BPL commentary
For Pushyami births of a masculine valence, the influence of rigid, chronological, lawful, enduring strictly structural sober serious systematic Shani can considerably affect the outcome.
For those born into the Shani-ruled paradigm of Vutkrita, elder persons, old rules, rigid structures, age and time, resistance to change, status hierarchies, social class barriers, large organizations, public opinion, bureaucracies, regulatory requirements, legal systems, and corporate or institutional officials may be especially influential.
Instructional guidance is provided from the civilizations of Asellus. Their purpose is the lawful, hierarchically ordered maintenance of the customary folk habits in the place of settlement.
Laws and Customs
Shani-ruled Pushyami gentlemen are often found at the director level of government, corporate, and institutional organizations. They combine the local sensibilities of security-seeking Chandra with the larger structural, legal frameworks of national and international regulation. Deeply patriotic and defensive by nature, Sidhya-born usually remain close to their roots while they obtain respected, socially recognized positions in institutions, bureaucracies, and agencies of government.
Sidhya-born are influential in the world and reputed for their culturally sensitive judgment. Found in all of the Chandra-karaka areas such as transportation, farming and fishing, home-building and real-estate, schools, houses of worship, and parenting, Tishya-born feel close to the land. Yet, they are socially responsible, and usually elect to serve as judges, directors, or other official roles (Shani) that provide an orderly process (Shani) for governance of their place of settlement.
Pushyami may specialize in cultural boundary-protection, making of reserved areas both social and natural, lawful preservation of ethnic practices, and legal recognition for cultural minorities. Tisya fellows are particularly dedicated to environmental protection, land ownership, and property rights.
Themes of parental duty, civic responsibility, patriotism, dignity of the family, and foundational legal protections may contextualize Pushya's terrestrial experience. Applies also to Chandra in Pushya-Sidhya.
QUOTATION from Shil-Ponde. (1939). Hindu Astrology Joytisha-Shastra. p 82.
"An earnest, thoughtful character,
intelligent and quite religious in his outlook.
Quite often a regular attendant at church services
and a supporter of church and religious activities.
Withal, he is possessed of the qualities which make for success in the material world,
and has the ability to rise in position
and to command the respect of his associates.
He will fill a position of executive requirements
and be admired and respected by his immediate family."

POTUS-31 Challenge to Liberty 1874-1964 Herbert Hoover
Hoover age 23 Perth, Australia, in the mining fields
archives.gov/publications/prologue/2004/summer/hoover-1.html
"Usually cast as a President defined by his failure to contain the Great Depression, Hoover's story is far more complex and more interesting.
To begin with, Hoover was an activist reformer, albeit one without the political skills needed to sell himself and his programs to Congress and the public.
A shy man, he insisted on keeping much of his life and good deeds out of the public eye. Only in politics is this a character flaw, Yet, it prevented those around Hoover from portraying him as a compassionate leader, or warding off portrayals of him as a cold, uncaring figure responsible for nearly everything that was going wrong in the American economy.
As a result, Hoover's presidency remains largely an untold story.
It began when Calvin Coolidge chose not to run for a second term in 1928. Hoover, then secretary of commerce (and joked Washington wags, "assistant secretary of everything else") made no secret of his interest in succeeding Coolidge.
Few men seemed so prepared for the nation's highest office.
After all, he had fed Belgium, run the U.S. Food Administration for Woodrow Wilson, revolutionized the Department of Commerce, and ministered to victims of the Mississippi River flood.
More realistic than Woodrow Wilson, more respectable than Warren Harding, more imaginative than Calvin Coolidge, Hoover appeared an ideal candidate.
Few Americans asked whether the Great Engineer had a political temperament."

What happened to The Great Engineer?
Hoover is generally ranked among the worst-performing presidents by historians and economists. Any of the general public old enough to remember or have heard stories of the Great Depression tend to disparage his name. The primary complaint = he did not act when there was still time to act.
Nichha-Zukra mahadasha + Shani bhukti apparently paralyzed him. Shani does not act. Shani resists action.
The second complaint = despite his widely documented 3xecutive abilities, a resentful blaming Hoover declined to accept any governance roles under POTUS-32 or POTUS-33. Thus a highly able leader stubbornly refused to help a nation in need during nearly 20 years of self-exile. at the peak of his capabilities.
The third complaint = Hoover became a rogue broadcaster promoting the Nazi regime of Germany-Nazi 1889-1945 Reichskanzler Adolf Hitler as an effective tool against communism while relentlessly attacking POTUS-32 Fireside Chats 1882-1945 Franklin D. Roosevelt.
Hoover might have suffered from Borderline personality disorder associated with the tragic early deaths of his parents.

