the Jyotisha nativity is fascinatingly contradictoryand complex.

young_Churchill.gif
Inspirational nature of genius in Literature, speeches, journalism:
  • L-3 in 1 as well as L-9 in 3.

  • Churchill wrote extensively on broadly philosophical bhava-9 topics such as history and the march of civilizations,

  • journalistic L-3 Kanya-Mangala in lagna also produced remarkable and inspiring war (Kuja) journalism (Kanya, 3). Mangala = lord of 10th navamsha Vrischika also shows lifelong professional relationship to War.

  • His short-format (3) WWII-era speeches written to be inspiring and not explanatory are nevertheless a cornerstone of his literary legacy

Distinctive features of the Nativity

powerful public career under exceptionally contentious and adversarial circumstances

Gulika in Simha; Dhuma in Meena

Writing success = L-5 in 5; L-3 in lagna

Uttaraphalguni lagna = the Surya-ruled politics-and-theatre trine

= Krittika - Uttaraphalguni - Uttaraashadha

The extraordinary public and private life of Winston Churchill includes spectacular leadership for Britain during the darkest hours of World War II.

  • Churchill's nativity is dominated by Shukra (art and alcohol), Budha (speech and literature) and Kuja (competition and war).

    He is best remembered for his eloquent, ennobling speechesand his pugnacious refusal to surrenderBritain's fate to Nazi domination.

  • Churchill was a seasoned military fighter(Kuja)

  • with exquisiteliterary and oratorical skills (lagnesha Budha in 2, speeches), Lord of the Dashamsha of Radix L-10

  • an international front-line journalist (Budha lord of rising Kuja)

  • with lifelong alcoholissues (Shukra),

  • Marriage is moderate, with spouses enjoying plenty of intelligence and money. Lord of the Navamsha of Radix L-10 and Shukra = Lord of 10th-from- Chandra ; spouse helps career

  • the native is exceptionally artistic and a bit of a lush: 6 graha in rashi of Shukra (D-1 + D-9)

  • a victim of severe emotional depression(Chandra/12),

  • &

  • Churchill was privy to some terrifying war secrets (Rahu-Mesha-8)

  • including the specter of the annihilationof the free (Mesha) world by the self-power-crazed tyrants Hitler and Stalin (Mesha, megalomania).

Surya Mahadasha

churchill_dasha1.JPGVargottamsha Surya in Vrischikain navamsha-9 = a Great Inspirational Preacher in Times of War

  • compare to USA Pres-32 Franklin Delano Roosevelt, also a loaded 10th navamsha Vrischika (FDR fought both the Great Depression and WW-2)

  • Churchill's own father Lord Randolph Churchill was also a wealthy, brilliant politician and strategist


1900, first election to Parliament

  • Surya/Guruperiod

  • Guru = L-4+L-7 radix; L-7 = career karaka

  • Guru occupies bhava-2 for speeches

  • Guru = lord of 10th Dashamsha (shows career direction of preaching and wisdom-showing public guidance)

Chandra Mahadasha
  • age 29-39

  • L-11 from Kanya lagna

  • L-12 from Simha Chandra

His Mother Jenny Churchill = Chandra in 12

  • a very wealthy socialite (Chandra = L-11) and political wife (Chandra's lord Surya + Shukra = Simha) Churchill's mother was from a distant land (Chandra-12) half-Iroquois American, born in Brooklyn NY

  • Known for her clandestine affairs (12)Jenny married three times, each time finding a younger husband. In his childhood this mother was very distant from young Winston who was sent away to boarding school (12) and received no family visits (Chandra = parents in 12) however his mother also politically campaigned (Chandra lord of 3) and fundraised (Chandra = L-11) for him; in adulthood after Winston had entered Chandra mahadasha, his mother vigorously promoted his career.


