When Chandra occupies bhava-9 * the radical lagna = located in 5th-from-Chandra. One has a special affinity for 5th-from matters such as creativity, politics, amusements, games, fashion, and drama. The 5th angle is a signature of a uniquely intelligent agent, a creative game-player and speculator, free of conventional restraints. Chandra-9 nativities are often found in political and entertainment roles with a global, humanistic reach.

Furthermore matrikaraka Chandra occupies pitristhana 9 suggesting that the mother and the father share a doctrinal alignment. Whatever may be other stress between the parents, they tend to unify on matters of the paradigm of belief, including dharma (viewpoint), doctrine, sacred teachings, ideology, and theory.

Chandra-9 seeks comfort in catechisms of belief, articles of faith, interpretation of sacred scripture, university culture, professorship, and inclusive viewpoint. Chandra-9 is particularly sensitive to the needs of father-figures, professors, pontiffs, hierophants, indoctrinators, and guru-guides.

Matrikaraka Chandra is particularly sensitive to the needs of her own father She may be closely identified with him and his role in the world.

Definitive influence of Graha-yuti-Chandra

Anything which may be said of Chandra must be prefaced by a disclaimer. Professor Chandra is the soul of impressionability. He lives to reflect. Therefore, the characteristics of other graha yuti Chandra are often more in evidence than the underlying behaviors of Chandra Himself.

Somana + Kuja * Emotionally competitive
Somana + Budha * Emotionally communicative
Somana + Guru* Emotionally effusive* Emotionally expansive
Somana + Zukra* Emotionally indulgent
Somana + Shani * Emotionally constricted
Somana + Surya* Emotionally entitled * Emotionally self-focused
Somana + Rahu* Emotionally expedient
Somana + Ketu* Emotionally scattered

Comforted by Catechism

Chandra-9 needs constant emotional engagement with matters of ideology, philosophy, doctrine or theory.

Emotionally stabilized in environments featuring philosophical father-figures such as professors, preachers, presbyters, and popes. The mother is often a religious personality who holds a public role in matters of worship, theology, ideology, and doctrine.

Mother-figure * local rhythms subsume the global view

Chandra-9 denotes a distinctive behavior of the mother-figure(s). As always, much depends upon graha-yuti-Chandra. However typically and predictably, Chandra-8 points to a doctrinally rooted mother whose tenets of belief are grounded through a faith community that has notably localized characteristics.

Due to the awkward angle of Chandra in 6th-from-swabhava, Chandra-9 suffers a tendency to confuse the ethnic folkways, ancient customs, and established cultural norms of a settled people (Chandra, folk roots) with the philosophical frameworks of belief which interpret a greater reality (Guru, wide wisdom). Thus the mother figure may be a "deeply religious" personality who finds comfort in the soothing rhythms of an ancient form of ritual worship, and who is specifically disinterested in the global, theoretical viewpoint of bhava-9. It is generally easy to identify the Chandra-9 nativity due to the obvious nature of the mother's bondage to her stabilizing catechism.

Parents, especially Mother, are Local, Applied Believers

The relationship with the parents can be conflicted with Chandra located in 6th-from-4th, suggesting disagreement (6) over matters of localized custom, rhythms, religions, and routines (4). Yet the mother provides a guiding wisdom.

The birth-mother herself is often deeply involved in spiritual guidance activities within the faith community (9 = 11th-from-11th, community of communities). Yet she may also be recognized as a type of applied religious philosopher who is able to discuss the local applications of her beliefs to situations of daily life (Chandra).

Rooted in the rhythms of belief

Membership in a faith community, profession of religious or ideological belief, and discourse on humanistic global culture may provide the emotional foundation of life.

Old Time Feeling 1929-2003 June Carter Cash + Guru * born into a faith community of rural American "Old Time Believers" the famous ballad singer Ms. Carter-Cash expressed an attitude of inseparable, organic, single-pulse perception of Presbyterian religious doctrine, transplanted Scotch-Irish folk folkways, ancient customs, and established cultural norms, deep-rooted agricultural lifestyle, and the seasonal rhythms of the Appalachian Mountains. Rather than the discussion and debate about perceptions of reality that would typically characterize bhava-9, her Chandra-yuti-Guru-9 exemplifies the emotional response to doctrine as a "lived experience" that fluctuates but does not change.

Typically a sensitive, intelligent personality whose primary emotional experience occurs in the world of philosophical thought or conversation with the divine. Feeling of emotional safety when in the company of the sangha and during performance of the sacred liturgy.

