BPL commentary
For Dhaniṣṭha births of a masculine valence, the condition of kinesthetic, direct, yang-energy, forward-pushing bhratru-karaka Mangala may considerably affect the outcome.
For those born into the Kuja-ruled paradigm of Vasava, brother-figures, warriors, hunters, athletes, dancers, champions, challengers, inventors, explorers, dis-coverers, engineers, drivers, drillers, diggers, exploders, aggressors, pushers, invaders, pursuers, competitions and battles may be especially influential.
Dhaniṣṭha-born often respond to a deep inner fear [Shani] which manifests as aggressive survival-driven competition [Kuja]. The result = orderly, direct, empowered, and dynamic structured action.
Instructional guidance is provided by emissaries from the civilizations of Delphinus. Their purpose is social engineering, economic competition, and achievement of dominant positions.
Hierarchical Power Climber
Kuja-ruled Vasu-born fellows endure acute Shani-Mangala tension. They are intensely competitive. In no uncertain terms, these men play to win. Goal-directed and often ruthless, their playing fields are typically located in the corporate-institutional hierarchies of Shani, where they strive for alpha-dominant positions.
Operating in orderly Shani-controlled environments of Makara and Kumbha, Vasu champions are surrounded by lawful, systematic, and often timid folks who rarely resist Hrsikesha's powerful ascent to the peak of the hierarchy.
Dhaniṣṭha + Sraviztha are a pair, similar to the Purva-Uttara pairs. Like genteel śrāviṣṭha, those born within Dhaniṣṭha are highly sensitive to rhythm, pace, and tone. They can develop successful careers in music and dance performance. When Dhaniṣṭha fellows choose an entertainment career, it is often full of drumming, loud singing, vigorous dance, sexual strutting, and dominated by men.
Unlike demure Soma-ruled śrāviṣṭha, those born into Kuja-ruled Dhaniṣṭha favor athletic, competitive movement. These men thrive where the blood-stirring beat of the war-drums is pulsing, energizing, and strong. They set high-achievement goals. Dhaniṣṭha are determined to win the contest, at any cost.
Makara pada 1-2 express Kuja's control of 4-lands-roots + 11-earnings. Pro-actively patriotic (4) and driven to achieve profits (11), they are often found in real-estate (4) education (4) agriculture (4) transportation (4) police + defense industry (4) minerals + mining (4) or in any marketplace where the path to economic gain (11) is open to Kuja's dominating, goal-oriented, competitive vigor.
Since Mangala activates a 6/8 pair, their Achilles Heel = economic protectionism (4-11). Outcome depends upon the character of Mangala.
Kumbha pada 3-4 express Kuja's control of 3-commerce + 10-leadership. Any commercial endeavor suits the pada 3-4 Hrsikesha-born, so long as they find a path toward governing power. Gifted in manufacturing (3) programming and process (3) sales-marketing (3) and all business functions, this breed competes aggressively for leadership.
Kumbha pada 3-4 = famed as dominating, irascible, intimidating personalities who may have been bullied in their youth. Their innovative actions may change the course of civilization. Since Kuja activates a 6/8 pair, their Achilles Heel = micro-management (3-10). Outcome depends upon the characteristics of Mangala. Like all Kumbha-born, their wealth expands via globalist, philosophical Brihaspati.
Themes of band-of-brothers, survival, vitality, forceful movement, controlled explosion, exploration, winning, pioneering, discovery, invention, drilling, penetration, invasion, intimidation , sexual pursuit, and conquest may contextualize Vasu's terrestrial experience. Incoming drishti from Kuja can mobilize their progressive, pioneering actions. Also applies to Chandra in Dhaniṣṭha
QUOTATION from: Shil-Ponde.(1939). Hindu Astrology Joytisha-Shastra. p 87
" Two entirely different types are born with Dhaniṣṭha rising.
It depends on the part of this asterism, which lies on the Rising Point, as to which type predominates.
