disintegrating KETU occupies URISHA- RASHI

mystical values, dispersed treasuries

One's ability to gather up collections of value is both unlimited and unimportant.

"Been there, done that" ennui regarding affluence, lavish-lifestyles, asset-collections, warehousing and storage, preservation of historical knowledge, genetics and breeding, precious acquisitions, databases and libraries, music-voice-face-hair-eyes, valuation and pricing, memory, language, songs, speech, tradition, lineage values, stories of the family-of-origin

Truth-telling may seem vapidly irrelevant.

Ketu-Urisha provides the lifetime ease of No Resistance to sensual pleasures, collecting and storage behaviors, wealth acquisition, and beauties of the face, eyes, and, mouth.

Cloud-cover Ketu represents surrender, "Islam" . Ketu surrenders effortlessly to whatever experience is provided.

Vrishabha indicate values, validity, validation.

Depending on the graha and disposition of Ketu's ruler, Vimshottari periods of Ketu-Urisha [or similarly, Ketu-Tula] may produce the experience of invalidation.

The bhava of Ketu's ruler Shukra can also provide invalidation regarding one's roles in matters of that bhava or the karaka-signification of that bhava.

EXAMPLE

POTUS-04 USA-Constitution 1751-1836 James Madison

  • A career politician, JM experienced considerable invalidation in matters concerning economic values and children.

  • His adopted son (Dolley Madison's son from her first marriage) was JM's only child. This boy became an alcoholic, gambler, debtor, and jailbird who eventually bankrupted both of his parents.

  • Ketu-11's ruler Shukra enjoys uchchamsha in bhava-9. Yet, Madison's economic revenues dropped precipitously toward the end of his decades of public service.

  • Part of Shukra's debility is attributable to asta-Shukra-yuti-Surya combustion, but another complex stress-factor - for children, politics, and speculation = Shani-yuti-Rahu-5.

EXAMPLE

Ford Motor Co. 1863-1947 assembly line Henry Ford [inventive-pioneering Rohiṇī-1]

+ nīcha-Shukra-6 activates Ketu-3-Vrishabha

  • HF developed unbalanced, groundless [Ketu] historical claims [Urisha] about the human race [4] - and how to protect it from devaluation [Ketu-Urisha]. AF concocted narratives [Urisha] of racial qualities, using unsubstantiated [Ketu] logic [masked Kanya-Shukra-8].

  • Increasingly anxious during his final 7 years in Ketu Mahadasha [age 77-83] HF was unable to make an agreement (Shukra-nīcha) to transfer executive power to the younger generation of his kin [Urisha]. His only son had predeceased him, and HF could not confirm [Ketu] a positive valuation of any in-family candidate.

  • Until nearly the hour of death, HF clung to the ephemeral [Ketu] delusion that only his own leadership [Rahu-10] could drive the company forward. Eventually power was transferred to a grandson.

EXAMPLE

POTUS-32 Fireside Chats 1882-1945 Franklin D. Roosevelt [oratorical-evaluating Rohiṇī-2]

  • FDR a range of invalidating experiences with women and marriage. Similar to Madison, his Shukra is closely moudhya in bhava-5. FDR enjoyed political environments. He = suave and entertaining communicator, and handsome. Yet, his biography confirms significant erosion of trusts and contracts. Shukra-Makara-Draco = dadgha - ruling Ketu-9 put his paradigm of belief into relationships into a lifelong tailspin.

In Vrishabha, Ketu surrenders to the acquisition of stored values= either treasuries of knowledge or material commodities of exchange.

If the nativity shows an otherwise fortified development of the accumulative energies [Shukra] Ketu-Urisha may perform at high levels of financial well-being and knowledge-acquisition, banking, beauty, memory retrieval, and storage behaviors.

However, generally Ketu's apathy leads to a considerable detachment from the acquisitive behaviors.

Shri Ganesha ensures that one is no longer attached to the collecting process, and this detachment liberates both the enemies and the supporters.

Ketu-Urisha provides many scatter-shot experiences with persons of treasury and frequent encounters with banks of natural resources.

Yet ironically because of the absence of egoic-mind attachment Ketu-Urish = unlikely believe that collections of value are important. Access comes and goes -- to knowledge, language, food, beauty, voice, wine, or money. Ah, here it is. Ah, there it goes.

Rich values are not blocked but also not retained. Money especially comes and goes. Ketu-Urisha provides little incentive to hold onto treasuries.

EXAMPLE

POTUS-04 USA-Constitution 1751-1836 James Madison [Ketu-Urisha-11 dissolution of marketplace values occupies political Mriga-1]

  • Lifepartner Dolley Payne Madison 's first husband and elder boy had perished in a terrible yellow fever epidemic. Madison adopted Dolley's surviving toddler son. The adopted boy became an alcoholic and compulsive gambler who was frequently jailed for gaming-debt and theft.

