Saptarishis Astrology Dedicates Ravana Samhita to their Late Friend Lois Rodden who asked them not to give up on astrology due to attitude of astrologers.
lanets give different phalas (results) in each of the 27 nakshatras (lunar mansions). These results (phalas) relate to the quarter (charana/pada) of a nakshatra in which a planet is placed and the dristhi (aspect) of other planets that it receives. The beauty of Ravana Samhita is that a planet in one pada might give problematical results, whereas in the next pada of the same nakshatra it can give fortunate results. This difference is subtly highlighted and an intelligent student must not ignore as this information is not found elsewhere in any work. Here follows the seventh in this series of translations of Ravana Samhita, relating to the seventh asterism Punarvasu, which stretches from 80 degrees to 93 degrees-20 minutes of the natural zodiac i.e. from 20 deg Gemini to 3

deg 20 minutes in Cancer. The Lord of this nakshatra is Jupiter. The easiest way to interpret the result of any graha in any asterism is to note down its nakshatra lord & also the lord of the sign it is placed in, these two planets will always influence the results of the planets placed in the said nakshatra.

unarvasu constellation is the 7th constellation located in the sign of Gemini & has the Navamsas of Mars, Venus, Mercury & Moon. 1st Navamsa is that of Aries, 2nd Navamsa is that of Taurus, 3rd Navamsa is that of Gemini, 4th Navamsa is that of Cancer. This must be borne in mind when reading the results of various 4 padas (quarters) as per some scholars, at times one finds the traits of the navamsa sign and lord giving results as per padas but at times it does not make sense. The toughest part of astrology for the nonobsessive predictors that is the Real Explorers is to understand why the Rishi has given such and such a result, to understand the basis of the results given in classics for a particular combination but unfortunately the sages never explained the reasoning nor have the past scholars been successful in explaining it all. Please note that it is very difficult to find charts where planet would be in exact pada and it takes a long time to find one, here a young promising astrologer from Ranchi, India Mr Ashutosh Kumar, a new entrant in the Saptarishis Astrology family having a huge collection of data has painstakingly worked on it for 3 full days and found some real life examples from his collection and helped in this article. So at times we have taken charts examples, ignoring the pada number given by Ravana and only tried to understand if the results in actual charts are atleast nearby. This will be followed in all examples. True to the nature of the Expansive Jupiter, its nakshatra lord this Punarvasu nakshatra piece has become one of the biggest articles in the Ravana Samhita series.

Punarvasu Nakshatra
Sun In Punarvasu
If Moon aspects Sun, then, the native fears his relatives. Even though staying away from ones native place one is unable to gain enough wealth. If Mars aspects, the native is lazy and remains fearful of the enemies. If Mercury aspects, the native suffers on account of ones children, but, gains securities from the government. If Jupiter aspects, the native is able and an expert in Tantra-Mantra and Astrology. The native has differences in opinion with his wife and children. If Venus aspects, the native goes to foreign lands, gains immense wealth and governmental support, but, gets injured by weapons and fire. If Saturn aspects, the native takes to foul/impure work and is cruel to the subordinates, but, is responsible and dedicated towards the work.
SA Commentary: The benefit out of such verses in Ravana Samhita is not to prove if the verse works on all charts with similar combinations but to arrive at the reasoning behind such statements of King Ravana, but even to understand the logic behind the basic traits of a graha mentioned in classics is not easy for even the Gurus or scholars, how can we arrive at such intrinsic results given in such a rare work of the Great Ravana. But an effort needs to be made, first to test if these principles are working on some charts (a) and then to find charts where combination is there but the result is not being arrived at (b). Then to think deeply as to the reason it is not working (c) by first finding out the logic behind Ravanas statements. Here we will limit ourselves to (a) and leave the rest due to our incapability. Some examples follow.

Saturn Aspects Sun in Punarvasu

Example 1: Berger, Gottlob an SS German General

avana says if Saturn aspects Sun in Punarvasu (irrespective of pada it seems) then native will do foul or impure work, be cruel to subordinates but will be dedicated towards the work.

German military, an SS General and one of Himmler's foremost experts on racial selection. As Commander of military operations in Slovakia in 1944, he showed brutal efficiency. On 2nd April 1949, he was tried for war crimes and given 25 years, of which he served 6 1/2 years in prison. Re-read what Ravana wrote, Sun is in Punarvasu in 11H aspected by Saturn from the 2H of administration, in Saturn MD and Saturn AD in 1944 he showed brutality in Slovakia and this is as per the Ravana text, Mr Berger was very dedicated in his work too and be cruel to sub-ordinates, which should be interpretated here as people he considered lower than him. Example 2: Gallego, Gerald Serial Killer

American homicide; a serial killer with his wife Charlene, convicted of ten kidnap-rape-sexmurders between 12 Sept 1978 and 1 Nov 1980. They were the rarest of breeds among homicide cases, the husband and wife team. He had spent five years in reformatories and six years in prisons by the time he met Charlene Williams on 10 Sept 1977. Both were sexually deviant, involved in freak scenes and sadomasochism. They worked out an easy method of operation. Charlene would entice young girls into their van and they would abduct them, driving to a remote place where they would indulge in whatever sex and torture scenario they chose. Gerald would then kill the girls and bury or dispose of their bodies. Again in the above chart you would find Sun is in Punarvasu and Saturn is in the same house though in different nakshatra but being only 3 degrees from the Sun its power on Sun is tremendous. All this Sun Saturn play indicates as per Ravana that some impure action can happen, this happening in the 12H of sex and torture and imprisonment. Use the method previously written in SA volumes that Rahu implements itself in the 3rd from it and this Rahu (maniac activity) is influencing this Sat-Sun combo in Punarvasu and it was during Sept 78 to Nov 80 when Saturn dasa had started they committed their crime. In both above cases you can see how easily Saturn dasa has been operative, giving some hint that this verse by Ravana cannot be easily ignored.

Venus Aspects Sun in Punarvasu

avana says that if Sun is in Punarvasu & aspected (associated) by Venus the native goes to foreign lands, gains immense wealth and governmental support, but, gets injured by weapons and fire. Out of a search for Sun in Punarvasu, with criteria of accidents/deaths in fire or by weapons, we got around 15 plus charts but in all Venus was loosely conjunct in 2 cases but in all cases it was 1 or 2 signs ahead or behind Sun hence it cannot be taken at all. But in the following 3 cases one can see Ravanas principle working to some extent. Example 1: Croteau, Robert Nightclub Fire Death

American victim of nightclub fire, this landscaper was a huge sports and music fan. His father noted that Robert was the inquisitive sort who loved being outdoors. He leaves his parents and four brothers. As you can see from the chart Sun the 12L of exit is in Punarvasu, associated with Venus in the same house but in Rahus nakshatra, Rahu sits in the 5H of music fan, and he died of nightclub fire whereas Ravana says injured by weapons and fire. One can note that Sun Venus is in the 6th house of accidents from 5H of obsession and Sun is the 12L of night. He died on 20th Feb 2003 when Rahu PD (Nak lord of Venus) was running in Mer MD (Venus Sun in Mer sign). Example 2: Patino, Juan David Boeing Crash

American accidental fatality, killed in the crash of the Avianca Boeing-707 travelling from Columbia to New York which ran out of fuel and crashed in Cove Neck, NY January, 1990. His grandparents survived the crash. One can see that Sun is in Punarvasu Asterism in the 6th house of accidents along with Venus, thereby satisfying Ravanas criteria of Venus associating with Sun. It is doubly strong as it is with Rahu (sudden) and 6L of accidents Mer (travelling). He died of the crash while travelling.

Example 3: Amundsen, Roald Norwegian Explorer -Seaplane Accident

Norwegian scientific polar explorer, the first person to sail through the northwest passage. He discovered the South Pole in 1911 as the first to reach and record his passage. He also flew over the North Pole in a dirigible three days after Byrd's air expedition, arriving there 12 May 1926. Amundsen died in a seaplane accident in the Arctic Ocean 18th June 1928. The time of birth is not validated and gets a C rating but even approximate time of birth wont change the nakshatras of Sun Venus who both are in Punarvasu, he died of a sea plane accident.

Sun in 1st Pada 20 deg Gemini to 23.20 deg Gemini Navamsa of Aries If Sun is in the first part (charan/pada), the native is highly educated, wealthy and a writer of astrology books. The fortune rises after the age of 38 years. Some saint shall bless the native and bestow godly qualities. The native is loved by all.
SA Commentary: Example 1: Sun in 1st Pada Astrology As per the above text of Ravana Samhita if Sun is in the 1st quarter of Punarvasu nakshatra then native is wealthy & has astrology orientation, here in this chart you find that Sun is in Punarvasu nakshatra 1st quarter. Native is an educated and wealthy person. He has keen interest in astrology. He is 32 years old and he believes in God. Some prediction of this Samhita is exactly working out in this chart.

