Surya Ravi in Tanu Bhava-1 - BP Lama Jyotisha Vedic Astrology

Surya in swabhava of Ravi's good friend Mangala radiates moving, hot-blooded (Kuja) personal charisma(Surya) into dramatic iconic roles which produce:

socially significant attributes
Swift and Brilliant movement. dynamic forward movement; direct action.
vitality, certainty, authority, personal integrity and confidence
entitlement, dramatic glamour, splendor, royalty, celebrity, aristocracy, sparkle, golden ornaments
Hunter, dancer, athlete, warrior,
Innovation, uniqueness, creativity, ingenuity
center-stage performer, iconic representative of a social movement, a commercial product, an ideology, or an art form.

Exhilarated by politics and political theatre.

Tendency toward vividly extreme solipsism.

Due to the fierce brightness of this ego, the native may suffer from an inability to share another's vision or see other's point of view

political activist Barbra Streisand
political commentator Rush Limbaugh

However if Surya accepts any drishti from Shani that shadow from Shani is likely to reduce the solipsism and expose the reality (Shani) of the viewpoints of others.

"Miraculous Medal" Sainte Catherine Laboure = Surya exceptionally strong in the self-focused Mesha lagna, however an equally strong drishti from Shani-Thula represents the constraint upon her self-truth played out by the doctrine and doctors of the Church. She spoke of her visions (Ravi) only through her spiritual advisor.
USA Pres-31, Herbert Hoover also Surya super-strong in Karkata lagna (homeland) yet constrained by an almost equally strong Shani-Makara-7 = legal limits, governance, bureaucracy

Radiates physical body activity, appearance attributes and the socially significant meaning of the physical attributes

Center-stage actor, materializer, pursuer of attention (or notoriety).

Exceptionally innovative, creative, confident, and intensely self-focused.

an iconic, charismatic personality who represents a nation, a movement, a generation, or a brilliant idea USA Sec. of State Hillary Clinton
self-appropriated intellectual authority

self-designated entitlements of royalty and political celebrity

India-PM 1966-1977; 1980-84 Indira Gandhi
India-PM 1984-89 Rajiv Gandhi
political commentator Rush Limbaugh + Budha
a confident genius in competitive battle Napoleon Bonaparte
splendid natural stage performers who sparkle in the limelight - Martha Graham, Judy Garland, (less limelight-loving if Ravi accepts drishti from cold, dark Shani)

Even the most disabled neechcha Surya will gain dignity in Tanu bhava

Often the Surya-Thula-1 attains glory via neechcha bhanga .

(Check the rules.)

Surya in 1 focuses a spotlight of attention upon the physical body attributes and the social significance of those attributes. Grants charisma and brightness.

In the nativity of a public figure, Surya in 1 contributes to the Cult of Personality. Even a non-celebrity will presume that others are naturally inclined to orbit around the Surya-rising native.

Surya in Mesha lagna = a hero, a savior, a rescuer, a redeemer.

Identifies with environments distinguished by weapons, conquest, metals, fire and flame, combustion engines.
Will not accept military discipline unless Shani is strong. Must be an independent hero such as an emergency responder.
This one seeks the glory of championship.

One finds a central position in the drama of body-based behaviors, matters of shells and coverings, appearances and significations of physical attributes.

For example,

Queen Victoria I was an iconic figure at the center of the Victorian cult of extreme dress coverage, the cult idea being to cover up the body with layers of clothing to prevent unseemly sensual attraction (her Sun in Vrishabha, Shukra = sensual attractions). At the extreme peak of this cult, even legs of furniture such as table legs and piano legs were subject to polite cover-up in order to prevent Shukra-type activity!
Emilio Pucci the aristocratic fashion designer was a 20th-century leader in the appearance and coverings business.
dramatist, cinematic producer Michael Douglas 40-year career in iconic male roles

One is persistently self-assertive - particularly if Ravi yuti Kuja. As a result, the native may have trouble cooperating with others.

political commentator Rush Limbaugh + Budha is known for his intolerance toward alternative viewpoints

Unless Shani constrains the brilliant, self-defining Surya-1, the native prefers to be accountable to no human - only to the Divine.