  • While Madison was away on government service-duty, the stepson mismanaged Madison's farm properties. Ultimately, the son [and their unwillingness to control him - Ketu] plunged the family into financial ruin.

  • Nevertheless, James and Dolley Madison supported this young man until the end of their lives [Ketu ruled by uchcha-Shukra-9, patronage].

  • Madison seemed to put up very little resistance [Ketu] to the boy's decades-long pattern of financial drain upon the family revenues [11]. JM allowed his estate to dwindle, and Dolley died in acute poverty as a result.

Attitude of been there, done that = can be quite apathetic and detached even when the relative absence of obstacles has eased the process of store-holding.

Ketu in a rashi of Shukra functions similarly to Chandra in the Shukra-ruled Nakshatra :

  • Chandra-Bharani = hard-working, eye on the money * needs to carry valuable burdens * safeguards the treasuries * protects precious values

  • Chandra-Pūrvaphalgunī = soothed by sparkling luxury * protectors of musical entertainments * needs brilliant beauty * feels entitled = luxury-loving, sweet, likes red things

  • Chandra in Pūrvāṣāḍhā = music-and-arts educator, believes in truth via beauty * calmed by valued beliefs * protectors of inspirational beauty * needs philosophical harmony

[Ketu in Bhava-2] little concern for the values of speech, language, memory, heritage, storage, memory

Check Shukra before predicting outcomes.

even when there are other indicators suggesting multiple marriages, Ketu-2 dissolves the second social-recognized contractual union.

[Ketu in Bhava-4] little concern for the values of stability, security, schooling, housing childhood

EXAMPLE

SoAfrica-Pres 1918-2013 Long Walk to Freedom Nelson Mandela [analytical-helping Mriga-2]

  • According to NM's autobiography, he was required to leave home and be raised in the houses of other tribal aristocrats who were loyal to his royal father.

  • NM remained a wanderer, starting-and-leaving various schools, traveling for political organizing work, and staying with friends more often than with his own family.

  • After much dispersion of the schooling, alaw diploma begun his age 26 was completed at his age 70.

Check Shukra before predicting outcomes.

[Ketu in Bhava-7] little concern for the values of partnership, equity, fair contracts, bargained agreements, shared treasury

the partner is usually, similarly, detached from mutually agreed evaluative assessments based on a shared standard of worth, and disinterested in mutual pleasures.

Concluding Ketu-7 spouse of Rahu-1 privileged personality. Spousal detachment from trade exchange - undiplomatic, does not wish to negotiate with the Rahu-1 Other.

Check Shukra before predicting outcomes.

[energizing-identifying co-lagnesha co-ruler for Vṛścika indriya-lagna] scatters the covenant -

Scattering of the core of conventional trust. However, Ketu lagnesha has special benefits, and Ketu-Urish may gain energy from severance of unsustainable contracts.

Collapsing Ketu -Urisha in bhava-7 may indicate chronic disconnection or abandonment issues regarding the life-partner(s) and marriage contract. Specifically the core breakage-of-trust topic = treasury, holdings, assets, and genetic lineage.

EXAMPLE

England-King 1491-1547 Henry VIII [Ketu = innovative-pioneering Rohiṇī-1] + [Rohiṇī-Ketu-yuti-Shukra-Rohiṇī]

  • Desperate to produce a male heir, Henry decapitated [Ketu] several of his six wives. The others died naturally, in states of divorce or widowhood [Ketu-yuti-Shukra].

  • On the plus side, due to his Rahu-4 property acquisition, Henry also severed [Ketu] the 1000-year-old financial contracts [Shukra] which streamed the property taxes from vast British lands into the coffers of the Vatican.

  • Those bonds, which Ketu the Liberator will loosen, when freed may help Rahu to strengthen His own desires.

Devaluation . the characteristic activity of Ketu-Vrishabha

= does not care about acquisition of bargained values.

Ketu-Urisha does not prevent affluence, but Ketu-Urisha does prevent egoic-mind attachment to wealth. As a result, wealth tends to come and go, with abrupt incursions of financial well-being into the Learner's life and equally abrupt separations from material luxury.

Ketu-Urisha may have association with extreme luxury at times, and massive poverty too. Neither environment can possess any permanent measure of value for the Learner .

In Vrishabha, Ketu's detached witness behaviors acquire Shukra-like sensual pleasure and wealth-attracting characteristics.

Potential for lavish luxury in the Learner's environment. Yet, Ketu-Urisha = curiously detached response to sensual enjoyment = appreciative but not much acquisitive.

