Guest guest Posted September 29, 2001 Report Share Posted September 29, 2001 Om Gurave Namah ---------------------------- Shri Sanjay, Namaste. I submit the case 2 of Ishtadevata determination for your kind consideration. For casting the horoscope, I have adopted 6.00AM LMT as the sunrise time, as suggested in the article on " Hora " . I hope I understood it correctly. Case Study II : Sri Aurobindo Ghose 15 Aug, 1872 at about 1 ghati (i.e. 24 minutes) before sunrise at Calcutta, India. Explain the reason behind his great work Savitri (Savitur) and the interpretation of the Rig Veda.[29 Sept 2001] Date of Birth: August 15, 1872 Time of Birth: 5:36:00 am Time Zone of Birth: 5:30 East of GMT Longitude of Birth: 88 E 22 Latitude of Birth: 22 N 32 Lunar month (maasa): Sravana Lunar day (tithi): Sukla Ekadasi Tithi balance: 0.5170 Nakshatra balance: 0.5390 Sun-Moon Yoga: Vishkambha Mercury (lord of 2nd & 11th house) is AK, placed in the ascendant (Leo) with Sun, and 3rd and 10th lord Venus, showing high intellectual development and poetic skill, which he put to good use in his works. Though Mercury is considered a benefic, in the house of Sun and with the Sun, Mercury, by association, can become a malefic planet and indicates great spiritual developmet. AK aspects the Navamsa Lagna too and in D1, Leo is also the BL, HL, and GL, indicating alignment of all interests to achieve life's purpose. Sun is exalted in Navamsa in the 12th house and venus is in the 2nd house in AK's house (Gemini-indicating great felicity of thought, speech and writing). Venus aspects GL in Navamsa indicating name and fame connected with this activity. Sun's dominance in the chart and Venus+Mercury's influence would have made " Savitri " possible. Saturn along with Moon is in the 5th house (Sagittarius) indicating a renunciate of high order. In Navamsa also Saturn aspects Moon and Lagna reinforcing the same. From the moon sign, the Lagna becomes the 9th house and shows the religious/philosophical bent of mind of the native+ exalted Jupiter in the 12th from Lagna (8th from chandralagna) aspecting all the moksha houses and Ketu (in the 12th house from chandra lagna)would have imparted the intuition and wisdom that made the interpretation of " Rigveda " possible. Jupiter has neechabhanga in the 9th house in D9 too. Ishtadevata ---------------- 12th house from karakamsa, Libra (the house of Venus), does not contain any planets in it. Venus is also the Navamsa lagna lord. Venus indicates Lakshmi /Shakti or because of Sun's + Jupiter's influence on the 9th/12th houses in D1 & D9 charts, " Savitri " ( the presiding deity for " Gayatri mahamantra " , indicating all the three). The constant influence of Venus on AK and the placement of AK in the 7th from Navamsa lagna may indicate the native's great reverence for the Parasakti / Female Principle. I hope the errors I may have made in chart interpretation will be discussed, so that I can learn from my mistakes. Regards, Lakshmi Listen to your Mail messages from any phone. http://phone.