Example 2: Lohlein, Herbert A. 45 Astrology books writer

As per our text Ravana Samhita, other areas of rise in fortune or blessed by a saint is difficult to find out in known charts, but what does stand out is writer of astrology books and after our search we found out 8 charts of international astrologers who are writers of astrology books. The above chart belongs to Lohlein, Herbert A. a German newspaper astrologer, columnist and writer. Representing serious, popular astrology, he was the author of over 45 astrology books, including "Handbook of Astrology" and "Stars, Fate and Character." You can see that Sun is in Punarvasu in the 1st quarter (pada/charan) which matches our text and is BK (writer) in the 11H of astrology and is with Venus the 3L & 10 L which is retrograde which shows extreme past life desire to write these books aspected by Saturn R who is dispositor of A3 (writing), no doubt he wrote so many books (Saturn). Example 2: Guttman, Ariel Astrology Writer

American pro astrologer involved with astrological research, writing, lecturing, teaching and counselling since 1975. Arielle is the author of one book and co-author of two books; "Astro-Compatibility," The Astro*Carto*Graphy Book of Maps" with Jim Lewis, and "Mythic Astrology" with Kenneth Johnson. She maintains a busy counselling practice and pursues her special interest in relocation astrology at her home in Santa Fe, NM. As you can see Sun is in Punarvasu in the 1st quarter and the most interesting part is see where the Sun is it in the 4H of residence/location and she does Relocational Astrology and wrote books on it, dont forget that this Punarvasu 1st quarter Sun is BK (writing). Example 3: Perry, Glenn Western Astrology Writer

American pro astrologer, editor and publisher. Perry is the founder and president of the Association for Astrological Psychology and former editor-publisher of the Journal of Astro-Psychology. The author of "Post-Modern Astrology, Theory and Practice," Perry has published over 30 articles on psychological astrology. One can notice is that Sun is in Punarvasu 1st quarter in the 3H of writing and is BK again (writing) along with Mercury the planet of writing. Other Charts with Sun in Punarvasu & Astrology Writer 1) Name: PUTTE, M.H.

After 1980 he gave courses and lectures and, from 1981, wrote course material and articles in magazines. Two years later, he became involved in the Swedish Astrologiska Riksforbund foundation.

Sun in 2nd Pada 23.20 deg Gemini to 26.40 deg Gemini Navamsa of Taurus (Pushkara Navamsa) If Sun is in the second part (charan/pada), the native is an expert in mathematics, languages, is clever in making estimations and is a high quality administrator. The native gains high position in politics and social work. The complexion is yellow.
SA Commentary: Example: Sun in 2nd Pada Astrology

In the above chart Sun is in the 2nd pada, you can see that the text says such a native will be an expert in mathematics, this need not be the case for all having Sun in Punarvasu in 2nd pada but in this case this native from Gopalgang Bihar, is an expert mathematician working in an MNC. Example 2: Cartan, Henri - French mathematician French mathematician and noted family, the son of distinguished mathematician lie-Joseph Cartan. Known for making fundamental advances in the theory of analytic functions, Cartan published several important works including "Homological Algebra," 1956, and "Elementary Theory of Analytic Functions of One or Several Complex Variables," 1963. Cartans academic career began in 1928 when he was the professor of mathematics at the Lyce Caen. One year later he was appointed deputy professor at the University of Lille where he stayed for two years prior to becoming professor of mathematics at the University of Strasbourg. From 1940-69, he was on the faculty of the University of Paris, and from 197075, he taught at Orsay. Cartan was made a Fellow of the Royal Society of London in 1971, and made an honorary member of the London Mathematical Society in 1959. Cartan was married and had five children.

As you can see the Sun of Cartan, the noted French mathematician is in the 2nd pada of Punarvasu and as per the text he is was a mathematician.

Sun in 3rd Pada 26.40 deg Gemini to 30.00 deg Gemini Navamsa of Gemini (Vargottama Navamsa) If Sun is in the third part (charan/pada), the native becomes an administrator in the government or a minister. Help comes from political friends. For some time the native shall remain involved with studying and writing.
SA Commentary: Sun in 3rd Pada Examples
Example 1: Adams, John Quincy American President

American President 1825-1899. His time of birth is suspect. He had four public careers; diplomat, law-maker, Secretary of State and President. A Harvard graduate in 1787, Adams was admitted to the bar in 1790 and opened a law office in Boston. He was elected to the Senate in 1802 where he served until 1808. Under Madison, he was Minister to Russia and then to England, becoming Monroe's Secretary of State 1817-25. Adams was inaugurated the U.S. 6th President on 4th Mar 1825. In 1828 he was badly defeated for re-election by Andrew Jackson. After 1831, he was actively opposed to slavery.

Ravana Samhita says that Sun in 3rd quarter of Punarvasu nakshatra becomes administrator in the govt or a minister, here in US President Quincy Adams chart you would find the technique working with Sun in the 10H of political life containing Saturn in 10H an oft seen combination in politicians. Example 2: Fuller, Buckminister writer of 20 books

American scientist, the brilliant engineer-inventor of the Geodesic dome which combines a series of tetrahedron skeletons, a writer and lecturer. Labelled both a crackpot and a genius, he was awarded nearly 40 honorary degrees from universities in the U.S. and the UK and was the author of 20 books, including his perhaps best-known work, "Operating Manual for Spaceship Earth," 1970. Ravana Samhita says Sun in 3rd pada will give for some time involvement with studying and writing, though most charts around 11 were of politicians that we got in our data search and only of 3 writers, here in Buckministers case, the Sun is in the 2H in 3rd pada with Jupiter who is BK (writing) and as it is Punarvasu one can note that Sun is in the Jupiters (BK-writers) nakshatra in this case along with a retro Mer. Special Note: Bucky, as he was affectionately known, died of a heart attack on 7/01/1983 while at the hospital visiting his ailing wife, Los Angeles, CA. Please refer to the above chart and use the BSP-15 method on Graha sutras on Venus and disease/death. Example 3: Silva, Anibal Portugal President

Portuguese politician, elected President of the country on January 22, 2006. Prior to that he served for ten years as Prime Minister, from November 6, 1985 to October 28, 1995, the longest of any democratically elected Prime Minister in Portuguese history. During those ten years, he set another record when he won an absolute parliamentary majority and then repeated that feat. With a doctorate from the University of York, he began his career as a college professor of economics (note Ketu in 10H). In 1980 he entered politics when he was appointed Minister of Finance by then-Prime Minister Francisco S Carneiro. Sun in 3rd pada of Punarvasu being 2L of administration has given him high govt posts being associated with 4L Venus and also Venus is MK (Throne) in 7 Charakaraka scheme, in 8 it wont make sense. In 1985 when he became Prime Minister for a long streak of 10 years a record in Portugal, just 4 months before his Chara Dasa of the 5H of Power had started that is Sc (KNR-Vemuri Shastry Version) whereas Narayana Dasa of Sc starts in 1984, in this case KNRs version of Rasi dasa is easy to identify the period with Sc lord in 10H of political power and co-lord Mars exalted in 7H of public platform. Other Examples Of Political Power 1) Name: SQUIRE, ROBIN CLIFFORD, Date: 7/12/1944, Time: 23:57 GDWT (+0:00), Gender: M, Place: Epsom, England, Lat: 51 N 20, Lng: 00 W 16 Biography: British politician, a Member of Parliament returned at General Election on 6/11/1987. 2) Name: VENTURA, JESSE, Date: 7/15/1951, Time: 03:00 CST (+6:00), Gender: M, Place: Minneapolis, MN, Lat: 44 N 58, Lng: 93 W 15 Biography: American politician, formerly a professional wrestler.

Sun in 4th Pada 0 deg Cancer to 03.20 deg Cancer Navamsa of Cancer (Pushkara & Vargottama Navamsa) If Sun is in the fourth part (charan/pada), the native is afflicted with difficult diseases; remains drowned in debt and carry his life in poverty. Through paltry trade dealings the debt is payed pack. There is suffering from indigestion and on account of eye problems.
SA Commentary: Around 301 cases were found with Sun in Punarvasu in the 4th quarter via the ADB software but only one contained case of bankruptcy, maybe our limitation in search abilities showed up. See one case below of eye problems Example 1: Misfortune 44511 Eye Problem

Sun is in the 4th pada of Punarvasu and as per Ravana Samhita it can give eye troubles or afflictions of difficult diseases. Here is chart of a British male, who lost the sight of his left eye as a result of splintered glass in a slight railway accident, age 28. Example 2: Odets, Clifford

American playwright, actor, director and artist. A leading U.S. playwright in the '30s, his works are marked by a strong social conscience which grew out of the Great Depression. He died of cancer on 8/15/1963, Los Angeles, CA. This chart has Sun in 4th pada of Punarvasu and as per the text it should have a difficult disease where the native died of cancer. Other Examples 1) Name: AIDS 19305, Date: 7/16/1945, Time: 09:30 BZT (+3:00), Gender: M, Place: Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, Lat: 22 S 54, Lng: 43 W 14 Biography: Brazilian male: AIDS 2) Name: SUTHERLAND, DONALD, Date: 7/17/1935, Time: 11:30 ADT (+4:00), Gender: M, Place: St. John, Canada, Lat: 45 N 16, Lng: 66 W 03 Biography: Canadian-American actor onscreen from 1963 in a variety of character and lead roles ranging from the stage to TV series.

Moon In Punarvasu
If Sun aspects Moon, then, the native is intelligent, honourable, but, poor. If Mars aspects, the native is kind, intelligent and gains wealth through science related work. If Mercury aspects, then, the native gains favours from the government. If Jupiter aspects, the natives work is appreciated and respect is earned in society. If Venus aspects, then, all joy of life are gained. If Saturn aspects, the native is divorced from his wealth, family and wife.

SA Commentary: Ravana says that Moon if in Punarvasu and Mars is aspecting it, wealth through science related work can happen. We got a total of 14 charts of scientists where Moon is in Punarvasu but only in 2 Mars was aspecting. Example 1: Oppenheimer, Robert American Nuclear Physicist dubbed Father of Atom Bomb.

American scientist, a nuclear physicist and head of the Atomic Energy Commission's General Advisory Committee 1947-1952. He was known as the "Father Of The Atom Bomb." Declared a security risk in 1953, he became head of the Institute of Advanced Study at Princeton, 1953-1966, and received the Fermi Award in 1963. You can see that Ravanas rule of Moon in Punarvasu aspected by Mars is satisfied here to give him gains through science related work. Example 2: Fechner, Gustav German Physicist German philosopher, psychologist, naturalist and physicist. He studied the relationship between the strength of stimulus and the intensity of sensation, therefore discovering and developing "psycho-physics." Fechner died 11/18/1887, Leifzig. He has Moon in Punarvasu conjunct Mars and thus Ravanas rule is applying here giving gains through science related work and a very intelligent man.