Swami Vivekananda
clairsentient astral reader Edgar Cayce

Within the limits of one's own field of perception, one has no equal.

Marriage and other equal-to-equal partnerships suffer the consequences of one's own entitlement to self-interested centrality in all things.

Best results when this independent minded person is not constrained by Shani-type structure within a large organization
likes political campaigns but unless Shani in 10 is not suited for governance roles (e.g. a notable exception = Hillary Clinton = Shani-10 parivartamsha Chandra. Still she is happiest as an independent traveling diplomat)
Happiest when self-employed.

Excellent for the commercial sole proprietor or visionary entrepreneur, the creative director or inventor, the politician or the principal of a self-owned enterprise.

a gifted but willful dramatic actor; a tyrannical perhaps but brilliant theatrical director;

splendid placement for a relentlessly confident, divinely approved emperor or monarch.

Does well when wielding authority in independent roles that are specifically not locked into a Shani-style common-law hierarchy. In matters of rank, one prefers to be at the center-top, or at the creative, law-challenging margins.

A celebrated, royal, authoritative, charismatic personality, with radiant ability to channel divine intelligence.

However, the channel used to reveal the intelligence is the ego. One must possess considerable awareness of the impact one has upon others, in order to become a force for the good.

Tendency to disregard and dominate with no malice aforethought. One may err when blinded by one's own light.

Despite providing a positive, entertaining influence in one's home and work environment, the native may be disliked due to a characteristic inability to recognize the importance of others.

The spouse may grow resentful and the co-workers may complain of the native assuming personal credit for achievements earned by the team.

One who is not self-employed may find that even with sharp skills, one must often change jobs. the native , whose self-concept is of a beneficent and caring king or queen, is often bewildered by complaints against one.

One seeks praise and recognition for the regal qualities of one's appearance. Generally becomes a famous icon of some sort. May be a bit vain.

Bright, independent, must have things done in one's own way. If one matures morally and emotionally, the personality becomes fully integrated with highest creativity, compassionate action. Otherwise, may become extremely selfish or sulk when the self-directive is not successful. Not a team player.

A favored son or daughter.
Often the Apple of the Parental Eye (esp a favorite of the father).

'Burns up' the physical body with pitta dosha. Digestion is overheated. The complexion gains a bright, golden cast.

Requires broad recognition, and usually receives it abundantly. Surya casts drishti upon bhava-7 giving the spouse a similar selfishness.

The marital partners will prosper when they remain mutually independent in their actions, each seeking their own personal satisfaction with a self-directed agenda.

Hillary Clinton

Good for a professional marriage with each spouse having his-her own means of income and professional skills. One will not easily share resources with the spouse; little mercy for weakness of the spouse. This native is self-identified and not good at sharing. Me-firSaint

Seeks honor and regard in glamorous central positions, but is challenged to share glory and power.

Surya in either Simha lagna or Mesha lagna may display a breathtaking sense of personal entitlement.
Ravi-Mesha can be truly heroic, often arescuer or noble agent willing to offer one's very life for glory. Excellent in military, as a fame warrior .
The behavioral style = solipsistic, and the leadership methods tend toward imperious.
one's social attitude may be perceived as adolescently fame-seeking rather than socially responsible.
Bewildering to the native as it may be, the great hero who sees oneself as risking one's own life for the glory of the nation may be perceived as being more accurately motivated by the glory of self.
Characteristically seeks the 'lion's share' of attention for oneself. May be shocked to discover that this self-referential inability to share the glory produces not continuous praise but rather increasing resentment.

