Rising Nakshatra
Masculine Nativities
Agneya * Riksya * Karthika * Alcyone
BPL commentary
For Krittika births of a masculine valence, the condition of radiant, romantic, intelligent, creative, idealistic, central, confident, gaming, self-reflexive, pitrikaraka Surya may considerably affect the outcome.
For those born into the splendidly Surya-ruled paradigm of Riksya, father-figures, politicians, celebrity, royalty, entitled roles, brilliant dramatists, radiant deities, sparkling genius, glittering creativity, intelligentsia, speculators, poets, romantic lovers, gamblers, and game-players may be especially influential.
Instructional guidance provided by emissaries from the civilizations of the Pleyades. Their purpose is confidence-raising and light-bringing in creative pursuit of values fulfillment.
Radiant Certainty
Agneya-born gentlemen are often found in politics, in gambling and speculation, or in creative finance. Natural dramatists, Riksya-born are brightly idealistic and self-directed seekers of attention.
Mesha pada 1 represents nakshatra-pati Surya's empowerment in romance and celebrity entitlements. In the rashi of Champion Mangala, sparkling Surya asserts radiant genius. Typically pada 1 are dramatists, politicians, royalty, celebrity, creative artists, and unique charismatic figures.
Urisha-pada-2-3-4 express the tension between two-party bargainer Zukra versus one-party autocratic singular nakshatra-pati Surya. Often the intelligence of pada 2-3-4 is focused into the Values-fulfilling sectors of banking and finance, natural resource conservation, music, wines and perfumes, arts, and beauty. Depending on Yogakaraka Shani ruler of 9+10, the Vrishabha pada of Krittika have a stronger propensity toward government positions.
Themes of self-importance, individual entitlement, creativity, and confidence may contextualize Krittika's terrestrial experience. Applies also to Chandra in Krittika-Pleyades

"A proud, dignified, and honorable person
- an executive type.
He is very ambitious and eager for power
and has the ability to achieve his desires.
He has an innate sense of the importance of his destiny .
He expects everything to come to him as his due

FATHER
Dad = POTUS-02 Thoughts on Government 1735-1826 John Adams.
- Dad + son both belonged to the group that has been labeled by some historians as Founding Fathers.
- Surya-yuti-Shani-3 shows JQ Adams' duplication of his father's identity with governance responsibility (Shani) and politics (Surya) in context of the writing of institutional law documents
- Surya in bhava-3 shows JQA's willpower (Surya) to undertake his father's same burden (Shani) of dealing with the production of a corpus of jurisprudential opinion under great time pressure (Shani) in a highly discursive environment (3).
Surya-yuti-Shani = Administration + Communication + Father + Government
- Shani-Mithunaya yuti Surya-Mithunaya * Mithunaya = writings, reports, teamwork, meetings, documents, travel itineraries, messaging, publications, commercial business within the context of government
CAREER - SURYA
Surya in bhava-3 rules 5-politics, drama, center-stage roles, amusement, creative literature, children games, showmanship
3rd-from-3rd contains Surya-ruled hyper-political Zukra-yuti-Guru
Firstly as a writer
As vidya-pati-5 located in 11th-from-5th, JQA had the pattern of a successful writer JQA's writing spanned committee reports, letters of correspondence, jurisprudential analysis, speeches, and vitriolic arguments on many topics. .
JQA's writing was prolific (Guru), disciplined (karmesha Shani), and multi-genre (Mithunaya).
His extensive instructions for principled governance, carefully presented, provided a foundational corpus of legal opinion for the infant nation. JQA's writing began when he served as a scribe for his father's European missions, and ended with his death.
Secondly as a diplomat + transformative agent
- Surya vargottamsha occupies the diplomatic Mithunaya 7th navamsha
- Surya rules the emotionally cataclysmic, identity-transforming, suddenly changing, potentially catastrophic 8th-from-Chandra = revolutionary conditions
- 8th-from-Chandra = 3rd-from-3rd = occupied by political-glamour-expanders Zukra-yuti-Guru
Professionalized (Shani Karmesha) Relationship to father
dutiful Shani + pitrikaraka Surya
= managerial, reporting, touring, process-oriented Surya-Mithunaya
Even as a young boy, JQA attended his father John Adams as a diplomatic scribe (3) during the official travels across Europe.
