(House of Tudor)
Elizabeth I of
England
7 September 1533 - 24 March 1603
daughter of
Henry VIII King of England (born 1491)

Hers
was the scarred and pitted face that launched a thousand ships.
Wracked by smallpox, Elizabeth lost her hair at age 29.
She wore brilliant red wigs for the rest of her life. She covered
the terrible pock marks with a thick layer of the cosmetic paste used by
actors in the theatre (L-5 Guru in 5).
Her father
King Henry VIII had murdered her mother
for reasons of political expediency. (L-9 Mangala Father in 6 criminal
actions).
Disinherited and then reinstated on the whims of her
powerful but volatile dad (Surya in 8), and prone to severe sickness,
Elizabeth survived multiple traumas. She watched and learned (uchcha
Mangala). As a ruler with many competitors for her throne, Elizabeth
exemplified the political virtues of her day: she was charming, shrewd,
and occasionally ruthless.

Elizabeth enjoyed
good business instincts (uchcha-Makara-Kuja) which allowed her to promote the
earliest expansions of what would later become the British Empire.
She was able to right some of the grievous financial
wrongs of the administration of her father
King Henry VIII, including massive
overspending and outright theft by the aristocracy of his day.
Due to
Chandra-Mangala yoga in Makara-Karkata, her own wealth grew
considerably during her reign - in large part due to profits from
government-funded piracy (uchcha Kuja-6) and ocean shipping trade with
foreign lands (swakshetra Karkata Chandra in 12).
Elizabeth was a diligent student (Shani drishti
to lagna) who paid attention to details and had a sharp sense of political
timing along with a charismatic style of rulership, once she got into
power.

 |
Clearly (see paintings) she had an exaggerated and
quite reddish sense of magisterial presentation (Rahu-Magha in lagna).
History records that she helped put cold, broke, and
unstable England on a course to commercial dominance of the burgeoning
world sea trade; handily eliminated each and every one of her many
adversaries (uchcha Kuja-6) whilst engaging in quite a bit of
interpersonal and sexual intrigue ( Azlesa
Chandra); and managed to establish a number of powerful alliances
which helped her to achieve her personal goals (Kumbha) without getting
entrapped in a dominating marriage (Kumbha, Ketu in 7).
Ketu in bhava-7 =
Rahu in
bhava-1
- Ambivalence (Ketu) toward partners, contracts, mutual interest
with Others
- Desire to be recognized (Rahu) as a Great Personality

Elizabeth presided over an English economy
beginning to grow tremendously under her capable business
guidance, but the vast majority of profits were gained via forced
laboron England's growing fleet of ships -
It was an economy built on daring exploration,
slavery and
piracy

Elizabeth had no children (L-8 in 5; karako
bhavo nashto). She may have become sterile as a result of
smallpox. However her sense of royal privilege and celebrity
fashion (5) was utterly unrestrained. She was noted to be
exceptionally intelligent. -
L-8 in 5 can produce great wealth if the native
is also denied children -
From
Planets in Signs
and Houses, by Bepin Behari
(p. 149):
-
"Unless the planet is well
fortified by association with or the aspect of benefics, the lord of Eight
in the fifth house is inauspicious for children and the mental
equilibrium. -
The
individual seldom begets a child, and even if a child
is born he becomes wayward and rebellious, a burden to the family. -
In this
situation however there is a possibility of the individual Acquiring
substantial wealth,
especially if he is denied
children .

-
Are all inhabiting her house of partnership and
contractual agreements. -
However Ketu there makes Her Majesty quite
ambivalent about marriage and Kumbha in general is so scientific,
conceptual and abstract in thought (Budha) that she quite likely
did not wish to be bothered by any one dominant contract. -
Rather,
she remained mobile and responsive to the networking opportunities
(Kumbha) as they
arose.
