/Kanya/1.

  • Kuja + Chandra in 3 or 9 can also manifest as arm-cutting in youth (see Angelina Jolie).

Kuja dosha upon 7th-from- Chandra Kuja rules neechchamsha Vrischika Chandra

Seventh from Chandra = Vrishabha

7th-from-Chandra receives Kuja Drishti resulting in a Kuja Dosha of some magnitude.

Rahu in bhava-7 =

 Passion to be recognized as an equal in bargains or contracts with those of higher status, although one has not yet earned the right to genuine equality.

  • Desires to "marry up". In a spiritualized nativity, particularly fierce placements of Rahu-7 may elevate the partnership ambitions so high that one seeks union with divine entities.

  • Engages in exotic or taboo-breaking counseling-advising relationships. May be a wheeler-dealer, negotiator, contract-maker, facilitator, middle-man, or broker. Special propensity to enter into promises with privileged foreigners. Via deal-making instincts, ambitious promises, and veiled concessions made during the bargain, one may become involved in unsustainable alliances that are "over one's head".

  • Desires to "marry up" but due to these pressures, unstable and ambitious Rahu in 7 generally indicates several marriages or multiple attempts to re-engage in a definitive contractual trust.

Ketu in bhava-1 = Rahu in bhava-7  
  • Ambivalence (Ketu) toward one's personal appearance and individual identity
  • Desire (Rahu) to be recognized as a partner of powerful persons or corporations
Ketu + Guru This combination can go in the tamasic direction or the sattvic direction. Ms. Aniston's well known practice of hatha yoga may eventually stabilize the mind enough to ground a meditation practice.
ARUDHA LAGNA

Bhava-9 Vrishabha

= lord uchchamsha Shukra + Rahu = public perception, the native is considered to be distinctively attractive (Shukra) materially yet her celebrity reputation involves a pathetic twist of being "too sweet" to enjoy a pragmatic human marriage with children.

Bhava-9 divine models = 6/8 angle from bhava-4 = roots, home and family

Atmakaraka = Surya

  • Radix Surya in 5 shows the soul's orientation to a path of realization via theatre and performance art.

  • Surya in the navamsha lagna shows physical body destiny, including fashion modeling of Kanya (unmarried) quality. The native has a pleasantly girlish look.

Attitude toward Marriage

 

Profile for husband(s)

 First husband is indicated by:

  1. general Karaka Guru -

  2. Dara-karaka

  3. L-7 Radix

  4. Graha in bhava-7 (if any)

  5. seventh-from-Chandra

  6. Graha in seventh-from-Chandra (if any)

  7. L-7 navamsha and occupants of 7th navamsha (if any)

Kanya = navamsha lagna = marriage is an argument, a broken contract, and a service relationship.

  • With Surya and Rahu in lagna, the marriage behaviors include extreme detail orientation and a tendency toward neurotic, subconsciously driven perfectionism.

  • Marriage behaviors may include mental agitation or volatile argumentative complaining About imperfections (Rahu/Kanya).

  • The native's behavior in marriage = L-1+L-10 Budha/Makara/5. Budha = the difficult but gainful L-8+L-11 from neechchamsha Chandra.
Budha

Budha = lord of both navamsha lagna and navamsha 10th bhava. The native understands marriage as a support for dramatic performance (5) and career recognition (Surya in navamsha lagna).

  • There may be much stress related to maintaining a rationalized "perfect" and youthful appearance as a perceived requirement for celebrity recognition or dramatic performance opportunities.

  • The navamsha distribution of graha is overall very intense and concentrated; a closer examination of the six graha on navamsha lagna axis would reveal more of the complexity of the native's marriage behaviors.

Rahu in bhava-7 re: marriage = unusual, exotic, extravagant, risk-taking spouse. Partner = poseur.

Generally, two+ marriages.

Exaggerated needs or expectations of the spouse. Unwilling partner may drive the native to other mates.

However, good results possible n in Kumbha or Vrishabha leading to religious celibacy or union with divine entities.

~~ Bhrigu Sutram Ch. 24 Shloka 9  

"The woman will quit her husband and marry another: if the 7th house from the Ascendant or the Moon-occupied signs be found with malefics as well as benefics."

