Reply To: Tara Bala Homework 2 – Analysis

[Franz Karl Gurtlinger]

Tara Bala Reading. This is for a family member who was born in February 1947.

Taurus Ascendant

1st House Rahu

3rd House Cancer, Saturn Pushya Nakshatra

7th House Scorpio, Jupiter and Ketu both in Anurada Nakshatra

8th House Sagittarius, Venus in Uttara Ashada

10th House Aquarius, Mars Dhanishta, Sun in Shatabishak, Mercury is in Purva Bhadrapada

11th House Pisces, Moon in Revati

Moon Revati Nakshatra. Revati Nakshatra is ruled by Mercury. Mercury ruled Nakshatra’s are:

1. Aslesha
2. Jyesta
3. Revati

Sun, Sun The closest Mercury ruled Nakshatra is Jyesta which is a 7. Vadha Nakshatra shows seperation, loss, unmet desires. You can see this in this his life. The Mars, Mercury, Sun are in his 10th House of Career. One example of this is, after he graduated college he had ambitions to go to dental school however he was not accepted into the school he wanted to attend and life had other plans for him.

Mars, The closest Mercury ruled Nakshatra is Jyesta which is a 6. Sadhak Nakshatra. Perfecting, valuing after overcoming challenges. You can see this in his career as well as his life. He likes a challanges. After his dental school denial he over came this challenge and he found a career in another science that really interested him, Microbiology. He uses Mars in a way that is not the best of uses, he is tough and likes to fight and destroy something even relationships but comes around and find a solution that does not involve a fight.

Mercury, The closest Mercury ruled Nakshatra is Jyesta which is an 8. Maitra Nakshatra. Friendly, helpful, dutiful actions, getting assistance. In his career as a Micro Biologist he and another scientist created a new kind of centrifuge that helped in blood research. He was assisted by the other scientist who was a friend and gained some popularity in the Micro Biology world in the 1970s for their invention. Even though Mars and Mercury are not in close conjunction you can see it here Mars using action and Mercury using knowledge to create an invention.

Jupiter Ketu, Both are in the same Nakshatra of Anuradha. The closest Mercury ruled Nakshatra is Aslesha which is a  9. Parama Maitra Nakshatra. Best or highest, like Maitra but even more. Jupiter rules the 8th and 11th House of Ambitions. He is really a Jupiter type of person and one who is very knowledgeable and teacher like with his friends and collogues but he with his family he is THE AUSTRIAN conservative when dealing with the family and politics. Austria is culturally a conservative society different from the United States or an American point of view. He is the head of the household and lets it be known. What is also very interesting about him is he is a scientist but with a very open mind in things such as religion, an interest in the supernatural, interest in psychic abilities which some people do possess in our family, and just open mindedness toward various subjects. He always had a great interest in blood and loved working as a microbiologist in blood banks. Also a funny story about him, when the movie Silence of The  Lambs came out he looked so much like Anthony Hopkins from the movie and was so fond of working with blood his collogues, especially women collogues would jokingly call him Hannibal Lecter. He seemed to enjoy that title for the time.

Venus The closest Mercury ruled Nakshatra is Jyesta. Venus is a 4 which is Kshema Nakshatra. Security, property, home, well being and peace. Venus rules the 1sth and 6th houses and is in the 8th House. He has a kind of Jupiter 8th House kind of personality and also works very hard in a job which is also a service to humanity  and works with substances that would make anyone not feel good being around for a long period of time. He has had a secure life even from his childhood and he grew up in wealthy but not rich family. It was a very happy household he grew up in. He is very mysterious with his finances he seems to be very frugal but he bought his homes with cash and he also has different kind of investments but never talks about them with the family. He also likes his peace at home. He only likes to go out when need be and when he does it on hikes or outings with the family.

Saturn, The closest Mercury ruled Nakshatra is Revati which is a 9. Parama Mitra Nakshatra. Best or highest, like Maitra but even more. Saturn is the father of time and hard work. He believes in working hard in an amount of time to succeed. He lets other family members know that you only have so much time or it will pass you by.

Rahu, The closest Mercury ruled Nakshatra is Revati which is a 5. Averted, missed, unfulfilled and looking for more. Rahu is in the first house it is exalted in Taurus here. He does have a personality that seems to have missed somethings in life, especailly when he talks about some opportunities but he has also averted problems in his life as well.

In January he has just started his Jupiter Dasha. I want to use this to see how some of the planetary relationships might play out during this period. Jupiter Dasha is the following.

1. Ju/Ju
2. Ju/Sa
3. Ju/Me
4. Ju/Ke
5. Ju/Su
6. Ju/Mo
7. Ju/Ma
8. Ju/Ra

I am not going to go through all the Antra Dashas but just one in particular that caught my eye when looking at his cart. Ju/Sa especailly Ju/Sa/Ke.

Ju/Sa Dates 3/15/2024 to 9/27/2026  and Ju/Sa/Ke 12/18/2024 to 2/9/2025. This will be an important time period for him. Jupiter Saturn  Ketu relationship. Jupiter and Ketu are conjunct in Anuradha Nakshatra. This Nakshatra is ruled by Saturn. Saturn is also in Pushya Nakshatra also ruled by Saturn. In Tara Bala, Jupiter, Ketu, and Saturn are in a Nakshatra ruled by Saturn.  The relationship between Jupiter Saturn and Ketu is a 1. Ideas and beginnings, but self absorbed. This Dasha time period will be about new beginnings but with the 8th and 11th house ruler it could be of difficult transformations the could lead to new ambitions.  He should watch and not over react when problems arise especially in a selfish manner as he does sometimes. Saturn is in the 3rd House of syblings and could have to do with his younger sister as well. Ketu could also bring up things that are hidden deeply at this time. As my understading of Astrology expands, it really will be interesting to see how this Dasha period will turn out. Lets see.

I hope this was the correct way of doing Tara Bala. Thanks again
