Not all those who wander are lost

Deep roots are not reached by the frost.

From the ashes a fire shall be woken,

A light from the shadows shall spring

Renewed shall be blade that was broken,

The crownless again shall be king.

BPL COMMENTARY

For Chitra - Tvastri births of a masculine valence, the condition of kinesthetic, direct, yang-energy, forward-pushing bhratru-karaka Mangala may considerably affect the outcome.

For those born into the Mangala-ruled paradigm of Visvakarma, brother-figures, warriors, hunters, athletes, dancers, champions, challengers, inventors, explorers, dis-coverers, engineers, builders, drivers, drillers, diggers, exploders, aggressors, pursuers, competitions and battles may be especially influential.

Guided by instructors from civilizations of Spica. their purpose is architectural engineering and crafting of beautiful, functional, and artistic alliances, arrangements, and designs.

Designs + Arrangements

[Competitive Champion Kuja]-ruled Chaitra fellows have a knack for competition. Goal-oriented and kinetic in building, patterning Tvastri, they strive for dominant power in engineering, artisan mechanics, architecture, and applied design arts such as skilled handcraft. As authors, chaitrika often illustrate their works with fine drawings. Tvastri-born have a natural affinity for tools, engines, driving, building.

Kanya pada 1-2 express Kuja's rulership of 3-writing + 8-mystical transformations, while also displaying the frustrating tension of chatty Budha versus active Kuja. Literary Budha plays a stronger role for pada 1-2, producing scholars and writers who argue about architectonics, engineering design, color values, and mechanics. Pada 1-2 = also skilled in handcraft and may be professors-cum-tradesmen, fine-arts painters, model-builders, or manually gifted musicians.

[Tula - Vanika] pada 3-4 express Kuja's rulership of 2-collections, assets + 7-contractual equity. Shukra's bargaining behavior and financial skills play a stronger role for pada 3-4, who enjoy the mutual attractions of Shukra-Mangala. In music, arts, and engineering, they pursue harmonious arrangements. They often play stringed instruments, and write beautiful songs. Chaitrika pada 3-4 can be found in the design world, in financial negotiations, and in dynamic meditator roles.

Themes of productive touch including artistic design, musical instruments, mechanical engineering, and crafting of dynamic arrangements contextualize Vismakarma's terrestrial experience. Incoming drishti from Kuja can mobilize their progressive, pioneering actions. Also applies to Chandra in Chitra - Spica.

QUOTATION Tvastri

from Shil-Ponde. (1939). Hindu Astrology Joytisha-Shastra. p 84

" Chitra natives are quiet, thoughtful, and profound.

Very slow in movement and of great dignity in bearing and manner.

they like to read books on serious and philosophical subjects.

they make good students in their youth.

they are also extremely clever with their hands,

which are strong, supple, and dexterous.

they like to do things or fashion things with their hands

and could be sculptors or artists or surgeons."

JRRT's foundational security and economic income = earned from military service [6] and his paycheck as a university worker [Chandra-6 + Guru rules 4-classroom teaching]

Like most teachers, JRRT earned a formal salary so small that he needed extra income to support his family. For many years, JRRT served as an "outside examiner" meaning that he graded examination papers from other universities to earn extra money.

Later in life when his creative literary oeuvre began to sell, his income increased [Guru]. Eventually JRRT enjoyed a modestly affluent lifestyle.

Friendships

[Varuna-Somana-yuti-Guru-Purvabhadra] = friendships of all kinds]

World-War-1 mass death, war-loss of close friends

Labha-pati in Kumbha-6
Most of Tolkien's friends [11] were killed during conscripted military service [6] in the First World War [6, ancient conflicts] .

hideous trench-warfare of WW-1 = 1916

patriotic military service = Chandra-6 war + Guru rules 4 defense

2nd-lieutenant Signaling Officer [Budha] = British Army, World-War-1
volunteered and trained as code-breaker/encrypter during WW-2, but did not serve

in the vicious, no-winner Battle of the Somme, he sustained deep psycho-mental trauma [Chandra-6] from the horrors of trench-warfare, and suffered near-deadly infections, but he was never gassed, shot, or shelled.

Kanya-[Shani in Bhava-1] rogesha in 8th-from-Chandra

signals the harsh initiation into war-and-injustice [Kanya]
but Shani responds with orderly personal discipline
and as vidya-pati, Shani mandates the expression of a structured creative intelligence. JRRT's most salient military service was as a message coder/cryptographer

World-War-1 shapes a Cultural Wisdom viewpoint

JRRT's war experiences, from propaganda-making to agonizing personal losses, are ultimately transformed [8] into the genius [5] of his legendary literary characters, their courage, and their sacrifice

As he himself told the tale of his original motivation to develop uplifting tales of ancient civilizations, JRRT's need to reinterpret deep Germanic folk roots arose during the sheer barbarity of trench warfare during La Guerre Mondiale.

