Unions 21
 Lisa Marie Presley
Four marriages
 
The American singer & famous daughter Lisa
Marie Presley,
has married four times by the age of 38.
Overall indications for multiple marriage, observed in D-1/D-9:
Radix
-
According to Parashara, Karka
lagna typically has marriage karma of an older or withdrawn or
withholding or conservative spouse, due to Shani = lord of Yuvati
-
L-2 Surya, a divorce lord, is
morally weak in Makara/7. Marriage vows are weakened by this placement.
-
L-7 Shani + Rahu, whenever L-7 is with amplifying, risk-taking
Rahu, this yoga contributes to multiple marriages
-
L-7 = Shani, & Shani gains strength in marriage matters because Shani
rises in navamsha,
increasing the native's karmic obligation to form one difficult marriage after the
next
-
Vrischika
= navamsha lagna indicates generally an attitude toward marriage
as a secret relationship. The tantric, sexual, or shamanistic qualities of
the spousal relationship are emphasized. This native prefers her marriage
behaviors to be protected from public inquiry. (Thus a marriage which
suffers extreme publicity such as her marriage
#2 to Michael Jackson, will be intolerable.)
-
Because L-7 is yuti Rahu, the likelihood of marriage events is increased
during periods of Rahu and also gochara Rahu/Ketu
"returns" to marriage lagnas
Navamsha
-
Shani & Kuja occupy the navamsha lagna axis.
-
Kuja is neutral to Shani,
but Shani sees Mars as an enemy.
(Shani's conservatism hates
Mangala's impulsiveness.)
-
D-9 shows the inner, spiritual life of the native. D-9 creates the blueprint
for the intimacy of marriage.
-
Psychically, Kuja/Vrishabha in the 7th navamsha shows that this native expects a strong,
sensual & artistic male force to energize & define her
identity (navamsha L-1 in 7). And that would work just fine...
if it weren't for the "showstopper" of Shani in the D-9 lagna,
which marks the inner environment with vindictive self-criticism &
repressed anger.
-
Kuja/Vrishabha in the 7th navamsha, which represents the spouse, is very
loving, generous, & sexual.
Each marriage is entered with
positive expectation. Yet the inner conflict is severe; the cycle of
marriages responds, however successfully, to the inner call to resolve that
conflict by learning more about the Self through the Mirror of intimate
Other..
Modern marriage is increasingly less determined by economic survival &
village ethos than in eras past (and than marriage still is, in the third
world). Whether the native has one marriage, multiple marriages, or no
marriage at all, each spin of the marriage wheel gives an opportunity to bring
subconsciously stored information about one's core marriage - to the divine -
up to the surface of consciousness.
 Marriage
1 = 3-Oct-1988.
Shani/Rahu period
Gochara Rahu-Ketu
Characteristics:
The first husband is shy
& socially retreating, defined by a low-confidence Surya/Makara & L-7
Shani being austere & spiritual.
Das says, "Your personal life will be a mystery; isolated from society, you are withdrawn, making you appear to be a kind of sleepwalker".
Social duty, good
behavior, & fear of exposure predominate.
-
child-1
= Shani/Rahu - 29-May-1989
-
Rahu
gives effect of his lord Guru
-
child-2
= Shani/Guru - 21-Oct-1992
-
Guru
is karaka for children
Marriage 2 =
18-May-1994
Lisa
Marie Presley's 2nd marriage to Michael
Jackson was emotionally damaged by extremely difficult graha in her
domain-9 = 2nd-from-Chandra. Shani + Rahu/Simha/9 also afflicts the father, Elvis
Presley. When a female nativity features Soma in domain-9, and there
is trouble in dharma bhava, it will be mirrored by both the father and the
second husband. (Also much trouble from religious figures.)
Ms. Presley stated after Mr. Jackson's
death that the similarity of their willfully (Simha) self-destructive
(Shani + Rahu) drug-lifestyle problems was uncanny, and she was
powerless to help either one of them.
Budha/Budha period
-
This is a very
peculiar Vimshottari marriage timing. Perhaps when I have further matured in Jyotisha I will be able
to explain how Budha/Budha period creates a marriage in this D-9...
-
If the birth time is increased from the
given time of 17:01 hrs to a new time of 17:21 hrs, then Budha becomes the
navamsha L-7 and this timing might make sense. Celebrity birth times are of
course inherently unreliable.
Gochara
Rahu/Ketu
External social profile & traits, 2nd
spouse:
-
the 4 grahas which populate LMP's 2/8
lagna suggest that spouse-2 has a high-profile personality
-
spouse-2 is powerfully activated when
gochara Rahu/Ketu enter Kumbha/Simha
-
radix house-2 = Simha-Guru, a
karaka for wealth & prestige.
-
The Kumbha group Chandra/Kuja/Budha
create a very complex self -other relationship in the 2nd marriage. These
traits include emotional trauma (Chandra), eccentricity & awkward
communication (Budha) & frequent surgeries (Kuja) involving the skin
(Kumbha).
L-9 Guru occupies house-2, creating
a powerful psychic resemblance between the 2nd husband & the father.
L-2 Surya occupies a navamsha of Budha,
which suggests that radix Budha/Kumbha - a very peculiar position - defines
the marriage. This spouse is an eccentric
genius, perhaps dangerously isolated, who relates brilliantly to the unknown masses while oppressed in
communication to his own tribe.
Also, L-9 in dhana bhava (i.e.,
L-9 = lord of 8th-from-2nd) is a second divorce
indicator.
(2nd divorce will be hostile due to poor conditions in house-9, but
1st divorce is amicable due to auspicious conditions in house-2.)
