George W. Bush — Dwisaptati Sama Dasha & 2005 Tithi Pravesha Analysis
Dwisaptati Sama Dasha (72-year, 8 years per planet) triggered when 7L is in lagna or lagna lord in 7H. Bush: Jupiter Dasha April 2000–2009 — Raj Yoga in Rasi + Jaya Yoga in D10 = consistently fortunate career. 2005 TP (Scorpio lagna): Badhakesha = Moon (fixed lagna = 9L), Moon in 12H but parivartana with Venus undermines. A10 in 6H = career challenges; A8+Gulika in 10H = career domain contaminated; A6 in 4H = happiness destroyed by obstacles. Bhoga calculation: count MD→AD lord, same count from AD lord = house of experience. Material victory from more malefics in 6H from AL than in 6H from A6 = Bush wins over enemies. Antardasha breakdown: Jupiter-Sun gives 9H bhoga (fortune); Jupiter-Moon = Gajakesari kicks in + Mars retrograde period Dec 2005 transforms image to decisive/aggressive.
"George Bush is in a very lucky period in his career during Jupiter dasha. The Raj Yoga in Rasi and the Jaya Yoga in Dasamsa are both running together."
— P.V.R. Narasimha Rao
Example Chart
George W. Bush — Birth Data and Natal Overview
- Birth: July 6, 1946, 7:30 PM, New Haven, CT (PVNR's rectified time from official 7:26 AM)
- Lagna: Libra (Tula), ~17°
- Key natal placements:
- 7th lord Saturn in 1st house → triggers Dwisaptati Sama Dasha (72-year dasha system, equal 8-year portions for each planet)
- Jupiter (9L+12L) in 3rd house with Moon → Gajakesari Yoga (Jupiter + Moon in 1/4/7/10 from each other)
- Jaya Yoga in D10 (Dasamsa) — exalted 10L + debilitated 6L → victory over enemies in career
- A7 in 11H = supportive people in interactions; A11 in 7H = tangible gains with some effort
Dwisaptati Sama Dasha
- Triggered when 7L is in 1H or 1L is in 7H
- 72-year cycle with equal 8 years per planet
- Jupiter Dasha: April 2000 – April 2009
- Raj Yoga in Rasi + Jaya Yoga in D10 = consistently fortunate career period
- PVNR: "George Bush is in a very lucky period in his career during Jupiter dasha"
Bush 2005 Annual Chart (Tithi Pravesha)
- Chart date: July 14, 2005, 5:22:21 PM
- Hora Lord: Mercury
- Lagna: Scorpio (Vrishchika)
- Ruler of Year: Mercury (as hora lord)
Badhakesha — Moon in 12H
- Scorpio is a fixed sign → Badhakesha = 9th lord (Moon)
- Moon is in 12th house: normally good (12H from lagna with benefic = expenditure of worry), but…
- Venus-Moon parivartana between 7H and 12H: the benefit of Moon in 12H is negated; Venus (7L) goes to 12H and Moon (9L/Badhaka) comes to 7H effectively
- Result: Badhakesha still finds a way to create hidden obstacles despite appearing well-placed
Key Placements in 2005 TP (Scorpio Lagna)
| Planet/Point | House | Significance |
|---|---|---|
| Saturn (4L) + Venus (7L) | 9H | Kendra lords in trikona = efforts with moderate fruits; technically raja yoga but not powerful |
| Sun (10L) | 8H | 10L in 8H = Marana Karaka Sthana for Sun (MKS = 12H, but 8H also difficult for 10H matters) |
| A10 (Rajya Pada) | 6H | Tangible career manifestation = obstacles; A10 in dusthana = career faces challenges |
| A8 + Gulika + Mandi | 10H | Very destructive energy in the 10th; career domain contaminated |
| A6 (obstacles) | 4H | Happiness (4H) = destroyed by fights; sukha is stolen by obstacle energy |
| A7 (interactions) | 11H Virgo | Intelligent, spiritual friends (Jupiter+Ketu in 11H) help fulfill desires; courts favorable |
| A11 (tangible gains) | 7H Taurus | Gains with effort through partnerships |