- As an adult, JQA became a key international diplomat (navamsha-7) arranging alliances via conversation and meetings.
- JQA drafted countless memoranda of understanding + letters of intent (3)
JQA played crucial roles of international diplomacy essential to the survival of the foundling nation
Most of JQA's colleagues respected that his professional accomplishments were achieved by sustained efforts to impose order upon the political discourse of their chaotic times. JQA's focused mental discipline was known and respected, even by his enemies Surya-yuti-Shani = Mithunaya-3
By 1824, the nation that JQA and his parents had worked so hard to build seemed ready to collapse under pressure of vulgar slavery-promoting frontiersmen, led by JQA's arch-enemy POTUS-07 Indian Removal 1767-1845 Andrew Jackson.
Proletarian Overwhelm
Although he was able to serve one POTUS term until 1828, there was little he could do to stanch the flow of wild-mannered, violent, and often dehumanizing "born to fight" Ulster-Scots immigrants. They were changing the face of the juvenile nation. JQA returned to a seat in the USA-Congress. A staunch abolitionist, JQA was speaking in Congress when he died (cerebral hemorrhage).
Old Crank v 2.0
Less favorably, JQA also perpetuated his father's pattern of conflicted relationships and bitter resentments against rivals. Shani in Bhava-3 is associated with depression. Shani in 8th-from-8th often clings to old resentments, preventing regeneration, and refusing to move forward in life.
Chandra * matrikaraka (mother) * garha-karaka (village)
- Chandra-Makara-Draco * comforted by hierarchy * sensitive to class-status * needs ritual ordering
- Chandra in Uttarazadha-Vaizva * soothed by bright visions * protectors of confident conviction * needs intelligent inspiration
- Chandra in classroom-10 * comfortable with law-and-order * socially recognized protector * parental style of leadership * Familiar Face to the public * sensitive to social protocol * accustomed to regulations * soothed by peak position * acculturated to executive routines * settled into the rhythm of respected roles * feels the repeating pulse of elite status * calmed by climbing hierarchical steps * anchored into lawful responsibility * undulating authority
- Somana-yuti-Rahu * Emotionally expedient * sensitive to exotic folks * needs exciting opportunities * unconventional parenting style * soothed by unusual environments * undulating desires * craves nurturing * feels exceptional
MOTHER
Somana-yuti-Rahu -10 leadership, reputation, decision-maker
Mom = the estimable POTUS-pair-02 Letters 1744-1818 Abigail Adams .
- Chandra in classroom-10 rules 4-patriotism
- Patriotic Parents = social Power-Team
- AA was a famed writer of literary correspondence on topics of political philosophy and daily life.
- Her letters kept the fractious Founding Fathers (esp JA and T Jefferson) in steady communication, so that a clear path toward the application of governance principles could be shared by the Leaders
- Mangala in bhava-4 shows the invasive action of war. Attacks on their house and farm
Abigail Adams is honored as a Founding Father due to her pervasive ideological and discursive influence upon the thought and action of the ruling male cohort (10 rulers).
Somana-yuti-Rahu receives Invigorating, discursive incoming drishti from
- Kuja-Azresas-4 lagnesha
- Budha-Azresas-4
Mom = Pragmatic risk-taker, Frugal, Organized, Intrepid Public Figure
Abigail Adams did not enjoy the southern social style of political entertainments in Washington D.C.,. Her New England personality found those activities to be impractical, time-wasting, frivolous.
Yet, during her son's presidential administration, when JQA's wife Louisa Adams was too ill to perform the expected social duties, mom AA traveled by bumpy horse-carriage - several by carriage days on bad roads - from Boston to Washington. At the Whitehouse, mom executed all of the necessary formal entertaining.
Elite Education = Somana-yuti-Rahu rules 4
- JQA received a similarly structured formal education to that of his father.
- JQA completed Harvard College age 20, and began a law practice in Boston.
When JQAs was a young boy, father John Adams began taking his young son abroad on European diplomatic missions representing the newly-established USA. JQA served as assistant and scribe.
- Dad told JQA to prepare to accept the mantle of national leadership, in order to ensure the impact of their moral principles upon the unsteady new nation.
