Hasta-Savitri * Athram
BPL commentary
For Hasta births of a masculine valence, the condition of reflective, sheltering, undulating, rhythmic, routinized, culturally rooted, boundary-defending, security-seeking, nourishing, parental, matrikaraka Chandra may considerably affect the outcome.
For those born into the Soma-ruled paradigm of Pundarikaksa, mother-figures, protectors, guardians, elemental spirits, natural environments, waters, roots, eggs, gardeners, farmers, fisher-folk, caretakers, foundation-builders, police, schoolteachers, parents, providers of nourishment , and defenders of the root culture, may be especially influential.
Instructional guidance provided by emissaries from the civilizations of Corvus. Their purpose= making secure nests to soothe, protect, and nourish the workers.
Careful handling
Savitra-born fellows are often found in handcraft trades, home-building and real-estate, in caretaking and protective roles, or in specialties of nourishment, sheltering, schoolteaching, policing, or local safety. Their purpose is supporting the local welfare. Typically masculine births in Hasta indicate a comfortable, grounded focus into the home realms including parenting, gardening, and environmental care.
All four pada occur within Kanya rashi. Athram-born express the tension between the handy busy-ness of mental, commercial Budha versus the emotionally based, calming routines of non-verbal Chandra.
Known for their skillful handwork, Hasta are found in service professions where daily communications and family-style conversations are engaged in a routine of protective, sustaining care.
Hasta chaps are socially reliable and available emotionally due to Chandra influence. This nice combination wins them many friends and long-term business customers. Hasta are specialists in customer care. Once they have established a relationship whether personal or professional, the Athram-born values consistency and loyalty.
Generally not risk-takers unless Rahu is prominent in the nativity. Hasta fellows tend to be engaged parents, restaurateurs, home builders, social workers, home health nurses, protection officers, schoolteachers, and supervisors of caretaking operations. Although their own family usually comes first, Hasta are concerned with the well-being of their complete natural and social environment.
Themes of manufacturing and handcraft, local business, housing and shelter, nourishment, and protective service may contextualize Hasta's terrestrial experience. Applies also to Chandra in Hasta-Savitra
QUOTATION from Shil-Ponde. (1939). Hindu Astrology Joytisha-Shastra .p 83
"...clever, witty, and entertaining.
They like social contacts
-
and are particularly fond of the company of the opposite sex.
When in trouble, go to a Hasta person;
but do not try to pull the wool over their eyes,
-
as they are extremely clever
-
and will see through any deceit
they are very likable and are good company,
-
but never very attractive physically ."
Earliest known photo (daguerreotype) of Abraham Lincoln c. 1847, preparing to enter his first term in USA Congress, AL age 38
according to the collective Ra, the version of AL who assumed the crucial POTUS responsibilities was a walk-in from 4th density who assumed control of abandoned Lincoln's body-complex. The body was deteriorating quickly due to glandular imbalances and the long-term effect of having been kicked on the left side of his face by a horse as a boy.
Lincoln age 49 in 1858 = left-side face damage with down-slipping eye and jaw.
A Lincoln volunteered to serve in the Blackhawk War on the Euro-settlers' side. AL did not see active combat, but he was elected company leader and participated in burying the dead.

Distinctive features of the nativity

POTUS-16 Emancipation 1809-1865 Abraham Lincoln * revolutionary oratorical randhresha Mangala-2-Tula yuti Rahu-2 in 10th-from-Chandra
-
Lincoln entered the US presidency in 1860 saying that he had no intention of destroying the livelihood of planters, but toward the end of the horrors of the USA Civil War his Ketu-4 showed its disregard of consequences by doing it anyway (Mesha-4, unboundaried movement in the homeland). Although legally rectifying (Mangala-Tula-10) a heinous social injustice, the resulting sudden slave emancipation almost instantly destroyed the year-round production of the agricultural system of the American South.
- The Emancipation Proclamation allowed what Karl Marx called "the means of production" (the slaves) to walk off their enslaved jobs. It plunged an entire class of slave-owning Southern farmers into dire poverty . Because the Emancipation Proclamation made no provision for the education, protection, or social integration of the liberated slaves (Ketu-4, formless, thoughtless), it plunged the slaves into starving homelessness as well. The bitter foundational (4) acrimony between North and South has not Yet, healed.

