Rising Nakshatra

Masculine Nativities

Uttaraphalguni-Aryaman

Bhaga * Falgun * Utthram

BPL commentary

For Uttaraphalguni 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 Surya-ruled paradigm of Uttora, 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.

Uttara-phalguni chaps are famously hot-headed. (Can be counterbalanced by a cool moon.)

Instructional guidance provided by emissaries from the civilizations of Denebola. Their purpose to brighten and glorify the divine intelligence through spectacular creativity.

Brilliantly dramatic

Simha-Leya pada-1 = radiant confidence, flamboyance, and remarkable intelligence. While much depends upon the characteristics of nakshatra-pati Surya, the Falgun birth of masculine valence favors dramatic displays of celebrity, romance, creativity, and entitlement.

Kanya pada 2-3-4 = equally smart and authoritative, but more focused upon personal enclosure and distant lands, often wielding power from a hermitage, sanctuary, or secluded location. May be an empowered politician of international ability, according to the strengths of nakshatra-pati Surya.

Although Shil Ponde's description often fits the Kanya pada 2-3-4 of Uttaraphalguni, the Simha pada-1 is rarely rough or ungrateful. Still, they can be impatient with others who are less confident or less intelligent.

Themes of political power, radiant creativity, and bright celebrity drama may contextualize Utthram's terrestrial experience. Applies also to Chandra in Uttaraphalguni-Aryaman

QUOTATION from Shil-Ponde. (1939). Hindu Astrology Joytisha-Shastra. p 83

"A proud and arrogant disposition,

• with a tendency to ride roughshod over other peoples' opinions.

Uttara natives are extremely intelligent

but because of their inordinate pride,

• they accept favors ungraciously even when in need

and are ungrateful to those from whom they receive these favors."

[Surya in bhava-3] rules

• 12-meditation, contemplation, clairsentient symbolic understanding
• Surya permits Retreat into Interiority, Private Study

Surya is harshly oppressed by Surya's arch-enemy, the secretive, punitive, restrictive agency of social order, Vṛścika Shani. Surya is also responsible for the combustion of Shani and Budha. Shukra escapes the burn.

FATHER

[Surya in bhava-3]

• Spinoza's father hailed from a long line of commercial agents
• His dad and his grand-dad were international shipping merchants [3]

[trading Surya-yuti-Shani. The family import-export business was ongoing but never highly successful [Shani losses, limitations] .

• young Bento along with his brother Abraham [Gabriel] assumes control of the family business [3]

[Surya-yuti-Budha] commerce [Surya yuti Shani] social responsibility

During the interminable European sea-trading wars, when Baruch was 21, his fruit-importer father was traveling aboard a trading ship that came under attack by pirate gunfire. At age 21, elder son Baruch Spinoza thus inherited responsibility to operate the family business.

MOTHER

Little Bento was born to his father's second wife. Tragically, at his age 6, mom died from typhoid in the water when little Baruch was age-6 [Chandra water]

CULTURE

Spinoza is often identified as the first famous example of a secular Jew in Europe.

Amplifying the disturbance to Soma's cultural roots, Chandra-yuti-Rahu suggests a lifetime of emotional upheaval and a barrier-bending, taboo-twisting sensibility which causes an interrupted sense of belonging.

His life plan would seem to have provocatively prevented conformity and reduced stability in order to exaggerate the patterns of revelation [8] in his magnificent philosophy.

MARRIAGE partnership emotional equity support expectations

Budha lagnesha

Spinoza is considered by many historians to represent Europe's first example of a secular Jew. His identity was self-defined by his thoughts [Budha] not his catechesis or his appearance.

Spinoza produced some of the highest-quality, most detailed descriptive, instructionally complete, intellectual philosophical writing of the European Enlightenment

Spinoza was banished from the Amsterdam Jewish community by writ of Cherem [haram] which declared his ideas to be abhorrent.

However, Spinoza at the time commented that the excommunication situation did not bother him. He said it was essentially irrelevant [Ketu] to his philosophical purpose. He left Amsterdam, and he continued to write.
