Catherine Zeta Jones Jyotisha nativity - Barbara Pijan Lama Jyotisha

14:40 birth time from astrodatabank.com "from memory"

25-Sept-1969 at 2:38 pm in Swansea, Wales


Husband's health:

  • Five graha in the Mithuna navamsha suggest complications of the lungs, arms, and lower throat for the spouse of the native as well as a very busy and perhaps volatile mentality for the native herself

In mid-2008 CZJ entered the mahadasha of L-6+L-11 Shukra. Personal health concerns along with steadily high income can be predicted for 20 years.

  • In addition unfortunately Shukra is a highly inauspicious L-3+L-8 from the Meena Chandra lagna.

During gochara Rahu-Ketu transit across the Dhanushya-Mithuna axis of navamsha, the husband of Ms. Z-J (Mr Michael Douglas) suffered a severe onset of throat cancer .

  • Mr Douglas was a very heavy cigarette smoker, which can be seen in the complexity of graha in Mithuna navamsha

As of Nov 2010, CZJ has entered the Vimshottari period of Shukra/Surya

  • Surya = lord of 6th-from-Chandra= emotional stress

  • Surya = lord of Ketu = karaka for apathy or disorientation

  • Surya yuti Guru = first husband


Ketu in bhava-9 = Rahu in bhava-3

  • Ambivalence (Ketu) toward orthodox piety and father-figures  + desire (Rahu) to be recognized as a messenger of powerful information

Mental health

Shani-5 = neechchamsha. = her L-3 mental health = bipolar disease diagnosis

Shani-5 = neechchamsha = Eldest child = her stepson by marriage to actor-producer Michael Douglas = child's social behavior (drug, crime) problems, criminal prosecution.


The charismatically beautiful Welsh actress Catherine Zeta Jones married cinema actor-producer-businessman Michael Douglas on November 18, 2000.

  • Atmakaraka Guru in 7th navamsha suggests the highest calling in the present life is realization through marriage. Guru = karaka for first husband. Clearly he is highly articulate and intelligent (uchcha Budha) and fortunate (9) and a self-made businessman in the media communications industry (Guru = L-3 and Guru lord of Chandra).

  • Ms. Zeta-Jones has also matured into a millionaire businesswoman in her own right via licensing of her image and profit upon her media productions (3)

  • Michael Douglas is the talented and well-connected child of celebrated Hollywood figure Kirk Douglas.

    • The groom who also enjoys an Uttarabhadrapada Chandra was 55 at the time of this marriage.

  • The couple's first child from was born in August 2000; their second child was born in April 2003.

  • Gaja Kesari Yoga

  • Note education-depriving Shani neechcha in her 4th house of education. She did not finish high school but rather left home at 15 to begin her theatrical performance career.


Special Yogas for Dhanusha Lagna:

31. Sreenatha Yoga [uchcha Budha + L-9 in karma bhava for Dhanusha lagna only]

-- from ~~ B.V. Raman, " Three Hundred Important Combinations"(10th ed., Delhi, 1991).

Examples:

"Definition:

  • If the exalted lord of the 7th occupies the 10th AND the lord of the I0th is with the 9th lord,Sreenatha Yoga is caused.

  • Results: The native will have on his body the insignia of Vishnu, viz., the conch, the wheel, etc., be an agreeable speaker, godly, have a good wife and children and be loved by all.

  • Remarks: Sreenatha Yoga may be said to be one of the important Raja Yoga s, inasmuch as a point of contact is established between the 7th, 9th and 10th houses.

It is held to give rise to power as well as wealth. The lord of the 7th should be invariably exalted in the 10th, the lord of which, in turn, must be with the 9th lord.

Obviously Sreenatha Yoga can occur only in respect of Sagittarius in which case Mercury, lord of the 7th, could remain exalted in the 10th.

  • For no other Lagna can the 7th lord remain exalted in the 10th.

Since the original writers have laid emphasis on the fact that the 7th lord should be in the 10th* exalted, we have to conclude that the Yoga is a rare one and that it cannot arise with regard to any other sign of the zodiac than Sagittarius ..."


Initial meeting and pre-marital romance

Somewhat scandalous conditions = nodal influence upon the navamsha 1/7 axis

  • lover is 25 years her senior, he was married, and she became pregnant while he was still legally married (albeit long separated).Budha/Shani period

  • neechcha Shani Occupies 8th-from-Budha

  • Shani's lord Kuja is exceptionally strong in lagna

  • Shani = lord of Rahu

  • Shani = karaka for elders, established social position,

  • Shani rules the final bhukti of the Budha Mahadasha which had governed her life from age 14 to 30 - signaling "end of a way of life" .

  • The Budha-Shani period is particularly associated with endings and conclusions due to the karaka functions of Shani, as the inarguable finalizer, separator, delayer, materializer and law-enforcer.

  • Rahu enters Cancer 01/11/1999 until 07/30/2000

  • Ketu enters Capricorn 01/11/1999 until 07/30/2000


ch12_marr_dasha1.gifTiming of the wedding: November 18, 2000

Ketu-Ketu swabhukti

  • Ketu in navamsha lagna

As a chhaaya grahaa(shadow planet) Ketu does not rule any bhava.