~~ Bhrigu Sutram Ch. 2 4 Shloka 12

"If Sagittarius or Pisces or Jupiter's Navamsha be descending,

the husband will be brave, have control over his passions and desires and will possess other virtues."

~~ BPHS Ch. 80, shloka 22-25

If at woman's birth, the 7th bhava or the setting Navamsha be that of of Jupiter,

the husband of the woman concerned will be of great merit and will have passions under his control.

Reading the marriages via Navamsha Lords

  • In a marriage (whether sexual or spiritual) the relationship between the radix graha who is L-1 navamsha and the radix graha who is L-7 navamsha will provide a good part of the profile of the native's first marriage. This pair of graha show which internal relationship inside the native's own reality is being mirrored and triggered most intensively by the thoughts and actions of the spouse.

Marriage-1

  • For Aniston, this pair = Budha-Guru. In radix, Budha and Guru = 5/9 angle. The first marriage tends to involve a generous fatherlike or priestly figure (9) and be rather focused on children and dramatic creativity (5). The angle is exceptionally auspicious. However Guru + Ketu and Budha = moudhya with drishti of Rahu suggests perpetual ambivalence and mental discontent, resulting in an early and childless withdrawal from the union.

Marriage-2

  • Second marriage profile = the relationship between the radix graha who is L-2 navamsha and the radix graha who is L-8 navamsha

  • For Aniston, this pair = Shukra-Mangala. In radix, Shukra and Mangala = 5/9 angle. The second marriage tends to involve intensive sexuality (Kuja) a fatherlike or priestly figure (9) and be rather focused on children and dramatic creativity (5).

  • The angle is exceptionally auspicious, and the graha are attracted to each other.

  • Shukra = uchcha; Kuja = swakshetra and Chandra-Mangala (wealth) yoga. Prognosis for the second marriage is very favorable, despite some threat of emotional volatility from Chandra-Mangala.

Marriage-3

  • Third marriage profile = the relationship between the radix graha who is L-3 navamsha and the radix graha who is L-9 navamsha

  • Third marriage if any would = Shukra-Mangala and thus bear strong similarity to the second marriage, with excellent auspice. The native is able to achieve a great deal in life through her marriages.

Guru
  • The all-good Brihaspati is normally a beneficial influence on all aspects of life, including marriage (see Bhrigu Sutram And BPHS Above.)

  • However, Guru's auspice regarding marriage is much reduced in Aniston's charts. (Brihaspati remains beneficial for many other lifestyle qualities including bodily appearance, wealth through speculative investment, and wisdom.)

  • Guru has two enemies: Budha and Shukra. Kanya owned by Guru's enemy Budha, is not such a comfortable rashi for Guru.

  • Das/Behari says of Guru/Kanya: 'Choosy about friends, analytical mind, observant, promising, much traveling. Unorthodox about marriage partner. Gain through literary pursuits, speculation commercial investments. Ailments of bowels and lack of concentration."

  • Brihaspati also receives drishti of His enemy uchchamsha Shukra. Shukra's drishti upon lagna = amplified by Rahu = exceptionally attractive.

  • However in the matter of husband's disposition, this situation for Guru is not ideal. The husband is analytical and picky when he should be generous and wise (Guru in Budha's rashi) and the husband is ambivalent and withdrawn (Guru + Ketu) when wisdom and support would be needed in the marriage.

Transits Marriage is vulnerable to catastrophic upheaval due to impact of transits of Rahu or transits of Shani through bhava-1 or through a house from which these two malefics may cast drishti upon husband-karaka-and-L-7 Guru.
  • Aniston's first divorce from dramatist Brad Pitt occurred during Shani's transit through Karkata rashi (gochara Shani entered Karkata in Jan-2005). Shani's harshest 3rd drishti to Kanya.

  • Gochara Rahu-Ketu entered Meena-Kanya in March-2005, as this celebrity divorce and scandal became front-page news worldwide.

  • Rahu-Ketu transit to the 1-7 axis in radix and navamsha, triggering the highly complex and contradictory elements in Knya-Meena in both charts.

L-7 Radix, Lord of the seventh bhava = Guru

  • L-7 Radix tells more about the material behaviors of the spouse, social rank and position, external characteristics. (L-7 from Chandra is more of an emotional diagnostic.)