-
The key notes of both are optimism and ambition .
They both have thick necks and heavy thighs.
-
But there the similarity stops."
[end quote] ...
Andrew Johnson in 1856, painted by William Brown Cooper
Johnson, a former tailor, was said to have been always impeccably dressed
eldest daughter of Andrew Johnson, Martha Johnson Patterson, served as the First Lady for her father. Her mother Eliza McCardle Johnson lived in a Whitehouse bedroom, but mom was too sick to entertain. Known as a pleasant but frugal hostess, Martha introduced a herd of milk-cows to pasture on the Whitehouse lawn.

POTUS-17 Reconstruction 1808-1875 Andrew Johnson
-
POTUS-17 Reconstruction 1808-1875 Andrew Johnson was profile-identified with his tailoring business. AJ gained a loyal frontier following as an advocate for the small-holder white tradesmen. These hard-scrabble folk lived mainly in poverty. Yet, they aspired to social mobility and wealth via acquisition of slave-labor. He argued for the Constitutional validity of the right to buy-and-sell human property. It was a popular belief among the low-whites, and AJ repeated it often, but the argument was flawed in principle. Rahu-10 kept AJ in elected elite governance positions until his death.

[begin quote] Known as " mud-sills" [lower-class people] Jacob and Mary Johnson were both employed at Casso's Inn, where Mary worked as a weaver and clothes washer, and Jacob was a hostler [horse-cleaner]. Jacob also was a militia Captain of Muster Division 20, a sexton for the Presbyterian Church, and a porter for the State Bank of North Carolina [chartered in 1811] . Jacob Johnson is also said to have been the sole bell toller in Raleigh.[end quote]
MOTHER
Mary Polly MacDonough [17-Jul-1783 –13-Feb-1856]
Mom was a washerwoman and seamstress-weaver. She lived in an outbuilding behind a local hotel [Chandra in classroom-12 hotels]
Class-conscious obligatory service roles [Shani in Bhava-6] casts a harsh survival drishti into Chandra-12.
- Laundering was considered a less than respectable trade, often held in contempt by higher-status citizens
- women working at inns and taverns were generally suspected of being involved with prostitution in the service of travelers.
Rulers of 1-3-4 occupy 8th-from-Chandra, suggesting that both AJ and his mom [Soma] were affected by the tumultuous conditions of the time, needing to suddenly change their identities, their business behavior, and their place of dwelling.
Due to Shukra-8 which provides her with contractual married rights
- [Vimala Yoga] protects Chandra-12 prevents undue harm to mom, despite her low status.
- AJ did not look like his siblings. It was rumored that AJ was not actually the son of the deceased purported father.
- AJ was reportedly much more outspoken, smarter, and quicker than his younger brother.
However, neither AJ nor his mom were constrained by the vagaries of public opinion.
- Like many pioneers who were annoyed by the wagging tongues of small-minded villagers, they moved West.
Shani drishti effects improve with age. Shani rules 10th-from-Chandra.
- Mom's circumstances improved when she left Raleigh and moved with AJ to Greeneville.
- As her son's tailoring business, real-estate portfolio, and political career flourished, she rose in dignity.
Upachaya [Shani in Bhava-6] drishti = effects improve with age.
- AJ's mother and AJ's wife were both vigilant, steady [Shani] supporters of AJ, their eldest son and only husband.

- Vrischika contains isolatedhard-working, class-conscious, in servitude, separative, stubborn [logistical-argumentative Anuradha-2] -navamsha-Kanya] [Shani in Bhava-6]
Eliza McCardle was 16 when she married Andrew Johnson age 18.
She was reputed as staunchly loyal to her Ulster-Scots people, change-resisting of classic Apalachian character, and determined to complete the duties that she had undertaken
- Shani-6 rules Shukra-8, conferring upon AJ a protective Sarala Yoga that benefits his somewhat secretive wife [Shukra] and also prevents him from harmful illnesses
- Eliza suffered from tuberculosis for decades, but she lived five months longer than AJ - supporting him permanently and persistently within the framework of her cultural-and-physical limitations.