| Moon (Badhaka) | 12H | Appears fine, but parivartana with Venus undermines |
Material Victory Analysis — AL vs A6
- Count malefics in 6H from AL vs. in 6H from A6 (treating A6 as lagna of enemies):
- 6H from AL has more malefics than 6H from A6 → material victory for Bush
- From A6 as lagna: Mars + Rahu in 2H (2H = face/speech of enemy) → enemies appear as aggressive fools; they make mistakes that help Bush
Image Analysis — 3H from AL
- Moon (benefic) in 3H from AL → image of "taking things easy"
- "People overall think he is lost. He doesn't have a clear focus." — PVNR on the Moon period image
- But this is temporary — changes with Mars retrograde
2005 TP Antardasha Breakdown (Jupiter Dasha)
Jupiter-Sun AD (Oct–Dec 2005)
- Sun = MKS (challenged position) → loss of authority/fuel
- Bhoga calculation: Count from Jupiter (MD lord) to Sun (AD lord) = count from lagna
- Same count from Sun = Bhoga house = Pisces/9H = fortune, dharma
- Result: Fortune is what Bush experiences during this period; despite Sun's weakness, 9H Bhoga gives fortune
- Teaching: Bhoga = the house at the same distance from AD lord as the distance from MD lord to AD lord
Jupiter-Moon AD (Dec 8, 2005 onward)
- Bhoga in 3H (Rasi) + 5H (D10) = Gajakesari kicks in
- Something memorable/significant happens; Bush enters "visionary peacemaker" phase
- Jupiter-Moon = wisdom + public emotion; some peace-oriented event for which he is remembered
- Moon (Badhaka) in 12H = still "taking things easy" image; appears adrift
- Mars retrograde comes Dec 8, 2005: For that 1 month, Bush's image transforms — appears very aggressive, bold, decisive; popularity may rise during Mars period
Jupiter-Mars AD (Jan 2007 – Mar 2008)
- Vipareeta Raja Yoga: Jupiter is 8L in 12H (dusthana lord in dusthana) = sudden reversal of fortune, unexpected victories
- Jaya Yoga in D10 confirmed: aggressive, successful career action
- Very likely war-related or highly aggressive initiative during 2007
Jupiter-Mercury AD (Jan–Feb 2006)
- Mercury = 7L + 10L (very significant) in 11H
- But Mercury is also Badhakesha (7L for Scorpio lagna = dual sign... wait: Scorpio is fixed, so 9L=Badhaka. Mercury is 12L from annual chart lagna)
- Mixed results: good career strength (7L+10L in 11H) but Badhakesha effect persists regardless
- Mercury creates press-related problems: "Press may write something about somebody in his administration"
- "Bhadakesha will give his effect whether he is with Moon or Jupiter or Venus. He remembers he has to give problems."
- From Arudha Lagna: Mercury (3L) in 1H = appears lost/unfocused to world
Jupiter-Rahu AD (later period)
- Rahu in 8H (Cancer) in the annual chart
- Rahu = 3L → semi-Vipareeta Raja Yoga (3L in 8H = 3, not 6/8/12L, so it's semi-VRY)
- From AL: Rahu is in 12H = Parashara says malefics in 12H from AL give Raj Yoga
- Malefic in 12H from AL = appears to give up malice, troubles, anxieties = good image
- (Jupiter or Sun in 12H from AL = losing kingdom = bad; Saturn or Rahu in 12H = giving up suffering = good)
- Rahu in Cancer: Rahu loves being in Cancer (more than any other house). He goes to Moon's house wanting to eclipse Moon — "let him come, I'll take care of him" — alert, effective, fully operational
- MKS for Rahu = 9H (Sagittarius from Rahu's sign): Rahu placed in 9H from his desired position → no happiness/peace for what Rahu represents
- Result: Despite anxiety (8H) and hidden troubles, Rahu AD still ends in good things for Bush
