Rahu

in Vriddhi Sthana-11

Passionate about Profit

• energized by expedient earnings

• propelled by paycheck, prizes and prices

• prestige sought via distributive networks, associative systems, well-connected friends, gains in the marketplace

• marketplace oligarchy

Presuming absence of oppressive drishti, Bhava-11 is generally a favorable - if somewhat controversial - location for Irregular Rahu.

Lord Rahu represents exotics and outsiders, as well as rule-breaking behaviors. Bhava-11 = the regulated linkage which structures any network, such as social, electronic, scientific, conceptual, economic, ecologic, and transportation networks.

11 = earnings, gains, networks, economy, friendship, systems, profits, prizes, awards, achievements. Associative and distributive behaviors.

Rahu-11 is often a mark of a successful high-income figure who "learned the rules in order to break the rules". Rahu-11 may also indicate those who have been instrumental in promoting increased economic participation for marginalized classes (typically earning self-gain during the process).

Rahu-11 = earns many awards for social-material achievement typically also has many sources of income. The nature of the income sources is often not completely honorable, yet Rahu-11 enjoys the protection of swabhava. In bhava-11 He behaves irregularly  which is His unavoidable Rahu nature, yet in 11 He generally avoids social punishment.  Rahu-11 enjoys high earnings and in 11 He has permission to pursue upward social mobility via "whatever means necessary". Befriends the wealthy. Insinuates Himself into a network of the economically well-connected.

Often some issues with a disconnected or eccentric first child due to Ketu-5; however other supporting graha in 5 or a helpful drishti can alleviate the potential for a scattered or highly eccentric child.

Entitlement sought:

Rahu-11 = camouflage-match in order to appear as a legitimate, credible holder of status-rank in the class of beings which hold privilege in the environments of 11:

• prizes, awards, achievements

• earnings, pay, income, gains, profits,

• economy, ecology, network,

• regulated development

• opportunity to participate in large interconnected groups

• Rahu-11 integrates foreigners, outcast, outsiders, marginalized into the marketplace networks

• social networks, socialites, social-change activists, social-progressive causes and fund-raisers

• conceptual philosophers, scientists, interlinked scholars

• the well-connected, cosmopolitans,

• associative and distributive linkages

• members of the assembly,

• Rahu the anti-Shani is socially progressive but Rahu-11 prefers a laissez-faire economic policy with few or no rules

• weavers, knitters, crochet-hookers, fishnet-makers, switchboard-operators

• electrical grid, electrical workers in most skill areas,

• lattice designs, all varieties of interconnected linkage which follow a regular (Shani) pattern

• followers of the ley lines

If Shani or L-11 = strong, Rahu may take whatever risks are necessary to achieve membership in this class of beings.

• Rahu give best results in bhava-3, bhava-6, and bhava-11. Rahu's results in bhava-10 may be favorable depending on His lord.

kamakaraka Rahu =

• Ambition to be recognized and receive the entitlements accorded to important figures in communities. Leaps over the stepwise rules of socially regulated economic participation, application of scientific principles to social organization, rule-driven conceptual systems, and interlinked distribution networks

• desire to push forward a principled agenda of social progress connecting additional social classes via marketplace opportunity and linking associated groups into participation in larger social systems

• craves high earnings and awards for social-material achievement

chidakaraka Ketu =

• Apathy and Ambivalence toward personal entitlements, individual charisma, bright lights, romance, royalty and celebrity, gambling and games, amusements and entertainments, delights of children, theatrical or literary creative performance, political power, speculative thought, and individual intelligence.

• often an economically privileged individual due to Rahu-11 who is nevertheless a "plain person" who eschews glamour and the trappings of celebrity. First child may be detached or peculiar.

Rahu's Passageway

Bhava-11 provides the snake-hole aperture through which the ambitious Naga King slithers, slides, and springs upward.

• Fascinated by highly gainful persons who connect to elite networks
• Rahu-11 makes it one's business to link socially with a great many people.
• Seeks exotic methods of economic participation, significantly via unusual and often proscribed personal relationships.
• May risk irregular behavior in order to obtain the privileges gained through the high-earning persons.
• If Shani + Rahu, will attempt to legalize the risky method (for example, by marriage or other legitimization of the irregular relationship.)

Rahu in Bhava 11 materials gains = gains of marketplace profit.