Having survived the agonies of a heinous war, which killed most of his friends, JRRT felt that the deeper truth of Germanic ethnos had been highjacked by invasive Draco,

Restorative [2] atmakaraka Mangala-Visaka

He intended to restore the naturally friendly ancient rhythms of traditional northern-Euro peoples [Kumbha Guru-rule 4 + 4th-from-4]

As he knew, this root-stock had lived in collectivities [Kumbha] which integrated numerous [Guru] conscious life-forms such as dwarves and elves.

They took guidance [9] from a variety [Guru] of enspirited voices. Yet they were Earthen beings who were working the moral polarities [Chandra] of the School of Earth = dark-and-light, fear-and-trust, good-and-evil.

History of Languages [2] Writing [3] and Teaching, Parenting [4]

JRRT intended his books [3] to restore moral integrity to the Germanic peoples [4] after the terrible World Wars, by drawing upon the linguistic memory [2] of Britain's ancient Germanic settlements [4] [= Saxon, Angle, Jute]

= atmakaraka Mangala-Visaka [in bhava-2 traditions] intakes expansive drishti from Guru-Kumbha-6

- plus more factors --

Kanya-Shani the Task-Master

JRRT was able to maintain a teaching overload AND produce academic scholarship of high quality AND raise a family AND produce a steady stream of writings-with-drawing for LOTR

Of course he could only do this superhuman schedule because Edith created a stable, supportive, home environment [4] - he worked mainly at home [4]

Zeitgeist Needs an Uplifting, Familiar Voice

Following WW-1 but before the onset of Adolf Hitler, Tolkien began to sense that the higher spirit which guided the Germanic peoples through their time in history [Zeitgeist] was endangered.

The ancient Zeitgeist needed both development [Guru] and protection [Chandra] .

Reviving Germanic Cultural Heritage as the way to defeat usurper Hitler

As always for [Chandra-Kumbha] comforting Chandra activates [6th-from-Chandra] accusations

As WW-2 accelerated, JRRT became a vibrant critic of Hitler's Nazi expansionism.
Tolkien claimed vigorously that Hitler had poisoned and destroyed the deeper Germanic ethno-integrity

MOTHER - sickness, poverty, conflict - and faith

[Chandra in classroom-6] rules [6th-from-Chandra]

+ [Varuna-Somana-yuti-Guru-Purvabhadra]

JRRT's father died via cerebral hemorrhage on 15-Feb-1896 = JRRT age 4

Widowed mom suffered from long-term diabetic distress - which was tragically untreatable in her era. Mom died of renal failure when little JRRT was 12.

According to Tolkien's memoires, following her abandonment of her family's protesting-faith, his doctrina conversa mother's most salient feature was her deep identification with the Roman-Rite and its priesthood. [Guru rules 4, old-ways ritual worship]

fierce anti-Catholic opposition from her relatives caused bitter, impoverishing family conflict [Chandra in classroom-6] rules [6th-from-Chandra] until she died

When JRRT and his younger brother were orphaned, they were schooled and and guided to university by mom's confessor priest who assumed their fatherly guardianship. JRRT remained a devoted RC-adherent for the rest of his life, and his eldest son became an RC-priest [Rahu-uchcha drishti into Shukra-Makara-5]

MARRIAGE partnership emotional equity support expectations

[7th-from-Chandra-6] = [Chandra-Kumbha]

12-fantasy, imagination, distant worlds, isolation, sanctuary, retreat, private spiritual guidance, clairsentience
Simha = drama, creative performance, theatrical dance, entitlement and pride, bright lights, intelligence, choice-making, celebrity, games, children, romance, politics

Although very few of JRRT's buddies had nice things to say about Edith, indeed JRRT himself gave lavish praise to her beauty, grace, and artistic nature.

Generally JRRT's friends complained that Edith was dismissively superior, socially petty, arrogant, and made them unwelcome in JRRT's home.

Yet, these very qualities of self-isolation and contempt for the rabble of JRRT's friends [Kumbha] may have been the secret to Tolkien's deep appreciation of his wife.

[Varuna-Somana-yuti-Guru-Purvabhadra]

JRRT needed to socialize. However, he accommodated the lifepartner's style by meeting with fellow writers and thinkers - and giving interviews for publications -- mainly in pubs and parks.

