Chiranjeevi and Vijaykanth- Electoral Fortunes: Astro Analysis

Chiranjeevi and Vijaykanth- Electoral Fortunes: Astro Analysis

Chiranjeevi founded Praja Rajyam as a regional political party in the state of Andhra Pradesh in India on August 26, 2008.

The party contested all 40 Lok Sabha seats in Andhra Pradesh and lost all of them. It won in 18 of 294 assembly seats. The party leader, Chiranjeevi contested two assembly seats Tirupathi and Palacole in his native West Godavari district, and lost the Palacole election. It polled 15 % votes and is believed to have affected the victory chances of TDP in many seats. It came second in 31 assembly seats and three Lok Sabha seats.

Chiranjeevi was born on 22nd August 1955 at 10:10 AM in Narsapur. In Chiranjeevi’s horoscope Libra is the rising Lagna, Vedic Sun sign is Leo and Moon sign is Virgo. The birth Nakshatra is Chitra 2nd pada. There is formation of Hamsha yoga (exalted Jupiter in Kendra) and Sasa yoga (exalted Saturn in Lagna). Both, these yogas are “Panch Mahapurusha yoga” meaning yogas which make a person dignified. However, Saturn and Jupiter both are getting debilitated (weak) in Navamsha chart. Hence, the promise of major political gains was diluted.

The 7th lord in Chiranjeevi’s horoscope is Mars that happens to be placed with the Lagna lord Venus in the house of gains (11th house). Hence, Praja Rajyam party under his leadership can grow up as a more dominating party after June 2012 when the Mahadasa of Mercury starts in the horoscope of Chiranjeevi. However, Chiranjeevi should learn the art of alliance to have a say in the next assembly election. His horoscope suggests gains from alliances.

Vijaykanth was born on 25th August 1952 in Madurai. The time of birth is not available. Hence, assessment has been made from natal Moon. In his horoscope the Sun sign is Leo, Moon sign is Virgo and birth Nakshatra is Chitra 2nd pada.

Vijaykanth formed Desiya Murpokku Dravida Kazhagam (DMDK). He formally announced party formation on September 14, 2005 at Madurai. The party head office is in Koyambedu, Chennai.

This party contested all 234 seats in the state elections in May 2006 with Vijayakanth contesting in Vridhachalam. The party polled almost 3 million votes which were about 10% of the total votes cast. This was surprisingly a very good show for a new party. However, the total votes did not translate into assembly seats. All the candidates of the DMDK with the exception of Mr.Vijaykanth lost the elections in 2006.

DMDK contested all 39 seats independently in Tamil Nadu in the 15th Lok Sabha election in 2009 and lost all of them. The party, however, made strong inroads in the heartland of Pattali Makkal Katchi (PMK). The party polled 30.52 lakh votes of the total of 3.02 crore valid votes polled in the state representing roughly a vote share of 10.09 %.

Though his party did not win any seat, it appears to have made the difference between margin of victory or loss in case of many candidates. Well established party PMK has been seriously affected.

Here, the point to be noted is that Sun sign, Moon sign and birth Nakshatra of both Chiranjeevi and Vijaykanth are same. However, the difference is that there are rajya yogas and Panch Mahapurusha yoga’s in the horoscope of Chiranjeevi that is giving him and edge over Vijaykanth.

The seventh lord from Moon in case of Vijaykanth is Jupiter that happens to be placed in the 8th house. This indicates that his party is not able to forge ahead because of lack of alliances. However, DMDK will be able to do well if Vijaykanth is able to bring in Rajnikanth in his party. If either the AIADMK or DMK lose hold in the state, he will be a direct beneficiary.

Mahinda Rajapaksha and Terror Free Sri Lanka: Astro Analysis

Mahinda Rajapaksha and Terror Free Sri Lanka: Astro Analysis

Mahinda Rajapaksa will be known in history as a president who brought an end to the Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam (LTTE) and its chief Velupillai Prabhakaran.

Soon after the reports of Sri Lankan army’s win over LTTE Sri Lanka's president declared his country "liberated from separatist terror" on Tuesday. The state television broadcasted images of the Tamil Tiger rebel leader's body after it was recovered from the battlefield.