FRUSTRATING FATHER
Dad = a land speculator of fluctuating fortunes (Surya speculation) with big ideas, whose visions of grandeur occurred mainly in dad's imagination (Surya activates 12).
AL recounted that Dad was unforgivingly harsh Surya in bhava-6 and economically minded always. Surya-Kumbha
Dad was said to have been harsh and dominating toward everyone, including his son
-
Chandra in 12th from Surya = dissolution of father's empathy.
- Surya activates 12 imagination, invisibility, Other Worlds
AL remarked that his father could be a predatory bully; and had it not been for the gentle and generous ministrations of his father's second wife (2nd-from-Surya = Guru-yuti-Shukra [uchcha]) there might have been worse consequences.
Dad was willing [Surya] to harass and exploit his son.
- Recollections of those who knew Abe (notably from the Herdon Collection) recall that
- dad did not like Abe
- shouted at Abe
- thought Abe was lazy because Abe was always reading.
- In addition to Abe's expected daily toil on his home farm.,
- Dad regularly sent Abe to work as a servant on other farms.
- Dad kept the money earned.
Surya-yuti-Budha = Budha lagnesha + karmesha, suggesting that both dad and Abe would be capable of making executive decisions.
Dad's emotional volatility = Surya in bhava-6 rules the emotionally catastrophic, sudden-transformations 8th-from-Chandra = Simha-12..
AL's father experienced many upheavals including widowhood (8) and disastrous financial loss from opportunistic land speculation gone wrong
- Dad spent much of his life fighting legal battles (6) over land-ownership deeds of title
- which were often found to be forgeries, purchases claimed but never paid, fraudulent transactions, or documents improperly written [Budha] *
- Occasionally dad also had windfall profits in the wild-west land-grab marketplace [Kumbha] but these were far-between and short-lived.
Dad was pragmatic but not always honest.
Surya's charismatic authority is weakened in Shani-ruled Kumbha. Surya in Kuja-ruled Dhaniṣṭha nakshatra can indicate a dominating bully, Surya-Kumbha = reputed for a reduced concern with personal integrity (such as the honesty underlying a promise).
STEP-MOTHER = 12, ruled by Surya
After the tragically premature death of his mother (his age 9) and his father's sudden remarriage (his age 10) AL formed a successful life bond with his stepmother.
Revolutionary, emotionally turbulent, perpetually transformative, trauma-inducing 8th-from-Chandra =bhava-12 containing Surya + lagnesha Budha. Due to the protective power of [Vimala Yoga] , Lincoln's stepmother became an invisible (12) supporter of his identity (1) and career (10). Abe credited his stepmother with supporting his legal career (Budha karmesha) and giving him the will to succeed (Surya).

CHANDRA - CAREER
Chandra in Śrāvaṇa-Hari * The Listener * accepts accepts drishti from Mangala-2 + drishti from Shani-3
AL was hardworking and often ill = Shani-3 + Kuja-2 drishti upon Chandra-5
Comforting Chandra activates 11-gains, community, mass-movements, social networks
The preponderance of the Civil War and the abolition of slavery often overshadows the substantial work that AL performed toward modernizing the USA economy (11) specifically via improving transportation [Karkata].

Less compatibly, MTL's wild Arudra-Chandra occupies the incompatible 6/8 from AL's cautious Śrāvaṇa-Chandra.

- MTL's businessman father wished to promote Abe as a regional-to-national politician.
- Mary is said to have worked assiduously in support of AL for the sake of her marriage but also to please her father
- Although her widow's pension might have been attractive to a potential second husband, MTL never remarried .

First Family = Kuja-yuti-Rahu-Tula-2
AL often mentioned his struggles with his family of origin.
- Kuja-yuti-Rahu-Tula-2 where Kuja activates 3 + 8 suggests constant churning
- ++ Bhava-6 Surya-yuti-Budha occupies 2nd-from-Chandra = the family and its lineage values-fulfillment = criminal, exploitive, unfair

- AL lived before the age of electricity.
- Yet, his public addresses to the citizens, to the Civil War Troops, and to member of Congress were so compelling that they covered in detail by the newspaper media
- His rhythmic collocative vocabulary (3 phrases) became standard references in American political discourse.
Kuja-yuti-Rahu drishti to Chandra * compelling, urgent, direct, rhythmic speeches
AL said that his mother (Chandra-rhythm) home-schooled him using the only available text, the King James English Bible. AL repeated the classic and familiar KJV prosody. He internalized the rhythms [Chandra] of 1600's English litany.

a gifted broker Kuja-yuti-Rahu-Tula occupies 10th-from-Chandra leadership
- The rough, gaunt, rural-mannered, self-taught attorney Lincoln was a dark horse [Rahu] candidate for POTUS-16.

