Jyotish relation to above event

• Guru or Devguru Brihaspati Graha in simha rashi confirms his  very high level of intelligence , education. Guru drishti to mangal in dhanu rashi , 7^th drishti to surya and Budh in kumbha, and 9^th drishti to shukra in mesha. All these are creating very very powerful combination for his high level of  intellectual traits.
• Guru Drishi from simha  to Budha in Kumbha yuti surya (recognition) …Globally (guru , akash tattva) recognized (surya) speaker (Budh).

In April 2010, he resigned from the position, following allegations that he had misused his office to get shares in the IPL cricket franchise. Tharoor denied the charges and, during his resignation speech in Parliament, called for a full inquiry. In a 2014 rejoinder he defended his position: "I was never involved in a scam of any sort in the IPL- I was brought down because...[I had] antagonized some powerful political cricketing interests" and added that he had "cooperated extensively with the detailed investigation conducted by the Enforcement Directorate into the entire issue", and no wrongdoing had been found.

In September 2009, Tharoor and S M Krishna were accused of staying in luxurious 5-star hotels.Tharoor said it was because of the delay in his official residence being ready and that he spent from only his own pocket for the accommodation. Later on Pranab Mukherjee's request Tharoor and Krishna moved out of the hotels.

In 2014, Tharoor expressed support for Swachh Bharat Abhiyan, a social campaign initiated by Prime Minister Narendra Modi. Following this, the Kerala Pradesh Congress Committee lodged a complaint against him to the Congress high command for his pro Modi stance. Following this, Tharoor was dropped as the official spokesperson of the party

Jyotish context to above event

• Shani drishti to makar ( Throne or career, social standing) . He had to resign (de-throne) because of Scam (rahu) allegations (vrishchika). Shani Drishti to simha (power , authority) affecting his authority & power (simha).
• Swach Bharat abhiyan support costed him his position. Shani (anti clean or dirt) in enemy rashi vrishchika effect.

In 2012 Tharoor was re-inducted into the Union Council of Ministers by Prime Minister Manmohan Singh with the portfolio of minister of state for HRD. In this role he took special interest in the problems and challenges of adult education, distance education and enhancing high-quality research by academic institutions. He was responsible for the ministry's written answers to Parliament's questions and responded to oral questions on education whenever the Lok Sabha's Question Hour was allowed to function. His initiatives on reducing over-regulation in certain areas of education, in promoting values education in schools, and in pushing the ministry to a more liberal interpretation of copyright on educational materials, were appreciated inside and outside the ministry. He addressed forums and conferences on education, explained a vision of India's educational challenges in the context of the country's demographic opportunities, and stressed that education was not only a socioeconomic issue, but also a national security issue.

• Surya (He being minister in Govt) in Purva Bhadra pada nakshatra of Guru (education) in rashi of shani (regulation).
• Purvabhadrapada nakshatra is in Kumbha rashi . Therefore meena (2^nd) and Dhanu rashi (11^th) are both favourable from kumbha rashi from Guru perspective and hence any graha energizing this nakshatra will always focus on higher learning and academic institutions.  Guru drishti from simha to dhanu rashi  confirms his support for education related matterss.

Another controversy involved Gandhi Jayanti when he said people should be working rather than staying at home taking a holiday, thereby paying real homage to Mahatma Gandhi.

Jyotish context

•  Chandra in in shani rashi of maker which means that in his mind he is very labour oriented and will focus on work. Shani represents labour . His three graha , Surya, Chandra and Budh are in rash of shani. Shani is also aspecting Chandra from vrishchika thereby strengthening his thoughts on work related ethics.

Tharoor's first wife was Tilottama Mukherji, a granddaughter of Kailashnath Katju and thus a first cousin of Markandey Katju. She is now a professor of humanities at New York University.^[70] They have two sons, Kanishk and Ishaan.^[71] Ishaan is a former senior editor at Time magazine, and now writes on foreign affairs for The Washington Post. Kanishk is a former editor at Open Democracy, and is working on a novel in New York^. Kanishk is associate editor at open Democracy.net.

Later Shashi married Christa Giles, a Canadian diplomat working at the United Nations.

After their divorce, Tharoor married Sunanda Pushkar in his ancestral home in Elavanchery village in Kerala's Palakkad district on August 2010. On 17 January 2014 Sunanda aged 52, was killed at The Leela Hotel in Chanakyapuri, New Delhi.

