Politics 22:Thomas Jefferson


   

 

 


 

Thomas Jefferson


1743 - 1826


  • Principal Author of USA Declaration of Independence - 1776

  • 3rd President of USA: 1801-1809

  • 2nd USA Vice President: 1797–1801

  • 1st US Secretary of State: 1789-1793

  • Governor of Virginia: 1779–1781


preceded by: John Adams

succeeded by: Aaron Burr


Rectification of the birth time:

Thomas Jefferson was spectacularly talented political philosopher, architect, writer, and statesman - inter alia. However some aspects of his human character and behavior, particularly his intimate relationships, are considered unusual to the point of being inappropriate. He is also very much associated with a massive military & political revolution, with metal implements, and frequent journeys by sea.

The current rectification accounts nicely for this historical view of the man by placing neechha Kuja in lagna. Kuja gets neechha bhanga in this position; the partivartana yoga created with Chandra thereby gives Kuja intense courage, literary capabilities, and frequent journey by sea.  


I have rectified the radix to a 12:30pm birth time. 

12:30 pm birth time results in:

  •  yogakaraka L5/L10 Kuja in lagna, enjoying parivartana yoga with Vrischika Chandra - association with war, spying, and treason (to Britain)

  • exalted Surya in the powerful 10th domain, 

  • philosophical Budha in the 9th house of philosophy & priesthood.

  • Rahu in navamsha lagna reflects his philosophical passions, association with political revolution, and potential taboo intimate relationships

  • lord of the dashamsha lagna becomes uccha Ravi

  • lord of the 10th dashamsha becomes the remarkable Mesha Shukra, yuti (but not combust) uccha Ravi & empowered raja yoga Rahu

  • plus a number of other satisfying results :)

(No confirmed birth time is recorded.)

General observations:

  • Clearly Jefferson is a very active man and an agent for change with a philosophical, humanistic orientation.  

  • The social identity which marks his life's work is directly adversarial and enormously capable of risk (especially involving travel by sea) - per the rising yogakaraka Kuja.  

  • The highly empowered collection of : Uccha Ravi, Rahu, Shukra, and neechha Chandra - are all tenants of Kuja!