Feels grounded when reading sacred scripture and purely philosophical texts, worshipping in a faithful congregation, and discussing the tenets of the faith.

Naturally, if Chandra-9 is disoriented by unsettling planetary rays, Chandra-9's emotional dependence upon the doctrines of received belief may also be affected.

Chandra in Bhava-9

swabhava of friendly Guru
intuitive understanding of philosophical teachings
emotional affinity for sacred knowledge
mother = pious, studious, and ritualistic
emotionally attached to the partner's relatives-siblings
exceptionally sensitive to humanistic philosophies , global wisdom, and perceived religious teachings

Chandra in dharma bhava = 6th from Soma's natural residence Bandhu bhava = not always advantageous.

Deeply emotional need to adhere to an established doctrine.

Affection for religious instructors, priests, liturgical ritual, scripture, and the cultural environments of sacred worship. If one is a parent, the parenting behavior may focus inordinately upon religious adherence in the upbringing of children.

Soma in Bhava-9 = splendid placement for philanthropists, philosophers, preachers and priests.

Bhagya Chandra provides a globalized affection for children (Guru) and a sincere emotional connection to the Divine.

Mighty Heart 1975- drama-activist Angelina Jolie worldwide mission for welfare of children

When Soma is well-disposed, Chandra-9 = a natural bhakti yogi who approaches all things religious in a mood of nurturing devotion.

TM 1917-2008 Maharishi Mahesh Yogi * Magha
Super Brain 1946- Dr. Deepak Chopra * exponent of Avurveda doctrine
Top Gun 1962- drama-commerce Tom Cruise *exponent of Scientology doctrine
Old Time Feeling 1929-2003 June Carter Cash *exponent of Pentecostal Christian doctrine
Lord of the Rings 1892-1973 J.R.R. Tolkien + Guru Tolkien was famed for his devotional adherence to Roman Catholic doctrine, received from his mother (Chandra)

However, should Chandra be ill-disposed, or with Rahu, the native may project unmet emotional need upon the framework of ceremonial religion.

Other expressions of Somana =

The mother (Chandra) dominates the patriarchal roles (9), often to the extent that the mother replaces the father in the child's affections. + Zukra
Religious predisposition toward goddess * worth-ship * worship and the old maternal or marine ("mary") religions
father may be morally corrupt, the guru manipulative, and the temple a site of angry outbursts + Mangala .
Chandra-9 may seek childhood trauma healing in a cult of religious liturgy , only to find that the emotional abuse patterns recur in adulthood, with the guru or senior officiant replacing the perpetrator parent yuti Rahu, or Chandra in a challenged nakshatra

Profound emotional need for nurturing can overwhelm philosophically grounded compassion for all beings. Chandra-9 may be unable expand beyond one's own trauma.

Chandra-9 may assume a parent-child relationship to the religious teacher, when a more respectful guru-sisya role would be more philosophically productive.

Yet whatever the condition of Chandra in bhava-9, there will be a tangible love of humanity and some measure of progressive compassion, due to an inborn need for faith.

deepest habitual, rhythmic comfort is found in environments of bhava-9 such as

the university,
the temple,
the philosophers' grove
professorial discourse
world travel
sacred studies
wherever wisdom teaching and preaching are given.

Sentimental affection toward

the temple,
patriarchal folkways, ancient customs, and established cultural norms,
priests, preachers, professors,
grandchildren
pater-noster;
places and practices of public worship.

Mangala + Chandra in 9 makes the native rich, but prognosis is Challenge to craft a balance within the relationship to the father.

Needs professions of faith, taking vows, and ritual performance.

Mate

Chandra-9 = 7th-from-Chandra becomes Bhava-3 = signal, message, cohort.

Spouse-partner = talkative, localized or parochial in orientation, often engaged in neighborhood activities or socializing with workmates, and quite a mentalized personality.

the native prefers a more professorial role of thinking big thoughts on matters of principle, whereas the spouse prefers the micro world of day-to-day communications and sibling-style relationships.

Chandra-9 ABSORBS priestly duties of ceremonial religion into oneself.

Can create some emotional pressure to undertake roles of guru or moral leader, whether one has the proper training to hold that role, or not.

