Astrological factors for massive fame | Vedic Astrology

There can be over 100 combinations for massive fame in Vedic astrology. However, I am sharing some very striking ones. Please don’t apply these dogmatically. Analyzing a horoscope isn’t as simple as pressing a button and expecting straightforward results—it requires a comprehensive approach and careful synthesis of all factors.

I’m including insights from both Jaimini and Parashari systems because they are not separate systems. The great sage Parashara has discussed both in a single text. For a sound analysis of a horoscope, the principles of both systems must be integrated.

Parashari Combinations for Fame:

Moon’s Nakshatra Connection: Moon in the nakshatra of the 10th lord, or the ascendant nakshatra, adds strength.

Rajyogas: More than 15 Rajyogas in a chart. Rajyogas are formed through associations of trines (trikonas) and quadrants (kendra). Presence of yogas like:

Gajakesari Yoga

Parijata Yoga

Mala Yoga

Raj-Lakshan Yoga

Any of the Panch Maha-Purusha Yogas

Mahabhagya Yoga

Neecha-Bhanga Raj Yoga

Parivartan Yoga (involving good houses)

Vipreet Rajyoga.

Consistency Across Divisional Charts: The same planet should have relevance to the Lagna in D-1, D-2, D-9, D-3, D-12, and D-30 charts. For instance, Saturn in the ascendant of all these charts (excluding Rahu-Ketu). D-1, D-3, and D-9 are the most significant.

Rahu-Ketu Sign Lords: The sign lord of Rahu or Ketu involved in a Rajyoga strengthens fame. If both sign lords participate, it indicates exceptional fame.

3rd Lord Placement: The 3rd lord in the 10th house (especially) or 7th house forms a favorable combination.

Debilitation of Malefics: Lords of the 3rd, 6th, or 8th houses being debilitated, or debilitated planets in these houses, serve as positive boosters.

Benefics in the 10th from Moon: Benefic planets placed in the 10th house from the Moon in D-1, D-9, D-10, and D-60 enhance fame.

Jaimini Combinations for Fame:

1. From Lagna and Karakamsha: The combination of the 5th lord, Atmakaraka, Amatyakaraka, or Putrakaraka, or their association, is significant. Check these in D-9, D-10, and D-60 charts as well.
2. Saturn or Mercury in Karakamsha: Saturn or Mercury placed in or aspecting the Karakamsha, especially if Saturn is also aspected by benefics or Putrakaraka. This can also be applied for the Arudha Lagna.
3. Moon or Venus in 4th/10th from Karakamsha: These placements indicate strong fame.
4. Arudha Pada in 7th/10th House: When the Arudha Pada falls in the 7th or 10th house, it strongly supports fame.

Key Notes:

For temporary fame, fewer yogas suffice, with a stronger role played by the 3rd and 8th houses. The 8th house, in particular, often gives international recognition.

These combinations, though present in many charts, must occur in significant numbers within a single chart for stable and massive fame.

Few examples:

Before moving ahead, let me clarify that all the birth charts referenced here are accurate and sourced from Astro Data Bank (AA or A ratings) and Shri K.N. Rao’s data bank.

Astrology is a subject where patterns can often be generalized—after all, thousands of people are born within a span of two hours under the same ascendant, yet only a few achieve fame while others do not. This is why it’s easy for astrologers to fit interpretations to most charts. However, the chart of a truly famous individual stands out and provides a clearer picture, especially when divisional charts are analyzed alongside it.

Always remember that the foundation is the D-1 chart. If someone has an extremely strong D-1 chart, the divisional charts must align and support its promise for fulfillment. Without this synergy, the potential indicated in D-1 remains unfulfilled and therefore, worthless.

Example-1

This is the correct birth chart of Shah Rukh Khan, the famous Bollywood actor. He is a Libra Lagna with the 7th lord Venus conjoined with Ketu in the 2nd house, indicating marriage in a different religion. If we were to consider a Leo ascendant, Saturn in the 7th house would suggest marriage within a lower caste but not a different religion.

His father’s early death is reflected in the chart: the Moon in the 4th house acts as the 8th house for his father (from the 9th house). The 9th house is occupied by the 6th lord, aspected by the 8th lord from the 3rd house. Additionally, the 9th lord Mars is conjoined with Ketu, and these configurations are present from the Sun as well, with the Sun placed in the Lagna.

Now, why has he achieved such immense fame? His Arudha Lagna has Saturn, and his 11th house contains Venus, clearly denoting income from cinema. Jupiter aspects the Sun, forming a Raj Lakshana Yoga. The sign lord of Ketu participates in a Raj Yoga, and the Sun is in the Lagna in D-1, D-9, and D-3 charts.

His Karakamsha is Pisces, with Venus in the 10th house from it. The 5th lord, Moon, acts as the Amatyakaraka (AmK) and shares a Jaimini aspect with Mars, the Atmakaraka (AK). In D-9, Saturn in Pisces contributes to his fame. Mercury, Moon, and Venus also show significant associations—Mercury being the 5th lord, Venus the Darakaraka (DK), and Moon the AmK.

Such combinations clearly explain his fame, wealth, and success in the world of cinema.

