What will be the fate & future of the New POPE?

New Pope Benedict XVI has been elected on 19th April 2005, 17:50 Local Time at Vatican.

He was born on 16th April 1927, 4:15 MET Marktl (48 N 15 / 12 E 51) Germany.

We will try to understand the impact and the fate of new pope with the help of this data.

He was born when Aquarius ascendant was rising on eastern horizon.Aquarius being a philosophical sign makes him a great teacher, writer and lecturer. He is generous hearted, highly sympathetic, intelligent, posses good memory and capable of dealing with facts. He is reserved and peevish when provoked.

Jupiter is placed in lagna aspected by Rahu from 5th house. Jupiter also has affected by the presence of Venus and Saturn in Kendra's (angular houses) from lagna and as well as from Jupiter itself. Jupiter's placement in lagna makes him a strict religious man who follows his religion with lot of faith and conviction.

Jupiter gives him a magnetic personality. An optimistic spirit, and jovial nature is indicated in his personality.

Self-indulgence especially in regard to gluttony will effect health.

Rahu's aspect over this Jupiter makes him inclined towards occult sciences but a hypocritical super-consciousness towards other religions is also likely to happen.

The health will be generally unsatisfactory. He may likely to go through for treatment other than by medical methods.

Rahu's aspect over lagna makes him appear rather odd and eccentric.

His three planets including lagna lord Saturn are placed in fixed signs make him a fixed, determined and conservative personality.

His ascendant lord Saturn placed in Scorpio in 10th house, the house of achievements and fame exalted him to the highest office in Roman Catholic hierarchy .

As Saturn is retrograde in a deep mystical sign Scorpio, it is very tough for ordinary man to understand his mind and his intentions.

His intentions may be shrouded in mystery and covered with lots of smart wit and intellect.

Look at his first speech after he become Pope

"After the great Pope John Paul II, the Lord Cardinals have elected me, a simple and humble worker in the vineyard of the Lord. I am consoled by the fact that the Lord knows how to act, even with inadequate instruments and above all I entrust myself to your prayers. In the joy of the Risen Lord, trusting in His permanent help, as we go forward the Lord will help us, and His Mother, Mary Most Holy, is on our side Thank you."

You will find conviction, and faith towards his religion in this speech, but you will be surprised to see the words 'simple and humble worker' as he is not a simple and humble man, astrology reveals. A man who has such conviction and determination of Aquarius sign used Jupiter's wisdom and Rahu's hypocrisy to portray himself as a 'simple and humble worker'. This is what Rahu can do to one's personality. If only Jupiter were there in his ascendant without Rahu's aspect he would not be a conservative but traditional and unsympathetic towards other faiths but real upholder of justice and equality and as well as empathy.

I wish to emphasize on his words in millennium peace summit in 2000.

He said the followers of non-Christian religion will not get salvation because they do not consider Jesus Christ to be the only son of God. He also said that there are several shortcomings in non-Catholic religions because they do not consider the Pope to be their leader.

Now you can very well understand the impact of Rahu over his thinking and personality.

Venus is his 4th house in own sign made him a accomplished pianist. Moon in Virgo aspected by Mars and Mercury providing him an analytical and thought-provoking mind with which he may use facts and logic to denounce other's ideas aggressively. He is intelligent and smart and you can not criticize him without going deep into his psyche and ideas .At once he may silence you with his sharp intellect in case you are not prepared with the armory of facts yourself.

Sun in 3rd house makes him a courageous man who is not afraid of taking bold steps. He cares a damn for criticism and opposition. He is a brave man with strong convictions and deliberate will. He is blunt and quite passionate about his kind of truth. Mercury in 2nd house makes him a emotional as well as thought-provoking speaker. he is fluent in many languages owing to good influence of this Mercury.

Ketu in 11th house in the sign of Jupiter makes him somewhat unsympathetic and stubborn with his ideas.

Mars and Rahu in 5th house will not provide him good friends and trusted lieutenants. He may be mistaken by others and may suffer from colic pains. People will find him a hard-hearted man.

Till the age of 28 he had not been passing through the good dasha at all. During World War II he was forced to join the auxiliary anti-aircraft service, but deserted. He was subsequently imprisoned in an Allied POW camp until the end of the war. That time he was passing through the dasha of Saturn in Rahu. Saturn and Rahu making shadashataka (6th/8th) relationship and Saturn also placed in an inimical sign but he survived as Saturn is placed in 10th house.