7th-from-Chandra = 12

Edith was born in England, whereas JRRT was born in So.Africa - thus satisfying the expectation that lifepartners of Chandra-6 do typically hail from distant lands or inscrutably different cultural backgrounds.

More importantly, Edith's insular personality [12] ensured contemplative seclusion within his home office, where much of JRRT's off-duty writing and drawing occurred.

By keeping his many friends [Guru-Kumbha + vriddhi-pati-Soma] in the pub rather than in his parlor, beloved Edith made it possible for JRRT to quietly [12] write-and-draw at home. His multi-decade creative work was largely undisturbed, except by their children - whom he adored.

Surya-Dhanus-4 in Apah-3 ruler of Simha = 7th-from-Soma

Surya finds debilitation in navamsha-2, suggesting a disturbance of the lifepartner's family line. One of the backstories behind Edith's social distancing was a deep humiliation incurred during her Victorian childhood.

The illegitimate daughter of an older, affluent businessman father and her younger unmarried governess mother, Edith was raised with education [4] and resources [2]

She became an expert musical notator, pianist, and organist [Purva-ashadha]

JRRT recounted being utterly smitten with Edith's singing voice and hypnotic dancing.

But subjected to barbs of taunting gossip, Edith became un-social and hyper-selective.

Kalatra-karaka Shukra occupies Śrāvaṇa-3

Shukra-Shravana is primarily concerned to maintain social dignity and class-conscious respect.

JRRT's beloved with Edith wanted a shrouded, enclosed identity [12] -- or at least she did not wish to be subject to the banter within her husband's literary circles.

living behind a lace curtain of public invisibility, She was concerned with maintaining the family's reputation [Makara]

Shukra-Makara in a husbandly nativity would indicate a wife with beautiful bone-structure. Shravana-Shukra is often musical due to sensitive hearing.

Edith's restrictive class-consciousness was life defining, but Rahu-9-uchcha drishti into Shukra gave her the outsider's advantage. Late in life, when JRRT's books became best-sellers, the enduring couple retired to an upper-class eschelon -- so that, according to JRRT, Edith could have the social prestige she had always craved.

CAREER - BRIGHT BHRIGU-TANAYA

Tolkien spoke frequently and lovingly of his wife Edith. Tolkien's friends were not so much enamored of Edith, whom they found impatient, prim, and too focused on class-status (T's Makara-Shukra).

However, JRRT adored his wife.

Furthermore, Shukra intakes drishti of the amplified, over-reaching wisdom of uchcha-Rahu-9 = enrichment, meaning

= Edith's home-keeping skills [ her Chandra-Kanya] formed the sine-qua-non of JRRT's structured, long-term writing plan

Typical of [Shukra-Makara-Draco] , JRRT's beloved wife Edith was three years elder to him

Children and Credenda

Wherever Rahu goes, there is over-reaching. Shukra indicates relationships, and Makara = institutions.

After his mother's tragic death from diabetes, JRRT maintained his Catholic identity as a life-ordering routinized practice [Shukra-Makara rules 2-tradition, legacy].

Later in life, JRRT's eldest child - a priest - [Shukra dharmesha intakes Rahu-uchcha-drishti] was implicated in the pedophilia scandal that was sweeping through the RC world. However, the accusations were not officially substantiated.

Shukra's important role in creative writing [5] scholarship [5] and relationship narratives [rules-2 narratives]

JRRT wrote high-fantasy fiction literature that had enormous appeal to the popular imagination [Shukra in 12th-from-Soma]

. In print continuously since 1937, JRRT's fantasy-fiction books were scripted into equally popular epic cinematic films [Shukra in 3rd-from-3]

Shukra rules kārakāmsha Urisha-9 = 4th-from-Chandra ancestry, rhythmic speech-chanting, cultural foundations, security

JRRT created [5] perhaps the most famously elaborated [Shani-1-Kanya labor] fantasy worlds in modern English literature.

CAREER - SOBER SHANI

= work-ethic, time-discipline, orderly behavior, identified with hierarchies and class-conscious although not supremacist

As a professor at several Oxford colleges, Tolkien lectured to literature and linguistics students while privately crafting his elaborate and incredibly long-story books.

Tolkien produced thousands of pages of hand-written literary manuscript and scholarly monograph, hundreds of elaborate drawings, abundant calligraphy, studied and published philogical research in dozens of old languages, designed several new languages [Kuja-2 engineering] + taught countless university classes, fought in WW-1, code-encrypted for WW-2, and raised four children -- all at a normal pace [Shani-1] of constant production continuing until his death age 82.

