innovation, identity, birth

Trajectory via New Identity: Physical Body and Social Attributes

Mahadasha of Rahu and most bhukti of Rahu (depending on Rahu's angle to the mahadasha pati) will exhibit the script qualities of Mesha. Rahu's disruptive and disorderly behavior is energized into dynamic forward movement under lordship of Mangala.

The Great Leap Forward often occurs at birth or during infancy, via a namingceremony, by jumping into a new privileges not based in the blood lineage of the station of birth. The typical starting scene is sports competition, one's own birth, an event of male sexual dominance or pursuit, an innovation or invention. the native enjoys a distinctive bloodline which is irregular or forbidden in some way.

The Rahu experience begins with some variety of competitive challenge (according to the bhava) whichprioritizes the native either physically, psychologically, or spiritually.

An enunciation of innovation, invention, and new birth is required. The environment supports primitive, competitive and dominating behaviors, and the important actors typically hold rank of winner, athlete, warrior, first citizen, etc.

• Tremendous stress on the flesh body maintaining a fit and competitive physique

  Instinct from inside, dominance from outside

the native might engage in self-promoting behavior driven by sudden, obsessive attraction. The intense focus upon the fleshly attributes of the social personality or the body might start (or seem to start) from completely external circumstances, such as sports exercise or warriors preparation for combat. One might start the cycle with a desire to invent new devices for generating heat and speed (such as engines) or to be ascribed the agency of having completely new, radically innovative ideas. The point is that one seeks to be singular, unmatched, and to come in first.

The longer the Rahu period, the more opportunity for dramatic development. After the physicalizing event, there is continuous attention to competitive advantage, singularity, and independent movement. the native cannot bear to be restricted, and one will seek the vehicles and environments which support the greatest freedom of kinesthetic space. One may seek the high atmosphere, the broad plains, or the open ocean.

If Rahu is associated with a Maraka graha

• the craving for approved and lawful appearancemay be punctuated by deaths or severe loss such as divorce. The death or profound separation can be self-inflicted due to Rahu's restless discontent.

Rahu brings important new actors into the life scene, and these actors are typically from a different cultural background. the native is adopted (often as an infant) into the culture of the new actor, and may be asked to take anew name, so that the primary identity is mapped to the physical body. One needs to acquire or remember elements of this new actor's worldview in order for the native to make the leapinto one's next life phase.

Vrishabha

uchchamsha

retain the value, retell the story, restore the wealth

Trajectory via Values, Knowledge, Story-telling, and death

Mahadasha of Rahu and most bhukti of Rahu (depending on Rahu's angle to the mahadasha pati) will exhibit the script qualities of Vrishabha. Rahu enjoys the uchcha status in Vrishabha. On the material level, results of Rahu periods are favorable, enriching, and sensually indulgent.

The typical starting scene is a treasury of value: fields and forests loaded with foods and natural resources, a family historyand its lineage wealth, collections of art and music, perfumes and oils, droves of cattle, storehouses of knowledge and money.

The Rahu experience begins with acquisition of assets (according to the bhava) whichenrich the native either physically, psychologically, or spiritually.

An enunciation of the art of resource collecting is required. The environment supports every type of sensual pleasure, from the ever-satisfying pleasures of nutritious food and drink to the elite enjoyments of perfumes, jewels, cattle, and wines. Important actors typically hold rank of banker, collector, funds administrator, etc.

Pleasure from inside, pleasure from outside

• the native might engage in acquisitive sensual behavior driven by a sudden, obsessive attraction to anunusual source of value.

• The enriching of the social personality or the body might start (or seem to start) from completely external circumstances, such as a business engagement with cattle, resource warehousing, food storage, financial hoards, collecting and recording of historical knowledge. One might start the cycle with a desire to know more about history, esp within one's own family lineage, and to have more to eat.

Knowledge of Values, Languages, and Historical Forms of Wealth

• The longer the Rahu period, the more opportunity for dramatic development. After embarking upon the quest for more and better sources of food, drink, and wealth, there is continuous development of historical knowledge regarding how one's lineage predecessors have stored information, made records, developed resource banks, and placed valuation upon various desirable commodities.

• Rahu in Vrishabha is an excellent placement for the professional evaluator, food cultivator, resource conserver, record-keeper and assets owner.

• Rahu/Rahu for Bill Clinton = Rhodes scholarship to Oxford U., where he undertook the study of history and the wealth of nations with a great passion for philosophical knowledge (9).

• During the Rahu+Rahu swabhukti of Rahu in Dharma Bhava (universities) Bill Clinton also met and partnered with the theological and law scholar (9) Miss Hillary Rodham.

If Rahu is associated with a Maraka graha

• the onset of the period of intensive acquisition of food, wealth, and knowledge = 18 yrs for the major period and varying lengths for each bhukti and pratyantardasha era.

