Q:

"I am going to try to go back to school this year, I am going to take Phlebotomy class in Aug. meanwhile I am checking to see about CNA classes before that and also trying to get my massage license in [new state]. 

since I do not have a massage license in [new state], I can not do my healing work here, without a license that says I can touch people while I work. 

I have not been working much for a few years, my health is getting a lot better.  

and [my psychic healing lineage] .... I just have not connected with them for a long time, although [occasionally] .... I do work healing work with some of the people there to make some money. Now that [] the person that was in charge of setting the sessions up for me [has moved internationally] 

I really have not been working. and I am not sure what to do to make money and make myself independent. 

[marital tension] ... about money and such...... [lack resources to buy] everything I need. That is why I need to get a job and get independent, but I am unwilling to work for [extremely low local pay scale for unskilled female labor] .... 

so that's why again trying to go to school. but since I have not gone to college  for any courses, anything I want to get into will take a very long time, I have to take all the college require courses first before, like math, chemistry, biology, English etc....so I feel a bit stuck....."

A:

It is natural that she would now desire a new identity which does not depend so much on the marriage

• Period of the lagnesha, Budha/Shani - Jan-2007 until Sep-2009 

• End of an era: Native is closing out a 17-year Budha period which started at her age 30!

• gochara Rahu-Ketu cross *both* D-1 and D-9 lagna (Kumbha/Simha)

• gochara Shani crossing the marriage/partner-agreement house (marital tension)

Lagnesha Shani/12 wants to build up a new identity through a period of sustained study:

• physical strength and endurance for study

• conducting research, 

• spending much time in enclosures such as libraries & laboratories, 

• working in hospitals, convalescent homes, any type of healing sanctuary, monastery or ashrama (but importantly these should be residential enclosures, not walk-in clinics)

• social marginalization or loss of adult identity though being a student, 

• personal discipline

• financial austerity

• Forewarning: studying is long, slow, hard work. Because Shani also dominates Ketu/12, the student-acharya period may well continue into the Ketu Mahadasha (years = 2009-2016).

Re: Phlebotomy:

• uccha Kuja = Blood and Steel needles; 

• Kumbha graha = circulatory systems of the physical, astral & all other bodies

• anything dealing with body energy circulation brings this native wealth (Shukra/Guru/Surya-Kumbha)

• sustaining income through practice of phlebotomy = favorable

Re: re-licensing in the new state:

• Shani gives (reluctant) accommodation to the rules of government

• massage relicensing during Budha/Shani - Jan-2007 until Sep-2009 = favorable

Prognosis for full financial independence:

• Budha/Shani period, Jan-2007 until Sep-2009, will not yield full financial independence, but will accomplish the first steps toward that goal

Marital harmony

• a combination of factors may challenge the ease of marriage:

  • Shani bhukti, Jan-2007 until Sep-2009 

  • gochara Rahu-Ketu crossing *both* the radix *and* navamsha lagnas

  • transit of Shani through the marriage bhava, July-2007 until Sep-2009

result  = 

• frustration with the frugality, emotional limitations, and other rigid behaviors of the spouse

• need for a new personal identity

---

Overview:

The native is a bright, explicitly clairvoyant & clairaudient mother of four, with extraordinary talent in all areas of physical & intuitive culture. 

She is a profoundly gifted hands-on healer. 

The physical body is petite, attractive, & athletic. This body is capable of channeling a great deal of psychic & kinetic energy. When not injured, the native is blessed with remarkable strength and grace of movement. She enjoys physical performance arts such as dance competitions.

The native's career has spanned fashion modeling, musicianship, professional dance, motherhood, psychic healing and counseling, clairvoyant support for criminal investigations, traditional and innovative Chinese medicine, licensed massage therapy, licensed hair styling and cosmetology, and licensed exercise physiology training. 

Native has received numerous specialized diplomas and professional trainings, but she lacks a conventional college diploma.

The professional identity is relatively weak, due to Shani's withdrawal into domain-12, and the absence of Shani's rulership on the primary career lagnas (see career graha evaluation at bottom of page).

---

Prominent graha:

• strongest *wealth generator* = L-2/L-11 Guru, in lagna. 

  Income from direct use of the physical appearance, such as fashion modeling, will be good.

• swakshetra Shani in domain-12 gives a deep frustration with social conformity and a tendency to reject conventional social identities, making career development highly complex and difficult to achieve

  • Shani dominates every mahadasha of this native's life from age 11 until age 80! 

  • Heavy duties, strong resistance to conformity, & abundant social criticism as well as much structured innovation and disciplined artistic output. 

• Yogakaraka L-4/L-9 Shukra in lagna is a very helpful graha. 

  • This native will always benefit from wearing a Vedic Diamond.

• Rahu in domain-6 is a trouble-maker. 

  • Only sustained commitment to Forgiveness will alleviate the sorrow of Rahu's exploitive damage.

