Rising Nakshatra

Masculine Public-Figure Examples

Kṛttikā - Pleyades

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.

[Vrishabha - Urisha] -pada-2-3-4 express the tension between two-party bargainer Shukra 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 Kṛttikā - Pleyades

CAREER - SPARKLING SURYA

bandesha-4 [Surya in bhava-6]

JKP and his devoted wife were both ambitious slave-plantation owners. Their parents were also early-generation pioneers who believed that slave-owning = economic necessity as well as a political entitlement.

JKP and SCP acquired ever more land and slaves throughout their two-person career. Enslaved humans, in JKP's legal view = a category of agricultural property.

FATHER's General scrappiness

Although he became a dominating patriarch, Dad was irascible and often in violation of the law [Surya in bhava-6] After receiving his law license, JKP's first job was to defend his dad against a charge of public fighting.

Land agent = Surya in bhava-6 nicha bandesha

Samuel Polk = influential, slave-owning farmer, surveyor, and land-speculator. [Surya bandhesha = land ownership, defended properties]

• The general practice of bargaining for land was deeply corrupt. [6, illicit, bribery, corruption of equity] Typically a "land agent" would negotiate with a tribal chief to "authorize" [Surya] transfer of ownership.

Compounded by randhresha

= [nīcha-Uttarāṣāḍha- Guru-yuti-Ketu -Vaishva] in pitristhana

Due to basic incommensurability between no-fences hunter-gatherer culture versus vigorously fenced Euro-agriculture, thousands of acres might be "purchased" from a native representative for some blankets and a bottle of whiskey.

• The role of the frontier Land Agent and the nīcha-Guru legalistic [not jurisprudentially legal] "signed land deed" racket was grossly unfair, exploitive in the extreme, moderately dangerous, and [potentially] immensely profitable.

FATHER's political linkage

The Polk clan were large and politically dominating in early-1800's Maury County, Tennessee.

Dad was the second-cousin of both slave-labor planter POTUS-04 James Madison and POTUS-12 Zachary Taylor

Both Samuel Polk and JKP's paternal grandfather Ezekiel Polk, were supporters of fellow surveyor and slave-labor planter, POTUS-03 Thomas Jefferson .

• Samuel Polk became richly entreasured via slave-labor plantations, land speculation [asserting the right to possess and sell the lands of the indigenous hunter-gatherer peoples] various trading businesses, and his robustly helpful political connections.

PATRONAGE of POTUS-07 Andrew Jackson

JKP's political career was publicly perceived to fully depend upon Jackson's patronage to the entire Polk clan.

After moving into Tennessee territory, the Polk family socialized richly with fellow Tennessean POTUS-07 Andrew Jackson

Populist war-hero Jackson mentored JKP from early days. In the public discourse, Jackson was called "Old Hickory" and JK-Polk was called "Young Hickory".

As a member of TN-Congress - which chose federal senators -- JKP's influence propelled Jackson into the USA-Senate.

The family of Sarah Childress were also close to Jackson, whom Sarah called "Uncle Andrew" in her childhood.

Expedient Morality Rhetoric [Somana-yuti-Rahu-3]

JKP evoked the idea - soon to become a policy doctrine - of Manifest Destiny. He asserted that the Biblical God was mandating and guiding the Euro-settlers' western expansion and forced evacuation of the native peoples. He also over-reached in moral messaging about slavery.

The dehumanizing exploitive practice of human enslavement was Rahu-reframed as a moral mandate [Chandra]. According to JKP, who owned plantation slaves as did his father, the owners of these meek agricultural workers should protect, house, cloth, and feed them well, and provide some religious instruction [3].

However, slaves were legal property and could be bought-and-sold as needed [3, commerce]

QUOTATION from millercenter.org

" Never having children, Polk had no family life as President other than what Sarah would arrange for him. His family was politics, and he pursued it relentlessly. One biographer writes that aside from politics, Polk " had no aspirations, intellectual interests, recreation, or even friendships. He once described himself as the hardest-working man in Washington, and even his political enemies marveled at his ability to accomplish so much on a daily basis."

OUTCOMES - RISK-REWARDING RAHU

Manifest Destiny = The Defining Dogma of the 1840's

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Manifest_destiny [Punarvasu-Rahu-yuti-Soma-Pushya]

[nīcha] Guru-yuti-Ketu expands the misconceptions

His [Chandra-yuti-Rahu-3] suggests an ideologue driven by a concept of ancestral [Chandra] privilege. Indeed Polk and most of his peers were mesmerized [Rahu] by the philosophy [9] of Manifest Destiny. This doctrine neatly justified [in their minds] the annihilation of the Red Race and the subjugation of the Black Race in North America as the white, agriculturalist Euro-Americans settled [Chandra] rapidly across the " unclaimed" continent.

The folk dogma of Manifest Destiny lost its credence as its utter lack of legal or scriptural support made it unsustainable. However, in Polk's day, Manifest Destiny = widespread passionate ideology and Polk = deep believer.

His Chandra-yuti-Rahu-9 describes the passionate beliefs of the day including Manifest Destiny. His wife Sarah is represented by 7th-from-Chandra

= [nīcha] Guru-yuti-Ketu. Her materialistic [nīcha] Guru] interpretation of Biblical scripture produced a culture of no-alcohol no-dancing no-games austerity which sobered her political entertainments. Nevertheless " Sahara Sarah" earned respect for her devotion to her husband's political career [Guru vidya-pati-5 politics] . After his death age 53, sarah remained a widow-wearing-black for 40 years.

• [Ketu-yuti-Guru] misunderstandings * unsustainable convictions * abandons empty theories * believes in non-existence * vacuous catechism * wandering teachers * apostasy * wisdom of surrender * incomplete comprehension * doctrines of impermanence * Other-Worldly viewpoint * walks away in disbelief * liberating philosophy * for wifely Learners, Ketu may release the धव कारक ;dhavakaraka husbandly-companion.

OUTCOMES - EVACUATING KETU

The Polk marriage was dignified by Sarah's display of strict Prebyterian piety [nīcha-Guru, doctrinal faith becomes a public status-symbol] However, Ketu indicates apathy, absence, and separations.

[Ketu-Makara-Draco] in 7th-from-Chandra

= long marital absences due to governance duties

Ketu in classroom-9] in 7th-from-Chandra meant that the couple spent a majority of their adult lives living distantly. JKP was elected to the Tennessee legislature at age 27. He was required to live in the capital Murphreesboro while government was in session.

At age 29, with help from his patron and friend of both families, POTUS-07 Andrew Jackson -- JKP was elected to the Federal Congress in Washington-DC. His carriage-rides home over muddy rutted roads would have consumed several days each way of dangerous work-commute.

Although she did entertain in Washington-DC during the Social Season, capable manager Sarah Childress Polk then returned home to run their Tennessee slave-labor plantations.

JKP's was deeply identified with his work [Shani-1] and his duties seemed endless. Sarah Childress Polk also expressed a preference for time alone, and quiet for private prayer. Even when they physically lived in the same house, JKP's work schedule and Sarah's contemplative life combined to create prolonged absences of the mind.
