Mercury is in the 3rd house from Moon, in the house of Mars with Venus and Sun
ahead of it. Sun is hemmed in-between Mercury and Venus. This shows that he had
not been adequately supported by the people in power, during various times of his
life, more so in future. Till the end of 2006, the native will be able to maintain some
position in the party or elsewhere, but he should be careful with respect to his health
and family matters.

H.D. Deve Gowda had been the Prime Minister of India between 1996 and 1997. A
large number of diverse political outfits combined to make him the PM. He did not
have adequate strength in Parliament; the prime objective at that time was to keep
BJP out.

He shares his Cancer ascendant with Bill Clinton, Saddam Hussain, Jawahar Lal
Nehru, Indira Gandhi and V.P. Singh. This is the most conducive ascendant for
politicians, as these natives have a hard exterior, but are sympathetic, Caring and
friendly. They possess a lot of self-confidence and display the initiative and power to
outshine others. They have reliable friends as well as dangerous enemies.

Shri. Deve Gowda has completed 72 years on 18 May 2005. Let us analyse his future
prospects, as per the Bhrigu Nadi techniques.

Methodology in Bhrigu Nadi System

In Bhrigu Nadi system, the methodology to be followed in analyzing the events are
(i) there is no concept of ascendant; (ii) the horoscope should be drawn with Aries as
No. 1 i.e. the first Sign;
(iii) Importance is given to the rotation of Jupiter; (iv) Jupiter stays in each Sign for
a period of approximately 12 years.

Example: Jupiter in a native’s horoscope is in Aries. Therefore, for all practical

purposes, we consider Jupiter to be in Aries for a period of 12 years and its
conjunction/opposition etc. with other planets will determine the broad events in the
first 12 years for the native. We only take the 7th aspect into consideration and no
other aspect, which is again a deviation to be remembered. Great importance is
given to (a) the Sign in which the planet is posited; (b) the conjunction of the
planets (c) the planet which leads in the conjunction in terms of its degrees; (d)
planets which are in the 12th house of a particular planet; (e) planets which are in
the next house of the Sign in which a particular planet is placed; and (f) planets
which are opposite to the concerned planet. The planet will imbibe the quality of the
planets, of which it is a Dispositor. If Saturn is a dispositor of Jupiter and Mercury, it
will change its character accordingly and give ascribed results.

Therefore, for each 12 years, the ascendant would be the Sign where Jupiter is
placed governing the events of those 12 years, and then for the next 12 years it will
be rotated in the next house, which will govern the events for the next 12 years and
conforms to the indications of the prime placement.

What is in store for Deve Gowda?

Jupiter, if rotated as per the Bhrigu Nadi System, was in Capricorn till the age of 72.
Saturn, the Dispositor of Jupiter, is in its own house, natally. It shows, on an
average, a strong position till he completed 72 years. Currently, Jupiter, in its 7th
round (ages 72 to 84) is in Aquarius. The Dispositor Saturn now occupies the 12th
from the rotating Jupiter, denoting destruction. Because it is posited in its own
house, it will maintain its magnetism.

In the natal chart, since Rahu is behind Moon in terms of degrees, he had been able
to analyse the situations with serene mind. Mercury is in the 3rd house from Moon,
in the house of Mars with Venus and Sun ahead of it. Sun is hemmed in-between
Mercury and Venus, (Venus posited at 11 degrees is ahead of Sun at 4 degrees).
This shows that he had not been adequately supported by the people in power,
during various times of his life, more so in future.

The 5th house from the 72nd year onwards (rotating Jupiter in Aquarius taken as the
ascendant) is denoted by Gemini, whose lord is Mercury, occupying the house of
Mars natally. The Dispositor Mars is posited with powerful planets like Jupiter and
Ketu in Leo natally; so it shows success for the son to attain power. Mars and Jupiter
along with Ketu getting aspected by Moon and Rahu show mental tensions, travels
and problems in the family. In the natal Rasi chart also, the 5th house is governed
by Mars.

Taking the present transits into consideration as per the Bhrigu Nadi System, it is
seen that till the end of 2006 the native will be able to maintain some position in the
party or elsewhere, but he should be careful with respect to his health and family
matters. Issues regarding wealth or integrity need special attention from February
2007 onwards, more so from June 2007.
