Signaler of  Seniority

Jyestha ruled by Budha 16 Vrischika 40 -until- 29 Vrischika 59 USA Pres.3, Thomas Jefferson Nicole Kidman (actor) Jennifer Aniston (actor) Tiger Woods (golf champion) Wladzia Valentino "Liberace" (pianist, performer) Christopher Reeve (actor, health activist) Carl Sagan (actor, self-appointed science authority) Albert Einstein (cosmologist) Frederich Nietzsche (philosophy writer) Elizabeth Clare Prophet (cult leader, writer) Stephen King (fiction writer)	Radix Moon in Jyestha  = "Eldest" - seniority  and supremacy "I know better than you" (Kuja-Budha-Indra.)  Like its sibling Nakshatra Ashlesha and Revati, Jyestha is not an easy emotional placement for Chandra. Lord Budha grossly dislikes the Moon (who is Budha's true father). Budha's mentalized style of conducting emotional life is often antithetical to Chandra's anti-intellectual, intuitive, responsive character. Further stirred by the competitive, athletic, dominating vitality of Mangala, the Jyestha native is often intolerant of the viewpoints and emotional truth of others. The Jyestha native needs, and usually gets, a great deal of control. Wealth When Jyestha Chandra in domains 1, 2, 4, 5, 7, 9, 10, or 11 combines with Mangala , the resulting Chandra-Mangala Yoga is very effective . The native may grow exceptionally wealthy via a vigorously energized output of works. The Chandra-Mangala native is always on the move.  (Stephen King, Jennifer Aniston, Tiger Woods, Christopher Reeve ). However the relationship consequences of this variety of Chandra-Mangala yoga often include emotional alienation or inability to partner on an equal basis. Marriage The native cannot share authority. In general, the Jyestha native is also handicapped in the attempt to acknowledge the contribution of others toward one's own achievements and public success. The first marriage may suffer from a lack of self-knowledge regarding this reality: if one marries an equal in the first attempt, it is unsustainable. The Chandra-Jyestha native needs to marry an inferior who does not mind being dominated so long as the couple enjoys good public respect. E.g., Albert Einstein initially married another mathematician-physicist but the union was unsustainable due to her joint involvement in his intellectual work inter alia. Einstein never credited her contributions nor anyone else's to his notable work; rather, he gave her all of his Nobel Prize money, then cut her and their children adrift. His second marriage to his cousin and former playmate, a simple woman with no intellectual training but a good heart, was much more pleasant for him. Einstein's case is extreme perhaps because Chandra occupies domain-6 and Chandra lord is the uchcha Kuja + Rahu in 8 (!) however the general pattern is present for most persons, male and female, with the Jyestha-Chandra.   Distinguished by the depth of their convictions, the Jyestha Moon folk radiate a sense of seriousness and natural superiority. Competitive, flamboyant, and shrewd. Flamboyant style based in unshakable conviction of the competitive superiority of one's own viewpoint or physical talent.  Jyestha the Elder is emotionally volatile and cannot abide being told what to do by anyone lower than God. One does listen intently to God; however there is very little tolerance for the perceived arbitrary ethical restrictions of conventional human law. Typically, favored in childhood. An aura of privilege, capability, and confidence. Takes the lead based on certainty re: one's own ability to win (Kuja) whether a physical contest (Woods) or a talent competition (Liberace, Kidman) or an intellectual debate (Jefferson, Einstein, Sagan, Nietzsche).  Can acquire large followings due to the confidence, trust  and admiration which the Jyestha native can inspire (Prophet).  Mangala Mangala is lord of Chandra and lord of 6th-from-Chandra. Therefore Mangala's karaka behaviors such as athleticism, competitiveness, and targeted sexual pursuit, are both deeply instinctive and capable of arousing significant animosity during periods of Kuja. Often there is physical hardship in their lives, imposed through accident, illness or conditions at birth.  Psychically gifted with Budha-Kuja energy can grant occult or shamanistic perception. The wise insights  and spiritual communication they enjoy is due at least in part to their remarkable ability to concentrate mental attention into a single focus point of the physical body.  Rigorous mental discipline becomes necessary to meet the physical pain. (E.g., Eliz Clare Prophet, epilepsy;  Christopher Reeve, paraplegia; Tiger Woods, knee surgeries) Efforts toward overcoming this disability force the native to concentrate intensely on their mind-body links, and seek power deep within. Known as recluses when they are not actively in leadership, they must withdraw into seclusion to recharge their batteries.. Deep emotional need to feel authoritative certainty.

Navamsha Moon in Jyestha (intimate relationships). Mother Teresa	In order to mirror one's own subconscious emotional patterns, one attracts a core partner who expresses Jyestha behavior. Under emotional stress in relationships, native with Jyestha navamsha Chandra can suffer inner control fixation provoking obsessive attention to purity of intention in thought  and prayer.   The native becomes locked into a state of concentration on a goal or mission, and cannot release control in order to enter into a normal relationship balance.  The native may experience the partner (a human or a deity) as an agent of intense mind/body control. Even when things are going well, the partner needs plenty of privacy  and seclusion. to prepare for periods of intense physical activity in their life.