Moon in 1st Pada 20 deg Gemini to 23.20 deg Gemini Navamsa of Aries If Moon is in the first part (charan/pada), the natives body is free from blemishes. The native having a sweet and pleasant nature is raised by two mothers. The native has more daughters than sons.

 Wealth is gained number of times in life. There are adequate brothers and sisters. The enemies fear the native. This native can multi-task different activities and earns respect of the learned and the wise. Moon in 2nd Pada 23.20 deg Gemini to 26.40 deg Gemini Navamsa of Taurus (Pushkara Navamsa) If Moon is in the second part (charan/pada), the native is adored by the women. He is an expert in womens diseases and sexual diseases. He is attached to bad habits. He works as a top scientist, an ambassador or a representative. He marries more than once and after marriage continues to associate with other women. Moon in 3rd Pada 26.40 deg Gemini to 30.00 deg Gemini Navamsa of Gemini (Vargottama Navamsa) If the Moon is in the third part (charan/pada), the native is clever, fond of gambling, sensual pleasures and music. If Moon is with Mercury, then, the native is humble, an expert in discrimination, reasoning and judgements in the subject of languages and is respected. If Saturn affects Moon, then the native loses happiness from father.
SA Commentary: avana says Moon in Punarvasu 3rd pada can make one fond of gambling, sensual pleasures and music. Let us see charts of some natives without judging as to what or why they are doing it.

Example 1: Brazilian Prostitute Sensual Pleasures

Moon is in 3rd pada of Punarvasu and as per Ravana Samhita such a native can be fond of sensual pleasures, this native is from Brazilian Prostitute. Example 2: Evans, Eric gay video porn star

The Moon is in 3rd pada of Punarvasu and the native Eric Evans is an American gay video porn star. The time of birth is suspect but still if we take it as correct we can see that Moon is in the 3rd house of TV and Video and the native being fond of sensual pleasures has taken up Gay Videos as a professional. It does not mean that all having Moon in 3rd pada of Punarvasu will be fond of sensual pleasures and subsequently take up that as a profession and hence if we search more we would find that David Hasselhoff & Harrison Ford also share Moon in 3rd pada of Punarvasu

Moon in 4th Pada 0 deg Cancer to 03.20 deg Cancer Navamsa of Cancer (Pushkara & Vargottama Navamsa) If Moon is in the fourth part (charan/pada), the native is expert in the art of lovemaking, and is a celebrated prose writer. He is fond of eating and has reddish eyes (especially the ones wherein the blood vessels can be seen). If Mars aspects this Moon, then, the native is attached to black and illegal money. For the same he mortgages his wealth and possessions. If Jupiter aspects, then, he becomes the head of the family and is wealthy and respectable.
SA Commentary avana says that if Moon is in 4th pada of Punarvasu and aspected (associated) by Mars, the native resorts to black and illegal money and in the next he says if Jupiters aspects then he becomes the head of the family and is wealthy and respectable presuming that Jupiters aspect is good. Lets see the below example

Example 1: Anastasia, Albert Italian Mafia Head Moon in the above chart is in the 4th quarter of Punarvasu and also associated with Mars which as per Ravana can (note can) indicate black money and illegal money. The native was Italian mafia chief, gangster and killer. He was shot to death while in the barber's chair 10/25/1957, New York, NY. The moment we read he was shot dead in barbers chair, then while constructing the chart in the software we were anxious to see which planet is in the 3H and we were expecting something to do with Saturn but incidentally Saturn is not there but Jupiter, a debilitated Jupiter in Saturns house, then we checked the dasa at the time of death it was Jupiters sub period (AD) not to our surprise. And as you can see Ravana also says that if Jupiter aspects this Moon placed in 4th pada of Punarvasu the native will be head of family, here he being a Mafia boss and that too Italian, one can expect him to be the Head of his family a la Godfather but since Jup is retro and debilitated things turned otherwise.

Example 2: James, Jesse American Noted Outlaw American noted outlaw, famed along with his brother Frank leading a gang in the old west. Noted for his unerring pistol accuracy, he was a dangerous killer as well as a robber. A huge reward for that time period ($10,000) was placed on his head dead or alive and one of his own gang members shot him in the head, at home with his wife and two small kids. He died immediately, 3rd April 1882, St. Joseph, MO. Again as per Ravanas text it matches the native has Moon in 4th pada of Punarvasu, getting the 4th aspect of Mars from sign of head, the native was a robber and procured illegal money, matching with the text of the illustrious Ravana.

Mars In Punarvasu
If Sun aspects Mars, then, the native is very wise, wealthy and possess inner strength and patience. If Moon aspects, then, the native provide service in security agency or army and fills his stomach and remains happy amongst the company of women. If Mercury aspects, then, the native is a mathematician, a lover of poetry and music and a liar. If Jupiter aspects, then, the native faces difficulties in foreign lands. After 40 years an excellent situation arises and the native remains happy.

 If Venus aspects, then, the native spends most of time in the company of characterless women and through criminal and unethical acts one accumulates wealth. If Saturn aspects, then, the native is a deceiver, is lazy and gains wealth through trade of wood and objects obtained from the jungles.
SA Commentary: Ravana says that if Mars is in Punarvasu and Mercury aspects then native is either a mathematician or lover of poetry and music. Out of a total of 96 charts of mathematicians none had Mars in Punarvasu and with Mars in Punarvasu we got 16 poets. But in these 16 poets there was no aspect of Mer on Mars, but an interesting thing emerged is Mars and Mer in these 16 were mainly in 3/11 position to each other, many a times Mer was in the 3rd to Mars or Mars was in 3rd to Mer signifying the 3H of writing. When we expanded the search to include musicians/music related professionals we got 78 charts of Mars in Punarvasu. Out of these few had Mars Mer conjunction in Punarvasu, but many of them still had Mars and Mer in 3/11 to each other which is again significant and worth exploring further. Example 1: Dolly Parton Mer aspects Mars in Punarvasu American country singer, songwriter, actress; small, buxom and endearing with a cheerful genuine sweetness. Parton came up from being dirt poor to country music stardom in the 1970s. She has written more than 3,000 songs, including "I Will Always Love You" which Whitney Houston shot up to the top of the pop charts in 1992. She has written her autobiography for Harper Collins, "Dolly: My Life and Other Unfinished Business," 1994.

Mars is in Punarvasu in the 11H and aspected by Mer from the 5H of entertainment. Example 2: Schumann-Heink, Ernestine Austrian Opera Singer

Austrian opera singer who sang oratorios, concerts, in movies and vaudeville. She sang at the Metropolitan Opera House in 1899. She died of leukaemia on 17th Nov 1936. You can see that Mars is in Punarvasu and Mercury is also in Punarvasu in the 3H of singing. Example 3: Ralston, Bob American Musician American musician, a pianist and organist who achieved a level of fame on Lawrence Welk Show. Ralston has recorded over 300 record albums including 31 solo albums. In 1963 he joined the Lawrence Welk Champagne Music Makers and was a regular on the Lawrece Welk Show until its demise in 1981. In all, he spent 40+ years with the orchestra as pianist/organist and arranger. Ralston has produced several videos and still gives concerts in his 70s. If you notice his Mars and Mer both are in Punarvasu aspecting 3H of hands (he was a pianist and organist).

avana further says that if Mars is in Punarvasu and aspected (associated) by Saturn, it indicates that the native can be a deceiver. Let us see some examples of financial deceivers only.

Example 1: Louarn, Max Piracy

French-American producer of computer software, responsible for the sale of Nintendo network and video games. He went to prison in Virginia for piracy, reproducing computer disks illegally. You can see that his Mars is in Punarvasu with Ketu (computers) in 6H of law and aspected by Saturn, he went to prison for reproducing computer disks illegally.

Example 2: Ambrosio, Francesco Italian Millionaire Italian millionaire, jailed for embezzlement March 1975.

Though Mars and Saturn are in two different houses but association of Saturn on Mars is through both being in the same nakshatra which is Punarvasu. One can note that Saturn AD in Moola Dasa of karmic retribution was when he got jailed. In Kalachakra dasa the sign of was Saturn (Cn) MD and AD was of Li and PD was of 6 months of Ge where Mars is placed. Example 3: Belge, Francis le French Last Godfather

French Mafia figure, France's last godfather. The son of a Flemish dock worker and an Algerian-born Spanish mother, he was brought up in the streets where he learned as a kid to emulate Lucky Luciano and Al Capone. At 23 he was already figuring on the police's file of organized crime as being a member of the French connection of drug running. You can notice that Saturns association is on Mars by both of them being in the same nakshatra of Punarvasu in the 1H of Life, his whole life was the Mafia. On3/16/1978, Belge was sentenced to 14 years in jail for heroin traffic. In the major part of the Saturn Mahadasa he was in jail for 14 years.

Mars in 1st Pada 20 deg Gemini to 23.20 deg Gemini Navamsa of Aries If Mars is in the first part, then, the native gains wealth by trading in herbs. Women born in this part of the nakshatra are deceivers, stubborn, characterless and riddled with diseases and experts in looting other peoples wealth.
SA Commentary: Ravana says that Mars in 1st pada and if a woman then experts in looting other peoples wealth, we could not find in our limited time charts of women with such combination but it in a males chart. Example 1: Lord Byron British Nobility British nobility, the sixth Lord Byron and one of the great romantic poets of the English language. Deeply in debt, he made an advantageous marriage in 1815. As you can see Mars is in the 1st pada of Punarvasu in the 1H (double AA rating for time of birth) of character with Mars being 11L of marriage, it is written that he did an advantageous marriage. Also previously Ravana has written that when Mercury aspects the Mars in Punarvasu it makes one a poet, Lord Byron was known for his poetry. His epic poem, "Childe Harold's Pilgrimage," begun in 1812, made him a celebrity, but his affairs outraged London society and he was forced into exile in 1815 after a scandal over a liaison with his half-sister, Augusta Leigh. Mars is karaka for siblings.