Marriage 3 = 10-Aug-2002
Ms. Presley's emotional relationship to the
third spouse (the film actor Nicolas Cage) is profiled via L-4 = Mula Shukra
in domain-6. Misfortune in the 3rd marriage due to love of recklessness,
sex addictions and marital disagreements.
-
Age 34
-
partner = actor & fellow entertainer,
Nicolas Coppola Cage
-
Karaka for the third husband = graha
with Shani. Karaka for the third marriage can be either Ketu or Rahu, the
two graha most closely associated with Shani. Third husband is likely
"Ketu" given the quick separation and volatility, Ketu's lord
being Budha in 8 with impulsive Kuja/Chandra.
Budha/Rahu period
Gochara Rahu/Ketu
External traits of the 3rd spouse should
be known from the 9/3 axis of radix. One look at this native's Kanya/Meena
axis will show that spouse-3 is a passionate, impulsive, & perhaps
resentful personality with extraordinary inner tension. Despite creative
genius this person may be almost impossible to live with. L-8
Shani in house-9 for 3rd marriage is also a divorce indicator, although it
would not have enough power to cause divorce without the amplification of
Rahu. During Rahu period, while Rahu-Ketu return to the natal points,
marriage-3 is intense, volatile, & brief.
Marriage 4 =
22-Jan-2006
-
Age 38
-
(to fellow musician, Michael Lockwood)
-
Karaka for the 4th husband = graha
associated with Shani. The karaka in this case can be either Rahu or Ketu.
Likely the karaka is Rahu, since Rahu in domain-9 for "children of
children" will give the effects of child-karkaka Guru, and a second
family of children (twins) were born into this marriage.
Budha/Guru period
-
Similar to marriage-2, the Vimshottari
period of Guru is a very unusual timing for a marriage. It would make
sense if the birth time were increase to 17:21 hours
Traditionally,
and still to this day in very conservative societies, a period of Guru can
bring into the life of a marriageable woman a man who is literally her Guru,
who brings everything to her. But this signification is unlikely for a
modern woman in control of a large material fortune.
However,
the power of Rahu in radix & navamsha is dramatic, & Rahu-Ketu's
return to the natal Meena/Kanya axis guarantees that something dramatic,
similar to its first effects in 1988, would occur. That something
dramatic was another marriage. Guru typically brings children, so
prognosis for children through this union is strong.
Gochara Rahu-Ketu
External
traits of the 4th spouse should be
known from the 10/4 axis of radix. For this native Mesha/Thula axis of D-1
contains no graha. L-10 Kuja in navamsha gives the results of Shukra
(music) while L-4 Shukra in navamsha gives the results of Surya. Overall
there is a strong correlation between marriage-1 and marriage-4. There
is no strong attraction or repulsion factor in marriage-4. However the period
of L-8 Shani, a core disruptive factor in the interior landscape seen via
navamsha Shani rising in the rashi of enemy Kuja, follows the period of the
4th marriage. Shani is a karaka for separations, and in Budha mahadasha Shani
is also the final or "closure" bhukti. Shani is a
separator. Ketu mahadasha, likely to
bring both meditation & moodiness, follows after Shani.
Marriage profile is composed of:
-
radix house-7 and L-7
-
radix Chandra &
7th-from-Chandra/its lord
-
navamsha lagna, navamsha house-7, and
L-1/L-7 within the D-9
-
navamsha L-1/L-7 as they function
within the radix
1. radix yuvati
bhava
The profile components from radix house-7
define the first marriage in particular, and set a framework for all
subsequent marriages.
Subsequent marriages will show different
external traits, the subsequent spouses may have different professions, social
markers, emotional makeup etc. but the native's general behavior pattern
within marriage will repeat across all marriages for the current lifetime from
the profile set in yuvati bhava, L-7, & lords of navamsha L-1/L-7.
Here is the portion of the marriage
behavior profile presented in radix:
-
Karka
lagna and Simha lagna both
have built-in marriage troubles due to Shani's lordship of their seventh
houses. Marriage tends to be motivated by perceived necessity, and the
theme of duty & responsibility is stronger than the themes of love or
voluntary compromise. Duty is not a bad thing in marriage, and can be a
sustaining force during difficult patches. However, there is a
somber and heavy quality to marriage which will be either helped or harmed
by occupying planets in house-7.
-
Surya
in house-7 is problematic in any rashi. Surya is karaka for independence,
individuality, & the soul's direct, unmediated connection to the
divine. Marriage is about interdependence & sentimental
attachment, mediated relationship to the divine through the partner, &
the privilege to see oneself in the mirror of the partner.
When Surya occupies house-7 the
partner-mirror shows an image of the native as a socially important
individual rather than as a private, intimate partner. Even if their work is
not famous, the native gets better ego validation from their role in greater
society than from marriage. As a result marriage is not nourished
(Surya is the hot, dry enemy of Shukra). Divorce is likely.
-
Surya is unfavorably placed in the
rashis of Surya's mutual enemy
Shani. Some of the general characteristics of Ravi/Makara are
"interest in low class persons, greed, working in low jobs, timidity, lacking relatives, fickle, a wanderer, weak,
can lose everything due to conflicts with his relatives, a voracious eater."
Surya receives no planetary drishti in
Lisa Marie's rashi kundali, so there is little positive modification of
these basic traits which represent the character of the spouse as well as
the image of oneself which is reflected back to the native via the spouse.
-
Das
says that when Ravi/Makara occupies house-7, "Your intellect is so turbulent that you will not be sexually satisfied, even with an attractive
& cooperative spouse. You either have no children, or have rebellious ones. You seek out sexual liaisons with those who move in social circles higher than your own."
May all beings venerate life as a
state of deep spiritual intimacy.
