POLITICS AND POLITICIANS are always in the news worldwide. The days of Kings have gone and so we elect the people who govern us. Normally, politicians prefer politics as a career for
Primarily, one or more reasons of the above will be their motive to take up this career. In today’s world, a politician is someone who is elected to the Governing Body of the Nation. Since politicians occupy a vital position in the Government and society, they should have a special combination in their birth chart. It would be interesting to see what are their special combinations which makes one a successful politician.
In Astrological classical works like BPHS (or) Phaladeepika, several combinations are given for a successful political career. In the olden days, they are called Rajayogas and even today these yogas manifest in different ways. Not only in politics but people successful in different walks of life have a considerable number of Rajayogas.
Jaimini as we all know was a disciple of Vedvyasa and Parasara. His system of Astrology is unique in many ways. In this system, Astrology is written in the form of sutras so they are called Jaimini sutras. Some of the terms used in the Jaimini system are Karaka planets, aspects Karakamsa Lagna, Upapadam, etc. We will just see some of these terms before looking at what the Jaimini system has to tell us about politicians.
Planets do not have aspects in the Jaimini system. Instead, aspects are considered from signs.
The role played by planets is identified by the longitude in which they are placed. We should arrange the planets in decreasing order of longitude and each one is Karaka for a particular function.(Source: https://books.google.com/books?id=_68REAAAQBAJ)
Planets in decreasing order of longitude are Atma karaka, Amatya karaka, Brhatru karaka, Matru karaka, Putra karaka, Jnathi karaka and Dara karaka.
The karakas shown above will change for each chart.(Source: https://books.google.com/books?id=_68REAAAQBAJ) So they are called ‘’Chara karakas’’. Apart from Mars, Venus, Mercury, and Jupiter have fixed responsibilities, and hence they are called ‘’Sthira karakas’’.
Combination for politicians as per Jaimini System – Rajayogas
Conditions
The more combinations will give rise to powerful Rajayogas. One has to see both Rasi and Navamsa to ascertain the position.
Saturn and the Sun are the two planets identified to form a powerful support for a politician. In Ashtakavarga, if both Sun and Saturn have more than 4 bindus in their 6th and 11th place, then it gives rise to a politician. If Sarvastakavarga has 31 to 48 bindus in 6th and 11th houses then it will give rise to a politician.
In conventional Astrology, different Rajayogas give rise to a successful politician or a king-like position. An attempt has been made to take a cue from Jaimini Astrology for understanding political success.
