Masculine Nativities
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.
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 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."

Rescue of failing Crusades by Newspapers 1863-1951 plutocrat William Randolph Hearst
In early1949 during Surya-Budha bhukti * Budha-yuti-Rahu-2 speech, Rev. William "Billy" Graham's Los Angeles Crusade was playing to an empty house. The audience had dwindled, expenses could not be paid, and the operators were going to shut down the failed revival meetings.
Suddenly (Rahu) he saw the flashing of camera lights as the aisles filled with newspaper reporters [Budha].
The billionaire plutocrat, pro-fascist, and virulent anti-Communist media magnate Newspapers 1863-1951 plutocrat William Randolph Hearst had heard Graham speak. W.R. Hearst had commanded battalions of newspaper and radio journalists to vigorously promote Graham's anti-Communist Crusade. Their salaries were paid by Hearst.
Although most religious leaders in the USA were careful to respect the legal distinction between church and state, Newspapers 1863-1951 plutocrat William Randolph Hearst was a fascist for whom there were no such protections since "all was bound together".
Fascisti do not respect legal distinctions, Rather, they seek a mandatory, centralized, uniform power. Hearst wanted to see more binding between politics and religion within Euro-American culture, and in Graham he found an excellent tool.
Follow the Funding
For Hearst, more Christianity meant less Communism. During the final two years of Hearst's life, Hearst significantly funded Graham's ministry . Graham's preaching ever afterward reflected the nichha-Surya willingness to say what the cintamani * mani * money (combust Zukra) required him to say.
Billy Graham socializing with POTUS-43 Decision Points 1946- George W. Bush . Graham, who was four years elder to GW's father, had been a family friend and counselor. In his 2010 autobiography Decision Points, GW Bush credited Graham with supporting GW's successful struggle to break free from chronic alcoholism.

Mula-Kuja in 6/8 from Ketu-9 ideology
Ketu-9 disregards the historic (Urisha) principled (9) distinction between Church and State.
Graham did not espouse any specific sacred catechism. His primary exhortation to accept a liberating (Ketu) release of personal salvation was awkwardly (6/8) combined with sporadic additional exhortations to ethical ethno-nationalism (4-10).
BG's early financial supporter, the noted fascist Newspapers 1863-1951 plutocrat William Randolph Hearst, used BG's Christian Nationalism to promote Hearst's agenda of morality legislation (4-10). Zukra-2 rules 2-9 = financial relationships tied to ideology.