Marriage= Sept. 1908

  • Chandra/Shaniperiod - Shani = L-1 navamsha

  • gochara Rahu/Ketu cross Mithuna/Dhanusha = navamsha Moon + Shani

Kuja Mahadasha

  • age 39-46

  • L-3+L-8 from Kanya lagna

  • Yogakaraka L-4+L-9 from Simha Chandra

  • Kuja = lord of 10th navamsha, career = war

  • L-3+L-8 Kuja = a highly inauspicious influence for Kanya lagna

  • Lord of Surya

  • Pugnacious, verbally aggressive, and self-identified with deadly-conflict situations: rising double-malefic, L3+L8 hyper-critical Kuja/Kanyain radix.

Along with FDR , PM-Churchill = considered (at least within the Anglosphere) as a true savior of the Free World.

  • Winston Churchill's writings which express his viewpoints upon language and history are skillfully practical, profoundly aesthetic, and truly sanguine.

  • He possessed powerful artistic gifts (atmakaraka navamsha uchcha Shukra), producing over the 90 years of his life more than 500 paintings and sculptures.

  • He was a great historian (Shani/5) with a stunningly capacious, detailed, and expansively descriptive writing style.

  • Yet, in the minds of most scholars and observers, Churchill is predominantly a man of war. Even before his extraordinary performance as Prime Minister of Britain during WWII, Churchill sought war - going to foreign lands in search of it. The navamsha lagna, set by the timing of his marriage, receives drishti of empowered Mangala, while the sexual and sharply critical L-3+L-8 Mangala rises in radix lagna. Meena the karakamsha (that for which one is most reputed) = domain 7, the house of negotiations and alliances, gives remarkable power to form partnerships of war. His own marriage, suffering Kuja Dosha with no corrections, was notably unhappy.

  • In his daily life and social views, he was an anglo-centric aristocratic bigotwith numerous and pronounced flaws of character, and was considered by many as a difficult or evenimmoral human being.(Ketu in 2, apathetic toward lineage values; Mangala L-3+L-8 in 1 = always a problem for Kanya lagna, see Bill Clinton.)


Kuja mahadasha = a bad seven years for Churchill

However, Kuja = uchcha in dashamsha, he continues to build power base

1915 = Gallipoli = a disastrous military mistake
  • Kuja/Rahu period= initial stage

  • Rahu amplifies the aggressive Lord Kuja, at an inauspicious 6/8 angle for hostility and conflict

  • Kuja/Guru= continuation, failure in Dardanelles

  • Guru located an inauspicious 2/12 angle from Kuja: suggests intrigue, blaming, heavy loss

Guru:

  • is with confusing, detached Ketu in D-1, D-9, and D-10.

  • As L7 radix and L10 in BOTH navamsha and dashamsha, Guru is a career karaka

  • however Guru's proximity to Ketu = bad or confused decisions.

Rahu Mahadasha

  • age 46-64

  • Rahu occupies bhava-8, gives effects of Kuja

  • L-3+L-8 from Kanya lagna

  • L-4+L-9 from Simha Chandra

  • Rahu Mahadasha amplifies the negative, adversarial effects of Rahu's lord the rising L3+L8 Kuja.

  • increasing the magnitude, Rahu receives drishti of Kuja

  • Rahu occupies a rashi of Mangala in radix, navamsha, AND dashamsha

  • However, super-malefic Rahu period has some career-sustaining benefits:

  • Kuja = uchcha in dashamsha

  • L-7 Guru who is also L-10/navamsha and dashamsha,

    • = yuti Ketu/Rahu within 1 degree of orb

    • a VERY tight relationship signifying intensive contact with foreigners

  • major career-driver Budha also occupies the radix Rahu/Ketu lagna

With Rahu's lord Mangala in lagna, he was forced to plead for help (Kanya) from secret alliances (8). He had a passion for hidden dangernaturally with L-8 and Rahu's lord Kuja in lagna and traveled the world to write argumentative accounts (Kanya) of war.


Churchill's political career survives

  • despite massive strategic governing errors and political isolation for his bigoted pugnaciousness.