A very strong Surya in the radical lagna indicates a magnificent stage performer or military general who may suffer a complete inability to manage power-sharing, equal to equal relationships. exhibits not "All for one and One for all" (Dumas, Three Musketeers) but rather "All for One and... All for One".

Napoleon Bonaparte

In Mesha in particular Surya-1's worldview can be strikingly self-referential - even while the native is busy with self-perceived good works.

Rabindranath Tagore

Surya in Simha lagna due to Shani lord of kalatra bhava must marry an elder, experienced, practical and socially networked spouse (Bonaparte's Josephine).Adjust this prognosis according to the 7th navamsha.

If Ravi occupies a kendra from lagna,

one may be admired for creative leadership in one's profession. the native with Surya in lagna has radiant confidence, and this one can lead charismatically when others have lost hope Bonaparte
Prosperity in fields where independent decision-making and self-confidence are valued.

Surya-1 usually puts some unique twist on career, and may ignore the social ranking divisions race, class, or gender convention(Shani) via personal charisma that is strong enough to claim a position usually reserved for another group.

If Kuja is favorable, pioneering success in politics and military professions.

Surya-1 may be incapable of imagining that one's own decisions could ever be anything less than completely right. If not appreciated in love or work, one will look elsewhere for the attention one craves.

Marriage

Due to the intensely bright self-focus which can make it a challenge to "see" another person independent of the Light one shines upon them, Surya-1 is tricky for marriage.

Bhava-1 = self, personality, uniqueness, and it can become a zone of narcissistic anxiety if the native is too much self-identified with the social-material personality.

Surya-1 casts a bright aura into one's environment but ego-satisfaction is generally obtained via a Surya-style one-to-many relationship with the audience, rather than a Shukra-style one-to-one relationship with a significant Other.

As the four-times-married Rush Limbaugh Surya-1 was quoted by the Palm Beach Post, marriage is difficult for him because "I'm too much in love with myself."

If Surya receives Drishti from Shani there is less solipsism and more social responsibility.

However in general the native will derive one's primary identify from the "applause" generates by acts of political or artistic creativity; the spouse is an appendage.

Surya-1 generally cannot tolerate anyone or anything which threatens to block their light. Should the spouse be perceived as limiting one's ability to send light into the audience, marriage may be short-lived.

Rush Limbaugh the radio commentator is a widely known public figure who makes numerous public appearances annually in political and theatrical settings. For spousal companions, he selects mirror-providers who are generally athletic, young, attractive, and personable - customer service clerks, sales agents, or greeters. These ladies make a positive "first impression". However, subsequent impressions may not be able to compete with the Bright Light of a Dhanushya Surya in lagna. Mr. Limbaugh has been married four times as of 2011.

Handsome, striking, golden appearance - esp. if Surya occupies a friendly rashi.

Bright aura if Surya is favorable; exaggerated ego if not.

Surya-1 strives to maintain a radiant appearance. One frequently cultivates the health and beauty practices, including cosmetic surgeries, diets, hatha yoga etc. which help achieve positive social recognition of the individual physical body.

Beneficial for career in modeling, athletics, entertainment, or as an iconic representative of a social organization or a nation-state.

Believes oneself to be a royal personage. High entitlements to claim the public attention.

Tendency toward narcissistic anxiety and pronounced selfishness; unable to acknowledge the supporting social structures and resources given by others which have created their individual success.

Mythology of the "self-made man". One's own beliefs may be so powerful that one is unable to experience the truth of others.

If Shukra also in lagna with Surya, native is influential, successful in diplomatic tasks, and brightly attractive. Exception = Simha lagna and Mesha lagna, where Surya burns up the beauty of Shukra leaving only sensual desire. move

Das / Behari comments re: Surya-1

"Invincible in your approach to life.

Mathematical genius and a superb philosopher;
famous but not often happy.
A habitual wanderer
and will seldom be able to live in peace with your spouse.

There will be very few people who can establish harmonious partnerships with you."
