Radix Moon in Magha = "Great" - regal and eccentric

(Surya-Ketu-Pitris)

Carrying forward the brilliant legacy of the ancient priesthood of the Sun worshippers, the native is able to channel amazing creativity with a confident (Surya) but highly eccentric (Ketu) style.

• Magha means Magic;

• the native can channel divine imagery via emotional appeal to ideals (Surya).

Tremendous philosophical capability and intuitive leadership skills marked by profound self-confidence and dignity of moral character. These folk usually carry high levels of public respect, despite their obvious peccadilloes.

However, Ketu's influence means that this native is morally accountable only to the Divine intelligence within oneself.

• Requires social recognition for individual genius (Surya) even while the native is partly withdrawn from participation and from view (Ketu).

Despite much engagement with ceremonial religion (whether that religion is one of the scriptural traditions or a civil religion, the cult of a State) the native is fundamentally ambivalent about the lasting value of one's social role. After a period of service one may disappear rather completely into private hobbies or a contemplative, socially disengaged life.

When socially engaged, a steady drive toward wealth, power, position.

• Elite self-image. Not arrogant unless other graha make it so. Typically, an elegant and self-confident style.

Needs to obtain paternal [Escriva, Yogananda ] or kingly status.

Concerned to establish one's legitimacy through spiritual, intellectual, or blood lineage.

Deeply loyal to mentors, parents, ancestors - whoever is the grantor of lineage title.

Self-assurance and Ketu's permeable aura makes one seem accessible, friendly and positive. However this native has unpredictable mood change.

It is important to appreciate that despite appearing to value flexibility, this one never yields control.

• Deep emotional need to feel exalted.

In order to mirror one's own subconscious emotional patterns, one attracts a core partner who expresses the regal but withdrawn Magha behavior.
