Masculine Nativities

Bharani-Yamya

Yamuna * Apa-bharanishe * Varni

BPL commentary

For Bharani births of a masculine valence, the condition of sweetly musical, artistic, harmony-seeking, negotiating, balancing, diplomacy, designing, matching, pairing, sensually pleasuring akarshana-karaka Bright Beautiful Bhrigu may considerably affect the outcome.

Due to the definitive influence of kalatra-karaka Shukra, gentlemen born into the realms of Bharani-Yamya, Purvaphalguni-Yoni, or Pūrvāṣāḍhāmay find that their worldview is greatly shaped by the character of the feminine companion.

For those born into the Shukra-ruled paradigm of Yamya, feminine figures such as sisters, aunts, and wives, along with partnerships, sensual pleasures, arrangements, valuation, pricing, equity, bargains, trades, treaties, trusts, adjustments, justice, finance, artistic beauty, treasuries, alignment, attunement, harmonies, and music, may be especially influential.

Guidance provided by instructors from the civilizations of Apis. Their purpose is acquisition of treasuries, carrying of beautiful objects , and preservation of values across the generations.

Burdened Banker Busy Bee

Shukra-ruled Bharani masculine-figures are the Money Guys. Yamuna-born are often found in the worlds of banking, valuation, capital markets, currency-trading, mints and coinage. Connoisseurs of pricing and aggressive deal-makers, they vigorously seek acquisition of precious objects. In addition to their financial abilities, due to their intuitive understanding of sound-and-color values, Bharani males may also pursue careers in music and arts. Most Bharani men can sing beautifully.

The harmonious arrangements of Apa-bharanishe may be lovely even while they vigorously compete for dominance. Their expertise in the fields of preservation, containment, and collecting may extend to wines, perfumes, fine textiles, works of art, and any commodity which may capitalize or increase in value. Like all Shukra-governed births, they must take care to avoid the misuse of drugs and alcohol.

Themes of competitive acquisition, precious sounds and song, and investment in cherished values may contextualize Bharani's terrestrial experience. Applies also to Chandra in Bharani.

QUOTATION from Shil-Ponde. (1939). Hindu Astrology Joytisha-Shastra . p 79

"A very vital character,

  • a quality which quite often leads this individual into all sorts of trouble

  • because other people are apt to be jealous, resentful and antagonistic to him.

The morals of this man are not above reproach .

He will be distinguished in many cases by some slight physical defect

  • on the lower part of the body,

  • that is below the waist."

Randhresha Mangala in bhava-7 indicates Ida's camouflaged health issues, particularly her epilepsy

Ketu in 7th navamsha points toward a disconnecting spouse

Mrs. Ida Saxton McKinley was well-placed socially in her town, finely educated for her era, and had worked in her father's bank. ISM was 23 + WM was 27 when they married. Although beautiful, intelligent and an unfailing supporter of her husband's career, Ida suffered from fragile health both mentally and physically, including epilepsy.

Enduring an endless grief from the tragic early deaths of both of her daughters which coincided with the death of her mother, Ida was increasingly unable to attend public functions.

Her epilepsy and other health concerns were compassionately accommodated by her husband, who showed her every respect and affection in public. His finances might at times have been somewhat strained by his wife's condition

she would have been integrated easily into his large family of origin (2) and his religious ideology would also have smoothed any unevenness in their public presentation.

Shukra-yuti-Shani-yuti-Rahu cluster suggest that additional discrete involvements for Mr. McKinley may have obviated any marital unavailability. Most of Ida's expected social duties as the wife of a high official were carried out by various other ladies. She died quietly in 1907, a few years after her husband was killed.

Kingmaker Mark Hanna

McKinley's boss-friend by all accounts was the influential Ohio coal-and-iron businessman Mark Hanna. In the late 1900's in eastern Ohio++ western Pennsylvania, the marketplace was rapidly expanding for investment in mining and minerals. Hanna was pugnacious, controlling, and had big money.

Hanna paid all costs of McKinley's political campaigns, which freed McKinley from needing to discover what his electorate wanted . Hanna managed McKinley's career. With few exceptions, Hanna determined McKinley's voting and veto behaviors.

McKinley was considered by most of his peers and most later historians to have been sorely manipulated by Hanna and Hanna's cohort. In an age of cronyism, entire cohorts of financially privileged and ambitious men would hunt in packs in order to promote their commercial interests. These money-gangs often chose a puppet figure with a handsome face, an open heart, and a big smile, to legitimate their goals and enforce their policies

Shukra Maraka

After three years in POTUS dealing mainly with the proposed war, McKinley was doing a ceremony in Buffalo New York when he was shot by an anarchist at close range on 06-Sep-1901. Similar to the Kennedy Assassination in 1963, McKinley's assassination in 1901 is linked to the iron-and-steel cartels. McKinley was delaying the Spanish-American War and thus preventing a massive profit opportunity for the cartels. Kennedy was delaying the Vietnam War and thus preventing a massive profit opportunity for the cartels. The delay was expediently eliminated allowing the financially desired wars to ensue.

Rahu in bhava-9 Expedient Beliefs

When engaged in the behind-the-scenes Congressional negotiating process which resulted in a clever barely-legal way to authorize the appropriation of Hawai'i, WM expressed his cherished belief in Manifest Destiny.

Rahu-yuti-Shani ++ Shani-9 parivartamsha Guru-10 [nīcha]

Conflicted Administration sandbagged by Guru-Makara-Draco [nīcha]

Ideological "Principles" Masking Raw Greed * Profits of War

War consumes vast amounts of iron-and-steel.

Aside from being Hanna's patsy, McKinley was criticized for being too soft and too diplomatic, particularly when the war machine industrialists were anxious to begin the war in Cuba.

Naturally, it was the iron-and-steel men who smelled a profit. Most of McKinley's administration was consumed with the issue of USA intervention to liberate Cuba from its colonial owner, Spain. When the USA won, Philippines, Puerto Rico, Guam, and Cuba were ceded by Spain to USA.

While McKinley dragged his feet looking for diplomatic solutions [Shukra], the war-mongers accused him of spinelessness and lack of manly ambition. His Assistant Secretary of War at the time, soon to be POTUS-26 National Parks 1858-1919 Theodore Roosevelt, complained that McKinley has "no more backbone than a chocolate éclair".

Eventually McKinley acquiesced to the will of the war-profiteers, and a costly bloody Spanish-American war ensued. The expense of managing the acquired territories have dogged the national budget ever since. Shukra started a hundred-year debt

Although WM declared that these remote colonial areas would benefit greatly from joining the prosperous USA, they remained isolated and impoverished until the present time.