In Rahu-Ketu he began studies in philosophy and theology at the University of Munich. Look at the Ketu who is posited in the sign of Jupiter the planet of philosophy and Ketu itself a planet for theology. He was ordained as a priest in Rahu-Sun. Sun is exalted and placed 11th from Rahu and 3rd from Ascendant.

As soon as he entered into the dasha of Jupiter he obtained his doctorate in theology. Now his good dasha had been started and he never looked back after that. During Jupiter's dasha from 1953 to 1969 he was into teaching and lecturing quite away from a secret mission to prove Christianity superior to other faiths.

His Saturn dasha began in 1969 and for half of this dasha he was into teaching only. He got two breakthroughs during Saturn dasha, one came in 1969 in Saturn-Saturn when he became a professor of dogmatic theology and of the history of dogma, the second breakthrough came in Saturn-Venus his yogakarka planet and well placed in it's own sign when he was appointed the archbishop of Munich and was also elevated to the post of cardinal during same dasha. During the whole dasha of Saturn he was not very vocal but was preparing himself for his secret mission .Once again look at the Saturn in Scorpio.

Since 1998 he has been passing through the dasha of Mercury maturing as a good speaker and stimulating conversationalist out-witting his opponents. He was elected Vice Dean of the College of Cardinals In Mercury-Rahu and elevated to the post of Dean in Mercury-Jupiter. His secret mission has been realized when he became Pope in Mercury-Saturn for which he was preparing himself from 1972 the phase of Saturn-Mercury.

Soon he is going to enter into the mahadasha of Ketu from November 2005.During this dasha his approach will be uncompromising and unyielding. He will try to execute his ideas with lots of conviction and without being perturbed by the criticism. In that way his reign will be contrary to his predecessor's. He will widely be criticized and opposed for his ideas from inside and outside. Ketu's transition from his moon until September 2006 may spoil his health and a surgery of urinary tract can not complete be ruled out. He will be able to handle technological advancement well as Ketu is well placed in chart and known for it's brilliancy and efficiency.

Let's have look over Sub-periods in Ketu.

Ketu (Nov 2005 -April 2006) --bad for health

Venus (April 2006-June 2007)--OK,known for charitable causes and harmony

Sun (June 2007-Oct 2007)--Good and strong phase, fame is there.

Moon (Oct 2007-May 2008)--Manageable phase but emotional disturbances are there.

Mars (May 2008-Oct 2008)--Bad Phase for health and opposition

Rahu (Oct 2008- Nov 2009)--Bad phase for health and rebellions will dominate.

Jupiter (Nov 2009- Oct 2010)--Mediocre to good.

Saturn (Oct 2010- Nov 2011)--Bad phase as he will be widely criticized.

Mercury (Nov 2011-Nov 2012)--OK phase.

The first half of Ketu dasha will be good except few health problems. The sub-periods of Ketu, Venus, Sun and Moon will be good to average except few health problems. But following sub-periods of Mars and Rahu will disturb him a lot and serious health problems can not be ruled out.

If he passes ketu's second half well only then his reign can be remembered as Venus dasha will be known for charitable causes, but that is highly unlikely in this case.

According to the horoscope at the time when he was elected Pope ,Virgo lagna was rising with retrograde Jupiter and Ketu in it.

This shows that he aggressively and uncompromisingly will execute his ideas will work towards the enforcement of Church doctrine.

He will continue to be against multiculturalism and will regard other religions as deficient.

The nakshatra was Magha and Tithi was Shukla Ekadashi. Nakshatra is not very conducive for election as it is recommended for wars and other hazardous undertaking, but the Tithi is balancing this out as it is recommended for observing vows and other divine festivals.

Health and opponents will disturb him a lot as Saturn being a 6th lord placed in 10th house.

He will make more enemies than his predecessor.

Venus is combust and placed in 8th house and this will make him unsympathetic towards women. He will be stick to his views that ban on women priests is necessary to safeguard doctrine. Even on homo-sexuality and gay marriages he will stick to his earlier stand owing to 8th house Venus.