Krishana

Shani transits the 8th bhava counted from Chandra-9 lagna

Shani enters bhava-4 swabhava of Chandra = neutral of Shani, which forecasts a relatively easier passage for regulatory, institutional Shani moving across the domain of stability, security, predictable rhythms, schooling, and habitual lifestyle
Shani ashtamsha occurring in bandhusthana can be a long siege of household or vehicle restrictions and insufficiencies (for example, a struggle to pay mortgage, boat, or car-loan; or complete a school diploma).
Typically one succeeds via discipline and doubled work in the emotional effort to recover (8th) the foundations of the secure lifestyle and restore a once-threatened physical stability.

Many interactions with educators, police, property managers, fencers, home builders and repairers, vehicle repair folk, and others concerned with home-vehicle-school or property boundaries.

These difficult and highly rule-bound events force adeeper understanding of the nature of physical, social, financial, psychological, mental, emotional, social, and spiritual security and protection.

Can also be a period of legally obligatory military service in defense of the homeland (4).

Final outcome depends significantly upon:

current Vimshottari dasha bhukti period(s)
the presence of graha within bhava-6
any graha yuti Chandra
possible intensification when natal Shani in bhava-6

Maternal, intuitive, emotional style of religious behavior. Much affection from the people. One-world love of children and wisdom. Sincere, heart-centered philosopher, but effectiveness depends on Chandra's lord. religious outreach to mother-and-child, elderly, weaklings needing care, the old ways.

If other graha support, may take up residence in the temple of a goddess or cultivate the religion of the Divine Mother. Likes religious ceremonies that feed and heal people. Wants to feed the world. Favors a guru who has assumed a female body, or a touch-healing guru.

Favors happiness through religious cultures which hold maternal embrace and nurturing love in the highest regard.

Mother

Mother = guru and guide. A highly benevolent

influence for the native (barring unpleasant drishti etc.).

One may become deeply attached to the grandchild, but the fate of the children is less certain since matrikaraka in 9 causes adversarial emotional relationship to matters of (4) = house and home.

Emotional attachment to habitual rhythms of caring for grandchildren, puja, honoring (but not necessarily understanding) sacred knowledge, and habitual repetitions of festivals in ceremonial religion.

Often indicates that the mother has become the primary parent, and that her religious beliefs are at loggerheads (6/8) with the stability and security of the family home (4). Particularly if Surya is weak, the mother will be the primary advocate for the child and usually also the primary moral authority in the home.

The mother = doctrinal and philosophical, although if Chandra is not strong by rashi that concern with principled discourse can be minimally a show of public piety or conformity to received dogma. Typically the mother is well-educated relative to her society's standards.

If matrikaraka Chandra is well disposed, the Mother participates in the culture of ritual priesthood in the temple of worship, supports the core sacramentalism of her faith, and normally she also values the culture of university life, often forming the major impetus behind her child's success in higher education.

For Simha lagna, Chandra = lord of 4th-from-Chandra also, thus the maternal grandmother has the same ritually religious, scholarly or devout character as the mother.

A man may feel that his mother provides strong moral instruction, and overall fortune during his childhood. Adult emotional relationships are full of appreciation for the others' virtues. The one can even see the virtues of one's enemies.

A woman may see her mother as a protective, morally grounded instructor. The mother-daughter relationship is typically supportive and permissive. Mother and daughter enjoy equality in fellowship, while carrying on some tradition of knowledge or craft.

(Naturally the drishti of Shani, Kuja, Rahu-Ketu or a dushthamsha lord upon Soma will alter this favorable prognosis.)

6th-from-Chandra

Disagreement, disappointment, emotional servitude

When Chandra occupies Bhava-9, the emotionally most difficult bhava becomes 6th-from-9th = Dhana bhava.

Emotional Suffering from

Family or origin and hoards of value
banks, bankers, collections, and collection managers; and members of the family history

Depending on conditions in Bhava-2, Chandra-9 may experience affective difficulties due to disagreements with the family history, about wealth and stored values, about record-keeping, speech and song, and the public life of one's children.

giving more than one receives

For the Chandra-9 nativity, L-2 may produce emotional servitude during its Vimshottari period.
Wealth and family culture = a particular source of that problem of disappointment, frustration with inferior results, or exploitative overwork.
The burden of carrying forward the core values (2) of the family history may continue to demand more in service than it is able to repay in reward.
The second marriage (Bhava-2) may be particularly problematic.
Chandra-9 may feel emotionally unsuited to carry out the requirements and traditions of the family history, including maintenance of the lineage resources of financial wealth .
As a result Chandra-9 may feel emotionally enslaved to the family history and its lineage values.