Jyotish context on his personal relationships

• Shukra in mesha rashi gives relationships based on sexual passion rather than emotions. Shukra   7^th Drishti to Tula , thereby promoting marriage , sexual relations. Such natives prefer aggressive , forward moving (mangal) , entrepreneurial kind of partners.
• Guru drishti to Shukra means female partners will always be either Teacher, learned , highly educated or celebrity kind (guru in simha).  His first wife Tilottama is Humanties professor in U.S. His second wife Christina giles was Senior Officer in United Nations (Guru, akash Tattva, Global organization).  His 3^rd wife Sunanda Pushkar was Celebrity and moved in Business circles.
• Venus (Jala) in Agni rashi (mesha) will definitely bring troubles in relationships. Since Shukra is in mesha (chara rashi) , relationships will not be stable.
• Shukra in mesha will make native keep moving forward in relationships. He has not repented from his earlier marriages with Tilottama and Christina Giles and married sunanda for 3rd time. Even after Sunanda's death, his name was being associated with Mehr Tarar , a pakistani journalist for his relationships. 
•  Shukra is in ketu nakshatra confirming end of his relationships. Whichever women who will walk into his life will meet the same fate of dis connection.

Indira Gandhi, Allahabad, Time of Birth 23 Hrs 11 Minutes

Indira Gandhi has Saturn as Atma karaka. saturn represents no change , cold behaviour, no nonsense , strict rules approach.Therefore the desire of atma will be to follow these paths.  Atma karaka in lagna itself is give of fame and power to the individual.

In her Chart, Saturn Rules 7th house (representing external world) and 8th House (Transformation, sudden change, sudden force, Hidden) and mool trikona house of Saturn is 8th house which represents Transformation. Therefore these two houses will indicate desire and suffering.

 Saturn in her lagna in sign cancer whose dispositor is Moon.  Moon has occupied capricorn sign in 7th house which is sign of leader ship and social rank. Therefore her  mind set was to gain leadership and rank . Saturn is again placed in Capricorn navamsa and aspecting 5th house of power confirming this. Capricorn sign (makar rasi) represents social order, law , Recognition, reputation, Respect for Positions of Power punishments, consequences, system-wide rules, no individual exceptions etc. She imposed emergency in 1975-77 to restore the social order post allahabad high court decision against her on electoral malpractices. shani in makar rasi  means (service with strict rules)

Saturn  represents masses and general working class, poor people . Her landslide victory came with a campaign called " Garibi Hatao' (look Saturn effect here) in 1971

Her husband Feroz died in very early age giving her lifetime loneliness. She had a lonely childhood as her younger brother died in early age. Her father Jawaharlal Nehru was mostly away and had limited contact with her through letters. we find that atmakaraka is placed in Arudha of 9th and 11th house in lagna confirming huge gains and luck for her.

Profession in Company selling Xerox machines

I was working with Modi Xerox ( selling photocopy and printing machines and fax machines) in 1998 in delhi and had a colleague who also worked in my department. I recently met him after 15 years and told him my interest in jyotisa . He requested me to do his Chart reading.

His date of birth is as follows

20/7/66

Delhi

Time of birth 8.35 am.

 As far as my own horoscope is concerned , it's gemini sign in 10th house confirming my karma shetra in printing and telecom. ( I left Xerox in 2000 and then worked with  Telecom companies. 

When I looked at his chart , it was Taurus sign in 10th house in his chart whose Lord venus was occupying gemini sign in 11th house confirming his karmashetra also in printing. I then asked him that since Taurus is ruling 10th house , there must be some association with the banks ( Taurus represents financial institutions) . He told me that he has been recently shifted from delhi to Mumbai and has been made incharge as service delivery manager taking care of banking clients. Interestingly his 8th house had Saturn (6th Lord of service and 7th Lord ( 7th is 10th from 10th) . Saturn was aspecting his 10th house from 8th. Saturn represents  shadow and Xerox  machine is shadow based printing. He has been working there for now almost 17 years earlier as secretary and now made as service delivery manager recently. Saturn occupying 8th and aspecting 10th confirm service  for such a long duration. Taurus is fixed sign ( pruthi tatva)  in his 10th house has also contributed to no career or job change. 

He then shared and confessed that he has lack of confidence since early childhood age. I looked at his chart and found that he was leo ascendant and sun was in Marana karaka Sthan . I told him this is the single biggest reason of his lack of confidence and advised him to worship sun and enchant surya Beej mantra. 

Shahrukh Khan - Magic of Rahu and Mangal Grah

Born on November 2, 1965 at New Delhi. The planetary position were as follows on 2/11/65. we shall follow Moon sign for our reading as we have no confirmation on accuracy of his Time of Birth as the same is not available in Public domain.

