Now note the following pointers:
1.
Face: the calmness, charms, and politeness with little shyness are in
favor of the Virgo ascendant. The presence of Mars in the Virgo ascendant is able
to create Yoga for baldness.
2.
Nature: If Leo ascendant with Leo Navamsa and Leo Moon sign, then the
native must be aggressive in nature. This type of nature was not of Mr. Gandhi.
In spite of this, he was tolerant, calm, and shy full. These features are in
favor of the Virgo ascendant.
3.
Education: His education was interrupted, before obtaining the Bachelor`s
degree.
From Leo's ascendant, 5th
lord Jupiter in the ascendant with ascendant lord favors high education;
whereas from the Virgo ascendant the 5th lord is in the 10th
house and its rasi depositor is in the 12th house. The 5th
house is occupied by Ketu. This disposition suits his case.
4.
Occupation as a Pilot: From Virgo ascendant, the 10th house has an airy sign
Gemini, with an airy planet Saturn, which is further in the Navamsa of Airy
sign ruled by Airy planet! This disposition strongly favors his occupation as a
Pilot.
Whereas Leo's ascendant
fails miserably to prove his occupation as a Pilot or even a politician.
From Leo's ascendant,
the 10th lord Venus is in Leo Rasi in its own star and in close
conjunction with the Moon. In Navamsa, Venus is in Virgo rasi and again with
the Moon. This type of planetary position suggests some kind of occupation
related to the Moon and Venus.
5.
Love marriage abroad: From Leo ascendant, the 7th lord Saturn is in the 11th
house and aspect the ascendant and ascendant lord. It does not support foreign
marriage as the ascendant signifies the native place. Here it gets strength from the presence of the ascendant lord in the ascendant.
From Virgo ascendant,
the 7th lord is in the 12th with the 12th lord
Sun. The 12th house signifies a foreign place. This proves his marriage
abroad, with a foreigner.
It is necessary to
have the affliction of the 9th house for marrying out of religion.
From Leo's ascendant, the 9th house is aspected by its own lord Mars
and the divine planet Jupiter also aspects the 9th house. Both the
aspecting planets are exalted in Navamsa. How can they support marrying out of
religion!
Whereas from Virgo
ascendant, the 9th lord Venus is in the 12th house in
close proximity with its bitter enemy Moon. Moreover, it is being debilitated in
the Navamsa, supporting the fact of moving out of religion. This combination is
also bad for the pleasure of the father.
6.
Foreign stay and
return: From Leo ascendant, the ascendant is of fixed
nature; the ascendant lord is in the Navamsa of a fixed sign. These do not
support his long stay abroad, though the influence of the 12th lord
Moon may provide the chances of a foreign trip. But from Virgo ascendant, the
ascendant lord is in the 12th house with 12th lord. This
fully supports his long stay abroad. But in Chalit chart, they move to the
ascendant. This creates circumstances for his returning home.
According to sage
Satyacharya, the 7th house is the house of the foreign journey. Whenever
the 7th lord or its depositors makes an association with the 4th,
8th, or 12th house, then the possibility of a foreign
journey/stay is assured.
Here, with Leo
ascendant, the 7th lord is in the 11th house; its Rasi
depositor is in the ascendant and Navamsa depositor is in the 11th
(at his own Navamsa). Whereas from Virgo ascendant, the 7th lord is in
the 12th with its Rasi and Navamsa depositor.
7.
Child Aspect: From Leo's ascendant, Gulika is in the 5th within the
malefic aspect of Mars and Saturn; out of them one is the 6th lord, and the other is the Badhak lord. The 5th
cum natural significator of progeny Jupiter is combust and within the aspect of
the 6th lord Saturn. Though Jupiter is exalted in the Navamsa but
posited in the 12th house. These combinations are not fit for
health issues. The Virgo ascendant also has some affliction, but relatively
much less than those of Leo.
8.
Sudden rise and fall: The Moon is influenced by six planets through aspect and
conjunction, in both types of horoscopes. For the Leo ascendant, it takes place
in the ascendant, and for Virgo ascendant in the 12th house. It may
be known to the learned readers the nature and results of the 6th,
8th, 12th houses and these lords; if they provide
Rajyoga, it is not stable. After the Yoga effects, they also create some kind
of misfortune. This situation supports the Virgo ascendant with the infamous
Bofors scandal and untimely cruel death. The Leo ascendant does not support
this.
Again from Virgo
ascendant, 10th house posting, Saturn is famous for sudden rise and
fall.
From the Leo
ascendant, the 6th lord is in the 11th house. This is a
combination for defeating of enemy. Whereas from Virgo ascendant the 6th
lord is in the 10th house; which shows obstruction by the enemy in the
work. It is known to all that his name got involved in the Bofors scandal and
so he got defeated in the general election.
9.
Death: From the Leo ascendant, the 1st lord and the 8th
lord are conjunct in the ascendant, with benefic influence suggesting long
life, according to Prashna Marg. Whereas from Virgo ascendant, the 8th
lord alone is in the ascendant and the ascendant lord is in the 12th
house, with malefic in the angles, indicating only a medium life span.
