Masculine Nativity

Pūrvaphalgunī

BPL COMMENTARY

For Purvaphalguni - Yoni - births of a masculine valence, the condition of sweetly musical, artistic, harmony-seeking, negotiating, balancing, arranging, 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, Pūrvaphalgunī - Yonī, or Pūrvāṣāḍhā may find that their worldview is greatly shaped by the character of the feminine companions.

For those born into the Shukra-ruled paradigm of Vutavabana, feminine figures such as sisters, aunts, and wives, along with partnerships, contracts, bargains, sensual pleasures, lovers, artistic beauty, luxurious scents, treasuries, financial arrangements, and music , may be especially influential.

Instructional guidance provided by emissaries from the civilizations of Zosma. Their purpose is to dramatize, glamorize, and politicize the grand theatrical values of creative life.

Diplomatic charm

[Shukra] -ruled Purvaphalguni gentlemen are often found in the sparkling bright worlds of politics , romantic idealism, entertainment, speculative finance, and spectator sports. Yoni-born chaps often display a thick mane of leonine hair and a charming sense of humor.

They are happiest when enjoying a choreographed sport, playing music, dancing with agility and grace, or performing a richly costumed dramatic role for an appreciative audience, Delighted by spectacle and applause, they glitter and smile at parties, political campaigns, gambling and games..

Depending upon the placements of dhanakaraka Shukra and dhana=pati Budha, the Purvarjuni-born may also excel in financial showmanship, bargaining toward a political or commercial agreement, and the high drama of romantic relationships.

Like all Shukra-governed births, Bhagadaivata-born must take care to avoid the misuse of drugs and alcohol. Political success depends upon the charisma of lagnesha Surya. Financial success depends upon the dual-dhanakaraka Shukra and Budha.

Themes of political celebrity, lavish musical entertainments, arts and fashion, and financial agreements may contextualize Pubba's terrestrial experience. Applies also to Chandra-Purvaphalguni.

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

" A physical rather than a mental type.

A healthy constitution
not given to worry or anxiety regarding the problems of living.

He must guard against impulsiveness

since he is apt to act without sufficient thought

and as a result he makes many mistakes
which are difficult to rectify
and which may be disastrous.

He is very active physically and will be proficient at various sports

reveling in the joy of mere action,
even purposeless action.

These people seem never to rest and are constantly in motion.

As soon as they have finished one thing they start on another,
frequently doing several things at a time."

Kipling in the late 1890's

1915, Rudyard Kipling age 50, at the height of his cultural and literary fame

Kipling's Cultural-Literary Legacy

author George Orwell called Kipling a " Jingo Imperialist"

Kipling recorded how the Victorian world finalized modernized in response to World War-1, and how Empire was experienced by different populations within it

Kipling produced vigorously race-hate language for anti-German propaganda

literary innovator in genre of short-story

His children's books were enormously popular when published. Despite his other prolific works having been denigrated as Victorian imperialist boastings, the children's books have continued to charm new generations of Euro-sphere parents.

IF... a poem by Rudyard Kipling --

"If you can keep your head when all about you

Are losing theirs and blaming it on you,

If you can trust yourself when all men doubt you

But make allowance for their doubting too,

If you can wait and not be tired by waiting,

Or being lied about, don't deal in lies,

Or being hated, don't give way to hating,

And yet don't look too good, nor talk too wise:

If you can dream, and not make dreams your master,

If you can think, and not make thoughts your aim

If you can meet with Triumph and Disaster

And treat those two impostors just the same

If you can bear to hear the truth you've spoken

Twisted by knaves to make a trap for fools,

Or watch the things you gave your life to, broken,

And stoop and build 'em up with worn-out tools:

If you can make one heap of all your winnings

And risk it all on one turn of pitch-and-toss,

And lose, and start again at your beginnings

And never breath a word about your loss

If you can force your heart and nerve and sinew

To serve your turn long after they are gone,

And so hold on when there is nothing in you

Except the Will which says to them: "Hold on!"

If you can talk with crowds and keep your virtue,

Or walk with kings, nor lose the common touch,

If neither foes nor loving friends can hurt you

If all men count with you, but none too much,

If you can fill the unforgiving minute

With sixty seconds' worth of distance run,

Yours is the Earth and everything that's in it,

And, which is more, you'll be a Man, my son!

RK needed long sojourns in distant lands. He followed a lifetime pattern of international house-shifts which continued throughout his married adulthood.
While he continued writing, RK shifted between Anglosphere settlements in India, England, New England [USA] and South Africa.

