Guest guest Posted December 27, 2004 Report Share Posted December 27, 2004 Hello Amit, Further to my message in reply to your message, let us see for example the chart of Sri Lanka where more than 13, 000 people have died. Sri Lanka is running the sub period of Ketu which exactly afflicts the lord of ascendant in the chart. Besides, there is a prolonged conjunction of the lord of the ascendant Venus with the most malefic planet, Mercury. This prolonged transit conjunction of Mercury and Venus is applicable in the case of India, as well.