[Shani in Bhava-6] represents Eliza in AJ's life. Their marriage endured many long separations[Shani] and likely substantial disagreement due to his Chandra-12 located in 6th-from-7
Yet they shared a Shani-ish common bond based in relentlessly hard work, shrewd pragmatism, earthy lifestyle, and perpetual service.
- At 17, AJ had moved to Eliza's town with already-provened tailoring handcraft skills.
- Eliza's father had been the town shoemaker.
- AJ and Eliza had deeplyshared roots in the small-trade classes.
With Eliza's support, AJ opened a garment shop in the town.
- His tailoring work was well regarded, and the shop prospered.
- After emancipation, AJ's former slave Dolly opened a successful bakery in the same shop building.
Shani ruling 9 indicates a guidance figure.
- In addition to teaching AJ how to write-read-cipher accurately, Eliza provided AJ with a lifetime of scripturally based spiritual guidance.
- Much of Eliza's spiritual viewpoint was fear-framed and punitive , due to Anuradha-double-Shani.
SHANI in 7th-from-Chandra
Endurance and retreat
AJ and Eliza were married for 56 years. They died within 5 months of each other.
Separation and obligation
- The couple had repeated, long separations
- The longest separation = during the Civil War, three-plus years of no contact 1861 until-mid-1865 = AJ's Shani-Shani svabhukti
AJ never once came home during the years 1861-1869. [his age 53 until 61]
- Eliza remained in Greeneville during most of AJ's multi-decade career, not accompanying him on political duties but remaining in touch by postal-railway letters.
- She did move into the Whitehouse when AJ became POTUS in 1865, after Lincoln's assassination.
- But due to poor health, Eliza stayed in an upper bedroom. Entertaining was delegated to her eldest daughter Martha.
The stated reason for their long and repeated separations [Shani] was geography from Washington D.C. To Greeneville
- Although it is now a modern highway commute of half a day, it was then a difficult and draining event .
- It could be dangerous and slippery to ride by carriage on rough rutted roads, and exceedingly threatening in the rain.
- Even when the railroads were built, there were still frequent - sometimes grisly - rail carriage accidents . AJ was nearly killed once when his train car derailed.
Suffering a multi-decade battle with tuberculosis, Eliza was often bedridden [Budha-7 rules 4 homebound]. She did not accompany AJ on his many political travels.
- following Lincoln's assassination, when AJ became POTUS-17, Eliza did move into the Whitehouse.
- Yet, Eliza stayed in her bedroom for AJ's entire term of office.
- Their adult daughters hostessed for the required social entertainments.
OUTCOMES - CHANDRA
Chandra rules businesslike communicative explanatory 3rd-from-Chandra
- AJ was not the great healer who was truly needed in that awful chaotic era full of seething wounds and distrust of brother by brother.
- His leading focus was always upon that great truth of Euro-American society, the primacy of commerce.
Due to behind-the-scenes finance {Urisha-12] AJ's bring slavery back treachery [12 invisible machinations] was not punished.
- [Sarala Yoga] and [Vimala Yoga] both prevented his impeachment.
For career purposes, Chandra-12 can form the basis of an excellent professional position, because 10th-from-Chandra = bhava-9.
- When career is defined by 9-amsha, leadership typically entails beliefs, sacred teachings, university life, or ideological environments.
For AJ, who had a somewhat crude personality [Arudra] the career was framed by confident, expansive ideological discourse in the form of his oversimplified self-taught frontier lawyer's understanding of Constitutional Law.
- His personal leadership style was highly popular [Kumbha] within his specific social bubble
Guru-Kumbha is populist, a preacher of economic theory, and optimistic about marketplace expansion
- for the final 30 years of his life AJ never lost a political election