Mars in 2nd Pada 23.20 deg Gemini to 26.40 deg Gemini Navamsa of Taurus (Pushkara Navamsa) If Mars is in the second part, then, the native is skilled in warfare and envious of the progress of others. He gains wealth through sale and purchase of items and stock (like purchase function in a company). He remains sick due to many different diseases. Mars in 3rd Pada 26.40 deg Gemini to 30.00 deg Gemini Navamsa of Gemini (Vargottama Navamsa) If Mars is in the third part, then, the native is forever busy in wealth and securities, the means to get more and in seeking sensual pleasures. This native has a disposition of providing service and spends money on important people of the society.

Mars in 4th Pada 0 deg Cancer to 03.20 deg Cancer Navamsa of Cancer (Pushkara & Vargottama Navamsa) If Mars is in the fourth part, then, the native gains wealth via writing. He enjoys life to the fullest. There remains a possibility of having vehicular accidents. He has blood disorders and sexual diseases. Women have bodily difficulties.
SA Commentary Ravana says that Mars in 4th pada then native gains wealth via writing and possibility of vehicular accidents and blood disorders and sexual disorders. Mainly here the wealth via writing would be examined but before we forget one can note that Cheiro had Mars in Punarvasu in the 4th pada in the 9H of higher knowledge (lets not forget the knowledge what he attained in astro-palmistry none of us know it today) aspecting his 3H of writing and also 3L of writing. Cheiros books after so many decades are best sellers and what most of us have started our astro careers with here in India. In total 52 writers charts were found in ADB with Mars in 4th Pada of Punarvasu. Example 1: Accident yoga given by Ashutosh

The native enjoys his life fully. He is very humorous person. 8 to 10 times he got accident while driving vehicle. Example 2: Stephen King Writer & Accident Yoga Ravana says that Mars in 4th pada can give wealth via writing. Chart below belongs to Stephen Ling, American prolific writer and screenwriter. A former English teacher, he accomplished the feat of writing more than 40 successful horror novels by 1999 with the first, "Carrie," published in 1974. Movies were made of 26 of his books; he wrote the screenplays for five and did bit parts in three. King's last two years' income has been $22 million and his entire product grosses more than $100 million per year. His books have sold over 100 million copies in 33 languages. Note the 3/11 condition of Mars and Mer in Stephens chart. Ravana also says that this Mars in 4th pada can give accidents. Please see how this works in Stephens chart but dont forget that Mars is GK (accidents) & also is the 6L of accidents in D6 (accidents) sitting in Lagna (Body) in D1 (this technique of bring divisional lord in D1 was hinted first by C S Patel in his books but it has gone unnoticed by scholars and subsequently unappreciated). Stephen King while out walking on 19th June 1999 near Lake Kezar, ME., he was struck by a van and seriously injured. First taken to a hospital in Bridgton, he was then flown to a trauma center at Central Maine Medical Center. No charges have been filed against the driver of the van; he was not speeding and just lost control while trying to subdue a loose dog inside his van. King was operated on three times over five days to stabilize a collapsed lung and multiple fractures to his right leg and hip. He had a long period of recovery from devastating injuries that left him on crutches, losing 100 lbs. In a strange twist of fate, Bryan Smith, the man whose van had hit King, was found dead of no known cause on 9/22/2000 in his mobile home. Ravana gives Mars in 4th pada as accident as a result and on 19th June 1999 Stephen King

was running Moola Dasa AD of Mars & in Vimshottari Dasa his Mars AD was just about to start in 10 days (with 365 days calculation) and with 360 days calculation he was already running Mars MD the planet listed for 4 pada of Punarvasu.

Example 2: George Lucas Writer, Director & Accident Yoga

American director, writer, producer and film genius. He is the creator of the epic "Star Wars" first released in 1977, and its two sequels, "The Empire Strikes Back" in 1980 and "The Return of the Jedi" in 1983. The space fantasy had brewed in his mind ever since he first became interested in film and finally reached the screen as a movie phenomenon of unprecedented magnitude. Shot in Tunisia and Death Valley and on 11 sound stages in England, it had a relatively modest budget but some of the most imaginative and complex special effects the screen had ever seen. The response was incredible, to the tune of some $200 million in sales. The first film alone copped 11 Academy Award nominations and seven Oscars in 1977 Lucas has been one of the most fantastic writers, producers and directors especially as a story teller in the last century which captured the hearts of all genres of audiences worldwide. He has Mars in 4th pada of Punarvasu & Mars is PK (writer/Filmmaker karaka) along with Rahu (movies) and Jupiter (expansive like

Rahu and also 9L of Fate) with AL (Cosmic Asc is correct modern term for Arudha Lagna if critics allow one to say so). Now Ravana says that this Mars in 4th pada can also give accidents. Lucas was a racing-car enthusiast as a kid until, he was involved in a car accident that resulted in broken bones and crushed lungs. The accident happened on 12th June 1962. His Mars our planet of discussion is in the 4H of vehicles and with Rahu & Jup. It was during Rahu/Saturn/Rahu he got the accident in Cn AD of Kalachakra dasa & in Moola Dasa it was Rahu/Saturn/Jup. If you have read the BSP-15 rule of Venus, you can see that Venus is in the 1H of body with Mer (travelling/movement) and the damage can be seen or forecast. Other Examples of Accident & Writing Name: MARTIN, MARY, Date: 12/1/1913, Time: 12:00 CST (+6:00), Gender: F, Place: Weatherford, TX, Lat: 32 N 46, Lng: 97 W 48 Biography: American actress and singer who first sang "My Heart Belongs To Daddy" in the 1938 Broadway musical "Leave It To Me," followed by many musical hits. For five decades her impish energy hovered over Broadway, sprinkling stages with magic and transporting theatregoers to Never-Never-Land. She sparkled in "South Pacific," "Sound of Music" and "Peter Pan." In her autobiography she wrote, "I gave to my audiences what belonged to my children," and she felt blessed that she had a second chance in her older years to know them, and their children In 1982, Martin was in a serious car accident in San Francisco. The taxi in which she was riding was hit by a van: her manager was killed and her friend, actress Janet Gaynor, Paul Gardner and Martin were all badly hurt. Mary's pelvis was broken in three places and she had two broken ribs and a punctured lung. She survived as matter of "good genes, luck and God." When she finally left the hospital, doctors and nurses stood by and crowed loudly, just the way Peter Pan bade us to do when life gave us something worth cheering about. A year later she staged a benefit for the Crisis Center and - at age 70 - flew all the way to the third balcony, crowing her triumph.

avana further says that Mars in Punarvasu in 4th pada can give wealth via writing and also give blood disorders or sexual diseases. Let us see some examples.

Example 1: Shilts, Randy- American Writer & AIDS disease

American writer, a journalist and the author of a groundbreaking best-seller, "And The Band Played On," 1987, an expose and report on the situation of AIDS in the U.S. On the day that Shilts finished "Band," he had a doctor appointment, at which he was told that he himself was HIV+. The gripping story was made into a TV special drama that played in September 1993. That year he published "Conduct Unbecoming: Gays and Lesbians in the U.S. Military." Shilts died of AIDS on 17 Feb 1994. In this case the sayings of Ravana fits in well, Mars is in Punarvasu in the 5th house of authorship and Mars the 8L of sexual chronic diseases in natural zodiac is with Sun the 6L of diseases in D1 (dispositing Venus) and 8L of chronic diseases of D6 again dispositing Venus. In D6 Venus is the 8H of sexual chronic diseases in the sign of Sun and it was in Moola Dasa of Ven/Mo/Venus he died, which was the Venus AD of Vimshottari. Example 2: AIDS 1154 No Writer & AIDS disease

American homosexual male; recently diagnosed HIV+. Interior designer. His mom, a Theosophist, took him to alternate healing centre but he left abruptly. You can see that he has Mars in 4th pada in Punarvasu.

Mercury In Punarvasu
If Sun aspects Mercury, then, the native gains from the government. He attains high position and despite the same, remains truthful. If Moon aspects, then, the native is sweet spoken, brings unity to the family and maintains himself by serving the government. If Mars aspects, then, he dresses in attractive clothing and is an expert in many different art forms. If Jupiter or Venus aspects, then, he is a representative of high class people, is an effective and influential public relations officer. He is an expert in reaching agreements by solving conflicts and defeats his enemies. If Saturn aspects, then, he gains fame immediately in his field of activity, keeps everyone in control, is respectful towards all, and is medium wealthy.
SA Commentary: This is the 2nd time in a classic it has been mentioned of Sun aspecting Mercury or vice versa, one should make a note of this since as per current knowledge of ancient astrology this is not possible. If Mercury is in Punarvasu aspected by Venus or Jupiter then he becomes an expert in reaching agreements, this combination one would find a lot in Politicians and Diplomats.