Will Bollywood King Shahrukh Khan ever win an OSCAR?-

Shahrukh Khan is the undisputed king of Bollywood. In last 15 years he has been reigning there with much more hit films than anyone else in this film industry. Let's examine what astrology has to say about him and also try to find out an answer whether he may bring an Oscar for India or not?

Shahrukh was born when Leo ascendant was rising. Ascendant Lord Sun is placed in 3rd house, the house of courage, makes him a courageous man who can take risks and can do a tons of hard work. His moon sign is Capricorn also helps him in this. This position of Sun is one of the strongest position in his horoscope as Sun gets his neech bhang yoga with the support of Mars. Whatever he has achieved so far has come from this position of Sun.

Another highlight of his horoscope is the presence of four malefic planets in three angular houses(kendras) other than the ascendant.

Mars, Saturn, Rahu and Ketu all are placed in his Kendra houses. Mars being a yogkaraka for him and Saturn being a Kendra lord and hence ceased to be malefic and apart from this both Rahu and Ketu are exalted in his horoscope make him a undisputed king of Bollywood. He is blessed with all four qualities of a king Saam, Daam, Danda, and Bheda. In prima facie his horoscope looks to be an ordinary one but a careful look will lead you to a horoscope which is blessed with many rajyogas.

Let's have a look on few rajyogas present in his horoscope.

Musala Yoga :-When lagna is in a fixed sign and several planets also in fixed signs, than the effect of this yoga can be felt.

This yoga makes him proud, learned, wealthy, liked by ruler, famous, of stable nature and blessed with good children. He is trustworthy, has stability and durability, is fixed and determined. However he might be obstinate, and unable to take quick decisions and might have difficulty in adapting to change.

Ruchaka Yoga:-When Mars in a Kendra, exalted or in own sign.

This yoga makes him prominent, bold and courageous, full of strength and vigour, and eager to pursue adventurous activities wherefrom name and fame is gained. He is , of royal bearing and ever intent on combat and annihilator of opponents. This yoga helped him a lot to climb the top of the ladder.

These two yogas are a drop in the ocean. There are several others like Shasha Yoga, Durdhara, Veshi, Amala, Parvata, neech-bhanga rajyoga and so on..

Here I wish to add few notes on Rahu, who is exalted and placed in 10th house of name and fame. The credit for lots of achievements he has made in life goes to Rahu. Let me quote the great Dr. B V Raman on Rahu in 10th house.

" There is a tendency to lusts after widows. He will be skilled artist with a flair of poetry and literature. He travels widely and is learned. He will be famous and will engage in business. He will have limited issues. Bold and somewhat adventurous he commits many sins."

I would not like to comment on this quote and leave everything for you to interpret the meaning yourself.

He got his big break in Bollywood when he was passing through the antardasha of MARS his yogkaraka planet and the mahadasha of this same planet Rahu. Soon after he entered into the 16 year mahadasha of Jupiter and getting everything from him name, fame, wealth and honour , absolutely everything one desires for.

After 15 years in Bollywood he is again on the verge of same breakthrough he got 15 years ago, as he has been going to pass through the antardasha of Mars and Rahu in the mahadasha of Jupiter. Mars in Jupiter is running since Nov 2004 and Rahu is approaching fast and will be started from OCT 2005.This dasha will be running for 2 years and 5 months. Before going further I wish to emphasize here that in the next dasha of Saturn I don't expect much as Saturn also has his share of problems he has to face. But Jupiter is not going to end without a bang.

Though Rahu is placed 12th from Jupiter hence may give him few health and home problems but being in 10th from Lagna he is entitled to hog the limelight once again in his career. He is on verge of his second breakthrough, be it in politics or in international fame like getting Oscar to India. He is quite capable of both and in atleast one he will attract limelight, but wherever he goes he will remain a king, that is for sure. I am clearly foreseeing international fame in next few years for Shah Rukh Khan. We wish him good luck for future.!

Kashmir, Ceasefire,and Repurcussions

Hearunder we are analysing the future of Prime minister's declaration of ceasefire in Jammu and Kashmir during the holy month of Ramazan. Prime-minister declares this ceasefire on 19th November, the day of Sunday, when the nakshatra was Magha and the tithi was Krishna Paksha Navami. The nakshatra Magha doesn't promote peace making activities, rather it is very conducive for wars and other hazardous undertakings.