Example-2

This is the birth chart of India’s Prime Minister, Narendra Modi. After some research, I now consider his Libra Lagna chart, whereas earlier I used to work with a Scorpio Lagna.

Why did he become famous?

1. Nakshatra and Saturn’s Placement:
   Modi was born in the nakshatra of Saturn, which is placed in the 10th house from the Moon, forming Amla Yoga. This indicates enduring fame and a legacy. Saturn’s influence brings discipline and persistence.
2. Venus and Personal Style:
   Venus, being the planet closest to the Lagna degree, highlights his refined sense of style, good fashion sense, and fame.
3. Saturn as Atmakaraka (AK):
   Saturn as the Atmakaraka reflects his Sanyasi-like attitude and disciplined lifestyle. His Karakamsha Lagna (KL) is Sagittarius, with Mercury and the Sun in the 10th house from it. This combination signifies leadership and communication skills. Additionally, the Amatyakaraka (AmK, Mercury) and the Atmakaraka (Saturn) are conjunct and positioned in a Kendra or trine from the Karakamsha, a powerful configuration.
4. 6th Lord’s Weakness and Suppression of Enemies:
   The 6th lord is weak due to suppression by Venus and Saturn, which are also his Amatyakaraka and Atmakaraka. Saturn’s role as the 5th lord creates a strong Raj Yoga, and its conjunction with the 3rd lord (Mars) in a Kendra from the 10th lord (Moon) strengthens his influence.
5. Argala and Moon’s Role:
   The Moon, as the 10th lord, forms Argala to the 10th house and aspects it with Jaimini aspects. This provides additional support for his career and public recognition.
6. Additional Yogas:
   Other notable yogas like Gajakesari Yoga and several Raj Yogas further contribute to his success and fame.

These planetary configurations explain his rise to global prominence and enduring legacy as a leader.

Example-3

There is no controversy about Sachin Tendulkar’s chart, so it is appropriate to proceed with any analysis. His 10th house and its lord are exceptionally strong, supporting his legendary career.

1. Moon and Venus Connection:
   The Moon is in the nakshatra of Venus, and Venus is placed in the 10th house, signifying immense fame, public adoration, and a career marked by excellence.
2. Powerful Conjunctions:
   The 5th lord, Atmakaraka (AK), and Putrakaraka (PK) are conjunct in the 7th house, indicating skill, creativity, and long-lasting influence on his audience (public or partnerships).
3. Karakamsha Lagna (KL) and Arudha Lagna (AL):
   • The Karakamsha Lagna is Virgo, aspected by Mercury, enhancing intelligence and mastery in his craft.
   • The Arudha Lagna is Taurus, with Saturn positioned in it, showcasing stability, hard work, and enduring fame.
4. Rahu and Ketu’s Influence:
   The sign lord of Rahu is very strong, representing material success and worldly recognition. Ketu’s sign lord is average, showing moderate spiritual influence.
5. Debilitated Malefics in 3rd and 6th Houses:
   The 3rd and 6th lords are debilitated, reducing challenges and ensuring fewer obstacles in his journey to success.
6. Benefic Influence in the 10th from the Moon:
   The benefic influence on the 10th house from the Moon reflects not just career-related success but also widespread admiration beyond cricket, making him a global icon.

These factors, combined with Sachin’s natural talent and hard work, have made him one of the greatest cricketers of all time.

Example-4

In the chart of the USA’s president, the Arudha Lagna (AL) is aspected by Saturn, reflecting a strong connection with discipline and perseverance. The Karakamsha Lagna (KL) is Virgo, with Jupiter and Mercury in the 10th house, both aspecting the KL. This combination highlights intellectual prowess and strategic thinking in leadership.

The ascendant is in the nakshatra of the 10th lord, and the Lagna Lord is placed in the 10th house, emphasizing a life focused on career achievements and public responsibilities.

Additionally, the chart features Vipreet Rajyoga, Raj-Lakshan Yoga, and other significant combinations, all contributing to immense success and prominence.

Example-5

In Amitabh Bachchan’s chart, Saturn is positioned in the Arudha Lagna (AL), signifying hard work, resilience, and a life shaped by discipline. The Karakamsha Lagna (KL) is Leo, with Rahu placed there, while Saturn occupies the 10th house, highlighting his immense public recognition and career prominence.

He is born in the nakshatra of Rahu, which is placed in the 7th house, also the 10th from the 10th house (Karma Bhava), a powerful indicator of professional success. The ascendant falls in the nakshatra of the 10th lord, further emphasizing a career-oriented life path. Benefics in the 10th house from the Moon add to his noble public image and widespread fame.

Raj-Yoga from the 8th House:
The chart reveals a Raj-Yoga originating from the 8th house, indicating significant ups and downs, struggles, and eventual breakthroughs that have defined his life and career.

Benefics in the 10th House:
Benefics in the 10th house from the Moon or Lagna signify fame and noble deeds. This alignment is a hallmark of individuals with enduring influence and a positive legacy. In the case of politicians, this placement is often missing or overshadowed by malefics. However, in Narendra Modi’s chart, both Venus and Jupiter are present, with Saturn contributing to his political career.
