The horoscope of the King of Baroda, Maharaja Sayaji Rao III Gaekwar (1863-1911)- Raja-yogas Part-8
(June—25---2009) Labels : The boy (Sayaji) was adopted as her son by the Queen-mother as soon as the Saturn sub-period started in the main period of Mercury. I give hereunder a detailed anlysis of the horoscope of the King of Baroda, Maharaja Sayaji Rao III Gaekwar (1863-1911), in 9 parts. He was by birth an ordinary peasant boy. He was adopted by the Queen of Baroda as her son. I explain the important events in his life.
1) It was the strange game of Fate; the Queen (mother) selected this ordinary peasant boy and crowned him as the King during 1875, when he was barely 12 years of age. This occurred during the end of Mercury dasa (sub-period of Saturn). Mercury was the lord of 10th house (Rajya); he was in 3rd house and was conjunct with Sun the lord of 9th house (Bhagya; luck). This was highly beneficial. In the Nava amsa, Mercury was the lord of 10th house and was in 2nd house from lagna (Dhana-sthana) and in 11th house (laabham) from Rasi-lagna (Moon).
2) The boy was adopted as her son by the Queen-mother as soon as the Saturn sub-period started in the main period of Mercury. Saturn ruled over the Parama-mithra star for the boy. Saturn was the lord of 2nd house (Dhana-sthana) in Bhava; he was conjunct with highly benefic Jupiter and was aspected (7th drushti) by exalted Venus.
