Notes on Srila Prabhupada's Astrological Chart In Regard to Poisoning

By Jai Hari (James Spencer)

Srila Prabhupada had an interesting 8th house of death. The 8th house rules one's life force, the ability for the soul to stay in the body. Srila Prabhupada has three planets in this house, namely Ketu, Sun and Jupiter. Jupiter is malefic and the Sun is benefic. Because the Sun is the karmic controlling planet in this situation, we must give Lordship to his power of rulership in this house.

Srila Prabhupada would experience some difficulties in life during Sun, Ketu major or minor periods. Both Sun and Ketu periods of life are life threatening periods. This is the worst case scenario. Jupiter periods of life would be much more auspicious.

Sun, Ketu and Jupiter are all killers in this horoscope. Three killers sitting in the 8th house of death, waiting to be triggered by Saturn's entrance into Srila Prabhupada's 8th house. Saturn was in the 8th house when Srila Prabhupada left this planet. Saturn did not do the killing, as he is not a direct killer in this chart. Saturn only pointed to the time and Sun, Ketu and Jupiter did the killing.

The 8th house is a moksha house. Every planet in Srila Prabhupada's 8th house is in a state of moksha. Jupiter own's Srila Prabhupada's 12 house. The 12th is a Moksha house. Therefore, although Jupiter is a killer, he is also a liberator. Ketu is in the 8th house and Ketu is the planet of liberation and wisdom. The Sun is Atma, the spirit-soul. It's presence and ownership of the 8th house produce's three enlightened planets in the 8th house. All three are under strong karmic forces due to Ketu's influence. Ketu highly spiritualizes Srila Prabhupada's natal Sun. Srila Prabhupada was a great teacher on how to die. If you read His books, you will see how much Prabhupada influenced and motivated each of us through discussion on death. All 8th house stuff.

At the time of Srila Prabhupada's departure from this mortal world, stately Saturn was transiting through the 8th house of death. Srila Prabhupada was born with Saturn in an excellent position, exalted in the 10th house of status and worldly recognition. Saturn is a karmic controlling planet in the life of Srila Prabhupada. Saturn is Lord of Srila Prabhupada's Lagna, a powerful house indicating rise to great recognition. Srila Prabhupada display the highest qualities of Saturn in His life. Saturn gains dispositor ship of Rahu who sits in the 2nd house of speech, food we eat, knowledge and wealth. Srila Prabhupada reaped the rewards of His exalted and highly spiritualized Saturn, as Lord and master of His destiny. HOME

The fact that Saturn was in this death house is very auspicious. Because Saturn was in this house, all other planets were in samadhi at the time of death. The whole 8th house was in a state of liberation.

The forces of Saturn and Rahu are unsurpassed in strength and influence in the life of Srila Prabhupada. They are the main karmic controlling forces in Srila Prabhupada's life. Rahu is in Srila Prabhupada's 2nd house. Rahu protects this house with utmost power of influence. The malefic Sun, Ketu and Jupiter do not control Rahu in the 2nd. Srila Prabhupada attained great wealth and power. This is Rahu in the 2nd house of wealth having fortunate Saturn as his dispositor. Even though Srila Prabhupada had great wealth he was totally renounced. A true quality of a highly evolved Saturn person.

Rahu/Saturn protects Srila Prabhupada from death by poisoning.

Speaking from a material point of few, Srila Prabhupada's placement of Jupiter, Ketu and Sun are certainly malefic forces. Very capable of death, sickness, adversity, deceit, hidden factors, slander, mystery and intrigue. The very fact that this issue of Srila Prabhupada poisoning has come forth at a time when Rahu is transiting Leo right now (Prabhupada's 8th house) indicates the eruption of this controversy. Srila Prabhupada would certainly be embarrassed by some of the things that have taken place in ISKCON over the past years. Slander, deceit, mystery, intrigue all belong to this 8th house of Srila Prabhupada. Srila Prabhupada would face these types of issues in his life and after also. To say that person's may want to kill Prabhupada, to deceive Him, to defame Him, to food poison Him is indicated by Jupiter, Ketu and Sun. There would be plots against Him. Threat's known or unknown. Srila Prabhupada's 8th house indicates these things in Prabhupada's life.

Still, the plot could not succeed due to the protective forces of Saturn and Rahu. Saturn/Rahu control the destiny of Srila Prabhupada. Both these planets are powerful and control the whole life. Saturn and Rahu are exalted in Srila Prabhupada's chart.