Often a dramatic rise from the station of birth via extraordinary or exotic associations and earnings.

• Unusual circumstances regarding the elder sibling or the father's younger brother.

• uchchamsha Rahu-11-Vrischika possible only for Karkata lagna = maximum marketplace gains

= 11th from any lagna

= 11th from Chandra

= Economies of Nature, Participatory interlinked regulated Lateral Systems

Elevation through Economic Participation

Quest for higher entitlements via networking, systems distribution, linkage, social progressive movements that promote extension of economic opportunities.

Materially successful Rahu in bhava- 11; often a "joiner" of perceived elite voluntary associations.

However the motive is personally expedient.

While some community good may be accomplished as a by-product, any seemingly altruistic goals are in reality the means toward a self-elevating end.

Splendid placement for a socialite consort who earns by association

• partner of French President Carla Bruni Sarkozy

• partner of 2012 pres-cand Newt Gingrich, Calista Gingrich + Guru

• partner of UK-Prince Camilla Parker-Bowles

• UK-Prince Consort Philip Mountbatten

Also, no matter what level of achievement He may obtain, the compulsively achieving chalakaraka can never be satisfied with any attainment.

Extremely strong social-economic-networking ambitions

• Self-elevation through exotic acquaintances and risky friendships.

Full scope of effects depends upon which graha occupy bhava 3, 5, and 7.

Rahu in bhava-11 = craves a privileged income and the social network that goes with it - striving for friends in high places.

A great desire to be recognized as a socialite, although one has not yet earned sufficient understanding of socio-economic systems.

Via Rahu's characteristic over-promotion, Rahu-11 often gets inappropriately involved with political fundraising or lawful social progress movements that are "over their head".

• elevation to a higher station in life via networking, social activism, marketplace earnings

By means of communities of friendship and missionary outreach, one wishes to obtain the privileges of higher connectivity and profits.

• Great Leap Forward via large, complex, rule-driven Systems: Economies of commodities

As the natural co-lord (with Shani) and a karaka for sudden (if often illicit) development of wealth via exotic connections, Rahu gives "express elevator" financial results in 11.

• Gangsterism, profit-gorging, misguided or illicit or taboo but large and quick earnings, ill-gotten gains, trouble for elder sibling

• Sudden "express elevator" rise to high levels of material goal achievement and marketplace earnings

It is generally somewhat difficult to maintain the higher earnings after the period of Rahu has ended.

• Exception: uchcha Rahu which signals a lifetime of high income after Rahu's "jump-start" beginning.

Rahu-11 grants ambition to socialize widely, keeping an eye on the profits.

Often a splendid networker, who knows no barriers socially and functions as an agent of extension of opportunity to participate. Excellent placement for marketing.

One experiences strong ambitions (Rahu) to network (11) among a variety of constituencies, connecting to people of many different cultural persuasions, simultaneously building consensus in large social change movements while developing one's own personal profit.

It is a populist placement which evokes the 'free market' spirit and stimulates the desires of the great masses, who are fascinated (Rahu, naga-bewitchment) with Rahu-11 's splendid ascendance into the realm of high material profits.

Rahu in vriddhi-sthana = self-elevation via social global networking, earning a high price for one's labor in the marketplace, unusual elder sibling, many foreign friends, attending very large assembly events, political activism and association with high earners.

• Rahu tend to give favorable social + financial results in 11, Rahu's natural bhava.

• Rahu-11 can network effectively among people of many different cultural persuasions, building large social change movements and personal profit as well.

"Desire for Networks of Exotic Association"

• Desire to challenge conventional boundaries of gainful Association and profitable Friendship

• marketplace gains via proscribed, taboo, illegal or barely legal actions

  •  

  Hunger to Possess networks of affiliation and connection

One can "leapfrog" to higher economic status in realms of marketplace empire and social economy of goods and ideas, often by forming exotic friendships within the commodity distribution network.

• partner of French President Carla Bruni Sarkozy, UK-Queen Victoria I , USA Pres-43-George W. Bush

Uses surreptitious or unconventional methods to obtain credibility in large gatherings such as country fayre and Kumbha mela, political fundraising parties and popular support rallies, giant electronic networks

"spring forward" to a higher social station through social networking

the father's relatives, particularly his immediate younger sibling.