  • For Aniston+ L-7 radix = Guru. See evaluation of Guru, above. The husband is a strategic thinker and a planner-doer but probably not a deep romantic. Marriage for the spouse is all about planning out the details (Kanya) and receiving social validation for physical appearances (Guru/bhava-1).

Graha in occupation of bhava-7 = Shani, Shukra, and Rahu.

Shani + Rahu in yuvati bhava = betrayal in marriage

Rahu in yuvati bhava indicates a spouse from a different material culture. The marriage is based on passionate desires for sensual pleasure, material acquisitions, and a general urge toward adventurous taboo-breaking explorations.

Das/Behari says of Rahu/Meena/7: "Rahu will produce a disenchantment which averts you from anything sorrowful, unethical, or out of harmony with the true self. An unusual approach to life will be developed."
Shani in bhava-7 adds a dose of duty, sobriety, longevity, and austerity to the union. However when the naturally malefic Shani, functioning in Kanya lagna nativities as the L-6 for chronic animosity, inhabits the marriage house, there are negative consequences embedded in the karmic script.
Das/Behari says of Shani/Meena/7: "Saturn ... will bring marriage to an early end. You will marry several times, but each time there will be a setback. You will face several litigations, your family will disintegrate, and you will experience sorrow on account of children. You may die alone, abandoned by spouse, children, and relatives."
Uchchamsha L-2 + L-9 Meena-Shukra in bhava-7 = karako bhavo nashto in the strongest dose. The first marriage partner is charismatically magnetically (Rahu) attractive (Shukra) not only to the native but also to others. Marriage contract may be an expediently self-promoting or strategically instrumental (Rahu) arrangement.
Das/Behari says of Shukra/Meena: "Charitable, large-hearted, popular, wealthy, learned, devoted to saints; love for art, music and drama; fickle in love affairs, accepts a low-bred spouse; trouble and difficulty through your own miscalculations."
Shukra + Shani

A very attractive spouse, gifted in arts. Shukra + Shani deepens the artistic capabilities and potential for success in the arts, because Shani contributes work ethic and self-control to Shukra's natural artistic talents and god-given beauty.

  • Shani + Shukra is highly auspicious for success in arts industry (such as films, fashion modeling, any art, design or music business). Shukra + Rahu is problematic for intense passionate taboo-breaking desires.

The spouse's love nature - indicated by Shukra's condition- is on the one hand tightly controlled by work ethic and a sense of social dignity from Shani, and on the other hand that love nature is wildly amplified by uncontrollable desires for beauty, other-worldly or dream-like environments, and children.

The total result for publicly visible spousal behavior (7) is highly contradictory, containing:
  • some real and sincere mutual love and admiration (uchcha Shukra)

  • Along with fearful resistance to intimacy (Shani)

  • And the need for intense challenge and taboo-breaking partnerships (Rahu).

As always, the spouse's material behavior is strictly a *mirror* of the native's own closely-held beliefs, expectations, fears, and karmic luggage. The spouse is literally "acting out" the material beliefs of the native.

L-7 from Chandra = Shukra L-7 from Chandra reveals the emotional qualities of one's interaction with the spouse. Shukra rules seventh from Moon. See above for evaluation of the highly complex and contradictory situation of Lord of 7th-from-Chandra, the uchcha Shukra.
L-7 navamsha and occupants of 7th navamsha
  • Ketu-Shani-Budha-Chandra in the 7th navamsha

  • Rahu-Surya in navamsha lagna.

Importance of Marriage for the Self-definition

Clearly the native's marriage relationships are self-defining in every department of life.

  • The spousal character is indicated more often by the lord and graha in 7th navamsha, while the native's own behavior in relationships is typically defined by the graha and lord of the navamsha's first house.

  • 7th Navamsha contains Ketu, the radix L-5+L-6 Shani, the radix L-10+L-1 Budha, and the radix L-11 Chandra.

  • The first spouse (and at a subtle level the pattern for all spousal relationships) will have the qualities of detachment (Ketu), work ethic and delay of children (Shani), talkative, verbally oriented career and youthful physical appearance (Budha),

  • expansive social network of women and emotionally sensitive men (Chandra).

  • The native's own behavior in relationships is typified by ethical awareness and self-importance (Surya) with emphasis on exotic bodily appearance and self-promotion via risk-taking toward realization of personal ambition (Rahu).