Mercury in 1st Pada 20 deg Gemini to 23.20 deg Gemini Navamsa of Aries If Mercury is in first part, then, the native earns by being a government servant. In the beginning he has a lower designation, but gains a higher designation later. Slowly he gains wealth and fame. He is knower of many arts and science subjects; respects others, hopes to live life in a peaceful manner and is a husband to two wives.
SA Commentary: Out of 238 charts of Mer in 1st pada of Punarvasu, only 30 were found to be government employees. Some examples below Example 1: Cisneros, Henry G. - The Mayor of San Antonio Texas

Latino-American politician, the Mayor of San Antonio Texas, once considered as a potential Democratic Vice-Presidential candidate. He was the first Hispanic to ever serve as chief executive of a major US city. In June 1989 he left public office to begin work in a pension fund management firm. He returned to government work after being appointed Director of the Federal Reserve Bank in January 1991. In August 1992, he resigned from this position to become Senior Campaign advisor to Bill Clinton. Clinton selected Cisneros as Secretary of HUD (Housing and Urban Development) in December 1992. As one can see he has Mer in the 1st pada of Punarvasu qualifying all conditions laid down by Ravana and since Mer is in the 2nd house of administration he had a career in it as a govt employee. Example 2: Shapp, Milton - Governor of Pennsylvania American industrialist and politician, the governor of Pennsylvania from 1971-1979. He died on November 24, 1994. You can see that he has Mercury in 1st pada of Punarvasu; it is also with Sun the govt and administrative planet which made him the Governor

Mercury in 2nd Pada 23.20 deg Gemini to 26.40 deg Gemini Navamsa of Taurus (Pushkara Navamsa) If Mercury is in the second part, then, the native has wisdom of control over ones speech, gains wealth through different types of work and becomes an astrologer. He is much appreciated from the elderly and the prominent.

 He takes to any task without any differentiation. He remains in high position. People listen and agree to him.
SA Commentary: Let us see some examples of only point mentioned above which is native can become an astrologer, out of our database matching Mer 2nd pada Punarvasu around 13 charts were found. Example 1: From Ashutosh Kumars databank

He has interest in Astrology. He is very nice person by heart. You can notice that Mercury is in 2nd pada of Punarvasu exactly matching Ravanas text and is in the 8H of occult with 5L of intuition Jup looking at the 2nd house of speech. Example 2: Zadkiel I British Famous Astrologer

British astrologer known as Zadkiel I, a pro from 1830 and the founder of an astrological almanac. You can see that Mer is in the 2nd pada of Punarvasu in the 11H of Jyotish and is the 11L himself. Mer is known for astrological calculations too. Example 3: Costa, Zeferino P. Old Brazilian Astrologer Brazilian astrologer, one of the pioneers in Brazilian astrology. A pro in private practice, he also teaches return and prediction techniques. He is rumored to be one of the astrologers to counsel President Color.

From the bio above you can notice that the astrologer must be gifted. He has Mer in 2nd pada of Punarvasu and as per Ravana this can make one an astrologer. Mercury is with Rahu the planet of research in astrology and the King Of Stunning Predictions.

avana also says that if Mercury is in the second part, then, the native has wisdom of control over ones speech, gains wealth through different types of work. Let us look at some charts where voice modulation is necessary like in singing, TV host, MC fields.

Example 1: Mesquita, Otvio TV Host & MC

Brazilian TV host and MC of variety programs, he has Mercury the karaka of speech in the 2nd pada of Punarvasu and that too in the 3H of communications and talking with 5L of fame and showman ship. All this Sun Mer is happening in the 3H of Television Industry. Example 2: Anspach, Frdric Jean Emile Belgium Opera Singer Belgian opera singer and teacher, has Mercury in the 2nd pada of Punarvasu aspecting the 2nd house of speech. For Opera Singing one needs a great amount of voice modulation and it matches Ravanas text. With Ketu in the 2H very few would have ventured to predict the chart owner would be an Opera Singer. One can note that Mer is her BK (3H of singing).

Example 3: Journet, Marcel French Opera Singer

French opera singer who made his debut at the Montpellier in 1893. Blessed with a bass voice of great beauty, good acting abilities and versatility, his operatic performances included Brussels in 1894, London in 1897, New York Met in 1900, Paris in 1908, Chicago in 1915 and Milan in 1917. Journet died 9/25/1933, Vittel. As you can see Mer is in the 2nd pada of Punarvasu & then 2nd lord of speech apart from being the AMK (career). Example 4: Santana, Carlos Band Santana Mexican-American musician, leader of the band "Santana." First formed in 1967 in San Francisco as the "Santana Blues Band," they played local gigs. Virtually unknown before appearing at the 1969 Woodstock Festival, this stunning lead guitarist along with the band captured national prominence for their performance in a segment in the film "Woodstock." On 1/04/2000, he received ten Grammy nominations for his blockbuster commercial album "Supernatural" followed by Best Album honors at the American Music Awards on 1/17/2000. Mercury is in the 2nd pada of Punarvasu with 2L Venus in the 3H of hands. He plays Guitar, clarinet, violin.

Mercury in 3rd Pada 26.40 deg Gemini to 30.00 deg Gemini Navamsa of Gemini (Vargottama Navamsa) If Mercury is in the third part, then, the native lives ordinarily, is interested in societal and religious works and is a scientist. Even if he invests extra wealth in trade, he only gains a little from it.
SA Commentary: Ravana says that if Mercury is in the 3rd quarter he can be a scientist. Example 1: Fischer, Hans German Scientist Nobel Prize

German organic chemist and lecturer who won the Nobel Prize for Chemistry in 1930. As a young man, he studied chemistry and medicine simultaneously. He was lecturing on internal medicine in 1912, physiology in 1913. A professor of medical chemistry from 1916, and from 1921 until his death, he held the Chair of Organic Chemistry in Munich. He died on March 31, 1945 in Munich, Germany. Matching the words of Ravana, Mercury is in the 3rd pada of Punarvasu and Hans Fischer is a scientist who won the Nobel Prize. Example 2: Alberty, Robert Arnold -Dean of Massachusetts Institute of Technology School of Science American chemistry professor and dean of Massachusetts Institute of Technology School of Science for several years beginning in 1967. He has Mercury in the 3rd pada of Punarvasu.

Mercury in 4th Pada 0 deg Cancer to 03.20 deg Cancer Navamsa of Cancer (Pushkara & Vargottama Navamsa) If Mercury is in the fourth part, then, the native gains wealth from ones expertise. He is a writer and a head of educational institute/organization and is close to the government. He remains famous and wealthy.
SA Commentary: Example from Ashutosh Kumars database on Mer in 4th quarter and native being in govt service as per the text. Chart not given so as to reduce size of article. DOB : 06 September 1978, TOB : 00:50 AM, POB : Samastipur (BIHAR) The native is an Audit Officer. He is in Govt. Service. He talks very sweet & sometimes he turns talkative.

Jupiter In Punarvasu
If Sun aspects Jupiter then the native has a finest wife, has children and is respected by family members. If Moon aspects then the native is the caretaker of many villages and cities, gains fame after a struggle and has sattwic (pure) values. If Mercury aspects then he is knower of Jyotish Shastra, has a fine family, and is soft spoken. If Venus aspects then, the native has less wealth, remains under stress on account of women, and never makes a commitment. If Saturn aspects, then, the native gains from the government, is wealthy, respects everyone, and remains in a high position in the government.
SA Commentary: Ravana says that if Mercury aspects Jupiter in Punarvasu nakshatra then one is knower of Jyotish Shastra. These kinds of combinations till date are not mentioned in any classic text and we must be thankful to those unknown preservers of astrology by which this has finally reached this digital medium. Example: Nostradamus, Michel de Worlds No 1 Astrologer The construction of this chart gave us a lot of pain consuming huge amounts of time as the correct birth chart was not being constructed as Julian Calendar was not accounted for. A slight miss from our end and confusion reigned in for 3 days. Hence French astrologers Francois Carriere and the senior astrologer Marie Christine Sclifet must be thanked who finally guided us. For those who do not know about

Julian/Gregorian Calendars are requested to read http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Julian_calender and http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gregorian_calendar.

Inspite of being aware of this while constructing the chart we forgot the exact year when Gregorian Calendar was introduced hence the confusion. Still if any mistake its ours but the fact that Jupiter will still remain in Punarvasu and will still be aspected by Mercury. Nostradamus needs no introduction and everyone knows him as the finest No.1 astrologer ever in the last 600 years. Ravana says that if Jupiter is in Punarvasu and also aspected by Mer then he is a knower of Jyotish Shastra, it matches exactly in this chart of Nostradamus. Jupiter is in the 4H of Vidya (Knowledge) & is the Amk (career) and is aspected by Mercury from 10H of profession apart from being BK (writer). His writing work has survived. If one believes this time of birth to be very correct then one can see that Planet of Jyotishas Ultimate Predictions that is Rahu, the King maker for Astrologer1 is right on the lagna degree. Rahu/Ketu axis near the Lagna degree not more should be said. Before we depart his chart use BSP technique of Jupiter Saturn written by Andree Leclerc, with Jup-Sat conjunction Aries the 2H of family for him should be destroyed. Nostradamus lost his wife, Henriette dEncausse, and their two sons to the plague in 15332. He remarried circa 1534 to a young girl of high estate, very beautiful and admirable, but her name is lost to history. They had six children. In November 1555, he married a third time, to Anne Ponsart Gemelle, a rich widow.

Jupiter in 1st Pada 20 deg Gemini to 23.20 deg Gemini Navamsa of Aries If Jupiter is in the first part, then the native gains all kinds of worldly pleasures and leads a respectable life. Till middle life, his family life is unhappy. Differences with wife remain on account of ones profession. One has to move to a different city for ones work.

SA: Rahu is often ignored by scholars and most take Jup or some Mer for Jyotishis, but as previously mentioned by us, Rahu is the Predictor of Predictors. B V Raman had Rahu in the 2nd house of speech and earnings, his predictions were well known. KP the most phenomenal predictor ever who gave Traditional astrologers a run for their money had a double whammy Rahu and Jupiter both aspecting his 2H. K.N.Rao one of the last predictors of previous century also has Rahu and Jupiter aspecting his 2H. Cheiros 2L was Jupiter aspected by Rahu. SA: Wikipedia gives the year of death of his wife and children as 1534 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nostradamus#Marriage_and_healing_work whereas ADB gives as 1533

Jupiter in 2nd Pada 23.20 deg Gemini to 26.40 deg Gemini Navamsa of Taurus (Pushkara Navamsa) If Jupiter is in the second part, then the native is helpful to others, is a pundit or a pujari. The native is wealthy but unhappy on account of family members. The wife is narrow-minded. The children are well educated and have good values. Because of the children, ones fortune rises in the middle age.