• the son of a well-known and well-connected actor, dramatist, cinematic producer Michael Douglas certainly possessed his own talent both theatrical and commercial. Importantly he was able to capitalize on his father's family connections to obtain funding (11) for his cinematic projects.

Rahu is the natural co-lord of bhava-11 (along with Shani) therefore in 11 Rahu may produce remarkable earnings from exotic sources

• Rahu the Rakshasa feeds upon passionate and manipulative circumstances within the global marketplace, the interconnected social communities, and in conceptual networks of distributed thought such as science and philosophy.

• Rahu the Intruder disrupts the customary habits of large-group assemblies, upsets one's relationship with the elder sibling or father's younger brother, and makes one privy to exotic and potentially dangerous social-change movements.

• Rahu-11 may be a passionate exponent of some social philosophy; however the specific principles of that philosophy may range

Rahu Mahadasha = Rahu bhukti = Rahu pratyantardasha

During periods of Rahu, a surreptitious intruder or poseur enters the realm of the marketplace gains and large, complex social and conceptual systems. Rahu-11 on one's own part will strive to matchthe psychic energy of exotic (not normal for Rahu-11 ) high earners, goal achievers, and social-community developers.

The goal of the interloper is to break limits and challenge assumptions about the normal stepwise path of marketplace gainfulness and making social network connections.

Rahu the Chandala makes friendships with exotic persons. These taboo-challenging members of Rahu-11 's social network then provide the "leapfrog" effect toward great wealth in the marketplace.

• George W. Bush-43 = uchcha Rahu-Vrishabha-11 = extraordinary sources of high income = close friends with the Saudi royal family.

One's passion for connecting to this enticing exotic agent is disruptive but exciting and each iteration breaks some limit upon how many and which type of networks one is allowed to join.

Ill-gotten Gain

Illicit or irregular economic agents in the marketplace. Marketplace lawfulness is interrupted by the presence of gangsters, foreign money cartels, profits from selling illegal orstolen goods.

One may appropriate (assume, take on)social connections and claim to have friendships which one has not earned in the conventional way.

Profit from investment in socially disruptive, illicit, or taboo commodities.

• Stephen King, fictional writings about taboo human behaviors have become immensely profitable in the media marketplace.

• Anthropologist and best-selling author Margaret Mead single-handedly popularized the Polynesian word "taboo" and made it a permanent lemma in modern English dictionaries

• George W. Bush was heavily invested in the oil markets controlled by the middle East's leading families, even while supposedly conducting wars against the scions of those same families (Osama bin Laden).

The Chosen = "Linked In"

One wishes to be recognized as specially "chosen" for a privileged role *above the station of birth*. Rahu hungers for permission to participate in elite social networks: scientific, conceptual, political and financial; and He will do "whatever it takes" to obtain that enticing, but as-yet-unearned, higher level of privilege.

Rahu in 11, His natural bhava = crafty instinct for marketplace-related social functions such as community fundraising. By including others into an extended network of financial operatives, Rahu instrumentally utilizes the hunger for elite status recognition of others who also desire to join the network .

• Carla Bruni Sarkozy,

• George W. Bush-43

As the great disturber of habitual order, Rahu destroys customary moral accountability in the marketplace. Under pretense of "laissez faire" economics or some other philosophy of freedom from legislation (Rahu = anti-Shani), any sort of exotic or illicit practice is accepted in marketplace networks. [UK- Queen Victoria I, USA Pres-43 George W. Bush].

Behavioral rule-breaking such as intrusiveness in the elder sibling Or father's younger brother; in the marketplace and its rules; and in process of setting and achieving goals.

Rahu disrupts the customary methods of large-group networking and voluntary, profitable associations.

"Outsider" in the conventional marketplace. Rahu is the co-ruler of Kumbha the natural regulator of bhava-11. Normally, Rahu in bhava-11 is a karaka for wealth. Associated with pyramid schemes and unusual fundraising methods.

• Rahu-11 feels a great hunger for extending the reach of one's circle of profitable association, which causes Rahu-11 to form networks of friendship amongst highly desire-driven persons.

• Rahu-11 is most interested in the company of those whose hunger for profit is very strong.

A chameleon of society, who enjoys manipulating the needs and desires of others for personal profit.

Rahu in bhava-11 is a karaka for marketplace success, and a high (though fluctuating) income. Rahu's lord must be auspicious to provide long-term sustained profits.

