this reading = Almost :) Finished

Compare to other:

• Surya-ruled Uttaraphalguni Chandra

• Kanya Chandra

• Shukra-ruled Purvabhadrapada radical lagna

• Kumbha lagna

Chopra is recognized as a major international teaching authority on integration of the ancient East Indian science of "Ayurveda" with contemporary practices in western allopathic medicine.

• He has significantly expanded the late-20th-century introduction of Ayurvedic medicine into the North American and European alternative health systems.

• Dr. Chopra has also helped rejuvenate (Chandra-8) Ayurvedic medical practice in the western-leaning strata of middle-class professional India.

•  10th navamsha lord Guru = teaching profession + uchchamsha Budha in navamsha lagna = brilliant analysis and effective, detailed explanations

• lagnesha= bhava-6, mark of human services ministry (medicine) in Karkata rashi. Karkata = endocrine system.

Fame: 10th-from-Arudha-lagna and Kala-Sarpa Yoga

• from the Jyotisha perspective, Chopra's fame is a remarkably complex product of:

  • parivartamsha yoga exchanging Shukra-Kuja, bhava-9 and bhava-10

  •  

  10th-from-Arudha-lagna = bhava-11 = Dhanau, unoccupied

• native is well-known due to complex association of Lord of Dhanau = Guruwith L-3+L-10 Kuja(writing, leadership); L-5-L-8 Budha(children, creativity, transformative healing); and L-7 Surya(balance, individual choice).

• Total public impression = "balanced life through balanced life practices"

•  

  Ketu in bhava-10 = Rahu in bhava-4

Karmaa Bhava [10th-from-radix- lagna]

• Vrischika, containing Ketu and Shukra. Important: Shukra has parivartana with His lord Kuja, so we see a highly auspicious yoga of the 9th and 10th houses.

• Vrischika is about secrets and healing. Ketu is med itation and intuition. Shukra is beauty and pleasure. In themselves, this group might give a dynamic career in mystical healing, drawing from ancient tantric traditions, which could range from massage therapy to psychiatry.

• he focus is balance of male and female energies because Shukra occupies Kuja's sign.

L-10 and Aspects to L-10 - public status

L-10 - Kuja, who has plenty of company in dharma bhava. He is yuti Budha, Guru, and fallen Surya.

• Note the extremely auspicious parivartana yoga of Shukra and Kuja who are the 9th and 10th lords! Here is some extraordinary religious and spiritual power.

• his individual does achieve, in his lifetime, successful balance of male and female energies. And he is able due to the prominence of 9th and 10th houses, to bring his balancing knowledge to the public in a persona which combines priestly (house-9) and public-authority (house-10) energy.

• hus, a spiritual practitioner in a credentialed religious lineage, who also carries public respect through his authority as a licensed western physician. This is a powerful and influential leader/guru package.

Lord of 10th Navamsha -and- Lord of the navamsha sign occupied by radix-10

Lord of 10th navamsha is Shani.

• L-10 = Kuja, who rises in navamsha. Lord of navamsha of L-10 is Shukra.

• Therefore Shukra directs the career. Shukra's auspicious parivartamsha yoga with Chopra's L-10 Kuja directs the career powerfully.

• Shukra = karaka for beauty, including rejuvenation.

Mantreswara's Phaladeepikasays that the method of earning a living is determined by the navamsha sign occupied by radix L-10.

In this nativity,

• radix L-10 = Kuja

• Kuja occupies a navamsha of Shukra

Dr. Chopra is certainly possessed of his own poetic talents.

In addition, payment that supports his livelihood comes largely from women, from those interested in luxury, beauty, and pleasure; in royal association, and in living well.

Shukra occupies Vrischika (endocrine system) + Ketu in radix, and Shukra occupies Kanya (fear of unattractiveness) in navamsha. These specialties fund the professional support.

Rahu-4 =

• unpredictable, unusual, or unstable conditions in the early childhood home; parents unpredictable; disrupted or foreign education

10th-from- Chandra - psycho-emotional true profession

• 10th-from-Chandra = Mithuna, unoccupied. Mithuna rules speaking, writing, gesturing - all media of communication. Emotionally, Chopra wants to communicate.

• L-5+L-8 Budha, lord of Mithuna, shares dharma bhava with L-10+L-3 Kuja (media career)+ L-2+L-11 Guru (values, wealth) and fallen L-7 Surya (relationships, advising).

• All this operates through the dharma house, so the context of his service is always religious and spiritual tradition. His persona and his motive are priestly.

L-12 in bhava-6 When L-12 goes into the house of argumentation, conflict, victims and the underclass, then one loses one's ability to negotiate conflicts. There may follow some desperate actions which are perceived to be "options of last resort" in order to "solve the problem" of the impending loss of personal identity, caused (it is perceived) by enemies, by disease, or by debt. Thus the opportunity for unintended criminal consequences of rather confused (12) actions, those actions being ultimately manipulated by the spirits on the astral plane (mainly ancestor spirits) who speak in the dream voice. If L-12 is an aggressive graha, the result could be violent. But generally the result is somewhat diffused. E.g.,

• for Richard Nixon, that graha is Chandra - Nixon had lifelong emotional problems with suspiciousness and feeling victimized, which got the better of him during the Watergate break-in.

• For Krishnamurti, that graha was Guru. The threat to his identity came from a religious group, and he fended off the threat by breaking his promise to lead the group.

• For Deepak Chopra M.D., that graha is Shani in a friendly Rashi. The threat to identity is rigid, herd-mentality convention in the practice of professional medicine. Chopra cast off that threat by breaking through the oppressive limitations of conventional western medicine and introducing Ayurvedic longevity concepts into the western repertory. In his case Shani is extra-strong as lagnesha, so the results while stressful to the native were ultimately beneficial to society.

Surya ; 10th-from-Surya - ego identification

• the ego-intelligence (Ravi) = identified with preaching and the guru role, as it would be for anyone with Ravi in radix-9, in any rashi. Surya in 9 wants to promote a particular tradition and particular way of life, according to their training. Not good for the native's father but paternal behavior is extended to the students and the audience.

• Native is strongly identified with the fatherly role.

• However Ravi is fallen here and not rescued by any helpful conditions. Luckily Ravi is strong in navamsha which helps public dignity.

Yuvati bhava 10th-from-10th - day-to-day interactions, daily reality

Arudha Of Karma Bhava - "Karmaa Pada" - public imagery or associations

LAgnesha - location of life force, natural sphere of action

Dashamsha - D-10 varga for career

temporarily, 10th-from- mahadasha-pati

"an increasing ability to serve is the only reliable sign of spiritual progress"

"And now my friends, all that is true, all that is noble, all that is just and pure, all that is loveable and gracious, whatever is excellent and admirable - fill all your thoughts with these things." ~~ Philippians 4:8