But in his victory address to parliament, President Mahinda Rajapaksa appeared to reach out to the minority Tamils, for whom the rebels had said they were trying to carve out a homeland. He also seemed to promise a power-sharing agreement with them.

"Our intention was to save the Tamil people from the cruel grip of the (rebels). We all must now live as equals in this free country," he said, briefly speaking in the Tamil language.

Mahinda Rajapaksa was born on 18th November 1945 in Weeraketiya. Moon was placed in Aries rashi and birth Nakshatra was Ashvini. Time of birth is not very certain, hence astrological analysis has been done from natal Moon.

Venus is placed in the 7th house in own sign in the horoscope indicating that his wife will be beautiful. Shiranthi Wickremesinghe, his wife was Miss Sri Lanka in 1978 and also represented Sri Lanka at the Miss World Contest. This justifies our analysis from Moon.

The most important combination that draws my attention is placement of Rahu in the 3rd house from Moon. This placement means that the president is courageous and a tough decision maker.

Mars and Saturn combination in the 4th house indicates the strong resolve to fight militancy. However, this conjunction also indicates that there can be safety concerns for him. Mars and Saturn combination in 4th house does give danger from conveyance.

Aries rashi gives him a strong temperament and qualities of commander in chief. He knows that terror can be countered not by talks but by strong military action. As per numerology also the date of birth 1+8 adds up to 9 which represent Mars.

His date of birth add up to 1+8+1+1+1+9+4+5 = 30 which adds up to 3+0= 3 which represents Jupiter; hence in future he will prove to be a sound administrator as well. In all likelihood he would work for the betterment and honor of the Tamilian immigrants in Sri Lanka.

The challenges before Mahinda Rajapaksa will be immense in times to come. The entire world will watch out how the president will win the confidence of Tamilians of Sri Lanka. Because, if he fails to do so, there can be birth of yet another rebel in Sri Lanka.

Military action can stop the menace of rebellion only for sometime. However, it is very important for him to address the issues which saw the rise of Velupillai Prabhakaran and Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam (LTTE). The issues are discrimination with Tamils, lack of education and employment for them and their treatment as inferior citizens.

The Government of India is extending financial support for rehabilitation of Tamils in war affected areas. Hope India and Sri Lanka work together for betterment of Tamilians in Sri Lanka. Mahinda Rajapaksa became Member of Parliament at the tender age of 24 years and he has enough experience to understand the main issue behind the Tamil problem.

Taliban- Potential threat or blessing in disguise?: Astro Analysis

Taliban- Potential threat or blessing in disguise?: Astro Analysis

South Asia comprises of India, Pakistan, Sri Lanka, Nepal, Bhutan and Maldives out of which India and Pakistan have the most important and dominant presence. The recent transits of planets have triggered many changes in the political arena of all these countries. Sri Lanka is crushing the LTTE causing a concern in India as well. Pakistan is passing through one of the worst offensive from Taliban and they are fighting a war to survive.

The bottom line is that even though boundaries were made to separate two nations, the regional base and common roots between these neighboring counties affect the polity in these nations. Imposition of Jazia Tax on Sikh community in Taliban controlled areas in Pakistan made India appeal to the Government of Pakistan to interfere in this matter. Tamilian issue in Sri Lanka has been one of the key election issues in Tamil Nadu politics.

I want to emphasize that even though nations are separated by their geographical boundaries, the problems originating from a common root can be solved only through mutual negotiations. No problem in today’s world can be left isolated. Hence, the concern in Pakistan directly affects India as well.

Transit of Saturn in Leo rashi sets new trend. The aspect of Jupiter from 3rd May 2009 on Saturn indicates that the politics of hate has to be substituted by politics of tolerance and cooperation. What is relevant here is that US President Mr. Barack Obama has also said to Pakistan President Mr. Asif Ali Zardari that India is not a threat to Pakistan. The real threat to Pakistan is Taliban.

If statements of Mr. Asif Ali Zardari have to be believed, this will perhaps be the first occasion when Pakistan will seek cooperation both from USA and India for combating the menace of Taliban. Mr. Zardari has also said that after the election and formation of a new government, he will seek betterment of economic ties with India.