MARRIAGE emotional support partnership
- Karkata bhava-4 home, caretaking, parenting, security, cultural foundations
Chandra-10 is often a mark of the Two-Person Career
- 10th-from-7th-from-Chandra (lifepartner) = bhava-1
- The spouse's professional identity is often inextricably insinuated into one's-own-self
- Although she could not and did not support his career in the way that his exalted mother had supported his reputable father, indeed Louisa Johnson Adams dedicated herself to her husband's career.
- JQA's lagnesha nichha-Kuja-yuti-Ketu-4 naturally twists his lifepartner's contribution to his career 10th-from-7th-from-Chandra = Karkata
the marriage alliance is challenged by
- nichha-Mangala-yuti-Ketu + Budha-yuti-Ketu residing in Karkata-4
- Azlesa-Budha-yuti-Ketu ++ Azlesa nichha-Kuja-yuti-Ketu occupy 7th-from-Chandra
- considerably deepening the themes of disconnection, anxiety (Azlesa) and mental disorientation = Budha-yuti-Ketu.
- in particular, Ketu occupying 7th-from-Chandra predicts a distancing, dismantling, dispersing, apathetic lifepartner
JQA married Louisa Johnson in 1797 in London.
- Mrs. LJA suffered a range of mental and physical ailments
- a capable mother who shifted their household internationally, on bad roads, via unreliable shipping, and in miserable weather, many times
- LJA disliked public roles.
- The social-mobility handicap that her dislike of public roles created
- perplexed JQA to the point of despair.
- JQA held a lifelong series of high-visibility executive and diplomatic roles ++ LJA usually travelled with him (two-person career)
- yet LJA tended to disconnect.
- She cared for their children, but her anxieties were debilitating.
- Nevertheless, Zukra-Singha-5 endows LJA with capacity for musical entertainment. She was a gifted harpist, and widely praised for this delightful asset.
When she was able to travel, JQA's elderly, frail mother Abigail Adams sometimes replaced LJA in social entertaining roles.
- JQA complained that he had to forego the wifely support which other public men received from their lifepartners.
- JQA's resentment of these perceived deficiencies only added to the legendary Adams-Family crankiness + complaining.
Despite tensions due to JQA's complaining nature, Louisa's Chandra-Karkata occupies JQA's 7th-from-Chandra = stability of the emotional bond.
- JQ would have been a rather testy fellow in any case, and Louisa would have needed to develop some strategies for minimizing his impact, such as frail health requiring seclusion.
- Observers noted that she never neglected her children, and that despite her husband's grousing, Louisa acquitted her social duties by delighting guests with her musical talents.
A difficult marriage nonetheless persists
- JQA's complaining increased as he aged.
- Louisa never completely abdicated
- She always lived with her husband and not separately.
- She outlived JQA but she did not remarry.

Budha in bhava-4 rules professional analytical argumentation = Kanya 10th-navamsha,
managing, conversational Budha in bhava-4 occupies the alliance-buildingequityequity-seeking, adjustable, diplomatic 7th-from-Chandra
USA North vs. South
After nearly two decades working as Minister to Russia and then USA Secretary of State, JQA was convinced that the conflicts between North-and-South could be resolved diplomatically.
Yet, Budha rogesha = slavery, disagreement
- Budha-yuti-Mangala can be caustic -- in Asresas = can express angry resentment
- Budha's argumentation = handicapped by the misapprehension and miscommunication = Budha-yuti-Ketu.
- Bantering Budha is further tasked with ownership of the overworked Surya-yuti-Shani-3 indicating demanding work schedules, intractable ego-bound discussions, a perfectionistic father, and perpetual delays in committee-work
SLAVERY = ABOLITION
Although his ability, insight, and preparation for elite leadership roles was perhaps the best of any POTUS in history, JQA's core issue remained his inability to compromise .
Historians overflow with praise of JQA's written works, which laid much of the jurisprudential foundation of the New Nation. Yet, JQA was unable to impose a clear legislative solution to the toxically divisive problem of slavery.
No-compromise anti-slavery morality
His southern governance colleagues complained that JQA did not understand the financial realities of the southern region's slave-driven large-plantation economy. Yet, JQA sustained his parents' cherished abolitionist (anti-slavery) principles without yielding to the financial arguments.