Born in dhanistha nakshatra of Mars in Makar rasi. It is so amazing that both Salman and shahrukh are born in Dhanistha Nakshatra. The martian energy to keep moving or always moving ahead in life is propelling both of them to keep moving forward. Both of them wish to be the leader of Bollywood.  we all Know that if Salman has physical Body energy then Shahrukh has non stopping working energy of Mars. He is the most busiest actor and his energy levels are well known to everyone. Saturn , the ruler of this rasi makes him extremely Hard working person despite his fame.

 As we all know that Mangal represents Police , army and professions related to warrior class. Therefore the warrior energy will prevail.

Nakshatra lord Mangal is in own scorpio rasi. This is a rasi of life transformation and re birth, cuts and wounds, surgeries .He has undergone 11 surgeries in his life which confirms the effect of nakshatrapati mangal residing in Scorpio rasi.His transformation happened when he acted in Fauji serial as Commando (Note effects of Mangal here).

Mars is aspecting Acquarius (which is 2nd from Moon representing wealth ) rasi , Vrishabha or Taurus (7th aspect) rasi which is trine to Moon rasi makar.

Scorpio rasi is 11th rashi from makar rasi (where his moon is placed). Therefore scorpio rashi is  rasi of gains for Shahrukh.

Now look carefully here. This scorpio or vrishchik rasi represents hidden , psychic, mystical , cuts and wounds , invasion , death and rebirth , sudden invasion , emergency etc. Shahrukh khan movies where he played role of hidden Psychic lover (Movie...Darr) and where his role would constitute  blood or cuts or wounded body or things related to scorpio / vrishchik rasi will bring significant gains to him. In Fauji serial, he acted as Commando (sudden invasion) and shot to fame.

Birth nakshatrapati mangal is lording 4th and 11th house from moon sign and occupying 11th house of gains/ Income. Rasi owner Shani is owning 2nd house . Therefore Rahu , Shani and Mangal will give him tremendous wealth as they are lords of 2 and 11. Look at the planets. Sun and Jupiter are also in nakshatra of Rahu. Rahu himself is in trines to Moon sign representing sudden fame and huge desire for fame and bright lights. This has truly manifested in his Birth chart.

Rahu and Mangal are aspecting each other resulting in phenominal gains.

Moon is 7th lord from chandra lagna and  aspecting the chandra lagna resulting in great emotional bonding with wife. 7th house has cancer sign which represents childhood, school, mother land, domestic happiness. Shahrukh's wife Gauri was his childhood friend when they were in school. Rahu , occupying 5th house of love, is in moon Nakshatra of Rohini and Moon is lording 7th house from chandra lagna. Rahu creates great infatuation and desire where it sits. He was madly in love with Gauri Khan .


Barbara Pijan , great western astrologer ,says ...................................................

when Rahu is in Putra Bhava (5th house), there is Urgent ambition to create drama, 
passion for politics, celebrity, literary genius, games,urgently ambitious charisma, disguised as royalty, prestige sought via center-stage roles through children, creativity, literature, intelligence fashion, politics, royalty, celebrity,desire to be recognized as a radiant light,fascinating heart, spine Elevation through Celebration

His association with IPL confirms his deep hunger or urgent desire to get elevation  and acquire center stage role. His Team Kolkatta Knight Riders is number one IPL team. Its all due to effects of Rahu in 5th from Moon.

His Birth chart revolves around ......

Dhanishtha nakshatra (dancing and moving ahead) ...Dil to Pagal Hai..Dance extravagenza

Mars or mangal (Cuts and wounds, blood , army, psychic lover, ).....Darr Movie

Rahu (Greed, lust, sudden elevation, speculation)  Darr movie, IPL matches..

Rahu in Rohini nakshtra of Moon (emotions) in 5th house of love...his emotional love stories are Big hit in entertainment..Dilwale dulhaniya le jayage... Effect of Rahu in Moon nakshtra in 5th house setting connections with 7th house of marriage.

Mangal is lording 4th and 8th house showing death house of mother. Its himself sitting in 8th house and aspecting 5th house (beinng 2nd house as maraka house for mother).

Surprisingly again the lord of 8th house for father house (9th house rashi Virgo) is Mangal. Lagna lord Mercury for father and Mangal are sitting in 3rd house of father conjoining Ketu who is co lord of  scorpio. Hence Mangal is very malefic for both is parents and he lost both of them at very young age.