MARRIAGE relationships support expectations
7th-from-Chandra-1Chandra-1 mutual aspect to Shani-7
Hoover would have been a challenging marriage partner due to the complex of graha near Chandra, represented inter alia the early emotional wounding of his parent's premature deaths. His disciplined, steady, sober, and mature wife is represented by Shani-Makara-7
Chandra-Karkata = patriotic and parental. Yet, the personal attachment to security and comfort may be constrained by regulating, contract-bound Makara Shani's overarching concern for the social law and social order.
Shani-Makara in 7th-from-Chandra represents Hoover's primary advisers, including his remarkable wife Lou Henry, who were generally conservative in their counsel.
Also bhava-5 represents the redoubtable Lou Henry Hoover = 3rd-from-3rd publications. Hoover himself has no graha in bhava-3 Yet, he is purportedly the author of more than 30 books including detailed translations from other languages. With his Ketu-2 is rather unlikely that he would have dedicated the time needed to produce painstaking translations. It is more likely that the majority author of most of his literary works is actually Mrs. Hoover.

Pushya-Mangala-mutual aspect to change-resistant Shravana-Shani. Mangala is prevented from moving forward as quickly as desired. Lawful restraint.
Mangala ruler of 8 and 8th-from-8 is a notoriously challenging agent for the Kanya nativity. Hoover's Kuja is not only nichha, but also Kuja is paired with hostile Budha.
Kuja is also suffering the ashtagata-dosha so that Kuja's outgoing energy rays are crippled by the self-righteous forces of politics and drama (burned by Surya).
Before 1929, Hoover enjoyed 20 smooth years of Zukra Mahadasha. Involved in high-profile programs like food distribution in war-torn Europe, Hoover was very busy, very visible, and due to his investments in international mining operations, also very wealthy. He was known as The Great Engineer. His reputation, crafted by political spinners but also based in a solid record of measurable achievements, was framed as a career of bold innovation and exploration (Mangala) mixed with business skill (Budha) patriotism (Chandra) and alpha-male leadership (Surya).
Rahu-8 in 10th-from the Karkata-11 complex provides the ambition albeit Rahu is controlled by Mangala and Mangala is nichha.
Mahadasha of Azlesa-Surya expresses nichha Kuja rules 3-8 and Rahu-8. The upheaval was violent and bitter.
At his age 56, during Surya-Mangala-nichha bhukti, gochara Rahu transited into Meza-8, signaling the Rahu-Return craving for emergencies and upheaval. The Great Depression had started with apparently no warning and the nation was suddenly gripped by uncontrollable terror of starvation and social collapse.
Surya rules 12-invisibility. Kuja rules 8 and 8th-from-8. Shani rules 6. The Surya-Surya, Surya-Mangala, and Surya-Rahu bhukti were the worst. While many called for aggressive economic interventions, Hoover took sanctuary (12). Surya Mahadasha 1930-1936 was was lethargic (12, sleep). As gochara Shani moved into Makara-5 in Apr-1931 (Shani-5 stiff resistance to political charm) the nation went from boom to bust .
Delayed Action while Rahu-8 churns
The markets swung up and down, recovering somewhat in early 1930 only to crash again, with worldwide financial depression evident by the lowest part of the collapse in June 1932 during Surya-Rahu.
Folks were overcome with despair. During Surya-Kuja and Surya-Rahu, Hooverville slums full of destitute unemployed arose near every town and city.
In the eyes of many, Hoover bore personal responsibility for the spiraling economic (11) crisis of the Great Depression and the colossal scale of misery that it brought. He was blamed and accused - nichha-Mangala, nichha-Zukra.
Even after he lost re-election, Hoover retaliated twith a seven-year volley of vitriolic attack upon the policies and character of POTUS-32 Fireside Chats 1882-1945 Franklin D. Roosevelt and his New Deal safety-net program. Rather than admit the scope of the problem and suggest solutions, Hoover criticized, complained, and defended his failed actions while aggressively defaming the New Deal domestic antipoverty aid programs as socialist and communist in motive. Formerly a shining star, The Great Engineer was ostracized from government for seven years.
Chandra-Surya-Budha also afflicted by the contrariwise nichha-Kuja ruling Mix-Master Rahu-8 and broadcast 8th-from-8th
Surya mahadasha transitioned into Chandra Mahadasha in 1936 when Hoover was still a young 62. A man of striking organizational ability who could have been an elite leader during the economic recovery deployment and subsequent buildup to WW-2, Hoover was instead a man-without-portfolio in the USA government during 1932-1939. He was granted no authority. When invited to advise working committees, he refused.
Instead, under influence of the nichha-combust-randhresha Kuja, and Surya ruling 12 foreign lands, Hoover traveled to Germany independently, socialized with Germany-Nazi 1889-1945 ny-Nazi 1889-1945 Reichskanzler Adolf Hitler and his colleagues, and broadcast forceful radio speeches claiming that the Nazi regime and the Stalinist regime should fight it out between themselves. USA intervention in Europe's problem (including the holocaust atrocities) was in Hoover's view unjustified. Any USA alliance with Russ-Soviet 1878-1953 Man-of-Steel Josef Stalin would open the floodgates, spilling the demonic horrors of anti-democratic communism throughout the world.
Considered a pariah by all but a few ideological devotees, Hoover had minimal subscribers during his Chandra Mahadasha (age 62-72). However, his anti-Stalinism crusade was better supported during his Mangala Mahadasha age 73-80. By the onset of Rahu Mahadasha in 1953, anti-communist rhetoric had become a standard of American politics, his public image as a defender of the American Way of Life was somewhat rehabilitated
Famous for his lifelong commitment to children.