Jupiter in 3rd Pada 26.40 deg Gemini to 30.00 deg Gemini Navamsa of Gemini (Vargottama Navamsa) If Jupiter is in the third part, then, the native is a teacher or a minister. He gains from the ministers. Even when young, the native is wealthy and well respected.
SA Commentary: avana says that when Jupiter is in the 3rd quarter of Punarvasu, the native is a teacher or minister, let us look more for teachers.

Example 1: Shermer, Michael Educator & Teacher

Jupiter is in 3rd pada of Punarvasu as per Ravana text and the native is a teacher. American writer and educator, a prolific author and head of the Skeptic Society (www.skeptic.com). He lectures internationally when not at his university teaching post, Assistant Professor of History of Science at the Institute for Human Progress. He taught psychology and the history of science for 11 years at Glendale College, and occasionally teaches the history of science and culture at Occidental College. Example 2: Roscoe, Will Educator & Teacher Jupiter is in the 3rd pada of Punarvasu and the native is a teacher professor. American writer, educator and gay activist. Born in Seattle to a chemistry professor father and pharmacist mother. Roscoe holds a 1991 Ph.D. in History of Consciousness from the University of California, Santa Cruz, and has taught Anthropology, Native American Studies, and American Studies at UC/Santa Cruz, San Francisco State University, UC/Berkeley, the California Institute of Integral Studies, and Dominican College. From 19911995 he was an affiliated scholar with the Institute for Research on Women and Gender at Stanford University, and he is now adjunct faculty for the Institute for Transpersonal Psychology.

Example 3: Ashutosh Kumars Example Sr in Jharkhand Govt

Jupiter is in 3rd pada of Punarvasu, he is wealthy and famous person. He is one of the senior most persons in Jharkhand Govt. He has done graduation in Political Science. Other Examples Of Teachers: 1) Name: LEVIN, ANNA MARIA, Date: 11/24/1918, Time: 08:00 EST (+5:00), Gender: F Place: New York, NY, Lat: 40 N 42, Lng: 74 W 00 Biography: American art teacher, an underground painter and writer: married. Anna states that she is psychic with people and also able to "read" machines. 2) Name: GARRIOTT, OWEN K., Date: 11/22/1930, Time: 10:00 CST (+6:00), Gender: M Place: Enid, OK, Lat: 36 N 23, Lng: 97 W 52 Biography: American scientist, selected by NASA for astronaut training on 6/28/1965. He served as science-pilot for Skylab-3, the second manned Skylab mission that took place from 7/28 9/25/1973, as well as mission specialist on STS-9, which launched on 11/28/1983. In 1961, he became an Associate Professor in the Department of Electrical Engineering at Stanford where he stayed until his selection by NASA.

Jupiter in 4th Pada 0 deg Cancer to 03.20 deg Cancer Navamsa of Cancer (Pushkara & Vargottama Navamsa)

If Jupiter is in the fourth part, the native gains a lot of fame in ones life. The native feels a shortage of wealth and happiness. He feels unhappy on account of ones family and friends, but, others respect him. If Mercury aspects then the native lives like a king. He has wealth, many followers and houses/buildings. If women have this yoga in their chart, then their husband gains a lot of wealth.

SA Commentary: avana says if Jupiter is in the 4th quarter of Punarvasu the native gains a lot of fame in ones life. Obviously we must reiterate that nakshatra predictions are Indicators Towards A Prediction and one must use the basic tenets of astrology to further confirm if such and such combination exists on account of supporting yogas etc. This point will not be repeated often but most critics forget this when they criticise others articles but point it out when their articles are criticised a Vipareet Raja Yoga phenomenon.

Example 1: Jimi Hendrix Immortal Fame

American musician, singer and guitarist who became a rock superstar. His first major popularity came to him in England before his fame swept America, particularly in the hippie rock culture. Exalted Jupiter is in the 4th pada of Punarvasu which is ruled by Jupiter in the amsa of Amrita (Nectar) in the sign of Moon along with a Panchami (5H) Moon in the 8H of immortality after death. Example 2: Crichton, Michael Jurassic Park Writer & also Movie Director

American writer, the author of best-selling sci-fi thrillers, many of which were made into movies. He wrote and directed the movie "Westworld." Other major works include "The Great Train Robbery" (he also directed the film) "Travels," "Congo," "Sphere," "Jurassic Park" and "Rising Sun." The 9L Jup is exalted in Asc in Punarvasu 4th pada in sign of Cancer with Moon in quadrant to it, Jupiter is the PK (5H of author) supported by exalted Mer in Virgo in 3H of writing.

Venus In Punarvasu
If Sun aspects Venus, then, the native works in the armed forces. If Moon aspects then the native loves fine food and beautiful clothes. One is fair and has long hair. If Mars aspects then the native is fortunate and trades in land. If Mercury aspects, then, he is decorated with many titles, and has a happy family life. If Jupiter aspects then the native is an expert in writing. If Saturn aspects then the native remains knowledgeable and wealthy. The native is deceived many a times. Due to less intelligence, one is made fun of and has to tolerate unhappiness 3 many a times.
SA Commentary: avana says if Venus is in Punarvasu and Mars aspects it then native is fortunate and trades in land. We got only 4 charts in Astro Data Bank with Venus in Punarvasu and dealing or trading in land /real estate and out of it only one had Mars aspect on Venus.

Example 1: Hemingway, Carol Real Estate Sales

As per the text it matches in above chart Venus (luxurious things) is in Punarvasu and Mars (land karaka) gives its 4th aspect on this Venus. American astrologer based in Key West, FL who has worked professionally since 1976. Married to a builder for 15 years and involved in the construction business for a decade, in the late '90s she went back into real estate sales to supplement her income from astrological clients. Example 2: Realtor 9687 Venus in Punarvasu but Mars indirect Association

SA: See the beauty of the statement in one breath Ravana says the person will be knowledgeable and at the same time will be deceived due to less intelligence, this kind of charts we often find in real life but never get any verse that shows it.

American clerical worker who began buying and selling property for herself in 2/1976 and became a realtor in 1979. Married and divorced three times. She had a nervous breakdown in 1973-1974 and rebuilt herself. As you can see Venus is in Punarvasu with the 4L of property Saturn but no direct aspect of Mars, instead the dispositor of Mars is conjunct Venus within 3 degrees. Unfortunately this particular Sun Saturn conjunction with Venus the 7L can give her 2 or 3 marriages.

avana further says that if Venus is in Punarvasu and aspected by Jupiter then the native is an expert in writing. With the criteria that Venus be in Punarvasu and the charts be of writers, one approximately gets 160 plus charts of writers. With additional criteria of Jupiters aspect to be on this Venus one gets few charts only of writers. Presented are 2-3 charts below of some famous names recognisable by Indians and Westerners both. Example 1: Omarr, Sydney Astrologer Writer

American writer and journalist, a nationally syndicated astrologer and newspaper columnist. Omarr is the author of "My World of Astrology," 1965, and 12 annual sun-sign paperback books with indications for the year. In 1996, with more than 40 million copies of his books in print and a column in 300 daily newspapers, Omarr published his memoirs, "Answer in the Sky - Almost."

Matching Ravana Samhita, he has Venus in Punarvasu aspected by Jupiter thereby making him an expert writer as per the text. Example 2: Krishna, Pandit Ji Gopi East Indian Kundalini Writer Roddens gives a C rating for his time of birth. East Indian Kundalini researcher and author. In 1937 he experienced a spontaneous awakening of Kundalini energy. He was first published in 1949. Married; three kids. Died of a severe lung infection 7/31/1984.

Even if the time of birth is not correct, one can notice that Venus who is in Punarvasu will always be aspected by the 5th aspect of Jupiter at any time in the day. Assuming for a second that the time of birth is correct then we can see that Venus is in the 5H of authorship with Neptune (awakening) with dispositor of Ketu (spirituality) being Jupiter in the Asc and Mars the 3L of lungs with Rahu in the 8H of chronic diseases, he died of severe lung infection. Another snap shot method of seeing his cause of death is if you read the BSP-15 series on Graha, Venus is in the sign of Gemini which is lungs and he died of lungs infection being with 6L of disease Moon. Example 3: Emerson, Charles Father of NCGR and writer

American professional astrologer for 25 years and a founding father of NCGR. As an astrologer, he was the author of many articles that reflected his special interest in medical and Uranian astrology and also lectured on Mundane. He was the Editor of "Astrological Review" and assistant Editor of "In Search." Emerson died 9/19/1992, 9:05 PM EDT, New York, NY. As you can notice Venus is Punarvasu in the 11H of astrologer aspected by Jupiter from the 3H of writing.

Venus in 1st Pada 20 deg Gemini to 23.20 deg Gemini Navamsa of Aries

 If Venus is in the first part then the native has much jewellery and clothes, Is a trader of fruits and flowers, Remains a leader of society and is loved by the people.
SA Commentary: Out of a search for Venus in 1st pada of Punarvasu around 230 prominent people were found but no trader of fruits or flowers due to probably lack of database. Among leader of society we found many one of them is presented below Example : Nicholas II, Czar of Russia Nicknamed Bloody Czar Ravana says that if Venus is in the 1st pada of Punarvasu then native Remains a Leader of Society and Loved by the People here one finds contradictory. Russian Czar Nicholas II was the last of the Romanov dynasty that had ruled Russia for more than 300 years. Not ready to take on the mantle of royalty, on his coronation date of 10/20/1894 Nicholas had over 50 titles and ruled one sixth of the world. On 1/22/1905, Bloody Sunday, 120,000 workers marched peacefully to the Czar's palace to protest living and working conditions. Nicholas was spirited off by guards and the soldiers opened fire on the populace, killing men, women and children. This was in part a reason for his nickname, "the Bloody Czar," Several military disasters and the collapse of the domestic economy led to the Russian Revolution and Nicholas abdicated 3/15/1917. The family was kept in isolation until 7/17/1918 in Ekaterinburg, Siberia when at 2:30 AM they were taken to a basement with some servants and shot by the Bolsheviks on the orders of Lenin. Now see Venus in 1st pada of Punarvasu is in the 7H of public life, giving him the position. Note it is 6L of servants too and he was deceived by them. But this Venus receives no known aspect except from Ketu from 3H. Ketu means Change & also Break and that is what happened he got broken away from his rulership. Now as mentioned above he abdicated himself on 15th March 1917 letting go of his throne and public platform, so his 7H can be activated at that time where Venus is placed and as per Ravana Samhita the giver of Leader of Society, well during 15th March 1917 Venus AD was running.