• It may be punctuated by deaths or severe loss from sensual saturation. There is often a sudden disruption in the family of origin, even a cutting of family ties. (There may be later reconciliation during a later period of Ketu the Non-judger.

• For example, the author JK Rowling during onset of Rahu period lost her mother and became alienated from her father, who took up very quickly with a woman suspected of being his amour during the mother's fatal illness. A death or abrupt separation from family lineage can serve as the 'opening bell' of this mahadasha.

• The initial onset of wealth crisis can be self-inflicted due to Rahu's restless discontent to get moving toward the higher privileges, although typically at the time of Rahu + Maraka loss of previously rich or family-bound conditions, the native blames 'circumstances beyond our control'. There is often a bout of poverty at the early beginning of Rahu periods.

• However psychically it is the native 's ambition to catapult oneself into the higher powered realm which eradicates previous historical values to make way for valuable new knowledgeand a new trajectory toward the top levels of social recognition.

Rahu brings important new actors into the life scene, and these actors are typically from a different cultural background. the native is invested into the culture of the new actors, and may be asked to accept a knowledge base and a set of values which is quite different from the value set with which one was raised.

Although it involves a great deal of elaborate re-valuation,particularly in the definition of family and kinship relations, one needs to acquire or remember elements of the new actors worldview in order for the native to make the leapinto one's next life phase.

Trajectory via Media Communications, Conversation, and Planning

Mahadasha of Rahu and most bhukti of Rahu (depending on Rahu's angle to the mahadasha pati) will exhibit the script qualities of Mithuna.

Rahu's Great Leap Forward is chatty and conversational. The typical starting scene is a written or filmed document, such as a movie, book, plan, article, charter or constitution, television or radio announcement, report, photograph, etc.

The Rahu experience begins with some variety of communicative message by writing, sound, or photographic image (according to the bhava) whichgive publicity to the native either physically, psychologically, or spiritually.

An enunciation of evangelism is required. The environment supports publishing and narrative-development behaviors. The important actors typically hold rank of broadcast media producer, publications director, advertising or marketing specialist, etc.

Narrative from inside, instruction from outside

the native might engage in self-explanatory behavior driven by asudden, obsessive attraction to an unusual source of publicity. The elaboration of the scope of the social personality or the body might start (or seem to start) from completely external circumstances, such as getting a job in the film or photography industry, publishing one's book or article, or getting a college degree in journalism. One might start the cycle with a desire to promote one's own image, one's own worldview, and one's own personal story.

Rahu Mithuna is not so much a desire to get famous (that is Simha/5) but rather a desire to stay in the conversation, to have trajectory-speed control over what other people think.

The longer the Rahu period, the more opportunity for dramatic development. After the initial image-or narrative promotion event, there is continuous development of the media package. If Rahu is associated with a Maraka graha, the craving for sale, marketing, and advertising may be punctuated by deaths or severe loss such as divorce. The death or tragic separation can be self-inflicted due to Rahu's restless discontent and desire for quick acquisition of higher privilege.

Rahu brings important new actors into the life scene, and these actors are typically from a different cultural background. the native is published into the culture of the new actor, and may be asked to make frequent reports and announcements, so that the public conversation about the native 's enunciated narrative can continue. One needs to acquire or remember elements of this new actor's worldview in order for the native to make the leapinto one's next life phase.

• The typical starting scene involves parenting, schooling, and protective duties, such as military defense or land-care stewardship.

The Rahu experience begins with patriotic or parental instinct (according to the bhava) whichgrounds and stabilizes the native within one's home culture either physically, psychologically, or spiritually.

An enunciation of the art of laying foundations is required. The environment supports every type of "roots" activity such as teaching of customary manners, provision of homes and sheltered space, dealing with vehicles. The important actors typically hold rank of parent or grandparent, parochial authority, school-master, examiner, or licensor.

Foundation from inside, protection from outside

• the native might engage in defensive behavior driven by asudden, obsessive attraction to anunusual type of security. Everyone in this Rahu-Karkata environment is involved in placing and guarding the "roots" of an ethnic culture, deep in the ecology of the land.

• The rooting and attachment of the social personality or the body might start (or seem to start) from completely external circumstances, such as parenting, acquiring a home or completing education in the customs of one's people. One might start the cycle with a desire to feel more secure .

• Also one may accept the role of pre-eminent female (Chandra) in a family, accepting the central role of Mother (Soma) in exotic circumstances, such as becoming the caretaker (Karkata) of a children lacking a mother. The female native with Rahu-Karkata often finds that motherhood has some taboo-breaking attributes, both in regard to her childhood experience of women who are mothers and the native 's own mothering trajectory.