RK reputation based on his ability to render the previously culturally opaque realms of Bharati village life, into a familiar sonorous form [Soma sound]

Also, RK often disappeared from home by taking extended solo visits with his parents -- leaving his wife and children behind while he retreated [12]

Kipling had an extremely complex and demanding relationship with his in-laws.

The Balustier [Ballister] family [his in-laws] operated the publishing house which handled his promotions, distributions, and royalties.
RK was exclusively signed to Balustier Press, and he never worked with any other publishers.

Shukra-5 [wife] rules 3rd-from-Chandra ++ Shani-Tula-3, publishing

MManaged on a day-to-day basis by Carrie, RK produced a lifetime of literary projects
Due to the family's detailed management from concept to point-of-sale, most of his publications enjoyed significant commercial success.

RK was both deeply attached and deeply conflict toward his wife's family, who controlled every aspect of his career.

Mangala within Dhanus = the wife's brothers

Recently uncovered literary correspondence, hidden since the 1880's, suggests that RK had passionate involvements with both of his wife's brothers.

One of Carrie Kipling's brothers, the author-publisher Wolcott Balestier, is said to have been Kipling's romantic lover
Wolcott's suicide was a cause of RK's severe nervous breakdown in young adulthood.

Another of Carrie's brothers, Beatty Balestier [Ballister] was their landlord in Vermont, USA

Beatty Balestier was also Kipling's marketing, distribution, and publishing agent upon whose benevolence Kipling's career much depended.
RK had been very productive in New England.
But after a violent disagreement with his brother-in-law Beatty, RK suddenly relocated his young family back to southern England.

MOTHER

Mom = Alice Macdonald Kipling, an artist and socialite.

Mom was admired for her beauty and her wit. Her personality and social position [10] aided RK's career.

these hidden arrangements are adversarial [6] to RK's romantic writing works [5]

8th-from-Chandr asuggests a career-protecting code of secrecy among those with whom he was most comfortable.

In addition to coverage provided by his protective parents, RK belonged to a literary men's club in London. Here, he socialized with men like himself, who shared a love of Entitled masculinity and Empire.

The men with whom RK socialized in England, New England, and South Africa, were reportedly not enamored of the frustrated and controlling Mrs. Kipling.

In addition to controlling the household operations - including her ability to keep the children quiet so that RK could write -- Carrie Balestier would have been a superior pre-press manager, editor, and secretary.

However, RK's emotional nature [Soma] was misaligned with all aspects of his cash-cow Dhanus creativity.
He complained bitterly of his marital unhappiness.
Carrie carried on.

Despite being unhappy in the marriage partnership, RK was devoted to his children

Yet, Rahu-2 in 5th-from-Chandra

He was devastated when two of his three offspring died before finishing their 18th year.

This clever orthography pleasantly rendered the Indic phonology for RK's Anglo readers

Kipling's imaginative fantasy writings with their signature phonetic sing-song verse were widely celebrated throughout the Anglosphere
Using a phonetic style that was easy for Anglophiles of all social classes to read-out-loud to their children, Kipling became a darling of children's literature.

Icon of British Paternalism [Guru-yuti-Surya]

In his day, Kipling was an enormously feted writer and poet-laureate

RK appeared to many of his Edwardian generation to have epitomized [Surya] the experience of a colonial ruling patriarchy

The overlords were portrayed as kindly wise patrons [Guru] providing principled understanding [Guru] to the childlike, underdeveloped populations of their coloniesr.

Shukra supports highly regulated professional writing environment.
Carrie [Shukra] was said to have organized [Shani] every detail of their home life so that her husband could have the optimal writing conditions.

In additional she served as secretary, and pre-press manuscript editor

her expert handling of RK's texts ensured that a polished, publication-ready product reached the Balestier Press, prepared for marketing, advertising, printing, and shop delivery complete with display instructions and selling-table decor

Shani-Tula = yuvati-pati. Husband and wife were inextricably business-partners.

Due to Carrie's highly effective, mercantile ordering behaviors

RK produced a remarkable amount of impeccably well-prepared, ready-for-publication creative literature on a regular pace [Shani] throughout his lifetime.

However, karmesha Shukra-Mula occupies 6/8 from Chandra

RK's parents and his intimate, nourishing, comfort-zone [Chandra] lifestyle were at permanent loggerheads [6/8] with Carrie's program of literary management.

Mūla takes potentially annihilating risks.