1924-1929, Chancellor of the Exchequer

  • Rahu/Guruperiod

  • Churchill admits that returning the pound sterling to the Gold Standard was the worst mistake he ever made

  • Begin worldwide Depression

1930-1937 - Political Isolation, intensive writing

  • Rahu/Ketuperiod - disconnected, isolated, interior focus

1938, "Winston's Back" - Navy

  • Rahu/Kuja period

  • return to military leadershipin preparation for Britain's entrance to World War II

Guru Mahadasha

  • age 64-80

  • L-4+L-7 from Kanya lagna

  • L-5+L-8 from Simha Chandra

  • Guru = lord of 10th navamsha

  • Lord of Yuvati bhava (10th-from-10th)

  • Guru = L-10 and Guru yuti L-7 Budha = very strong career package

    Yet Guru = exactly conjunct Ketu = circumstances of career = eccentric and scattered.

    In fact (see below) some of Churchill's biggest self-proclaimed errors occur in Guru periods Note Guru's extraordinary relationship to Rahu/Ketu

    • exactly conjunct Ketu, and very close to career-driver Budha

  • Rahu is an extremely malefic force in Mesha the rashi of war,

    • in bhava-8 for the circumstances of death and secret information networks

churchill_dasha2.JPG

Guru/Guru period - onset of World War II

  • Guru/Shaniperiod - terrible enemies, victims, scarcity, debt, political alliances, fortunate help

  • = lord of 10th navamsha in radix lagna = Shani = "double L-6"

  • Guru/Budha- era of miraculously heartening speeches,

    • refuse to surrender, crafting of plans and strategies/tactics

    • Lord of Karma Bhava

  • Guru/Ketuperiod - out of office, confusion and disconnection

  • Guru/Suryaperiod -

  • Guru/Chandraperiod -

  • Guru/Suryaperiod -

  • Guru/Kuja- return to popularity, begin second term as P.M

  • Guru/Rahuperiod -

  • Shani Mahadasha

    • age 80-90

    • death

    • L-5+L-6from Kanya lagna

    • L-6+L-7 from Simha Chandra

    Shani = "double L-6"

    • Shani/Shani - resignation from public office,. in failing health

    • Shani = lord of navamsha (shows the spiritual path)

    Shani in bhava-5 is naturally problematic for children, causing the offspring to seem a heavy burden upon one's scarce resources of money and time. Activities with children which might normally be the source of delight become a source of worry and delay.

    Churchill was the father of five children with whom he had troubled relationships.

    The troubles inherent in Shani-5 can often improve with maturity and the children becoming themselves adults. However in Churchill's case Shani owns and occupies the difficult 6th-from-Chandra, suggesting that Churchill apprehended his children as enemies and this complexity would have must increased his own dislike of parenting.


    15-Jan-1965, death
    • Shani/Suryaperiod (may actually be Shani/Shukra if BT was rectified closely)

    • After Death, honors (L-5) pour in from around the world

    B.V. Raman, Three Hundred Important Combinations

    11. Vanchana Chora Bheethi Yoga - Cheated and Cheats

    "Definition.-

    • The Lagna is occupied by a malefic with Gulika in a trine
    • or Gulika is associated with the lords of Kendras and Thrikonas
    • or the Lord of Lagna is combined with Rahu, Saturn or Kethu.

    Results.- the native will always entertain feelings of suspicion towards others around him. He is afraid of being cheated, swindled and robbed. Here three sets of combinations can apply:
    • ascendant must have an evil planet with Gulika disposed in the 5th or 9th.
    • Gulika should be associated with the lords of 1, 4, 7, 10, 5 and 9.
    • Lord of Lagna should join Rahu or Saturn or Kethu.
    In all these cases, the person will not only have fears from cheats, rogues and thieves but he will also have huge material losses.

    The combinations pertaining to this Yoga are found in almost all horoscopes, so that we are all guilty of cheating and being cheated one another in some form or the other.

    It is a tragedy of our social life that a merchant minting millions at the cost of the poor is left scot-free while the poor, committing theft in the face of poverty and want, are booked by law.


    Cheating is practiced in a variety of ways. Fertile brains find countless methods to cheat their associates. The merchants have various ways of cheating their clients. The lawyer is equally successful. The medical man commands many ways to defraud his patients.

    Gulika is considered the son of Saturn and his position is to be carefully fixed in the Zodiac. The Yoga given above refers to persons who will be the victims of fraud but the same combination can also be extended to apply to those who perpetrate the deeds."