The navami tithi is also good for debating,competing ,excersing,gambling and for taking other risks. Our vedic seers insight into Muhurta or electional astrology only declares the failure of this cease-fire.

Let's have a look into Kashmir history after independence.Maharaja Hari Singh signed instruments of accession with indian government on 26th October 1947.The ruling sign of Kashmir Libra was heavily afflicted by debilitated Sun,Mars, Saturn and retrograde Mercury. Signing the important papers during the retrogression of Mercury is never considered to be a good idea. Mercury became retrograde on 25th October 1947 and Maharaja Hari Singh signed the paper on 26th, the next day and subsequently it triggered major problems between both the countries India and Pakistan.

If we consider 26th October 1947, the day when Kashmir was included in Indian territory, we may have clear insight about Kashmir problem.Moon is posited in Aquarius. Ninth and sixth houses are heavily afflicted not showing any sign of peace.There is an exchange between Saturn and Moon, quite indicative of depressive scene.

According to Kurma-chakra Kashmir is ruled by Purva-Bhadrapada Nakshatra which is under vedh of Mars nowadays. This again increasing danger for Kashmir. We should be alert at our borders. The transit of Mars through the Libra (Between 13th December to 2nd February), which is the ruling sign of Kashmir again a bell of danger. It would be impossible task to maintain peace in the valley. As we know that in Mundane astrology Mars is considered to be a violent planet and triggers wars, natural calamities and bloodsheds etc. specifically when it is afflicted by Saturn and Rahu. The same is the story here, as Mars is going to make a shadashtaka yoga (6/8 inimical relationship) with Saturn during his stay in Libra. Every indication is negative for peace as far as mundane astrology is concerned. So we should keep our fingers crossed and pray for the peace in the valley.May god listen to peacekeepers.

Ayodhya,Ram Janma Bhoomi and Controversy

Ayodhya is in the news once again. On 6th of December 2000 Prime minister Atal Behari Vajpayee made a statement on Ram Mandir Movement that created controversy and since then opposition has halted the proceedings of Parliament . All these events conincide with the eigth anniversary of demolition of Babri Masjid.One question arises why all this is happening after a long gap of 8 years. Though Prime minister's statement seems to be a well timed move but there was an inherent problem in it. The statement appeared on Wednesday, 6th December, in Uttra-bhadrapada nakshtra on Shukla Paksha Dashmi. This is a quite good day for making such statements but unfortunately the yoga was Vyatipata which is considered to be a bad and unfortunate yoga.

We will have to go back into history for knowing more about this controversy. There are few major events which should be listed here.

22/12/1949 : Installation of Lord's Idols in the Mosque

23/12/1949 : Three men arreted by police in connection with this case.

26/12/1949 : The then City Magistrate Gurudutt Singh confiscated the disputed site.

01/02/1986 : The locks of Rama Temple were opened

09/11/1989 : The ceremony of Shilanyas

25/09/1991 : L.K.Advani started his Rathyatra.

23/10/1990 : L.K.Advani was arrested in Bihar.

02/11/1990 : Many Kar-sewaks died in police-firing at disputed site.

21/11/1991 : V.H.P started symbolic Karsewa.

09/07/1992 : Construction started at the site.

06/12/1992 : Demolition of Masjid.

06/12/1992 : Reinstallation of Idols and temporary structure of temple started to be constructed in the night.

For astrological purpose we have to analyse few of these dates. The installation of Lord's idols were a planned move as the day suggests. It was done in Shravana , a very good nakshatra for installation the idols. Unfortunately the tithi was Chaturthi and the yoga was Vyaghaat which are not considered to be a good muhurta for auspicious activities. The time was also not chosen rightly as perhaps this was the reason that the idols were in custody for almost 36 years. Let's have a look over the horoscope of that time when the idols were installed. We will use this horoscope as the birth of Lord Rama's temple at Ram Janmabhoomi.

Virgo ascendant was rising at the time when idols were installed. Virgo has Mars and Ketu, both violent planets positioned in it. The fourth house has Sun and Mercury, the fifth house has debilitated Jupiter,Venus, and Moon, the seventh house has Rahu and the twelfth house has Saturn positioned in it . At the time of installation the vimshottari dasha of Moon was operating.

Moon Dasha :( 1949 to 1955 ) : The good thing happened in this dasha was the order of civil court of Ayodhya for continuing the daily Pooja at the distputed site.