- JQA 's response to those who asserted that slaves were essential to good business was to retort that no reason could EVER justify slavery. His northern moralism angered and alienated many of his southern fellows but he would not change (Shani) this stalwart refusal.
Asresas-Budha-yuti-Mangala in mutual drishti with the governance mastermind Somana-yuti-Rahu-Makara-10
- An unswerving abolitionist for moral reasons (Chandra, parents) JQA refused to accept the argument that slavery was an essential and irreplaceable component of the American economy.
- However, the majority of Congress and the USA leadership were Southern planters who vigorously asserted the opposite.
- JQ was generally more successful in foreign diplomatic roles where moral abominations (Chandra) like slavery were not at issue.
In vulgar domestic political debates, Budha-yuti-Mangala-nichha, JQA was often verbally attacked.
during the vicious debates on slavery that plagued his career, JQA had
- moments of violent anger (nichha-Kuja)
- moments of logical clarity (Budha)
- moments of utter apathy (Ketu)

Guru in bhava-5 rules

- 12-distant lands, privacy, under-the-table deals, cloak of invisibility
Enlightenment Philosophy
JQA's social doctrine and political philosophy were highly politicized due to Guru-Simha.
- Like his father before him, JQA wanted the United States of America to be anchored in principles of legal justice,
- including a concept of inalienable human rights
- which eradicated the possibility that humans could be legally categorized as property.
Guru mahadasha * age 35.7 until age 51.7 (1804-1820)
JQA generally liked his career during his Guru Mahadasha.
Entitled, bright Guru-Simha with accommodating, diplomatic Zukra-Singha kept him traveling in the gracious salons of Europe = Guru rules 12-distant lands .
- While living in European capitals, JQA had access to universities (Guru). \
- Living in a series of embassy houses, entertaining the era's thought leaders and entrepreneurs of progressive viewpoint
- He participated in the intellectual-political culture of Enlightenment global humanism.
As soon as Shani Mahadasha began, JQA returned to USA to be POTUS-06. Almost immediately, the visionary inclusivity of Guru was oppressed by the harsh realities of Shani.

- which produced a remarkable mix of guiding ideologues (Guru) and diplomats (Zukra)
- The family included many inspirational and influential national leaders
Zukra-5 occupies shad-ashtakua 6/8 from Rahu
tricky circumstances of meeting the wife-figure
JQA was introduced to his wifeJQA was introduced to his wife Louisa Johnson in London (Guru rules 12 distant lands) where JQA was working as a diplomat (Zukra) on behalf of the baby-nation USA.
- JQA believed (12, imagination) that Louisa was the daughter of a prosperous London merchant.
- Louisa's father was supposedly an émigré American living in London whose treasuries (2) + relationships (7) would offer a considerable advantage to JQA's international career.
- JQA's father John Adams encouraged JQA to marry Louisa with all due haste (hasty Budha-yuti-Ketu).
Being of marriageable age, Louisa appeared at several parties. Without checking his facts (Guru rules dreamlike 12) JQA asked for her hand in marriage (7).
The offer was instantly accepted.
- ver-reaching information * Rahu occupies 6/8 from Zukraa
26-Jul-1797 (JQA age 30) exchange of marriage vows with26-Jul-1797 (JQA age 30) exchange of marriage vows with Louisa Catherine Johnson* Rahu-Zukra bhukti
- Unfortunately, the blurry impressions of 12 were soon clarified.
- Louisa's father had been on a downward slide in business.
- Louisa's father was in fact an impoverished London merchanttwhose speculative investments in American enterprises had failed.whose speculative investments in American enterprises had failed.
- Dad was not a financially privileged man nor much well-liked.
- Later historians have opined that he may have suffered a personality disorder which involved lying (Rahu 6th-from = criminal exaggeration.).
- There was no financial advantage to the alliance. In fact, JQA felt his wife and in-laws to comprise an unfair burden of personal responsibility.
JQA believed himself to have been tricked by misleading insinuations
Shani * duro-karaka (endurance) * jara-karaka (years)

economics and market systems,
Shani drishti to 5-ppolitics, entitlements
When the Adams Family needed to cooperate within the morally lax southern-dominated leadership cohort, they were often mocked as puritanically Northern abolitionists = comically preachy and rigid (Shani) from the Southern perspective.
