In Jyotish terms, it is said by some astrologers that a planet that is fallen

but retrograde is almost like an exalted planet - e.g., very, very strong

indeed. So, apparently, that is the case now for Jupiter in Capricorn.

What this means is that it will be just fallen, and not blessed by

retrogression, from October 13 until December 19, 2009, when it leaves its state

of debilitation for at least another decade.

(the dasha lord for the chart of the United States), enters Cancer, Mars'

debilitation sign, on October 4 and it stays there until May 26, 2010.

houses - the 5th (by opposition aspect), the 9th (ruled by the Sun), and the

11th house, where it will be placed by transit. Also, the Sun stands for

government, so perhaps we can expect some other financial crisis in our national

government at that time.

events. At last, Saturn leaves the enemy sign of Leo and enters the sign of its

great friend, Mercury, on about September 9, 2009. Also, Virgo (where Saturn

will be placed), will then be fully aspected by the divine Jupiter (also an

indicator of the U.S. as a whole). Therefore, I expect that we will have, more

or less, some kind of universal health care in America and that the new laws

regarding these matters will, most likely, be passed between September 9, 2009

and October 17, 2009. Saturn rules the working people and the sign of Virgo is

the natural sign for healthcare, so it makes sense - to me, at least.

motion, into Sagittarius and Gemini respectively. This indicates both good news

and bad news. Good news because they will no longer be casting their malevolent

glance on the US's sign of money, Capricorn. Not so good because they will be

negatively affecting the US chart's 1st house of the Self and 7th house of other

countries. As the 1st house is the main house of health, and both Rahu and Ketu

indicate possible epidemics or viruses, this could possibly indicate some

virulent health attack on the US population. However, once transiting Jupiter

enters sidereal Aquarius on December 19, 2009, it bodes very well for the US and

its foreign relations because Jupiter in Aquarius will:

then be in the US chart's 10th house, fully aspecting both the 4th house of real

estate and the 7th house (which, being 4th from the 4th, is a secondary real

estate house). I do think that there will be more government programs to help

working class people (indicated by Saturn) escape foreclosure, get cheaper

loans, and even acquire new homes in some parts of the country (probably out

West as Saturn rules the Westerly direction).

from a particle board self-assembly unit from Wal-mart to a perfectly preserved

antique made of rare wood by an exceptional furniture maker. So, to simply

remark that a person has an armoire reveals almost nothing except that they at

least own a piece of furniture. If one discovers that the armoire is a priceless

antique, the armoire starts to become a piece of furniture worth talking about.

And just as a single priceless antique in someone's home is unlikely to arouse

much talk, but a house full of priceless antiques becomes noteworthy, a single

yoga is unlikely to elevate a life to an exceptional level. But a horoscope full

of good yogas, in decent condition, will elevate that life, provided there is

not a relevant yoga

indication of Lakshmi yoga that does hold true for him is that of " best

vehicle. " He asked for and received a boat especially built for him in which he

won two around-the-world races. His Lakshmi yoga is weak for a number of

reasons. First of all, it is formed by only a single planet because Venus is the

ninth lord for Aquarius ascendant. Secondly, Venus does not participate in any

other yogas, and while the chart does contain some other nice dhana yogas in the

tenth house, they are not tied to the lagna lord who is Saturn and who is also

all by himself. And lastly, Aquarius people often do not successfully orient

around money because Jupiter is the lord of

His net worth was probably in the neighborhood of 100 million dollars. His

Lakshmi Yoga is beautifully formed with exalted Venus and swa Jupiter in the

ninth house. Plus, his lagna lord Moon is in the second house, making a good

dhana yoga opposite Sun in the eighth. However, the blight on both these yogas

that capped his prosperity at 100 million is the aspect of Rx Saturn from the

12th house. Saturn's aspect is potent because he is Rx, plus he is the lord of

the bad eighth house and he is aspecting from the twelfth house of loss.

Moon and the chart does contain other dhana yogas, neither Venus nor the Moon is

involved with any other planet, nor is Mars, the ascendant lord, who is

included in the yoga (although it is not part of its technical definition). This

is one of those charts where there are many, many yogas, most of which directly

involve the ascendant or its lord. This chart has the quantity and quality of

yogas needed to make a billionaire' s horoscope. Nearly every planet in the

chart must contribute something to wealth promotion for this outcome. And this

is the case in this horoscope. Firstly, the lagna lord Mars sits opposite

Jupiter in the ninth, directly involving it with the Lakshmi yoga. Secondly, the

fifth lord and eleventh lord sit opposite each other on the 1/7 axis. The lords

of 5 and 11 are another huge dhana yoga. This one is especially strong because

both Sun and Saturn are exalted, plus Saturn is Rx. This Saturn is also special

because it rules only positive

Arcaro's, it is an entirely different Saturn, because it makes yogas and owns

only positive houses. Nonetheless, it is still a Saturn aspect. Plus Mercury is

in the ascendant as the sixth lord aspected by Saturn, which is a poverty yoga.

These two factors weighted against all the good yogas are keeping him in the low

billions. Also, Venus participates in another dhana yoga with the Moon in the

eighth house. And there is a parivartana between Mars and Mercury, further

strengthening the lagna.

lord Mercury is exalted and participates in multiple dhana yogas with Mars and

the Moon, who also form a Chandra-Mangala yoga, another prosperity yoga. This

yoga really counts in this horoscope because both Mars and the Moon rule money

houses, the Moon is almost full, in a watery rashi, in the sign of a friend and

the whole yoga conjoins the lagnesha who is powerful. All of his yogas are

unafflicted by harassing planets with the exception of the Sun, lord of the

third who mildly afflicts his Lakshmi yoga; however, it is the Sun, who is cruel

but not really malefic, and is only the ruler of the third, a mild dussthana.