Mars Dasha : (1955 to 1962) : Mars was badly placed in lagna and being a 3rd and 8th lord it was instrumental of worsening the situation as in 1961 Sunni Central Wokf Borad also jumped into the litigation. Situation was under control as this Mars had aspect of Jupiter

Rahu Dasha : ( 1962 to 1980 ) There was no solution of the problem at all.

Jupiter Dasha : ( 1980 to 1996) This has been a happening period as this Jupiter made the BJP a household name.With the sympathy wave of Ram Mandir BJP reached to it's zenith and eventually acquired power at centre in 1998. In 1984 there was the first meeting of Dharmasansad. On 1/2/1986 court orderd to open the locks of Ram Janambhoomi. This was only possible because of benefic Jupiter as this Jupiter was placed in the fifth house with Yogkarka Venus and Moon. The dasha was running Jupiter-Mercury which was instrumental in opening the locks of Janmabhoomi. On 09/11/1989 when Jupiter-Venus was in progress VHP had been succesful in doing the Shilanyas ceremony. BJP used this dasha for broadening it's base in masses by playing with the emotional sentiments of hindus. L.K.Advani went for his countywide Rathytra during this period and was arrested in Bihar on 23/10/1990. Many Karsewakas died in police firing in Ayodhya on 02/11/1990. All these events happened in Jupiter-Venus. In Jupiter-Sun on 24/6/1991 Kalyan Singh became the chief minister of UP. On 06/02/1992 when Jupiter-Moon was in progress Mosque was demolished and There was made a temporary structure of Mandir. We have to throw more light on that day's muhurta.

06/02/1992 : The day was Sunday, the tithi was Shukla Paksha Dwadashi and the nakshatra was Ashwini. Everything was right and well planned except what had had to happened. The problem was that the Jupiter-Mars dasha was about to start 07/12/1992 onwards. The whole country was under communal clashes and this all was destined as we can easily make out from the horoscope of the day when the idols were installed in 1949.

What is stored in future ? : Jupiter has done a lot for Ram Janmabhoomi and all that can not be changed, hence it is sure the temporary structure which is stood there is quite safe. But the full structure is still far off atleast for two more years to come, and till then Ayodhya and the whole country yet to face few bad moments. According to Kurma-Chakra Ayodhya comes under Purva-Phalguni nakshatra and whenever this nakshatra comes under severe vedha of Saturn,Mars or Rahu unrest clashes and chaos would have have to happen. In the months of January-February when Saturn will be transiting through Krittika and Mars will be transiting through Vishakha, Ayodhya will be in the news again.

Gulf War and Beyond.........

America attacked Iraq with the sole purpose of destroying Saddam.Bush Junior is adamant to achieve what his father could not.Whether he will be succeeded or not, analyzed here astrologically.

In the early hours when Aquarius ascendant was rising at Baghdad , Bush ordered to eliminate Saddam. Soon thereafter Allies countries started to hurl Tomahawk Cruise missiles towards Iraq.

Aquarius rising is not a good omen for Iraq as it is the 8^th house from Iraq’s ascendant which happens to be the Cancer.The attacker Bush and Company is represented by Saturn the Ascendant as well as 12^th lord, whereas Saddam is represented by Sun the 7^th lord.Interestingly both these planets are well placed in the chart. Saturn by his position in the kendra in the friendly sign with his friend Rahu, while Sun is aspected by Jupiter and placed in jupiterian sign too.Thanks to Jupiter Saddam is receiving so much support worldwide.

War is going to end within two to four weeks, as Sun is placed next to Ascendant and Saturn in the 4^th house, and both are strong. For the outcome of war 7^th,11^th and 14^th April are important dates. Saturn’s transit into Gemini on 7^th is most crucial one as he will aspect both Sun and Mars from there.US and allied forces may catch hold of Saddam before 11^th of April.But with his Luck and the famous double he may survive as on 11^th April he may leave his country and may get political asylum in a friendly country.Why after 11^th ? Because Mars is going out into Capricorn in the 12^th house, being exalted and aspected by an exalted Jupiter He will be safe wherever he may be. The remaining work will be completed by Sun moving into Aries and the safety of Saddam will be asertained.The only question is to survive between 7^th and 11^th of April.The one thing is sure Bush and Company may destroy Iraq but can not destroy the spirit and soul of a brave soldier.