• For example, one may be effectively raised by female house servants and nurses rather than by the titular but absent mother. Or one may allow servants (usually exotic) or relatives to raise one's own children.

Circling the Wagons

• The longer the Rahu period, the more opportunity for dramatic development. After embarking upon quest to obtain better emotional and material security, there is continuous development of the instinct to protect against invaders. Land ownership and property management feature on this trajectory.

• Rahu in Karkata is an excellent placement for theprofessional land-use expert, national defense, property management, parent-teacher association, wetlands conservationist.

If Rahu is associated with a Maraka graha

• the onset of the period of intensiveself-protection(18 yrs for the major period and varying lengths for each bhukti and pratyantardasha era) may be punctuated by deaths or severe loss from fear of invasion or expulsion from the home.A death or abrupt separation can serve as the 'opening bell' of this mahadasha.

• The initial onset of a crisis caused by anxiety over sovereignty and securitycan be self-inflicted due to Rahu's restless discontent to get moving toward the higher privileges, although typically at the time of Rahu + Maraka loss of previous conditions of stability of ethnic custom, the native blames the nation-stateor 'circumstances beyond our control'.

• However psychically it is the native 's ambition to catapult oneself into the higher powered realm which eradicates previousethnic and national identity to make way for new loyalties and a new trajectory toward the top levels of social recognition.

Rahu brings important new actors into the life scene, and these actors are typically from a different cultural background. the native is networked into the culture of the new actors, and may be asked to accept additional connections, outside the community of one's upbringing.

Although it involves a great deal of targeted effort,one needs to acquire or remember elements of the new actors worldview in order for the native to make the leapinto one's next life phase.

Trajectory via Celebrity, Literary Intelligence, Politics, and Games

• Mahadasha of Rahu and most bhukti of Rahu (depending on Rahu's angle to the mahadasha pati) will exhibit the script qualities of Simha.

• Rahu's disruptive and disorderly behavior is most unwelcome in the center-stage, polished performance realms of Simha.

• Rahu's Great Leap Forward must be supremely confident. The typical starting scene is a political event, a theatrical role, engagement with children and games, or some variety of stage performance.

The Rahu experience begins with center-stage attention (according to the bhava) whichhighlights the native either physically, psychologically, or spiritually.

An enunciation of brilliant genius is required. The environment supports flamboyant, fashionable behaviors, and the important actors typically hold rank of stage director, political advisor, or master of games.

Performance from inside, applause from outside

the native might engage in self-flattering behavior driven by asudden, obsessive attraction to an unusual source ofego-validation.

The centering of the scope of the social personality or the body might start (or seem to start) from completely external circumstances, such as taking a dramatic role in a stage play or attending a celebrity event with royalty.

Also one may accept the role of pre-eminent male (Surya) in a family, accepting the central role of Father (Ravi) in exotic circumstances, such as becoming the romantic lover (Simha) of a women whose children lack a father.

The male native with Rahu-Simha often finds that fatherhood has some taboo-breaking attributes, both in regard to his childhood experience of men who are fathers and the native 's own fathering trajectory.

• One might start the cycle with a desire to get more attention.

The longer the Rahu period, the more opportunity for dramatic development. After the initial urgently-seeking-attention event, there is continuous development of the fashionable, literary, theatrical, performance capabilities.

If Rahu is associated with a Maraka graha, the craving for validationof one's attractiveness and talentmay be punctuated by deaths or severe loss such as divorce. The death or tragic separation can be self-inflicted due to Rahu's restless discontent to keeping catapulting forward to higher levels of privilege.

Rahu brings important new actors into the life scene, and these actors are typically from a different cultural background. the native is coronated into the culture of the new actor, and may be asked to assume a royal role, so that the audience attention remains focused on the center of political power. One needs to acquire or remember elements of this new actor's worldview in order for the native to make the leapinto one's next life phase.

Kanya

labor, ail, and complain

Trajectory via Ministry of Service

Mahadasha of Rahu and most bhukti of Rahu (depending on Rahu's angle to the mahadasha pati) will exhibit the script qualities of Kanya. The typical starting scene is a work task, accusation or litigation, or engagement in a ministry of service.

The Rahu experience begins with acceptance of service work(according to the bhava) whichcauses the native to criticize and complain either physically, psychologically, or spiritually.

• The marginalizing of the social personality or the body might start (or seem to start) from completely external circumstances, such as a engagement in a social services ministry of care for those less fortunate. One might start the cycle with a desire to articulate (Budha) and "solve" the problems of the chronically problematic.

Social Work, Ministries of Service

• The longer the Rahu period, the more opportunity for dramatic development. After embarking upon the ministry of aid to those whose lives are plagued by self-doubt, there is continuous development of the involvement with clinical medicine, usurious finance and debt, conflict management, and crime.