EXAMPLE

Japan-Emperor1901-1989 Showa Hirohito [governing-regulatory Kṛttikā-2]

  • Despite having been born into the luxurious Divine Perfection of the Chrysanthemum Throne, Hirohito was nonetheless known for his modesty.

  • He showed disinterest [Ketu] in pompous, conspicuous displays of material wealth [Urisha visual-sensual experience of preciousness, affluence].

Similar to Ketu in bhava-2, but less specific detail. Results depend upon how Professor Bright Beautiful Bhrigu functions in the overall nativity.

Naturally Ketu's results are greatly affected by any graha yuti Ketu; Ketu's bhava' incoming drishti to His absorptive and apathetic script; and the character of His Professor Shukra.

EXAMPLE

Newspapers 1863-1951 plutocrat William Randolph Hearst [financial-evaluating Rohiṇī-2] + [Rohiṇī-Shukra-yuti-Ketu-Rohiṇī]

  • WRH = vicious labor strikebreaker (Shukra-fairness, justice, contracts; Ketu breaker).

  • A predatory capitalist-fascist who did not comprehend the concept of fair deals, WRH lack of equity awareness extended to his sixth child, a daughter born into his second but unavowed lifepartnership [Ketu].

  • The child was adopted by the mother's aunt who lived nearby. Child-6 was visited often and given luxurious gifts [Urisha] but never publicly acknowledged.

Ketu = been there, done that =parallel life pull

One's awareness is drawn [by akashic memory]

into the worlds of financial well-being and sensual pleasure,

where Ketu-Urisha may mingle with bankers, vintners, art collectors, historians, scholarly curators, clergy, and linguists -- as one is accustomed to doing in simultaneous lives,

Yet, in the current lifespan, the thrill of collecting and accumulating is long gone.

Ketu-Urisha seeks to pleasantly disperse the collected wealth, scattering it like particles of dust in a thick dust-cloud

EXAMPLE

Raja Yoga 1863-1902 Swami Vivekananda [ritualizing-protective Rohiṇī-4]

  • surrounded by Euro-American financially privileged devotees and admirers who were more than happy to fund SV's philosophical mission. However, the Swami himself maintained an amused detachment from treasuries, accumulating nothing for his own hoard.

Little can be said with certainty about Ketu without knowing the rashi and bhava of Shukra; plus, any incoming drishti to Ketu must be measured.

One minimal comment = Ketu-Urisha rashi may blunt the sensitivities of Shukra, making Ketu-Urisha unsure about pleasure-values in general. In particular there may be uncertainty regarding where to establish the limits on sensual indulgence and entreasuring collections.

Ketu-Urisha may easily lose oneself in immersion of escapist pleasuring behavior. These no-boundary patterns may include indulgent, acquisitive pleasure of accumulating money and objects of value. Yet, upon reflection Ketu-Urisha may question the coherence of this indulgence, asking, what is the value of that acquired item or that sensual experience?

Ketu's signature is disenchantment with formal structures and fixed objects of perception.

In Shukra-rashi, Shri Ketu's route toward self-dissolution goes down the path of Shukra's portfolio.

If Shukra is luxuriously endowed, then drugs, alcohol, fine fabrics, lovely appearances, delicious foods and scented oils may appear. However, no amount of pleasure can be satisfying because Ketu dissolves the stasis of satisfaction. Therefore, Ketu-Urisha may becomes cantankerous. The body's cravings are never fulfilled; sensual desires only appear-and-disappear, without providing a lasting satisfaction.

Ketu-Urisha may seek deepest fulfillment through experience of marriage and valuable alliances, but that area of life is precisely where Ketu-Urish becomes is most disenchanted.

Love behavior may be judged by outsiders as passive-aggressive because the native simultaneously wants the deepest pleasures of human companionship, while always feeling unsatisfied and rejecting one pleasure-source after the next.

Fundamental dissatisfaction with money, no matter how much or how little one has of it.

Ketu-Urisha either self-scatters through sensual addictions or Ketu-Urish may develop a very selective sensual filter, allowing the native to pursue only those pleasures which advance specific spiritual goals.

With maturity, Ketu-Urisha may adopt an increasingly austere aesthetic . Ketu similar to Shani gives better results in upachaya bhava and with age. In Vrishabha, Ketu is never able to fully dissociate from sensual desire.

Permanently unable to significantly connect with partners yet unable to break free of the dependencies which define the union -- think myth of Rahu-Ketu.

QUOTATION from Das

"Rahu is in Scorpio, and Ketu is in Taurus."

" Revengeful, much strife and struggle for living, hardly any achievement worth a name

  • Excited when challenged.

  • Touches extremes resulting in misfortunes.

Hidden motives and energies seldom find an expression.

  • Fortune through a noble partner, though you survive your spouse.

Honor and recognition from the government and learned people.

  • Fair and just."