Let’s have a look into Iraq’s horoscope.Iraq has Cancer rising and been passing through the sub period of Mercury in the major period of Saturn till May 2004. Saturn and Mercury both are aspected by his fierce enemy Mars from the 10^th house, indicating the humiliation of otherwise brave country.Mercury, indicating economy and Saturn indicating it’s rich heritage, both are going to fell into dire state.

Let’s have a look over US horoscope as well.Right now US is passing through the sub-period of Jupiter in the major period of Moon.Moon and Jupiter both are well placed to each other making one successful in one’s ventures.This phase ends in June and the sub-period of Saturn starts thereafter.Both Moon and Saturn are badly placed from each other.They are making Shadashtaka relationship.This phase is devoid of happiness and indicating lots of internal as well as external fights and dangers.US may drag itself into a big warlike situation which may get out of control.

May God give wisdom to Bush and Saddam and save Iraq from destruction.

Amitabh Bachchan : Unlocking the Puzzle

Amitabh Bachchan, BBC's Star of the millennium,and the Megastar of indian cinema is like a puzzle for budding astrologers.

His horoscope is quite complicated for a layman.We start to unlock this puzzle with his recent illness.
He was in Lucknow on the occasion of his father late Dr. Harivansh Rai Bachchan's jayanti celebration on 27th of November 2005.
The very next day he had to admit in the Escorts hospital in Delhi for the complaints of abdominal pain.
The day was Monday,nakshatra was Chitra and the Moon was passing through his natal Moon in Libra.
Nakshatra caught my attention as it was the nakshatra of Mars,who incidentally was retrograde and passing through the 7th house of his Moon.
Chitra is considered to be a good nakshatra as far as remedies and doing things to improve one's health is concerned.
Amitabh was lucky to be admitted in Chitra nakshatra.Let's have a look at the horoscope when he was admitted in Lilavati hospital in Bombay.

Cancer Ascendant was rising at the time with retrograde Saturn placed in it.It was aspected by Mars and Rahu there in lagna.
This was not a good situation at all and was clearly showing the surgery.There was another indication of changing the doctors or the method of
medication, which incidentally may be materialized in future, and Mr. Bachchan may have to seek further diagnosis somewhere else in the months to come.

Look at the horoscope of Amitabh Bachchan.He was born on 11th October 1942, at 3.51 P.M. at Allahabad.
Aquarius ascendant was rising with vargottama navamasha at the time with Ketu placed in lagna itself.
Saturn being the lagna lord is strongly placed in 4th house in friendly sign Taurus without being aspected by malefics or benefics.
Right now Mr. Bachchan is passing through the dasha of Mercury which is nearing at it's end.Saturn's sub-period in Mercury is currently running.

One thing which caught my attention is Ketu's transit through the 8th house where his Sun,Venus,Mars and mahadasha lord Mercury are placed..
Ketu from there was also aspecting antardasha lord Saturn and Pratyantar dasha lord Venus. Even a layman can understand the gravity
of the situation which the eminent doctors at Escorts failed to see or comprehend.They just described it a normal stomach pain.Nobody knows whether
the doctors came to know everything and was hiding it from media so that rumours could be stopped to spread.Who really knows ?

The 8th house is the house of chronic diseases which suddenly come to surface.
As far as my knowledge of medical astrology goes , it seems to be a malignant kind of thing, a very muck like a cancerous growth in his stomach.
I consider this illness no less then the accident in 1982.I give you the reason behind this.At the time of that fatal accident Amitabh was passing through the antar-dasha of Moon in the mahadasha of Saturn.Both his Saturn and Mars were passing through the same house the 8th house,and the same nakshatra, the Hasta from where Ketu is passing through right now.Moon is his 6th lord, the planet of accident and illness and was making the shadashataka (6th\8th) relationship with mahadasha lord Saturn.Jupiter was passing through the natal Mon at both time and that saved Mr. Bachchan from death like situation.

Now as Mr. Bachchan has been operated upon, our task is to find out what will be in store as far as his health in future is concerned.

Ketu has still been transiting through that place until October end in 2006.Another major surgery can not be ruled out and I suspect that Mr. Bachchan
is anywhere around fit for his shooting schedule.He has to cut down the pace and amount of his work.

