The horoscope of the King of Baroda, Maharaja Sayaji Rao III Gaekwar (1863-1911)- Raja-yogas Part-5 (Dec-4-2009
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. 12) Neecha-bhanga-raja-yoga : The Moon had a very powerful neecha-bhanga-raja-yoga. Moon was debilitated (neecha) in Scorpio; the lord of the house (Taurus) where Moon was exalted was Venus. Venus was exalted in Pisces in Kendra (4th house) from birth lagna; this caused a very powerful raja-yoga. In addition, Mars, the lord of Scorpio (where Moon’s debilitation occurred) aspected Moon (7th drushti). These raja-yogas made a very ordinary peasant boy by birth to become the mighty ruler of a huge kingdom of Baroda.
13) Sun is the lord of 9th house (Bhagya; luck and success); Mercury is the lord of 10th house (Rajya; power ro rule). Their conjunction resulted in tow powerful raja-ygas; namely, Budha-Aditya raja yoga and also Dharma-Karma adhipa raja yoga.
These occurred in the house of courage (3rd house). These beneficial aspects gave him the qualties of a ruler and also made him the King of Baroda.
14) Simhasana raja-yoga was present due to lord of birth lagna Jupiter was in 10th house (Rajya). The lord of 2nd house (Capricorn), Saturn, was also in the 10th house (Rajyam); the lord of 10th house Mercury was present in the 2nd house from lagna in Nava-amsa chart. The 10th house (Virgo) and the planets therein Jupiter and Saturn were aspected (7th drushti) by exalted Venus (highly beneficial). These clearly show that the beneficial influence of 1st, 2nd, 4th, 9th, 10th and 11th bhavas are so blended constructively and inter-related that they together contribute to his immense wealth and power the Maharaja enjoyed in his times.