Hoover had built up a tremendous reputation for successful management of large operations, and in the Nov-1928 election he enjoyed a massive landslide win. Perceived as the very icon of farm values, hands-on management, and moral integrity, Hoover started office in March, 1929.
In a time of flaunting luxury, ostentatious displays of wealth, and notorious lifestyle excess of the 'rentier' class, Hoover was elected on a platform of reducing government waste. The political evangelists proclaimed his proven ability to handle large-scale life sustenance.
Having brought food, clothing, and shelter (Chandra) to starving Europeans devastated by World-War-1, and having operated several highly profitable international businesses, Hoover seemed (Chandra, intuitions) able to fix America's ongoing poverty problems.
Zukra has plusses and minuses. In lagna, nichha Zukra benefits the personal wealth and grants a genetically pale complexion. Kendra-adhi-pati Guru brings large-scale (Guru) problems (Kanya) with wealth-treasuries in the forms of banking (2) and ideology (9).

Rahu-Mesha mining ruled by yogakaraka-nichha-Kuja-1
Rahu in 10th-from-Chandra indicates potential for governance and executive authority during Rahu bhukti
Rahu occupies 11th navamsha yuti Shani suggesting a deep focus on revenues, earnings
The stock market crash of 1929 and the sudden impoverishment of millions of Americans happened under Hoover's watch. Curiously, his own financial standing was not afflicted by the Great Depression.
Hoover's later dislike of large inheritances also suggests the experience of being left on his own.
Rahu-8 exotic
Hoover made his fortune outside the US where he was a unique and fascinating figure. Likely he was more familiar with the "ex-pat" artificially dramatized "trickster" version of the American ex-pat engineer and explorer (Kuja). His own people (genetics- 2) rather bewildered him.
Rahu-8 non-disclosure
Hoover demonstrated dramatic and much-praised success for his "can-do" (Rahu-Mesha doing, doer) innovative and dynamic approach to feeding the war victims. His method was not transparent (Rahu-8 secrets) and he would not discuss what would be done but he was willing to explain what had been done (Shani).

Hoover's specialty in leadership was management and communications (Mithunaya 10th navamsha). He was an instructor, describer, explainer. He easily gained institutional authority and public responsibility.

CAREER - KETU
Nichha-Kuja drishti into Ketu-2
Ketu in bhava-2 tends to dissolve the family lineage r and disperse the historic, genetic values in favor of the radical new beginnings of Rahu-Mesha-8.
HH's parents died during his childhood. HH wandered through the homes of relatives, but never stayed in one family for long. As an adult he was a peripatetic figure.
Historians generally judge HH to have failed miserably in his responsibility to protect the US economy.
Despite the previous show of charity and compassion for European war victims, HH essentially ignored the suffering of the American masses, asserted that Americans needed to call upon their own resources without relying on the government, and blamed the victim Zukra-Kanya insinuating that Americans were weak and complaining.
