Surya in Meena

• Queen of England Elizabeth I (b. 1533)

• poet of forbidden pleasures, Charles Baudelaire

Seeks a central position within masked, occluded environments.

Radiates charismatic light from the brilliant center of mystery.

Admired hub personality within occult practice societies, secret knowledge holders, those who control confidential information, disaster-managers, financiers protecting hidden treasure, participants in covert relationships, managers of tax-shelters, medecins who perform surgeries, military strategists who conduct invasions, monitors of eruptions, deployers of poison and extreme, unexpected force.

Surya in swabhava of Ravi's good friend Mangala radiates moving, hot-blooded (Kuja) personal charisma(Surya) into mystical, transformative activities such as:

• healing, surgery, disaster response, discovery and revelation, sudden disclosure, catastrophic change, trauma icon, tantric symbol or representative of occult knowledge, secret lifestyle

• mysterious conditions, cycles of self-destruction and rebirth, rejuvenation, secret knowledge, confidential information

creative, center-stage

• transformer, hider, detector, diver, pursuer of mysteries, investigator of the covered or forbidden

Surya's brilliant light permits one to "see" into the unknown, the secret, the mysterious, the esoteric, the masked, cloudy, reclusive, occluded and occult

One exists in the dramatic center of :

mystery, secrecy, sudden changes, covert operations, occult knowledge, confidential information, hidden money, inheritances and legacies, conditions of death, emergencies and disasters, eruptions and emergence, secret pleasures, healing transformations.

The partner's family may contain dramatists, politicians, or celebrities. The partner's family may express entitlement to a great deal of attention.

• UK-Princess Diana Spencer 's first partner's family was the royal house of UK

• golf champion Tiger Woods 's first partner's mother was a Swedish politician

Whether more specialized toward money, knowledge, or pleasure depends upon rashi, drishti, and co-tenants of bhava-8.

• However the luminaries (Surya, Chandra) in 8 tend toward a shortened lifespan.

• Bhagwan Shree OSHO Rajneesh d. age 59

• novelist, publisher Virginia Woolf d. age 59

Surya is surprisingly happy in Kuja's swabhava (presuming the rashi is supportive) - yet naturally this placement is not good for the father, .

Matters of Surya's temporal house may be destroyed

One finds a central position in the drama of shock-based behaviors, matters of catastrophic change, emergence of the hidden, disaster, destruction-and-rebirth, surgery, healing transformation, Revelation, Rebirth, and trauma.

Splendid position for those handling secret information which may have catastrophic consequences either for individuals or for the world

• Queen Elizabeth I (b. 1533)

• secret identities of celebrities Mrs. Betty Ford

• secret political (Surya) monies not accountable to public view = televangelist "Moral Majority" Rev. Jerry Falwell

• USA Congressman Newt Gingrich - convicted of misappropriation of other people's money (8)

• partner of 2012 pres-cand Newt Gingrich, Calista Gingrich knew about the illegal monies; said nothing (Shani-8 obligation to keep secrets)

• secret life of the father = golf champion Tiger Woods

• partner of USA Pres-44, Mrs. Michelle Robinson Obama -- however Surya is much oppressed by lawful, orderly-moving uchcha-Kuja + Shani so it is unlikely that any confidential information would have unlawful consequences.

Although the personal life is not easy, one may emerge into the world theatre as an agent of forced social transformation.

Father

• Surya in dushthamsha (6, 8, 12) = often unfortunate for the father.

• In 8, insurance or inheritance or hidden operations; perhaps a revolutionary or agent of catastrophe

• the bootlegger father of political preacher Rev. Jerry Falwell murdered his own younger brother during a drunken fight

• Elizabeth I 's father was a destructive agent of catastrophe for some and a healing revolutionary for others

To have Ravi's portfolio radically, even catastrophically, destroyed during the lifetime is indeed a good thing for Meena lagna and Kanya lagna, where Surya is L-6 and L-12 .

For Meena lagna and Kanya lagna = Viparita Raja Yoga. Surya in randhra-sthana = a boost up - esp. for Kanya lagna where major obstacles from Ari-sthana, such as enemies, debts, and disease, are neatly destroyed.

For other lagna except Meena and Kanya, results will be mixed: prevents the karaka traits of Surya from manifesting; e.g., destroys fame, dampens self-confidence, reduces leadership power and harms the self-image. Does not disturb wealth, favors legacy and inheritance. Helps professions in healing arts and secret traditions, helps attorneys managing the affairs of the dead, and all involved in occult or tantra.

One seeks praise and recognition as a Revealer.

Surya-8 = secret knowledge of mysteries and shamanic tools of death-and-rebirth cycles of destruction.

• Mary Baker Eddy (Surya-Karkata) = cultivated a home-based (Karkata) style of medical healing without physicians or medicines, by tapping into the "secret" vitalizing psychic forces (8)

One may become most famous (Surya) for matters connected to the Conditions of death .

• publisher and novelist Virginia Woolf is naturally well-known for her brilliant literary works, but her greater lore in the public mind arises from the extreme depression-exhilaration cycle of her bi-polar personality disorder, which led to both genius level-creative writing (L-3 Surya) and a tragically infamous death via suicide.