As a virtually unknown Illinois Congressmember, extreme outsider [Rahu] Lincoln won the USA national election for POTUS-16.
Kuja-yuti-Rahu--2 resides in emotionally-motivated leadership = 10th-from-Chandra
- The rough, gaunt, rural-mannered, self-taught attorney Lincoln was a very unlikely dark horse candidate for POTUS-16
- Yet, the nation was desperate for a bold opportunistic [Rahu] personality who could bring agreement between the bitterly warring North and South factions.
Thula the Bargainer pays the price
Lincoln remains one of the most beloved USA presidents because his Kuja-yuti-Rahu empowerment brought an end to the terrible brother-against-brother fighting of the Civil War.
- Massive casualties and widespread carnage had become the new normal.
- Hatred, bitterness, and despair filled the land.
-
POTUS-18 Civil War 1822-1885 Ulysses S. Grant had a Visaka tolerance for extreme killing.
- Grant's Tula indriya-lagna matches Lincoln's Thula Kuja-yuti-Rahu

In the early decades of the 1800's while the Euro-pioneers were driving the hunter-gatherer native populations off the land and carving out subsistence farms in the dense wilderness of the Indiana Territories, Lincoln's childhood (4) was wandering [Ketu]. The family relocated often = Ketu gets Kuja-drishti.Walk-In's Welcome
According to the social-memory complex resonating to the syllable known as Ra http://www.llresearch.org, POTUS-16 was a psychic walk-in.
Arising to the top of the new Republican Party, seemingly out of the ethers of the Illinois wilderness
the persona of Lincoln produced a wave of surprising wisdom [Guru] and prosodic grace that overwhelmingly, positively, dramatically appealed greatly to an exhausted, demoralized, war-weary electorate.
By the beginning of Shani Mahadasha, the extreme makeover was complete.
Guru-Mangala bhukti 1853 * Kuja activates 8-identity transformation
1853 according to Ra, this year featured a walk-in from 4th density who assumed control of Lincoln's body-complex * Guru-Ketu bhukti
Ra reports that Lincoln was suffering from a debilitating illness, along with mental disorientation, depression, and marital conflict.
- He was ready to abandon his life [Ketu].
- Psychically, he asked for permission to exit the incarnation.
- This permission was granted on the condition that he would permit his fleshbody to complete its allocated lifespan of 56 years..
Repeating the denouement experienced 10,000 years previous in the Atlantean civilization, a collective social decision about slaveryry was imminent. This decision would be finalized via one of the most gruesome wars of human history. This decision would be emblazoned upon public memory for centuries.
In cooperation with this momentous agenda, before beginning his dark-horse campaign for POTUS-16, Mr. Lincoln's original personality exited his fleshbody and, by spiritual agreement, a specifically purposed replacement personality entered. The replacement personality was indeed an extension of his original self, but with more energy, more vision, and more guidance.
The obscure Congressmember from Illinois, Abraham Lincoln, had no widely recognized political identity.
Hence, it was relatively easy for the incoming spirit to transform the persona of a stuttering rural horseback-lawyer into an eloquent literature-quoting public orator.
- Not every element of the replacement was perfectly tuned.
- For example, Lincoln (who likely had chronic thyroid disease) was said to have spoken with a reedy, high-pitched voice which belied his long-legged tall frame
That certainly was a sudden change.
The assassination of Abraham Lincoln took place at the appointed time of exit.
- Immediately following the extreme bitterness and hatred of the American Civil War, his violent death at the hands of a slavery-supporter marked the final pinnacle of national grief.
- At the point of Lincoln's highly symbolic death, the land was totally saturated with sorrow. There could be no more fighting.
- The grief of a nation had finally overpowered its anger.
Although the Agents of Orion were not pleased, Lincoln's dematerialization effectively ended the post-Atlantean (American) debate about institutionally legalized slavery.
Recent medical research gives some credence to Ra's claim about Lincoln's suicidal despair. It is now understood that, during AL's era in history, the conditions of his genetically caused illness would have very likely resulted in a lifespan ending approximately at the time of the political assassination (AL age 56).