• Rahu in Kanya is an excellent placement for the professional social workerwho can hear the litany of complaint, accusations of disenfranchisement, externally induced poverty, and chronic illness, while maintaining a mood of fascination with lived in a culture of jealousy, suspicion, and fraud. Ministries related to medical conditions, dissolution of the marriage contract, and debt-caused poverty are particularly suitable.

If Rahu is associated with a Maraka graha

• the onset of the period of intensive service(18 yrs for the major period and varying lengths for each bhukti and pratyantardasha era) may be punctuated by deaths or severe loss from disease or social violence. A death or abrupt separation can serve as the 'opening bell' of this mahadasha.

• The initial onset of disease or debt-related crisis can be self-inflicted due to Rahu's restless discontent to get moving toward the higher privileges, although typically at the time of Rahu + Maraka loss of previously balanced conditions of health and wealth, the native blames the criminal elementor 'circumstances beyond our control'. However psychically it is the native 's ambition to catapult oneself into the higher powered realm which eradicates previous service roles to make way for new servitude and a new trajectory toward the top levels of social recognition.

• For example a childless woman with Rahu in 5 may take in the children of socially marginalized others in a Rahu-driven effort to acquire the social privilege of pride in one's children. However Kanya = dissolution of contract, lack of 'standing' in the courts, perpetual labor. This native may be locked into a condition of servitude toward said children and their unbalanced parents, attending to the endless medical and financial needs of those over whom one has no legal claim (12th from 7th).

Rahu brings important new actors into the life scene, and these actors are typically from a different cultural background. the native is employed into the culture of the new actors, and may be asked to accept additional labors, such as writing of medical complaints or social class arguments, or tasks such as housekeeping and cleaning [Martha Stewart] and harvesting of crops.

Although it involves a great deal of targeted effort,one needs to acquire or remember elements of the new actors worldview in order for the native to make the leapinto one's next life phase.

Meena

Trajectory via Privacy, Bridge Travel, Clairsentience, and Dreams

Mahadasha of Rahu and most bhukti of Rahu (depending on Rahu's angle to the mahadasha pati) will exhibit the script qualities of Meena. The purpose of Meena is remembering important wisdom acquired during past lives.

Typical starting scene is a dreamscape, a distant land, a therapeutic enclosure, or a walled setting such as a military or refugee camp, a hospital room, a monastery cell or personal bedroom.

The Rahu experience begins with some variety of imaginative insight (according to the bhava) whichsensitizes the native either physically, psychologically, or spiritually.

An enunciation of divinatory clairsentience is required. The environment supports childlike, reflective, prayerful and enclosed behaviors, and the important actors typically are either quite young or lack the barriers of conventionalized adults, such as meditators, poets, artists, musicians, and others sensitive to the communications of spirits.

Imagination from inside, nightmare from outside

the native might engage in fantasizing behavior driven by asudden, obsessive attraction.The unbounded expansion of the scope of the social personality or the body might start (or seem to start) from completely external circumstances, such as daily private prayer, meditation practice, taking a retreat, or developing a very private bedroom relationship. Conditions include clandestine activities such as smuggling and espionage.

One might start the cycle with a desire to feel the childlike openness to imagery and the grand expanse of the universe, or a desire to reconnect with ancestors long away from their bodies, or those in distant lands who can only communicate via symbolic code (e.g., French-speaking and code-knowing Julia Childwas a US-govt spy working with the French Resistance during WWII).

There may be sudden deployment to distant lands which facilitates recovery of past-life personality components.

The longer the Rahu period, the more opportunity for dramatic development. After the enclosure event, there is continuous engagement with ancestors and the spirit world.

Drugs-Alcohol

The downside of Rahu in Meena = in quest to keep the clairsentient channels open, or conversely to attempt to avoid feeling overwhelmed by excessive psychic traffic, one may abuse mood-altering drugs or alcohol. Hallucinogenic or psychotropic drugs can serve as boundary-breakers to facilitate communications with spirits esp the artistic or musical Muse. Also during these periods children may suddenly be born into the native 's life, quite unexpectedly, as a result of manifestation of ancestor spirits.

If Rahu is associated with a Maraka graha, the craving for direct intuitive apprehension of the meaning of imagesmay be punctuated by deaths or severe loss such as divorce. The death or profound separation can be self-inflicted due to Rahu's restless discontent.

Rahu brings important new actors into the life scene, and these actors are typically from a different cultural background. the native is imagined into the culture of the new actor, and may be asked to divine the presence of beings without bodies, so that a spirit can be guided into the path of materialization.

One needs to acquire or remember elements of this new actor's worldview in order for the native to make the leapinto one's next life phase.