Rahu and Ketu axis is afflicting natal moon and 3rd house in India’s horoscope. The 4th lord Sun is also afflicted in transit. The result of this transit is that there shall be attempts of infiltration from Indian border. Terrorists can make attempts to get into the country and create disturbance.

Simultaneously, Rahu and Ketu transit from 4th house in Pakistan’s horoscope indicates that militants are posing a threat to the integrity and sovereignty of Pakistan.

Hence, India and Pakistan both make a perfect team to settle these issues together and they may combat militancy, poverty and other problems affecting their growth. Mutual hatred will not fulfill the needs of the rapidly growing population of these two countries. The welfare of the people in both of them depends on economic growth.

Taliban issue is creating a perfect platform from where both the countries can work together for a better tomorrow. Hence, Taliban can prove to be a blessing in disguise and opening up of a new chapter in India - Pakistan relationship.

Powerful women in Indian Politics: Astro Analysis

Indian politics cannot be complete without the role of females in the present scenario. Late Smt. Indira Gandhi has been considered as the most powerful prime minister that India has ever produced.
Right now, in India there are three powerful women leaders who hold the key to any government formation. They are also the most powerful leaders in their political outfits.

Mrs Sonia Gandhi (Congress President)
She needs no introduction in political arena. She is the daughter in law of Late Smt. Indira Gandhi and wife of Late Shri Rajiv Gandhi who have remained central to Congress Governments. After the death of her husband she remained away from politics for many years. Thereafter, because of bad performance of congress in the elections she accepted the post of party president and helped congress reorganize itself. She has now become the most powerful leader of the party and the nation. The opposition alleges that the present congress government works under her commands.
In her horoscope Cancer is the sign rising in the lagna. Cancer Lagna is the lagna of royalty. Her horoscope makes her a natural leader. Her Moon sign is Gemini and Vedic Sun sign is Scorpio. The dasa running right now is of Mercury / Jupiter till 17th December 2009. Jupiter is involved in rajya yoga indicating that the period right now is favorable for her. Because she is the president of the Indian National Congress, the party will get more seats in the ongoing election. The Mahadasa running right now is of Mercury that happens to be placed in the 5th house and the 5th house signifies children. She rejected the Prime Ministers post but groomed her children well in politics. In future both her children will play more active role in Indian Politics and she will remain relevant as a great leader.

Ms. J. Jayalalitha (AIDMK)
She was a famous film star before entering into politics. She is the incumbent general secretary of All India Anna Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam (AIDMK) in the state of Tamil Nadu. She is popularly called Amma (mother) and Puratchi Thalaivi (Revolutionary Leader) by her followers.
In her horoscope Gemini was rising in the lagna. Moon is placed in Leo rashi. Sun is placed in Aquarius. The dasa running right now is of Rahu / Sun from 23/02/2009 to 17/01/2010. Sun is the 3rd lord placed in house of fortune indicating that in her leadership AIDMK will give tough fight to Karunanidhi. However, Jayalalitha is passing through the period of Sadhe Saati. There can be health related concerns for her during the current transit of Saturn. Electoral prospects for her are however good.

Ms. Mayawati (Bahujan Samaj Party)
She is the current Chief Minister of Uttar Pradesh. She has been the Chief Minister during three other short tenures in the past but her party holds absolute majority in the state as of date. She is the highest income-tax payer among all politicians in India paying Rs. 26 crore for year 2007-08. Coming from a dalit family, Mayawati made her way to the seat of chief Minister of Uttar Pradesh, the most populous state of India.
In her horoscope Capricorn was rising in the lagna. Moon is placed in Capricorn rashi. Sun is placed in Capricorn. The dasa running on her right now is of Saturn / Moon from 18/05/2008 to 18/12/2009. Moon is placed in the lagna and is placed well from the Mahadasa lord Saturn. Hence, electoral prospects for her are good. She will win more seats during this election as compared to the last election. However, she is having the transit of Saturn from the 8th house from Lagna and Moon; hence health issues can be there. She is advised to choose her ally carefully. It is likely that her allies may desert her. She will play a very important role in the formation of the next government in India.