Another thing is the wrong time chosen for his discharge from the hospital.I am sure no vedic scholar would have advised this time as a good muhurta.
As per the media reports, this muhurta was chosen as per the advice of some numerologist.
Look at the blunder he made.

I understand that one can not choose the time and date of admission in the hospital, but you may very well choose the time and date of discharge from the hospital.

At the time of discharging Aquarius ascendant was rising,which happens to be the ascendant of Mr. Bachchan also.This is very bad muhurta to choose.
The nakshatra was Ardra and the day was Saturday and these are not considered good as far as recovery from an illness is concerned.
The ascendant lord Saturn was placed in 6th house, may be considered good but what about the aspect of Mars and Rahu over Saturn there in the 6th house.

Is this not the indication of another surgery?.The retrogression of Venus the pratyantar dasha lord on 24th of December, may be the cause of surfacing few complications in the process of recovery.Further the transit of Mars over the Saturn in the months of Feb and March may catapult the need of another surgery.

The power of blessings and good wishes is really incomprehensible for a finite mind.It was always a amazing thing for me, why the whole nation
praying for him to recover from his illness.Can one understand or comprehend the power behind these blessings and good wishes ?
He was miraculously saved once in 1982 and now also he will be saved from this chronic illness just because more then 100 carore people are behind him.
He is truly blessed a person and I ,in my entire life, with my whole experience in astrology hardly count this kind of blessed persons on my fingers.

We now intend to unlock the puzzle further and analyze Amitabh's chart in full details.

As we know that he was born when Aquarius lagna was rising with vargottama navamsha.

His rahu or moon sign is Libra.Both his rashi and lagna are airy signs and Ketu's placement in lagna in an airy saturnine sign gave him an unusual height of 6.3'.
Aquarius is a philosophical sign and gives birth to the personality whose sufferings and difficulties are extremely karmic and aimed at teaching powerful lessons.


8th house is considered to be a mystical sign in a horoscope.It preserves very deep meanings in itself.It can produce genius in certain circumstances.
On one hand it can represent severe chronic diseases or injuries leading to death, and the other hand it can produce miracles to save the life from the clutches of death.That is the mysticism behind this house.This house is the deep and sleep ocean and if in any case it gets activated it can produces miracles.
Amitabh's life is no less then a miracle if you wish to understand why the entire nation loves him.

Amitabh has as many as 4 planets in it.It is one of the most activated house of his horoscope.He has Sun,Venus,Mars and Mercury there.
Sun being his 7th lord ceases to be malefic,Venus is his yogakaraka planet and his 9th lord acts as most benefic planet for him.Mercury is the 8th lord
itself and Mars being his 10th lord also ceases to be malefic.Here in this house happening is the churning of the ocean.Obviously there will be posion there but at last there will be nector too.Amitabh got his chronic diseases and injuries as the posion and his ever lasting charisma,his super stardom and last but not the least the well-wishes of the entire nation as nector.As an astrologer I stopped to be amazed here after analyzing his 8th house.

Hereunder are given few other details about him.

Son of a famous,poet :-

Fantastic Career:-

We have already discussed the miracles of his 8^th house.His 10^th lord is placed in the same 8^th house in the hasta nakshatra.Sun is the deity of this Hasta nakshatra and it is believed that in nobler circumstances this nakshatra can produce magicians and as far as his profession is concerned Amitabh is no less than a magician.In his dasamsha chart Jupiter placed in his 10^th house in Pisces in it's own sign giving him immense popularity and respect.10^th lord Mars association with Yogakaraka Venus gave him a successful film career.

Famous friends and famous Son:-

Amitabh is blessed with friends as well as a famous son.His 5^th house is quite strong in that sense.5^th house is the house of friends,children and the blessings of previous births.Significator of children Jupiter as well as 5^th lord Mercury both are exalted and Mercury is associated with Sun in almost all divisional charts showing that he will blessed with famous and powerful friends as well as famous and popular son.

We will go through his entire life story as per vimshottari dasha system.

Rahu Mahadasha (From birth to 12-04-1955):-

It was the time for childhood of masti and enjoyment.He attended Boys highschool in Allahabad during this phase and was quite good at studies.
Oahu's placement in 7th house in oleo is goody's renowned ,disciplinarian but understanding father was the highlight of this period.