From the Leo
ascendant, the 8th house gets three malefic aspects and the
ascendant has mixed influence. This may support his cruel end, but the 64th
navamsa sign from the ascendant is Scorpio and it is within the aspect of a benefic exalted planet; its lord Mars also receives the aspect of the same planet, Jupiter, in the Navamsa, though there is also the aspect of Saturn and Sun, Sun is the ascendant cum Navamsa lord posited in an Even mild sign Taurus.
Only Saturn`s aspect is considerable. But this is not sufficient to prove such
an explosive cruel death. The 8th sign of the Navamsa chart Pisces is a
mild and watery sign, and it has three benefic aspects in the Navamsa.
Any probable result by
the ascendant must be confirmed in the navamsa chart also for its execution.
The ascendant at the
time of his death (May 21, 1991 at 22h 15m at Sriperumbdur) was Sagittarius and
the Moon sign was Leo. Both were not trine or 6th, 8th,
12th or 7th from the 64th navamsa sign from
Leo ascendant. (Here I am not talking about the 64th navamsa sign
from the Moon sign, as it is the same in both types of horoscopes, and is
occupied by benefic Mercury in Navamsa.)
Whereas from Virgo
ascendant, the 8th house falls in a cruel sign Aries within the
aspect of fiery planet Mars, though it also gets the aspect of Jupiter. Here Jupiter
is in the 12th house with the 12th lord and spoilt by
Kendradhipatya Dosha. So it loses much of its beneficence.
The 64th
navamsa sign from the Virgo ascendant is also Aries, a cruel sign and has three
malefic aspects in Navamsa and the 8th sign from Navamsa ascendant
has four malefic influences with Gulika. The ascendant and Moon sign at the
time of his death are trine to this 64th navamsa sign Aries. So,
only Virgo ascendant with Capricorn Navamsa is able to explain the cruel nature
of his death.
There is a famous rule
that ‘square transit of Saturn from 64th Navamsa sign from the
ascendant or from ascendant lord causes the native`s death’. In my experience, a little more corrective
form of this rule is ‘ at the time of a native`s death, mostly Saturn transits
square to the 64th navamsa sign from ascendant or from the ascendant
lord, sometimes from the 22nd Drekkana sign from the ascendant and
rarely from the 8th sign from the ascendant.’
Now turn to Leo's ascendant, the 64th Navamsa sign from the ascendant is Scorpio, the 64th
navamsa sign from the ascendant lord is Leo, and the 22nd Drekkana sign from the ascendant is Scorpio as per Varah (I don`t agree with this kind of division, I
follow the continuous division of old Vedic style, supported by Pt Ram Yatna
Ojha and Sheshdri Ayer.) So, the 22nd Drekkana as per the old style is
Taurus and the 8th sign from the ascendant is Pisces; there is no square
transit of Saturn from these signs at the time of his death. Saturn was at sign
Capricorn. Whereas from the Virgo ascendant, the 64th Navamsa sign is
Aries, which is in full support to the rule.
10.
The 4th
house from Leo ascendant has only the malefic aspect of Rahu, its lord is
posited in the 2nd house, and in the Navamsa chart it is posited in
the 6th but in exaltation without any malefic aspect but within the
aspect of exalted benefic Jupiter though from the 12th house. This
planetary array is not a satisfactory disposition for the cruel end of his
mother.
Whereas from the Virgo
ascendant, the 4th house has three malefic influences with Gulika,
being posited there and its lord Jupiter being posited in the 12th house
with the 12th lord and also combust. The 4th house of the
Navamsa chart is also afflicted by the three malefic aspects of Saturn, Mars
and Rahu. This proves the mode of his mother`s death, in a better way.
The 4th
lord in both types of horoscopes is exalted and aspected by the exalted
planet in Navamsa chart showing the power and authority of his mother.
Mr. Gandhi was under
the influence of Jupiter`s sub-period in the major period of Rahu, on 31
October 1984.
Now treating the 4th
house as the ascendant of mother, in the Leo ascendant chart, Rahu is in the 9th
house and Jupiter in the 10th house with the 10th lord,
though the latter is with Sun. So, these Rahu and Jupiter have no sufficient
killing power to the signification of the 4th house.
Whereas from the Virgo
ascendant, Rahu is in the 8th house from the 4th house
and Jupiter is the 1st lord of the mother (4th lord from
ascendant) posited in the 9th house with Sun. The combust ascendant
lord within malefic influence can kill the native and the 8th house
positing Rahu has already the killing power to the 4th house or his
mother`s 1st house. So Rahu and Jupiter proved to kill planets to
the 4th house.
11.
His family
background: The available data about his family members create the
possibility that his birth ascendant as an Even sign is more probable than an odd
sign, due to the fact that his mother`s father Pt.Nehru, his mother Mrs. Indira
Gandhi, and his brother Sanjay Gandhi were born even ascendants. So, my conclusion about his birth ascendant is
justified.