Venus in 2nd Pada 23.20 deg Gemini to 26.40 deg Gemini Navamsa of Taurus (Pushkara Navamsa) If Venus is in the second part, then, the native is procrastinator, Does not take part in any work and yet remains curious about it, And has to struggle against his unaccepting mind.

Venus in 3rd Pada 26.40 deg Gemini to 30.00 deg Gemini Navamsa of Gemini (Vargottama Navamsa) If Venus is in the third part, then, the native is wealthy and knowledgeable. He changes his profession quite often, and is appointed at a special position in the government. He remains a top notch government officer, administrator and educator. His wife is in a similar trade, has fine qualities and entertains good values. Venus in 4th Pada 0 deg Cancer to 03.20 deg Cancer Navamsa of Cancer (Pushkara & Vargottama Navamsa) If Venus is in the fourth part, the native leads life happily. He is especially happy in his married life. His wife and children are obedient and talented. In lifes last part, the native gains respect and becomes wealthy. If Saturn aspects then he is interested in other peoples work. He gains less happiness from ones own family.

Saturn In Punarvasu
If Sun aspects Saturn then the native finds no happiness. He remains with the lower class of people. If Moon aspects, then the native has an attractive personality, powers and a respectable position and gains from the government. If Mars aspects then the native has knowledge of the ancient wisdom and customs and science. If Mercury aspects then the native is good in trading, has patience to overcome obstacles, is wealthy, and has common sense. If Jupiter aspects, then the native has good qualities, is wealthy, and remains in service to the government or a highly reputed person. If Venus aspects, then the native is a trader of gold and bronze, gains from ladies, but remains sorrowful on account of wife.
SA Commentary: avana says that if Saturn is in Punarvasu and aspected by Mars the native can have knowledge of ancient wisdoms, customs and science. Let us try to fit in some logic and it will be only our logic and not the logic of the King Ravana, without which our logic will only be presumptions. Saturn is known for all ancient things, old manuscripts and old mystic knowledge since Saturn is a Yogi and in Kalapurusha (Natural Zodiac), the 8th (occult) from the 4H of knowledge and the Pot Bearer of Knowledge. At the same time Mars is the 8L of the natural zodiac and the occult lord, oft ignored point. Both of this combining together or aspecting or associating in some form can give some form of knowledge of the occult/jyotisha. Diverting for few minutes from Ravana Samhita one of our studies of Bhrighu Astrology shows that Mars Saturn association is an important combination in charts of astrologers and would produce a paper on it in the future issues. Right now let us take into ancient customs and take into account the most ancient customs known in the west which is of Shaminism and Wicca and look at an unknown method of divisional charts which should not be too blindly used.

Example1: Wiccan Mars and Saturn both are in Punarvasu and fitting the text the native has knowledge of ancient customs of Wiccan. Astro data bank says American witch, a member of a Wiccan group.

Example 2: Luciferia, Diane -French Wiccan high priestess

French Wiccan high priestess who descended into black masses and orgies until she herself became a homicide victim. Saturn is in Punarvasu and not aspected by Mars which as per Ravanas rule should be aspecting, but Saturns dispositor Moon is very closely conjunct Mars thereby forming relation. In a particular divisional chart of highest significance this Mars Saturn is in the 5H of mantra-tantra carrying the energy back into the natal chart. Example 3: Adler, Margot Leader of Goddess and Pagan Spirituality Movement. American leader in the Goddess and Pagan Spirituality Movement. A Wicca priestess for 18 years, she was an Elder in the Covenant of the Goddess, a Board Members of "Cuups" and author of "Drawing Down the Moon," a classic study of contemporary Paganism. In her mundane life, Adler is a correspondent for National Public Radio. She had a child in January 1991. Saturn is in Punarvasu with Rahu and Rahus nakshatra lord is Mars, thereby creating an association with Mars. Again like previous chart one finds it that particular divisional chart Saturn and Mars are aspecting each other and Mars is with Moon, if you read the above bio on her, it says that she is author of Drawing Down the Moon.

Saturn in 1st Pada 20 deg Gemini to 23.20 deg Gemini Navamsa of Aries If Saturn is in the first part, then the native gains through gambling. Through technical work, he leads his life. Because of illegal activities he takes on debt, and causes a sympathetic situation to arise.
SA Commentary: Ravana says that Saturn in the 1st pada of Punarvasu indicates the native gains through gambling. Example 1: Late C S Patel - Astrologer Saturn is in the 1st pada of Punarvasu nakshatra but in the 12 H of losses. Late astrologer C S Patel was known as the 1st astrologer who did stock market and commodities astrology research, he developed new principles through his observation skills and even dabbled in commodities market making huge profits as promised in the Ravana Samhita but as Saturn is Vakri (retrograde) and in the 12H and is the 7L in 12H, he later lost money inspite of knowing finer astrology principles of commodities astrology. He later taught these principles to his famed student now 75 year old R G Krishnan who is based in US and has taught several courses in stock market astrology to the west, contributing his own researches in stock market astrology.

Example 2: Ashutosh Kumars Database Astrologer

The native has Saturn in the 1st pada of Punarvasu and as per the Ravana Samhita the native can gain through gambling. He was a rich person, but he lost a great of his wealth in shares & Stock Market. You can see the natives Saturn is with Venus who is the 6L of losses and also is the GK (signifying losses).

Saturn in 2nd Pada 23.20 deg Gemini to 26.40 deg Gemini Navamsa of Taurus (Pushkara Navamsa) If Saturn is in the second part, then the native earns through interest. He engages in small-big trade and leads his life. He can remain engaged in building houses.
SA Commentary: Ravana says that Saturn in the 2nd pada of Punarvasu indicates the native remains engaged in building houses. We have actually not gotten a single chart and but with Saturn in other padas of Punarvasu got few people who are engaged in building houses. Only one of them is being reproduced below Example: Hirsch, Laurence E.

American executive and CEO of Centex Homes, Inc., the largest builder of single-family homes, also industrial contracting and selling of construction products. Hirsch has a BS in Economics, a JD degree and also is head of a profitable Texas S&L. One can see that Saturn is in the 4th pada of Punarvasu and not in the 2nd pada (quarter) which is the requirement of our text but still it has given the result of being engaged in business of building houses. The time of birth is suspect completely as per records and if we look at just the rashi it is in, it is in the 4th

sign which is the natural house of Houses the native is no doubt engaged in building houses and Saturns hard work has made him the largest builder.

Saturn in 3rd Pada 26.40 deg Gemini to 30.00 deg Gemini Navamsa of Gemini (Vargottama Navamsa) If Saturn is in the third part, the native remains satisfied in his trade. He is excited and hardworking in chemical trade and alchemy. People in high position work under him. Saturn in 4th Pada 0 deg Cancer to 03.20 deg Cancer Navamsa of Cancer (Pushkara & Vargottama Navamsa) If Saturn is in the fourth part, the native remains short or medium statured, but, yet is attractive. His health suffers in childhood. He does not receive parental love. He helps others, but, remains tense and stressed.

Rahu In Punarvasu
Rahu in 1st Pada 20 deg Gemini to 23.20 deg Gemini Navamsa of Aries If Rahu is in the first part, the native is clever in his estimations, expert in his work and remains attached with writing, education and trade. He has swelling on his hands, feet and ears. Some natives are afflicted by Vata (wind) caused problems.
SA Commentary: Ravana says Rahu in the 1st pada native will have swelling of hands feet and ears. Example: Lurie, Alison Ears Problems

American writer. Professor of English at Cornell University since 1976. Her first novel, "Love and Friendship," was published in 1976. Lurie is the author of ten novels, including "Foreign Affairs," which won the Pulitzer Prize for Fiction in 1985. Alison was skinny, plain, odd-looking, and deaf in one ear from a birth injury with resulting atrophy of the facial muscles that by her own account, "pulled my mouth sideways whenever I opened it to speak and turned my smile into a sort of sneer." As you can see Rahu is in the 1st pada of Punarvasu in the 12H of Diseases from Previous Life and with A8 (Chronic and Karmic in Nature). As you can read above in her bio that she was deaf from a birth injury. Rahu is in the 3rd sign of Gemini which signifies ears also and probably thats the Ravana has indicated ears and arms but why feet will be explained in a future BSP methodology but this verse of Ravana cannot be forgotten. Other Examples of Rahu in 3rd pada (not 1st pada which our text says) of Punarvasu but still ear & leg problems 1) Name: MEDICAL: MENINGITIS 13873, Date: 6/4/1963, Time: 18:57 EDT (+5:00), Gender: M, Place: Chester, PA, Lat: 39 N 50, Lng: 75 W 21 Biography: American case of spinal meningitis at age 16 months that left him with severe deafness. A brother, born 11/20/1965, is also deaf from illness at the age of one. The boys both had six operations each to remove fluid from the ears. They both play on handicapped football and wrestling teams. 2) Name: MEDICAL: AMPUTEE 6095, Date: 3/19/1926, Time: 20:00 EST (+5:00), Gender: F, Place: New Brighton, PA, Lat: 40 N 44, Lng: 80 W 19 Biography: American amputee; due to lupus, she had her leg surgically removed February 1975 in San Antonio, and died 12/17/1975, 3:15 PM.