The flesh body is killed by agency of the rashi governing bhava-8, drishti to bhava-8, and by karaka Surya:

• by the father

• by the king or the royal court

• by males (such as brother, husband, boss)

• by the heart, by the spine

• by arrogance or self-centralizing authority

• sudden burst of extremely bright light

• by over-exposure physically to light or heat - or socially, via over-attention, over-celebrity

• by brightness, dryness, warmth

• by afflictions of overheating to the eyes, heart, or spine

Examples

• UK-Princess Diana Spencer = over-exposure, conditions of death = celebrity; bright "flash" of pursuing media photographers (Surya Mithuna = publications)

• Queen Elizabeth I (b. 1533) = long-term lead poisoning (8 = poisons) from her lead-based "ceruse" theatrical (Surya) cosmetic face-paint used to lighten and brighten (Surya) the pock-marks on her small-pox scarred face

• publisher and novelist Virginia Woolf had wasted (Shani) her aging body through anorexia (Shani) related to her worsening depressions (L-3 mentality Surya in dark rashi Makara = loss of self-confidence) to the point that her body was severely weakened.. In the depths (Shani) of a terrible (8) mental depression, she put heavy stones (Makara) in her pockets and walked into a deep (Shani) river, causing her lungs (Budha in 8) to fill with water so that she drowned.

Surya-8 = professionally concerned with hidden or confidential matters; surgeries and emergencies; mysterious, occult, or clandestine environments in which secret assets are collected (including valuable secret knowledge).

Surya-8 generally knows a great deal more than might appear at the surface.

Ego-identity in public life = reduced, or becomes problematic, as Surya the Bright Light of Truth must shine out from the house of hidden forces and catastrophic change.

As the native hides oneself from public view. Depending on Surya's house lordship, the native could be powerful socially, but one's involvement in powerful activities is largely veiled.

the native does not wish to be ego-identified with the confidential or occult materials that one is indeed handling. Ethical conflict caused by secrecy or ego-association with mysterious knowledge may result in moral crisis. Matters of Surya's house are obscured.

• Causes and conditions of death are related to the L-8 and to Surya, including Heat and Heart.

Atma-karaka in bhava-8 = similar to Surya in bhava-08

• Longevity: slightly reduced overall.

• Circumstances of Death: sudden, in a hot placeor on a hot day(more hot if a hot rashi), likely environment is mountainous; cause also may be internal heat e.g., fever. Depends significantly on the L-8.

• In-Laws: high confidence in dealing with the spouse's family. Normally the native has the strongest personality in the extended family group. Not intimidated by relatives.

• Inheritance and Insurance settlements: depends on the L-8, but Surya tends to burn up whatever is happening in the house Ravi occupies. Inheritance if any is much smaller than the native 's own earnings.

• Taxes: not a burden. Often avoided completely.

• Access to Secret Knowledge: Advanced capabilities, broad access to hidden information. May need to make executive decisions on potentially catastrophic events (Truman, Blair).

• Healing Skills: capability for helping others to make important and difficult decisions, ability to reason effectively, even with limited information

• Catastrophic Changes: subject to massive changes in the social identity, depending on L-8

• Joint Assets of Marriage: the native and the spouse may contribute successfully to material wealth hoard in marriage. Presuming Surya is strong, Native holds a positive belief predisposition to build financial security for the marriage.

• Divorce Settlement: "burned up" Extramarital options are available and often utilized for ego-enhancement purposes, but divorce is uncommon with Surya/8.

  Father has some covert dealings which may harm his career. If Surya is weak, Father may be secretive, unethical, moody, or even abusive.

Ravi is at home here in Kuja's Bhava, despite the less favorable prognosis for the father/guru.

Surya in bhava-08 indicates a high calling in one of the healing arts, surgery, midwifery, disaster response, investigating detective, or secret finance.

However the native 's activities may never reach public visibility. Even the portion of their dealings which is known to the public may be small like the tip of an iceberg. One may be working in the service of shrouded interests, able to reveal only a little of what one knows.

One is called to bring secret information, tantric arts buried in the dust of ages, and above all healing energies to the surface of human conscious through philosophical reasoning.

Excellent therapists are found with this position, as well as investigators into negative levels of secrecy such as criminal corruption.

Surya-8 may bear sole responsibility for making high-impact judgments and decisions using their own intelligence. Their choice may affect the life of individuals, or the future of nations.

Das / Behari says of Surya in 8:

"In general, the Sun in this house makes you lean and thin, mentally obtuse, disliked and abandoned by relations.

But if the zodiacal sign is supportive, the solar influence here may lead to much interest in spirituality or the process of initiation.

The Sun of the 8th house is mostly malefic, as it is posited in a bad house.

• This house denotes wills, legacies, chronic diseases, loss of wealth, extravagance, suits and quarrels, death, co-workers and occult matters.

  • Planets occupying this house incline to an interest in occult science; if without a planet, life runs on conventional lines till the ruler receives strong aspects.

• You are a crafty impostor and lewd. Life is hard and difficult. Travels widely and associates with low class persons, eats unscrupulously, squanders away wealth and by thefts. Secret vice brings infectious diseases and poor health. Neither can you make others' life happy; nor, your own; sudden death.

• You are handsome, but indolent, prodigal, spend-thrift, suffer from piles; adulterous; travels wide and is quarrelsome. Absence of offspring [BPL: not true if Guru drishti Moon] weak sight, wealthy but violent, sick and hard working. You are neither rich nor happy. Early death; and more so, at the loss of some dear one. Generally you are less wise, short-tempered and of poor mental and physical health. These are the disqualifications for a successful and happy life. You are fickle-minded but generous-ready to serve the wise and learned; sick and talkative, unlucky.

• Characterless, prudent, long-lived, serves the low caste, little happiness from sons, suffers from eye troubles, gets a wound or boil on the head during the 10th year.

• Note: With the Sun in the 8th house, you will always undergo miseries, will establish relationships with persons of foreign origin, will lose wealth in thefts, will face severe and secretive dangers, will have a beautiful physique akin to that of (waxing) moon, will incur financial danger from all sides, weak sight and physical distress, will contact incurable venereal diseases, will always fight with others, will have few friends and will have some wealth, will not be steady in the career, will have limited progeny but be a skillful astrologer."