Oily, smoky things in the marketplace and distributive networks. Major profits from combustible smoky fuels such as petroleum, coal, other oily fuels. [USA Pres-43 George W. Bush]

Also on the psychological level, exotic or forbidden materials can be the source of large profits.

Rahu in 11 is typically desirous of large profits and and normally He succeeds in possessing this desired goal by means of certain smokescreens and illicit dealings. Of course as always there are consequences but nevertheless Rahu in 11 will make Rahu-11 rich. Especially powerful for material gain in a rashi of Shukra.

Rahu Risk-taking as a response to conflict

Rahu-11 = 6th-from = bhava-6, might feel compelled toward illicit behaviors by a conflict with servants; debt, or the mother's relatives

Rahu in 11 =

job creator, economic risk-taker,

social-network diversifier

native may serve the disparaged, distrusted, dark, quick-shifting, smoky, oily, socially marginalized classes as a bridge into income-earnings of 11

Rahu is auspiciously placed in bhava-3, bhava- 6, and bhava-11

He will make you very rich materially during His mahadasha and His bhukti periods can also become exceptionally gainful

The downside of chalakaraka Rahu is that He operates by illicit or taboo-breaking methods. Therefore during Rahu mahadasha for the nativity with Rahu-11 and the lord of 11 is healthy, one may wear the Gomedha-ratna with caution.

If you notice too many undesirable characters operating in your life, particularly those offering quick profits via shady deals and espousing rather slippery interpretations of basic moral principles, considering removing the Gomedha while you re-assess your goals and objectives.

The mahadasha of Rahu-11 and the bhukti sub-periods of Rahu during mahadasha of graha which have a good angular relationship to Rahu can bring extraordinary gains of social and material achievement. If conscientiously managed by a mature and morally circumspect person , these gains may be meritorious because they can be parlayed into employment opportunities for outcast, foreigners, and other lower or "smoky" persons (those trapped behind veils of desire).

Rahu can generate profits via internationalization of commerce. He can also increase your capacity to create income-earning jobs in the global marketplace for those who might have been previously unemployable due to their socially marginalized (Rahu) outsider status.

Rahu-11 can Do Good if He is properly managed.

high income via exotic methods

• Carla Bruni Sarkozy

uchchamsha:

• horror-story writer Stephen King

• USA Pres-43 George W. Bush

• partner of UK-Prince Camilla Parker-Bowles

• partner of India-PM, Mrs. Sonia Maino Gandhi

kamakaraka Rahu in bhava-11 = desire-driven search for entitlement = high income via exotic methods, typically within an international network. The amount and source of marketplace gainfulness depends on the condition of Rahu's lord.

Best results for Simha lagna. Spectacular income for Simha lagna if Rahu = yuti Budha in Mithuna. Amplifies the network of friendships and associations to include numerous cultural outsiders. Rahu-11 will challenge cultural boundaries and break taboos in order to achieve their goals, both financial and social.

The elder sibling may be a cultural outsider, an agent of radical social change, or a foreigner in some respect.

Much depends on the characteristics of Rahu's lord, however Rahu in any rashi in bhava-11 is a strong indicator of unusually high levels of income through unusual channels within the marketplace.

If Rahu yuti a benefic L-8, capital gains acquired through inheritance = amplified via investment in the marketplace.

6th-from-Rahu + 12th from Ketu = bhava-4

Parental, educational, sheltering difficulties

"Damned if you do; damned if you don't."

When Rahu = 11, naturally then Ketu = 5.

bhava-4 home-and-security enters a bad-angle position = a feeling of being trapped in the wrong ethnicity.

• the notoriously difficult 6th-from-Rahu = an attempt at quick self-elevation during which one becomes the victim of fraud or tricky deceit during the cultural indoctrination process

• the notoriously difficult 12th-from-Ketu = an attempt to withdraw from involvements with the parents and ethnic customs (4) during which one is prevented from "clean cut" separation because 12th-from-Ketu frustratingly 'dissolves the detachment' and re-invigorates the ethnic roots.

• This sort of patriotism and need to defend the homeland which develops on its basis is adversarial to Rahu-11 's true spiritual self and unsatisfying to the point of impoverishment or physical illness, yet psychically (Ketu) it is quite hard to get unrooted from the homeland.