Rahu in 2nd Pada 23.20 deg Gemini to 26.40 deg Gemini Navamsa of Taurus (Pushkara Navamsa) If Rahu is in the second part, the native is kind hearted and wears high quality and expensive clothes, is successful in science and research work and gains fame in it. He remains involved in trade of clothes, gold or bronze and earns through interest too. Rahu in 3rd Pada 26.40 deg Gemini to 30.00 deg Gemini Navamsa of Gemini (Vargottama Navamsa) If Rahu is in the third part, the natives memory is very sharp. He remains satisfied. He has differences in opinion and ideologies from his family members. He remains involved in work in finance, planning commission, or registrars office in the government.

Rahu in 4th Pada 0 deg Cancer to 03.20 deg Cancer Navamsa of Cancer (Pushkara & Vargottama Navamsa) If Rahu is in the fourth part, the native has expertise (siddhi) in writing stories. If Mercury is with Rahu, then the native is an extraordinary astrologer. He is a distinguished mathematician and remains in touch with suspicious characters.
SA Commentary: avana says Rahu in the 4th pada native has expertise in writing stories. Let us take varied charts quickly though 12 charts were found. Example 1: Narayananda, Swami Indian Guru Indian guru, author of "The Primal Power in Man: The Kundalini Shakti," 1950. He has Rahu in 4th pada of Punarvasu and is the Amk (Karma) in the 8H of Kundalini (presuming that the birth time is correct but there is no noteworthy source on his time of birth), he wrote book on Kundalini and Rahu also signifies Kundalini Shakti, as it is the serpent.

Example 2: Bosco, Henri French Writer of 30 books

Rahu is in the 4th pada of Punarvasu. French writer, a novelist and poet who wrote over 30 books. As an educator, he was Professor of Comparative Literature at the French Institute in Naples 1920-'30. Died 5/04/1976, Nice, France.

Example 1: Marino, Yara A.- Developed her own numerology

avana further says that if Rahu is in Punarvasu 4th pada and aspected by Mercury then the native is an extraordinary astrologer and/or a mathematician.

Brazilian professional numerologist who developed her own numeric system and, as of 1990, was writing a book. She became interested in the occult when she was in her twenties and specializes not only in numerology but astrology as well. She received a B.S. in Law and has studied psychology, but retired. You can see that the natives Rahu is in the 4th pada of Punarvasu and is aspected by Mercury, for a numerologist one needs to be a mathematician and one can loosely translate that extraordinary astrologer would mean here a predictor like a numerologist.

Ketu In Punarvasu
Ketu in 1st Pada 20 deg Gemini to 23.20 deg Gemini Navamsa of Aries If Ketu is in the first part, the native is wealthy, has children and is long lived. He is inimical to his siblings, but, maintains good behaviour. Ketu in 2nd Pada 23.20 deg Gemini to 26.40 deg Gemini Navamsa of Taurus (Pushkara Navamsa) If Ketu is in the second part, the native is diseased, physically challenged or has a weak heart. Born into a wealthy family, but, he lives like a pauper. If Ketu is with malefics, the native is an orphan or is sent to an orphanage by his own father.
SA Commentary: avana says Ketu in the 2nd pada native is an orphan if Ketu is with malefics. As to why Ravana gave Ketu in Gemini in 2nd pada a result of adoption is not clear. One make a broad attempt to justify it by saying that Ketu means new beginning, also Ketu in 2nd pada would be Gemini the sign of siblings and owned by Mercury (neutral) so step brothers sisters and at the same time being in 2nd pada would mean Taurus Navamsa which is the 2nd house of family hence different family combining the nature of Ketu and Mercury by saying that new beginning in a new family and also Mercury was not owned by his parents initially. Let us broadly look at Ketu in Punarvasu in other padas and aspected by malefics, since from our existing database one was not able to find out Ketu in 2nd pada and cases of adoption.

Example 1: Guttuso, Fabio Carapezza Adoption- Ketu in 4th pada of Punarvasu

Italian heir with the death of the painter Renato Guttoso in 10/1986, as Guttoso had adopted him three months before his death. The final papers had been signed four days before the painter died. His inheritance of the estate was contested by Guttuso's natural son; Antonello Cuzzaniti.

Ketu is in the 4th pada of Punarvasu (not in 2nd as per text requirements) and is aspected by Saturn who is with Mars in the 3H of brother. Saturn always brings in the element of Step, that is step brother, step father or step mother and so on. Its aspect on this Ketu brought in the contest of inheritance by his step brother. Example 2: Adopted 12551 Ketu in 4th pada of Punarvasu

Ketu is in 4th pada of Punarvasu (not in 2nd pada) and is aspected by Mars Saturn by Saturns 10th aspect. Ketu sits in 2nd house of family. Example 3: Adopted 14559- Ketu in 4th pada of Punarvasu

Ketu is in the 4th pada of Punarvasu (not in 2nd) and is associated with malefic Mars who is 6th lord of separation (separation from parents-9H it is sitting) and aspected by Saturn There are few more charts where Ketu is in 1st pada but not being presented here in order to keep things brief. But the most striking thing that you can observe is instead of the drama happening in the 2nd pada the adoption cases in all the above 3 charts are happening with Ketu in 4th pada and in all the cases Saturn is aspecting this Ketu. This does not create a dictum but atleast helps us all in seeing this trend more in other charts.

Ketu in 3rd Pada 26.40 deg Gemini to 30.00 deg Gemini Navamsa of Gemini (Vargottama Navamsa) If Ketu is in the third part, the native marries twice. He remains in monetary trouble. Both wives seem like enemies to him. He has many children. He dies either by heart trouble or commits suicide.

SA Commentary: avana says Ketu in the 3rd pada native dies either due to heart trouble or commits suicide. Regarding suicide with Ketu in 3rd pada what is the logic is difficult to determine as Ravana like most sages has not given any logic anywhere. One can procrastinate it like this, Ketu shows new beginning as per Satya Jatakam one of the finest classics predating Varahamihira and Ketu in 3rd pada means Gemini, which is the 3H in natural zodiac and it is the house of free will, ketu in 3rd pada would mean Gemini Navamsa which again shows free will by hands and so on. Ketu being in 3rd pada in Vargotamsa makes it double strong and being in a Mercurys Rasi and Navamsa makes it more mind oriented or mercurial. People who commit suicide can do it with their free will (3H) or due to mind being afflicted during that period, probably for this reason Ravana could have prescribed suicide for Ketu in 3rd pada.

Example 1: Henlein, Konrad - German politician

German politician, a governor during the Third Reich and Nazi gauleiter of occupied Sudetenland during WW II. Upon the close of the war, he was taken into custody as a war criminal in Pilson prison, where he committed suicide before he could go to trial, 5/10/1945. Now see this chart Ketu is in the 3rd pada of Punarvasu matching Ravana Samhitas description, this Ketu is in the 12H of exit and 12H also shows bandhana (captivity). You can see that he was taken into custody (bandhana) and on 10th May 1945 he committed suicide in the Vim dasa of Ketu/Moon Moon is LL with A8 (death) whom Ketu aspects with 5th aspect and in Moola Dasa of Mars/Mars Mars aspects Ketu with 4th aspect and in Kalachakra dasa of Cancer/Cancer Ketu from 12L of exit aspects Cancer with its 5th aspect where the Lagna Lord (body) is sitting with A8. Now use Bhrighu Chakra Paddathi combined with this verse of Ravana Samhita, he died on 10th May 1945, 4 days after his 47th birthday which means 48th year and that is the 12H of Focus as per Bhrighu Chakra Paddathi where Ketu the planet of suicide if in 3rd pada Punarvasu as per Ravana Samhita is sitting. Ketu is at degree 28.44 and ketu is retrograde so minus it with 30 as taught in earlier articles and you get around 1 degree 16 minutes, which roughly comes 16 days approx and he died within 4 days of 48th year setting in, how synchronistic that all techniques match in this chart.

Example 3: Nimeno II

German bullfighter who performed under the name Nimeno II. He was severely wounded on September 23, 1978 in Logrono, and again gored in a bullfight in Arles, France on September 10, 1989. The great toreador committed suicide by hanging himself on November 25, 1991, Caveirac, France. Ketu is in the 3rd pada of Punarvasu satisfying Ravanas shloka, the German native committed suicide in the dasa of Jupiter Ketu in Vimshottari where Jupiter is in the 8H of death being the 6L of mishaps and in Moola Dasa as soon as his Ketu AD ended in 45 days he was gone in the AD of Moon who is in the 8H and MD of Saturn who is in the Lagna (body). Example 3: Suicide: Hanged 7622

American suicide case by hanging who died 4/24/1969, 15:45 EDT, Manhattan, NY. Ketu is in the 3rd pada of Punarvasu with 3L of free will Sun & GK (mishaps) Mercury (free will), all this aspected by BK (3H) of actions and free will Jupiter, she died on Rahu (other half of Ketu) MD and Jupiter AD in Vimshottari and in Moola Dasa it was Rahu/Rahu/Jup. There were 4 more cases of Ketu in Punarvasu of suicide of Ketu in other padas but that has not been exhibited here.

Ketu in 4th Pada 0 deg Cancer to 03.20 deg Cancer Navamsa of Cancer (Pushkara & Vargottama Navamsa) If Ketu is in the fourth part, the native is hard working, but, his income is less. He leads his life with hard work. The native gains happiness through the efforts of wise children.

Thus ends the chapter on Punarvasu of Ravana Samhita and we hope this exhaustive piece fulfils all those loved ones who wrote to us in the month of May 09 on Ravana Samhita encouraging us by their heartfelt words that mean a lot to us.
