Analysis of the great Conjunction in the natal chart

The lagna is Libra and its lord Venus is posited in the 7th house conjunct with an exalted Sun, Mercury and Ketu. An exalted Sun, needless to say, is a King, making him large-hearted and also a leader. It is posited in the 7th house, conjunct Ketu (a planet signifying spirituality) and Mercury, (a planet governing finance and business acumen). This conjunction along with lagnesh Venus in the 7th house has made him an industrialist. Sun in this disposition raises a person in character, rank and dignity. The foremost principles of Astrology teaches that such a combination cannot make the native getting influenced by others; on the other hand, it exhibits magnanimity (exalted Sun), and business acumen (Mercury). Venus represents unfolding of mysteries and possession of luxuries. Ketu provides the grace of forgiveness and spiritual strength.

As the planets in conjunction in the 7th house aspect the lagna (self), it strengthens and fortifies the significations explained above.

The next 12 years clearly indicate large projects and achievements in them, as natal Rahu is posited in the 11th from the Rotated Jupiter in Sagittarius, which in turn is aspected by a conjunction of four planets.

Analysis of the mind (Moon), intellect (Mercury) and soul (Sun)
Moon representing the mind, is in the house of Jupiter (Jupiter takes care of value systems) and receives the aspect of Jupiter too, which enriches and strengthens it further. Mercury governs the intellect. It has also imbibed the qualities of other planets in conjunction, namely the exalted Sun, Venus and Ketu (which acts like Mars); it has conferred diversified, multifarious, keen, brisk and energetic intellect, as signified by the planets it is associated with.

Sun, signifying the soul is in its exalted position and the native will gain reputation, respect, awards, and distinctions from the King or the authorities of the nation and have a superior standing in the society. Thus, the planets denote the native to be a person with distinguished attributes and a complex mental trait.

Power of mutual exchange of Mars and Venus

Now the researchers may argue that Mars, the dispositor* of all the plants, is placed in the 12th to the house where the conjunction has occurred; but they are forgetting the fact that there is an exchange between Mars and Venus. This is equivalent in value to Mars and Venus occupying their own houses and much more.

The mutual exchange has made him the industrialist he is today and he will soon get into activities of the 8th house such as research, exploration of the unknown, etc.

An astrologer with little knowledge, without looking at the exchange, would highlight the fear of Mars and may ask the native to observe fasting on Tuesdays etc. the power of exchange was quite evident in the horoscope of Mrs. Indira Gandhi; but for the exchanges of planets, her horoscope was just an above-average one. No one had predicted her rise to such heights.

Association of the Dispositors of Rahu and Ketu
An important combination, which research has shown and Nadi Granthas also give importance to, is the conjunction of the dispositors of Rahu and Ketu. Rahu and Ketu are Karmic Planets, where Rahu is the giver and Ketu is the taker.

In Mukesh Ambani’s horoscope, the dispositor of Rahu (Venus) and the dispositor of Ketu (Mars) are associated with each other, due to the mutual exchange of Mars and Venus.

Late Shri Manik Chand Jain had done a lot of research on the above topic. A reference to his book would be very useful. Dr. Rajendra Prasad, the first President of India had association of the Karmic controlled planets. The list includes Kennedy, Queen Elizabeth and many other celebrities. Their horoscopes otherwise look only above-average, and do not indicate the heights they had achieved in their missions.

Impact of Nakshatra

Moola Nakshatra, in which the native is born, is signified by a “tied bunch of roots”. The ruler Ketu denotes ‘going into the bottom of things’. This Nakshatera has a lot to do with investigation of things unseen and unknown. It confers on the native the deepest sense of inquiry. The primary approach is to go into the root of things. They quickly discard things that have lost their value and underplay situations. Watch his interest in Bio-Technology and his contribution to the world.

The above analysis proves that he is strong in mind and cannot be influenced easily by anyone. This can be proved, even if we take the Moon as the Ascendant, assuming the time is incorrect by a few seconds.

It is likely that after 30 May, 2005, his accumulated wealth will increase and there will be some reduction in cash flow. He will embark on huge projects, but the native will not be happy in the matters of heart. Perhaps he will be emotionally disturbed with the younger sibling.

Attitude towards parents

Moon representing mother is aspected by Jupiter, indicating his love and complete co-operation to his mother. Sun, the Karaka for father, is exalted in the 7th, denoting the native’s respect for his father. Mr. Mukesh Ambani is bent on fulfilling the desire of his father i.e. to expand the business empire.

Bhrigu Technique of prediction

As per the Nadi system, Jupiter in rotation in the 4th round, till the 48th years, has been in Scorpio. From the 49th year (Mr. Mukesh Ambani has started on his 49th year from April 2005), in the 5th round, it will be in Sagittarius. The rotation of Jupiter assigns the ascendant for the corresponding period of 12 years. From the ages 36 to 48, Jupiter being in Scorpio, Scorpio has to be considered as the ascendant for 12 years. Potential events in life can be deduced quite accurately through this technique.

1. Jupiter in the 4th round in Scorpio has been energized by natal Saturn and so the accomplishments in the business fields were great.

2. This Jupiter has been aspected by Mars, Karaka for brother, providing positive support, mostly along these years. But the aspect of natal Saturn on Mars has sown the seeds of discord. Due to the mutual exchange with Venus (1st and 8th lord), Mars has been carrying negative energy also.
From Scorpio, Aries is the 6th house signifying disputes and Taurus is the 7th house of partnership. About 6 years back, the thought of division must have crossed the mind of the brother, when Jupiter was transiting Aries and Taurus.

3. Mercury is the dispositor of transit Jupiter in Virgo. It is also posited in the 8th house from Virgo. i.e. in Aries. So the disputes were becoming serious, towards the end of 2004. Also Mercury was the dispositor for transit Saturn in Gemini.

4. After transit Saturn moved to Cancer, towards the end of may 2005, a cordial atmosphere started prevailing. Transit Saturn’s dispositor Moon becomes associated with Rotated Jupiter in Sagittarius in his 49th years, reducing the negative energies of Saturn.

5. In the 5th of round Jupiter (in the 49th year), natal Moon in Sagittarius has been energizing the rotated Jupiter and the native’s thought process has been in agreement with is mother. From the natal Moon in Sagittarius and also the ascendant for the next 12 years, the 9th house is occupied by Jupiter natally in Leo. I.e. the dispositor of Jupiter is Sun, the Karaka for father. This will activate his value-systems, respect for his parents and sacrificing tendency.

Future prospects

The next 12 years clearly indicate large projects and achievements in them, as natal Rahu is posited in the 11th from the Rotated Jupiter in Sagittarius, which in turn is aspected by a conjunction of four planets. By the time, the transit Jupiter crosses 9 in Libra, in Dec. 2005, all disputes will come to a 100% close and Mr. Mukesh Ambani will pursue his dream projects with renewed vigour.