Shani in Bhava-3 = Management Administration Committee-work
- Shani-Mithunaya 3 = an enduring stream of meetings, administrative details, and literary correspondence (3)
- Shani in Bhava-3 = obstructionist Congress (3-congress, parliament, discussion, salon).
Shani in Bhava-3 manufacturing, factories * North vs. South (again)
In planning for the nation's economic development, JQA promoted the manufacturing systems (3) of New England and the northern states.
- JQA's writings and public talks appealed to the freeholding northern voting base of manufacturers + small-farmers.
- However, his abolitionist planning was hated by the southern slave-dependent planters (4) such as POTUS-03 Declaration of Independence 1743-1826 Thomas Jefferson.
JQA faced legendary problems with his wife's family
Wife's father = 9th-from-7th-from-Chandra = Meena-12 hallucinations
- Louisa's father was a financial speculator whose misjudgment put him in chronic danger of severe consequences for unpaid debt.
- The Johnson in-laws also had various mental and physical illnesses, which JQA had to deal with.
- Despite JQA's complaining, Louisa remained staunchly loyal (Shani) to her father and her siblings
Shani Mahadasha * age 51.7 until age 70.7 (1820 until 1839)
JQA was elected POTUS-06 during Shani-Budha bhukti.
- He expressed great reluctance and dissatisfaction with this ultimate duty.
- tainted by the vulgarity of (soon to be) Jacksonian Democracy
- It seemed less and honor and more a heavily obstructed task (3 task).
- JQA often remarked that his earlier European career had been much more intelligent, politically meaningful, and balanced. (Guru + Zukra-Simha)
Shani abolitionism wins (eventually)
Like all things governing by Delay-Master Shri Shani, JQA's unmovable abolitionist stance took a long time to bear political fruit.
- Yet, in 1865 - forty years after JQA's presidency- a Constitutional Amendment was passed which finally freed the slaves.
- Eventually JQA's political philosophies and jurisprudence were fully implemented.
- During the administration of POTUS-16 Emancipation 1809-1865 Abraham Lincoln, human slavery was finally eradicated.
JQA endured a lifetime of polarizing catalysis from his same-age adversary, POTUS-07 Indian Removal 1767-1845 Andrew Jackson
- JQA's bitter opponent and successor Andrew Jackson was vigorously pro-slavery . Jackson staunchly denied the vile insinuation that the slaves had human rights.
- Jackson and his parochial supporters made vile accusations against JQA, who was simply appalled at their rudeness and had no defenses against the ruffians.
- The vulgarity of Jackson's administration (3) was so extreme that many educated observers despaired of decency ever being restored.
- It was a dark time in American politics.
Shani Mahadasha = heaviest workload + most exhausting duties
Shani is not combust.
The beginning of the Shani mahadasha marked a sustained 19-year bhukti of overwhelming responsibilities.
- During Shani-Shani svabhukti JQA was elected for a single term of POTUS-06.
- During Shani-Ketu bhukti, his father died (JQA age 59)
- in subsequent Shani years, JQA returned to the USA Congress and continued to work against slavery until he died, on the debating floor of Congress, in 1848. Eighteen years later (Rahu cycle) in 1864, Abraham Lincoln would finally abolish American slavery only a few months before his assassination.