---

Predominance of Domain-12 in radix

• The portfolios of grahas which occupy domain-12 are ruled by subconscious imagination  not rational planning. Graha in domain-12 give loss of identity, through shadowy or obscure results. (Raman). 

• material results of these domains are "lost" in the enclosure of psychic imagination:

  • domain-3 (day to day practical business)

  • domain-5 (gambling, children, creative publications)

  • domain-8 (healing transformation, sudden change, divorce)

  • domain-10 (professional career & public status)

  • domain-12 (meditation, sanctuary, ashram enclosures)

• domain-12 represents *criticism* of which the native must face a great deal in this life - how much more so for her innovative, clairvoyant, Kumbha-defined lifestyle

• the abundance of domain-12 grahas indicates a great deal of communication with beings who do not have bodies; thus the native's clairvoyance and clairaudience

---

"Working" graha in lagna & Chandra:

• Shukra, Guru, and Surya in lagna, plus Chandra/9 will give material results

• Shukra & Guru give positive fruit

• L-4/L-9 Shukra is highly beneficial for education, nice residences & vehicles; foreign travel connected with spiritual teachings; and materializing life's maximum good fortune due to charitable acts in past lives

• L-2/L-11 Guru is a wealth generator

• L-7 Surya is less auspicious being in an enemy's rashi. Numerous marriages due to the native's beauty; however, all marriages are ultimately too constricting for her exploratory kinetic spirit. Considerable difficulty in forming clear, rational expectations and agreements with the spouse.

• L-6 Chandra is also inauspicious, giving childhood trauma with the father & father-figures due to taboo-breaking exploitations

---

Vimshottari narrative:

---

• Mahadasha of L-5/L-8 Budha in domain-12

• age 30-47

• Das / Behari say that Budha in domain-12 = expenditure on education 

---

Budha/Budha

• Divorce (L-8), new romance (L-5) and several creative, transformative, taboo-breaking lifestyle changes. 

• professional school for education and licensing in massage therapy. Shift from duties of professional motherhood to independent new lifestyle & healing career.

• (Successfully licensed in her home state. In USA, professional practice education and licensing are often non-transferable between the individual states.)

Budha/Ketu

• Ketu amplifies L-12/lagnesha Lord Shani

• Ketu also gives effect of co-tenant grahas Kuja & Budha

• native prefers to work in self-owned business (uccha Kuja)

• hard-working schedule, deep meditation; intuitive practices very profound but  limited income

Budha/Shukra

• Yogakaraka L-4/L-9 Shukra income derived from variety of beautification & balancing skills including licensed cosmetology (hair styling) practice

• A period of financial health and stability

Budha/Surya 

• L-7 Surya = L-1 navamsha = affianced; financial support from fiancé 

• Professional practice = somewhat sporadic, but satisfying & profitable

Budha/Chandra

• L-6 Chandra has a problematic tenant = troublemaker Rahu

• L-6 in domain-9 of the Father tends to give repeating cycles of exploitation by the father, father-figures such as guru or university professor, spiritual mentors, priests, organized religion, and  

• reproductive health problems, some medical debt

• also spiritual and financial benefits from Chandra in domain-9, income from work with spiritual healing lineage guru & large religious organization

Budha/Kuja

• uccha L-3/L-10 Kuja rules teamwork, training, business administration, public image & leadership roles

• extensive, expensive professional training in a proprietary system of exercise physiology (Budha + uccha Kuja/12 = expenditure on education )

• left her home state and relocated to a new state that would not accept her previous licensing = end of licensed practice

• new licensing in the new skills required subordinate internship that proved unsustainable

Budha/Rahu

• physical & emotional distress,  severe injuries following accidents, major medical debt leads to financial catastrophe

• incompatible & exploitive third marriage (impulsive Rahu in domain-6; Ketu-Rahu on Budha axis) ending in divorce

Budha/Guru

• divorce (L-2) and remarriage

• L-2/L-11 Guru = 2nd-from-mahadasha pati Budha = financially beneficial

• fourth marriage, spousal financial support, slowly improved health

Budha/Shani - Jan-2007 until Sep-2009 (era of the query)

• L-12/lagnesha Shani dominates the nativity 

• final bhukti of 17 years Budha mahadasha, is enforcing Shani's characteristic need for practical survival skills, conformity to the rules of the state,  and dutiful behavior in social relationships. 

• Further Expenditure for Education  

• Good news: L-12 Shani supports research, enclosures such as libraries and laboratories, social marginalization or loss of adult identity though being a student, plus personal discipline and financial austerity

• Bad news: studying is long, slow, hard work which may well continue far into the Ketu Mahadasha.

• Good news: mental discipline needed for long-term studies is available through Shani

Mahadasha of Ketu in domain-12 (2009-2016)

• significant 7-year loss of social identity

• period of deep reflection and research into the psychic & subconscious world

• Ketu period supports long-term studies in a cloistered residential setting such as a monastery or ashram

• deep healing intuitive work with chronically ill persons

• profound realization of a spiritual nature is possible under calm circumstances