Mangala + Shukra + Budha [all three at 2-deg Mula]

Intense marital conflict ensued after Kipling's literary reputation had been established.
RK wanted more lifestyle freedom - particularly, to keep the company of the men he preferred
However, Carrie had so much business clout that he suffered her lifestyle restrictions in order to maintain his social and financial success

RK would formulate a story in his head, block it out, then proceed with the technical development, sleeping fewer and fewer hours each night until the story was completed.

Their comprehensive management of his literary work facilitated Kipling's work being distributed throughout the Anglosphere.

NOBEL PRIZE for LITERATURE - 1907

Dec-1907 [RK age 42] Nobel Prize in Literature

Shani-Shani svabhukti
uchcha-Shani-3 rules 9-10-from-Chandra,
public celebration, respect

A small group of well-connected men [3, small groups, teams] decide who receives Nobel Prizes.

The prize was established in 1895 by Alfred Nobel , who made a fortune in deadly military explosives.

The all-male cohort included vigorously ideological supporters of Empire, and of Kipling's style of celebrating British cultural hegemony.

During Shani-Shani svabhukti , RK was the first English-language author to receive the Nobel Prize in Literature
RK remains the youngest writer ever to receive that prize

Shani rogesha occupies 6th-from-Chandra

Time not kind to RK's literary "genius"

Following WW-2, the colonialist enthusiasm had dissipated and the glorious Empire collapsed.

RK's formerly praised-to-the-stars genius was accused of mere jingo-istic culturally arrogant imperialism

Eventually, literary critics deprecatedRK's work as a romanticized artifact of Imperial culture.

RK died in 1936, still basking in glory.

Sadly, RK's literary reputation has not withstood the test of time.

Modern literary critics tend to disparage his characterizations as condescending [Guru-Surya self-righteousness] rather than intriguing.

After WW-2, RK's 1907 Nobel Prize in Literature began to be cited as a cautionary example [Shani] of incorrect prize criteria used by the coterie of prize-givers

RK's nationalistic glee had faded into grim post-war realism [Shani]
critics warned of disregarding the political impact of Nobel Prizes

Orderly Shani imposes a Disciplined and Productive Literary Life

RK wrote systematically, producing hand-written drafts on a schedule from " block-out" to galley proof.

Despite their personality mismatches, Rudyard and Carrie Kipling teamworked productively, for decades.

Shani drishti to Shukra shows the discipline with which Carrie arranged their family life in strict detail, so that Rudyard could continue to write at home without unwanted interruption.
Her sobriety and unforgiving daily regulation were integral to his lifelong literary success

Shani-3 rogesha in 6th-from-Chandra = suppressed quarreling

Carrie was said to have been bitter about RK's long sojourns from their home. Her husband either stayed with his indulgent parents [Chandra] or commingled in men's clubs with gentlemen of similar tastes [Mūla-Kuja] .

The couple were known to live in a state of mutual grievance for decades [durokaraka Shani, long resentments]
living in a climate of persistent but quietly dignified grief

[Rahu Mahadasha] [age 5.6 until age 23.6]

According to RK, during the years age 7-10 his parents stayed in India while he was placed with a foster family in England, who bullied and abused him
++ Sade-Sati

RK recounted deep scars due to physical violence and psychological bullying

Age six, RK and his sister were bed-and-boarded with a English host family, thousands of miles away from his parents in Bombay.
The hostess was viciously strict with harsh beatings and punishment for moral correction.
When RK's mother discovered the abuses, she quietly removed him and nothing was mentioned until years later. [Rahu drishti into Chandra, cultural habits of denial]

[Rahu in bhava-2] phonetics

passion for foreign speech [2]

ambition for privilege via cultural mixing in matters of language, sound-values, history

For better or for worse, one of the strongest common images of India transmitted to the outside world remains the charming tonal stereotypes of Kipling's fiction

A century later, the patronizing colonial philosophy is decidedly out of date.

However, most of Kipling's writing is still in print.

Due mainly to the charm of his phonetic renderings, English-speaking children worldwide are still being read Rikki-Tikki-Tavi by their loving parents.

OUTCOMES - KETU

[Ketu in classroom-8] occupies the emotionally motivated community-linking, gainful, friendly, goal-oriented, socially-networked [11th-from-Chandra]

RK's personal life was filled with sustained absences, hidden liaisons

Many of RK's friends had eccentric [Ketu], potentially criminalized [6] socially marginalized qualities [6]

Yet, these detachments encouraged them to form social clubs and networks of profitable Odd-Fellows [11]

RK wrote at home, but otherwise he was absent [Ketu] while socializing with this odd community.
