Chart of Pope John Paul II

[Guest guest]

Namaste friends,

 

I do not have the time to do a full analysis of Pope John Paul II's chart, but let me list some salient features of the chart for the benefit of others who may want to study his chart.

 

Birthdata:

 

18th May 1920

19e30, 49n53

Asc: 4Li31, Moon: 9Ta56

 

I will list some salient features of the chart.

 

(1) In rasi chart, lagna lord Venus and 9th lord Mercury have a close conjunction, giving a nice raja yoga relating to dharma and righteousness.

 

(2) Venus and Ketu are very closely conjoined within 11 arc-min and Saturn is in a trine from them. This results in Tapaswi yoga and makes him an austere, disciplined and selfless pursuer of some goal.

 

(3) Rasi chart has Saraswati yoga among other yogas and shows a scholar.

 

(4) Arudha lagna (AL) contains exalted Jupiter and shows the image of a wise and learned religious man. Mars in the 3rd from AL shows the image of a fearless person.

 

(5) In navamsa chart, Jupiter and Ketu have a kartari on lagna. Jupiter is the planet of dharma and religion. Ketu is the planet of parampara (lineage). Yoga of Jupiter and Ketu on navamsa lagna shows that the native upholds and spreads a religious lineage.

 

(6) In dasamsa chart, 7th lord Venus and lagna lord Ketu occupy lagna. Both are in a dasamsa controlled by Isaana!! You find planets in dasamsas controlled by Isaana influencing lagna in the charts of priests and religious people. (You can find the controlling deities of various dasamsas and other amsas under "Amsa rulers" sub-tab in "Basics" tab in JHora 7.02.)

 

(7) Other lagna lord Mars is in a dasamsa controlled by Indra and has a raja yoga with 10th lord Sun and occupies AL. Planets in Indra's dasamsa show power and authority, especially when they are associated with lagna, AL and ghati lagna (which is the case here with Mars).

 

Factors (6) and (7) show a powerful and influential priest. Interestingly, it was in the Dwisaptati sama dasa of Mars that he became Pope. As lagna lord is in 7th in rasi chart, Dwisaptati sama dasa is the right nakshatra dasa for him.

 

(8) The vimsamsa chart has Dharma-Karmadhipati yoga. The 9th lord Jupiter is in 10th and 10th lord Mars is in 9th. This shows a lot of dharmik karma relating to spirituality.

 

(9) Lagna lord Moon is in 12th in vimsamsa with Venus and nodes. This strong 12th house (moksha sthana and upasana sthana) shows a lot of meditation and submitting oneself to god.

 

(10) At the time of death, he was running Venus-Sun antardasa as per Dwisaptati sama dasa. Venus is the 2nd lord and Sun is the occupant of the 2nd house, in D-30.

 

Because the time of his death is recorded accurately, it is possible to say something about the after-life based on the death chart. I will try to write about it after a couple of weeks.
