• Powerful cluster of graha in Simha,the rashi of politics

  • Purvaphalguni = ruled by Shukra, wealth and luxury; note Shukra in Mithuna for communications media and Rahu = oil)

  • Uttaraphalguni = ruled by Surya = politics

  • lord of the lunar lagna = Shukra + Rahu "great leap to the top"

• Karakamsha Vrishabha in bhava-10 = top ranked position. Mr Johnson stopped at nothing to attain the supreme national political elite rank.

• bhava-11= income; lord Budha = communications media in the Chandra lagna politics. Although posing as an impoverished rancher, Johnson became an extremely wealthyman during his long career in political service, rising from humble Texas family to a multi-millionaire during the 1960's. Shukra exceptionally strong for wealth with Guru in Vrishabha navamsha.

• Yogakaraka L-4+L-9 Kuja = identity with education (school-teacher) and the common folk (4) + religious facade (9) along with authentic power to apply civil rights justice and higher philosophical principles to improve the lives of common people in the South. Johnson attended a working class Teacher's College in the 1930's Depression Era

  • "War on Poverty" = Shani = L-6 poverty gets war drishti from Mangala

  • Chandra + Mangala = money money money in lagna

  • Chandra + Mangala + Budha + Guru = dominated by Surya = politics politics politics

  • Kuja = karaka for warfare; Johnson made huge profits from businesses engaged in the Vietnam War.

• Shani in bhava-8 = university education. , which accounts for his tough Shani in the house of higher education and religion. Johnson never forgot (Shani never forgets) the crushing, enslaving poverty he saw as a young teacher; as as a result he promoted educational investment for the lower classes consistently, during his long political career.

  • L-7 Shani in 8 = abusive and disregarding of his wife; numerous long and short affairs de coeur

• conversation-loving, luxury-loving Shukra = atmakaraka, much amplified by oily Rahu. Johnson loved to socialize in the various Dallas and Austin clubs, where he met his high-rolling luxury-loving, oily-gassy friends.

  • Rahu would much increase material fortunes on the basis of conversational and sexual relationships

• a classic "spread" for sacrificial public leaders: of all graha between Rahu and Ketu, except one(Shani is outside the Rahu-Ketu enclosure)

• Ketu in bhava-5 = owned and aspected by Guru.

  • an unconcerned, disengaged acceptance, due to Guru's wise aspect, toward children and political immorality . LBJ fathered at least two children outside of marriage but their existence was absolutely disavowed.

The reading above is based on Chandra lagna due to the generality of the birth time. However, one item of confirmation for a birth time near 04: 55 or so = L.B. Johnson's legendary "tight squeeze" resulting in an intimidatingemotional style, characteristic cheapness, and resource control fixation . One of LBJ's numerous mistresses recounts that the night before the JFK assassination, Johnson squeezed her hand so hard that it was painful, and she was frightened at his rage.

• Azlesa Nakshatra is known for several expressions of the "tight squeeze". Also, Azlesa tends to get very involved in the intrigue of other people's lives, and this nakshetra is intensely needy of holding, affectionate embrace (Johnson enjoyed numerous mistresses).

These famous LBJ photos = the "Azlesa Squeeze" + body postures = intimidation.

One aspect of the tight squeeze is secreting away piles of money while "poor mouth" pretending to be subsistence poor. According to Wikipedia,

• "Johnson was famously frugal. Even as President, White House tapes recorded him asking a photographer to take his family portraits for free, saying he was a very poor man living on a weekly paycheck and had a very great deal of financial debt. In fact Johnson was a multimillionaire, but he still wasn't charged for the photographic portraits.

The White House press corps made jokes at his expense regarding his habit of turning off all lights in the White House when the rooms were not in use.

• Johnson's secretary revealed years later that he would wash and reuse Styrofoam cups. His favorite soft drink was Fresca, which he drank constantly. Johnson had a small control box installed in the writing desk in the small personal office adjacent to the Oval Office. This control box contained two buttons, marked "Coffee" and "Fresca". Pushing one of these buttons would summon Johnson's military aide bringing the appropriate drink."