Rahu * rajyalobha-karaka (ambition) * picchala-karaka (slippery)
- Rahu-Makara-Draco * shimmering illusion of dignity * craving for social status * mirage of legitimate authority * mask of hierarchy * over-reaching acts of institutional leadership * fascinating ascent to respected position * unorthodox methods of social ordering * extraordinary claims to statutory jurisdiction * extravagant elitism * thrilling seniority * seeks special importance via apparent (but perhaps not authentic) attributes of responsible governance * bossy pretense * seeks privilege via regulator-roles
- Rahu in bhava-10 * passion for leadership power * in svabhava of Sober Shani, the Shadowy Specter seeks privilege via glamorous executive decisions * thrilled by iconic status * craves symbolic importance * hungers for regulatory authority * outsider who cleverly insinuates into lawful governance * cleverly challenges official rules * mesmerizing ascent to high social status * may pose as a boss * shimmering smoky illusion of legitimate power * trespasses cultural limits of old hierarchies * boundary-breeching hunger for commanding roles * ambition for elite rank * desires to hold a respected position * opportunistic climb to top of the corporate pyramid * culturally-mixed reputation * ambition of the father's family
- Rahu-yuti-Soma * amplified emotion * magnified familiarity * exotic habits * tricky routines * opportunistic mother * fascinating (but perhaps illusory) appearance of sympathetic caretaking * hypnotic rhythms * emotionally attuned to cross-cultural mixing
Ketu kavandha-karaka (headless) * chidra-karaka (gaping) * vasana-karaka (vacuum)
- Ketu-Karkata * calmly dissociates from foundational habits * surrenders material security * placidly empty shelters * disregards conventional caretaking * not limited by customary routines * ignores restriction on farming-and-fishing * abandons owned property * forgives the ancestors * releases a soothing pink cloud of ancient rhythms into the misty abyss
- Ketu in classroom-9 * disinterested in credenda * wandering worldview * disengaged from faith doctrine * disregards theory * liberating philosophy * irrelevance of patriarchal dogma * ambivalence toward conventional convictions * spacey father * weird beliefs * ignores the ordinary understandings * incoherent ideology * unless other graha in 9, may prefer to live free from father-figures
- Ketu-yuti-Kuja * restless * surrendered championship * abandons fighting * inconsistent actions * disconnected brethren * odd innovations * unsustainable domination * apathetic competitions * peculiar disability * unfulfilled quest * pushes toward impermanence * incomplete births * liberation via vigorous movement
- Ketu-yuti-Budha * miscalculations * incoherent references * empty talk * unsustainable explanations * irrational statements * chats about non-existent events * spacey sibling-cohort * apathetic evangelism * incomplete details * witty misnomers * vacuous plans * unfulfilled deliveries * illogical messaging * liberation via mental surrender * for commercial nativities, may dissolve the cooperative team
Along with distinguished public leaders, JQA's family included some physically and mentally ill + alcohol addiction, and suicides (Guru rules 12). Challenged family members included
- the addicted and destructive lapsed-preacher uncle = brother of his mother Abigail Adams
- the two alcoholic short-lived and near-criminal brothers of JQA
- JQA's sister suffered from severe marital, health, and financial conflicts
- JQA's own two alcoholic, suicidal sons.
Two of JQA's sons died before their age 30 due to alcoholism and depression.
- 6th-from-Chandra contains Ketu + Budha + Kuja
JQA expressed little sympathy toward their suffering = Ketu in 7th-from-Chandra. He interpreted his sons' self-destructive traits not as emotional wounds, but rather as moral failings.
- JQA privately expressed frustration and even contempt toward his wife's (Karkata-4 contains Ketu) invisible ailments and the sickness of his family members.
- He declared himself unable to aid their distress, as he was too busy with public matters = Chandra-Rahu-10
Ketu occupies the equity-seeking, adjustable, diplomatic 7th-from-Chandra
The Ketu-Budha-Kuja-nichha cluster in bhava-9 created a repeating pattern of articulation, anger, and apathy.
Mangala in bhava-9 + Ketu surrender.
- Like his dad, JQA was a brilliant man, but he was not a happy man. JQA like dad was capable of forceful oratory, and ultimately an effective agent of political movement. However, they shared a, odd combination of vindictiveness mixed with apathy.
Ketu-yuti-nichha-Kuja un-binds the typical leashing-and-squeezing of Azlesa Mangala.
- Most people at the time believed in State's Rights as the basis of the Union
- JQA could not accept that State's Rights extended to placing people in bondage.
Budha-yuti-Ketu and Ketu-yuti-nichha-Kuja in 12th-from-Zukra suggests that his wife's vitality might be sapped (12) via ongoing mental confusion and emotional trauma.
- Louisa suffered ongoing and severe anxiety-depressions which often incapacitated her.
Budha-yuti-Ketu and Ketu-yuti-nichha-Kuja in the 7th-from-Chandra suggests that the parents (Chandra) encouragement of his marriage to Louisa resulted from errors in judgment (Ketu-Budha) due to lack of due diligence.
- The inquiry was incomplete (Budha-Ketu) and nichha-Kuja made the marriage decision seem urgent with emotionally-motivated impulse to act quickly to secure a situation.
- Kuja-Karkata acts decisively to bind and secure.
