The horoscope of the King of Baroda, Maharaja Sayaji Rao III Gaekwar (1863-1911)- Raja-yogas Part-6 Dec—5—2009 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 raja-yogas mainly.
15) Parivarthana raja-yoga : In Rasi Venus is lord of Libra and Jupiter is in it; Venus is in Pisces and its lord is Jupiter. Saturn is lord of Aqaurius and Mercury is in it; Mercury is lord of Virgo and Saturn is in it; these exchages of houses gave him the best benefits.
16) In the Navamsa chart Sun is in the 10th house (Gemini); Moon and Jupiter aspect (7th drushti) Sun and the 10th house; Saturn aspects (3rd drusti) the 10th house and the Sun. The royal planets Sun and Moon were afflicted. These afflictions (ava-yoga) created situations by which the Poitical Department of the British Government in India, then ruling India, hated the Maha Raja and always tried its best to harm him; at the same time the British rulers tried to show him as the darling of the nationalist India.
17) The lord of 5th house (Aries) was Mars. He was afflicated in 6th house (Sathrusthana; enemy house); besides Mars is conjunct with malefic Ketu. Rahu aspects (7th drushti) Mars. Besides Jupiter, the signficator of children, suffered Paapa karthari yoga (hemmed between Saurn and Rahu). All these malefic aspects (ava-yoga) caused damage to the puthra-bhava (children aspect). Also in Nava-amsa, Rahu spoiled the 5th house and also Venus staiying therein, Also Saturn’s aspect (10th drushti) on 5th house and Venus therein caused further damage. So his sons died while he was alive. He suffered acute grief and loss.