Rahu-Ketu - overpowering extent of nodal influence

  • When Rahu-Ketu control both radix and navamsha charts, the spousal partners may each support each other instrumentally, but there may be no point of genuine spiritual or emotional contact.

  • The marriage is not necessarily deprived of affection, nor ruthlessly expedient, but rather the exigencies of life for the two partners will tend to keep them "seeing" each other at a distance whilst feeling rather permanently like two poles of an earth magnet.

  • Rahu-Ketu effects are due to underlying reality of Rahu-Ketu who can see each other and are defined by each other, but who, as a historic consequence of Rahu's taboo-breaking desires, can have no genuine contact.

Second husband is indicated by: Karaka Shani and graha that are co-tenants with Shani - Shani, Shukra, Rahu
  • Amatya-karaka -- neechcha L-11 Chandra

  • L-2 Radix and Graha in bhava-2 (if any) -- Shukra

  • Lord of second-from-Chandra and Graha in second-from-Chandra (if any) - Guru

  • L-2 navamsha and occupants of 2nd navamsha (if any) (however timing of marriages involves the same navamsha lagna for all subsequent marriages) -- Shukra

  • Second spouse will be magnetically attractive but nevertheless unusual or exotic (Rahu) and perhaps a bit rugged (Shani) in appearance. Rahu and Shani contribute a dark coloration to Shukra's fair tones.

  • The second husband is a hard worker who carries a social identity in arts, design, and music.

  • Career of second spouse = 10th-from-2nd = bhava-11, for Aniston this is Karkata rules by the wealth-generating neechcha Chandra-Mangala yoga.

  • Second husband career in marine industry, deep-sea mining, or secret/tantric operations such as surgeries esp. upon sexual body components, hormonal manipulations, may be a cosmetic or sexual/hormonal transformative surgeon.

  • High earner, very profitable, with productive energies tightly focused on marketplace income perhaps to the detriment of emotional amiability (neechcha Chandra with Kuja).

Likelihood of substance addictions

rooted in troubles with the mother, always accompanies the traumatized neechcha Chandra. The emotional relationship with the second husband is highly mentalized.

  • Characterized by detailed business development and visionary planning (Guru/Kanya) with less energy invested in interpersonal emotional validationand more dependence on public measures of achievement.

  • Guru is the L-1 navamsha which suggests that emotionally, the native feels a need to develop herself, as a business project, perhaps at the expense of the partnership.

Jyotisha timing of marriage and divorce: Jennifer Aniston Vimshottari Dasha - Barbara Pijan Lama Jyotisha

Marriage-1:

  • Surya/ Budha/Chandra period [using BT = 22:16:55 hrs]

  • Budha = L-7 navamsha

Gochara Rahu-Ketu

  • On the day of the marriage ceremony, gochara Rahu-Ketu pair was transiting at zero degrees of Makara/Karkata, a "dead state"

  • Rahu-Ketu crossed into Dhanushya/Mithuna at about 10pm on the wedding day

  • Although Gochara Ketu made no contact to the expected marriage points in radix nor navamsha, it is very interesting to note that contact was made to the nodal axis of Dashamsha -- the varga for career

  • Marriage appears to have been a more significant career desire (Rahu) than personal desire (Rahu)

Divorce-1:
  • Rahu gives sudden desire-driven changes.

  • Chandra/Rahu period where Rahu amplifies the results of both L-2 Shukra for the second spouse, and L-6 Shani, the agent of loss of agreement in marriage.

  • When L-6 is the divorce lord, there may significant animosity and often jealousy involved in the dissolution of marriage. Legal concerns drive the decision.

  • When L-2 is the divorce lord, there is often "someone else" in the picture.

  • L-6 in bhava-7 is highly inauspicious, because it bring animosity (often in the form of jealousy) into the marriage.

  • Combined with karako bhavo nashto producer uchchamsha kendra-7 Shukra, the forecast for a handsome, hard-working and wealthy first spouse to make a sudden (Rahu) change of partner is well defined.

  • gochara Rahu-Ketu = Mesha/Thula. Again the major desire-driven transformative change given by the Nodes only impacts the Dashamsha, or the public reputation/career.

Gochara Rahu-Ketu = Mesha/Thula.

  • Again the major desire-driven transformative change given by the Nodes only impacts the Dashamsha, or the public reputation/career.