Jupiter Mahadasha ( Till 12-04-1971):-

As Jupiter is exalted and aspecting the 2nd house of education,which happens to be it's own house,Amitabh acquired good education in this phase.He went to Sherwood College in Nainital and later joined Delhi's Kirorimal College for earning his Double M.A. Degree in arts.This was the best time for his father too.
His father was close to the then Prime minister Jawahar Lal Nehru and was appointed the Hindi Advisor to the Government of India after returning from Cambridge University in England. His father Dr.Harivansh Rai Bachchan was the first Indian to earn a Ph.D. in English from Cambridge.
During Jupiter-Saturn dasha family shifted to Delhi from Allahabad.Amitabh got Rajiv and Sanjay as his close pals during this dasha.He enjoyed this part of his life very much. In the later part of Jupiter dasha the going was bit tough.He went to Calcutta for work.Worked as a freight broker for a firm for some time and later joined Shaw Wallace.He was also involved with theater at that time in Calcutta.

His dream to work in films took him Bombay from Calcutta.He struggled in the Jupiter-Moon and Jupiter-Mars but got his first break in K.A.Abbas's "Saat Hindustani" in the year 1969 when his Rahu antar dasha in Jupiter was running.Still the days of struggle were not over and he had to wait for his most beneficial dasha of Saturn to start.

Saturn Mahadasha (Till 12-04-1990):-

The real story begins from here.Saturn is his lagna lord and being yogakaraka from his Libra(Tula) rashi and also strongly placed in 4th house in kendra in friendly sign in Taurus in the nakshatra of Moon,Rohini.The nakshatra dispositor Moon's placement in the 9th house helped him a lot.His success story in bollywood tells it all.His super stardom,his long innings in the film industry all falls within the grace of Saturn.During the first half of Saturn dasha his most of the films were mega hits.
Zanzeer (1973) came when he was running Saturn-Saturn and and he never looked back after that.We have no intention to analyze his filmi career here.Everybody knows it better then us.

We should not forget the 12^th lordship of Saturn here.The second part of Saturn had not been passing not without it's share of adversities Saturn-Moon he met with that fatal accident but fortunately survived and in a way reborn again.Look at the 6^th/8^th position of Saturn and Moon and the facts that he was passing through the sade-sati at that time.In Saturn-Mars he entered in politics in support of his close friend Rajiv Gandhi but soon realized that he was not cut out for politics.He resigned in Saturn-Rahu after being named in Bofors Scandal before even finishing his term.He has very bitter experiences during that time and termed his entering into politics a big mistake.We can blame his sade-sati and 12^th lordship for all this.His sade-sati finished in December 1987 and he had a sigh of relief after that.


Mercury Mahadasha(Till 12-04-2007):-

Being placed in 8th house of surprises Mercury threw many surprises infront of Amitabh.The first half was full of ambitious plans but failed him miserably.
His losses in business and average or below average films,his failed business prepositions are all came during first half of this dasha.He was under heavy debts.
His relations with Gandhi family further deteriorated in this phase.

The second half was quite contrary to the first one and surprisingly he stood from ashes and striked back with KBC.and he never looked back since then..

We have to keep in mind that Mercury is functional benefic for the Aquarius lagna.Being 5^th lord Mercury provided good results while being 8^th lord he gave him debts,chronic diseases and distance from Gandhi Family.During Mercury dasha he became close to Amar Singh and Mulayam Singh Yadav. At first this seems a mismatch and from astrological point of view I consider this friendship as an aberration in Mr. Bachchan's life. As this friendship blossomed in the dasha of retrograde Mercury.

Right now he is under the Saturn antardasha in the Mercury mahadasha.This is the fag end of the mahadasha of Mercury.This is called chhidra dasha also and may cause serious damages to life.His whole 64^th year seems to be tough to his life but he will be survived this year and I have no doubt about that.

Future Predictions:-

Amitabh has to pass the 7 years of Ketu mahadasha after completing this Mercury mahadasha in April 2007.Ketu will repeat the events which Saturn has already given as well indicated.His fame will be intact but not the health.In case he passes whole of the Ketu dasha his fame and popularity will touch new frontiers.Ketu is known as “Shikhi”or Peak and that he is certainly going to achieve in coming Ketu dasha.