Ketu gives effects of Lord Guru

  • Guru = karaka for first husband

  • Guru = atmakaraka

  • Guru = 7th-from-Chandra

  • Guru = atmakaraka in 7th navamsha

  • Guru = L-1+L-4 from lagna (physical appearance, home shelter)

  • Guru = L-11+L-12 from Chandra (goals and achievements, community and networks, spiritual retreat and dissolution or withdrawal into dreams)

Ketu is also empowered to provide marriage timing, due to Ketu's proximity to Shukra Gochara Rahu-Ketu

  • Rahu enters Gemini 07/30/2000 until 02/16/2002

  • Ketu enters Sagittarius 07/30/2000 02/16/2002

Rahu-Ketu had entered their psychic-transformation "return" positions in CZJ's charts, contacting:

  • radix lagna, Rahu in bhava-7

  • Ketu contact radix Mangala (Kuja-Dhanau-1,Behari says, "You gain renown and wealth, especially from overseas.")

  • navamsha Rahu-Ketu

  • navamsha-7, containing: Rahu, Budha, Guru, Mangala, and Shukra


In early autumn 2000 CZJ entered the intense first bhukti of Ketu mahadasha.

Rahu-Ketu are remarkably powerful during extraordinary transits AND the node-magnifying double-Ketu period (Ketu/Ketu.)

Thus empowered, Rahu-Ketu evoked the full drama of her brilliant 5-planet Gemini navamsha, displaying this couple's magnificent network of literary-creative relationships, especially with media people.

  • Rahu-Ketu were enormously powerful at this time, focusing all eyes on her radiantly beautiful persona as they transformed the wedding into a glittering, global celebrity event.


First husband

Shani = lord of lagna

Shani = lord of Uttarabhadrapada Chandra

Shani

Catherine Zeta Jones is approximately 25 years younger than her husband.

One significator of an older husband is the drishti of neechcha Shani, the significator of age, onto Zeta-Jones yuvati bhava. This relationship entered the commitment phase and their first child was born in the bride's period of Budha/Shani as well (a classic 6/8 period for the taboo romance).

In the worst cases, when Shani's oppression is completely unmitigated, the aspect of neechcha Shani can bring into the marriage qualities of bitterness, emotional coldness, oppressive duties, ignorance, racial hatred, heavy responsibilities for children, or poverty caused by ignorance.And also, Shani represents the benefits of age such as emotional maturity, patience, and wisdom of experience.

CZJ's Shani is improved by Shani's 5/9 angle to lord Kuja, where Kuja himself is in kendra and a friendly sign. This is not quite enough improvement for full neechhha bhanga - so there will be some stress in marriage due to husband's age and heavy responsibilities for children.


Guru, Budha

Overall significator for first husband = Guru. Guru is highly auspicious as lagnesha and L-4; lord of Chandra and 10th-from-Chandra..

Guru + exalted 7th lord Budha suggests a highly intelligent and generous husband whose public standing is very high (bhava-10 and lord of 10th-from-Soma). The spouse partners with her (L-7) to problem-solve some sticky situations is a very successful style, due ultimately to superior detail administration (Budha).

[Panchamahapurushayoga for benefics]

"If Budha, Guru, or Shukra be in 4th, 7th, or 10th from Lagna, or be in the company of Chandra in Lagna, the native will enjoy royal fortunes."

~~ BPHSChapter 12, shloka 5-7


Budha Mahadasha

CZJ's Mercury mahadasha as a whole was very favorable due to Budha's almost magical attributes. Even the awkward karma of a surprise child in Budha/Shani (with Shani in 5th house of children) or a the fact of her affianced being twice married and the age of her own father (which anyway is common amongst entertainers) barely disturbed the grandeur of this most excellent 7th lord.

Despite Shani's age significations, Shani plays a fairly minor role in defining CZJ's first husband. Primary evidence of the nature of the first spouse is normally seen in the 7th navamsha. This Gemini house vividly describes a glittering, powerful, well-connected, multi-cultural, articulate, and artistic spouse.

he 7th navamsha is exceptionally busy and complex. This marriage is focused on a particular range of traits and activities:

  • communications media [Kuja/Budha]

  • verbally gifted [Budha]

  • excellent memory [Guru/Budha]

  • part of a large network of exotic people, highly unusual, containing a number of cultural foreigners (Rahu)

  • despite the presence of foreign elements (Rahu) most of the transactions of the union share the native's her language and mentality (Budha)

  • international [Rahu]

  • wealthy [Rahu/Guru]

  • many wonderful friends [Guru/Rahu/Budha]

    • both men and women [Shukra/Kuja]

    • Of artistic distinction [Venus/Rahu].


Second marriage

Rahu in bhava-2 = self-elevation from the original social station at birth via the power of voice, face, speech, treasuries of collected knowledge and stored wealth, ability to utilize and project precious lineage values.

  • During Rahu periods, Rahu in 2 typically takes a great leap upward into a higher station of acquired or re-acquired (remembered) treasures of knowledge and wealth.

    • One attempts to rejoin an ancient knowledge lineage from which one was earlier ejected.

    • There is also usually something exotic or inappropriate in the family history(perhaps an illegitimate birth, perhaps several generations back) which alters the conventional flow of lineage knowledge, providing both opportunity for advancement and disruption of secure transmission in the line of inheritance (may be a genetic line or an superior astral heritage).


    May all beings venerate life as a state of deep spiritual intimacy.
