• L-2 Surya + uchchamsha Rahu in 11 = conjunction within 1 degree

• yogakaraka L-5 + L-10 Mangala in treasuries-2; in rashi of atimitra-graha Surya

• L-11 Shukra in lagna-1

•  uchchamsha Rahu in bhava-11 = elevation to a higher station in life via marketplace profits (Rahu-Vrishabha in 11 = "oil money" = cf. George W. Bush)

• extraordinary fluctuation in finance and marriage: lagnesha neechchamsha Chandra + Rahu, accepts drishti of powerful Lord Kuja

  • example: in one year, from 1989 to 1990, Trump lost more than two thirds of his net worth, from $17 billion in 1989 to $500 million in 1990 (Forbes April 3, 2000).

  • Multiple very large scale bankruptcies, volatile involvement in casino gambling (5, neechcha Chandra-Ketu )

Three generations of deal-making real-estate developing men: grandfather, father, and Trump-3:

• Mr. Trump's father and grandfather were wealthy real estate developers-speculators. Uchcha Rahu + Surya-11 shows the luxuriously high-earning father. The paternal grandfather, who started the business, = 9th from Surya = Makara; the grandson this native = Shani in lagna + great friend and dhanakaraka Shukra. The grandson very much takes after his grandfather with a special trait of making deals (7) = L-7 in lagna + Shukra lord of Surya-Rahu.

Ketu in bhava-5 = Rahu in bhava-11

• Desire (Rahu) to be recognized as an important figure in the marketplace, social connections, economic participation, and interlinked networks

• Ambivalence (Ketu) toward children, politics, creative performance, political power, personal intelligence

  but this ambivalence fluctuates, alternating with emotional involvement due to lagnesha Chandra also in political bhava-5

  Chandra at the exact degree (27) = Ketu.

  • example: in 2011 while gochara Rahu transited Trump's Chandra-Ketu pair in his Surya-Chandra-Rahu-Ketu axis, Trump tried to become a republican-party candidate for USA presidential election of 2012. He appeared preposterous, blustering, and comically ill-informed with low prospects for success, but with millions of dollars to spend on self-promotion he continued to insert himself into the national campaign. Clearly he is involved in politics (5) but the involvement fluctuates (Chandra) with his reactive moods (Jyestha Chandra) and his political rhetoric is scattered (Ketu) to the point of being senseless.

• The public personality, physical appearance, red hair, rubio complexion

• son of the notable wealthy real estate developer Fred Trump (father = Surya + dhanakaraka uchcha Rahu-11)

• specialist in real-estate development and land-purchase deals, esp casino and entertainment properties

• A self-proclaimed "hands-off" father, [lagnesha neechchamsha Chandra + Ketu; Ketu accepts drishti of Kuja]

• flamboyant, wheeler-dealer, risk-loving, boastful, thrice-married, father-of-five

• spouse's notable body-orientation (a competitive ski racer, a fashion model-athlete, and a second fashion model)

• self-declared candidate for 2012 USA presidential election,  withdrew early but continued to promote himself as a debate host and public personality

• loves his television show "The Apprentice" - the show's punchline = "you're fired"

• self-promoting show-boater (Surya + Rahu)

• Mangala drishti to Jyestha Chandra = Chandra-Mangala yoga = material wealth along with emotional volatility

• Donald Trump's brother Fred Trump Jr. died of alcoholism at age 42 after a frustrating series of career failures - presumably struggling to outshine his own father (Rahu + Surya) and failed due to strength of Surya