During JRRT's childhood, mom endured shunning [12, isolation] from her own anti-Catholic family, due to her conversion to Roman-Rite credenda.

Ruler of 12th-from-Chandra can supply the emotional need for silent sanctuary that is utterly required to produce works of creative literature and arts.

Personal discipline and neutrality toward outer material conditions

Shani-1 located in 8th-from-Chandra

= JRRT's pragmatism gave structure to a dangerously fast-evolving childhood via

Shani's stalwart, fixed response to the volatility induced by mom's belief-driven personality, religious convictions, her tragic premature death,
and the multiple father-figures in patron-roles [notably a priest] .

Through the extreme danger of WW-1 - when nearly all of his friends were killed - and every kind of uncertainty, JRRT persisted. [Shani-1]

Academic stalwart. Professor of linguistics at several colleges within Oxford University, for thirty-five years, spanning WW-2, 1925-1959.

Shani is usually a beneficial tenant in any 8th-amsha, because He is unmoving within a catalytic environment [8] that can become overwhelming.

JRRT weathered major life-storms in order to write believable tales about beings who... weathered massive life-storms, incredible danger, and fierce transformations.

Shani's rigidly fearful staunch resistance can batten the hatches when the winds of change reach hurricane strength, allowing one to persist even under duress of sustained emotional upheaval.

OUTCOMES - RISK-REWARDING RAHU

Powerhouse lynchpin of the nativity. The most important elements of JRRT's literary accomplishment are all connected to Rahu uchcha in karakamsha.

Within his majority Protestant social culture, Tolkien was famed for his devotional adherence to Roman-Rite observance [9] drishti into Shani-1 [personal stamina]

OUTCOMES - EVACUATING KETU

Ketu-3-uchcha in 10th-from-Chandra

= publicly resonant themes of sacrificial bravery

Ketu in Vṛścika disregards materialist fears about cycles of emergency, secrecy-and-discovery.

Tolkien's first books [3] were adjudged as being too weird [Ketu] for modern readers due to their "eye-splitting" Celtic place-names [Ketu splitting, Ketu wandering].
Thus his ambitious but risky output was initially refused by publisher [3] * Budha-Rahu bhukti

Yet a plan was made for "splitting" [Ketu-3] the massive manuscript [+9000-pgs] into a literary trilogy. The split worked for both the publisher and the ever-more-enthusiastic audience [3]

JRRT was embraced as brilliantly exotic writer [Rahu-uchcha-9]. Tolkien won them over via his own ambitious certainty in the power of the story

First he explained [3] that the unfamiliar names were not Celtic anyway, but rather more Germanic in linguistic form.

Thus a magnificent new expression of the literary genre of other-worlds "high-fantasy fiction" was born. Uchcha-Rahu drishti into Ketu-3 in occult, transformative Vrischika -3 in 10th-from-Chandra public recognition
Ultimately, Rahu-9 gave JRRT rich rewards in his late-middle decades,

3-commerce, publication, production, communications, touring, explanation, articulation, teamwork, collaboration, radio-television-cinema-newspaper-internet, process management, manufacturing

Ketu-3 writing-publishing on eccentric, disoriented, or witnessing topics,

1971 BBC Interview with JRR Tolkien

" Q: Did you intend in Lord of the Rings that certain races should embody certain principles: the elves wisdom, the dwarves craftsmanship, men husbandry and battle and so forth?

T: I didn't intend it but when you've got these people on your hands you've got to make them different haven't you. Well of course as we all know ultimately we've only got humanity to work with, it's only clay we've got.

We should all - or at least a large part of the human race - would like to have greater power of mind, greater power of art by which I mean that the gap between the conception and the power of execution should be shortened, and we should like a longer if not indefinite time in which to go on knowing more and making more.

Therefore, the Elves are immortal in a sense. I had to use immortal, I didn't mean that they were eternally immortal, merely that they are very longeval and their longevity probably lasts as long as the inhabitability of the Earth.

The dwarves of course are quite obviously - wouldn't you say that in many ways they remind you of the Jews? Their words are Semitic obviously, constructed to be Semitic. Hobbits are just rustic English people, made small in size because it reflects [in general] the small reach of their imagination - not the small reach of their courage or latent power.

Q: This seems to be one of the great strengths of the book, this enormous conglomeration of names - one doesn't get lost, at least after the second reading.

T: I'm very glad you told me that because I took a great deal of trouble. Also it gives me great pleasure, a good name. I always in writing start with a name. Give me a name and it produces a story, not the other way about normally."
