Utilizing Lord Krishna's divine gift, Jyotish Vedic Astrology including siderealzodiac, the constellations of stars, we can see the exact planetary placement ofThe President's Rasi chart, his Birth chart.

"Rasismanas mean the rising periods of the twelve signs of the zodiac.According to the Hindus it is not possible to find out the actual Lagna(Ascendant) in a horoscope or the different Bhavas (Houses) or the sunrise andsunset in any place without a knowledge of the Rasimanas, which vary fromAkshamsa (latitude) to Akshamsa. It must be noted that the Rasimana is alwaysgiven in Sayana (with precession) that is to say, the time of oblique ascension iscomputed for the signs of the moveable zodiac. From this is subtracted theAyanamsa and the appropriate time of the oblique ascension and the result is theNirayana Rasimana." - - B.V. Raman

2. In the Birth chart Saturn aspects the 10th house of political status.

3. Saturn is in his own sign of Capricorn in the Navamsha.This is Vargottama, adding more strength, power and status to Saturn in hisRasi chart.

3. Moon exalted in Taurus in the 5th house, a Lakshmi Sthana.

4. From Chandra Lagna or the Moon Chart Saturn is a Yogakaraka.

5. Jupiter conjunct with Saturn in the Capricorn Lagna, give rise to NeechaBhanga Rajayoga.

Calculating through Vimsottari Dasha system, President Barack Obama is goingthrough Saturn Mahadasa and Bhukti.

Some astrologers have stated the fact there is Sasha Yoga given by Saturnrotating in his own sign of Capricorn, but Saturn is retrograde and he will givethe result of being debilitated.

However, others astrologers have referred to Brihat Parashara Hora Shastra,Chapter 47, 3-4 stating: "The effects of the Dashas of the Grahas are inaccordance with their strength. The effects of a Graha in the first Dreshkan arerealized at the commencement of the Dasha. The Graha in the second Dreshkanmakes its effects felt in the middle of the Dasha. The effects of the Graha in thethird Dreshkan are experienced at the end of the Dasha. If the Graha isretrograde, these effects would be in the reverse order."

Seen through the eyes of sidereal zodiac, Saturn is at 2° of Capricorn, the firstDreshkan in Barack Obama's Rasi chart.

At any rate, we can clearly understand that the position of Sani in Obama'schart, was not an impediment to his re-election. Incidentally, Saturn has beentransiting his exalted sign, Libra, since 2011 - according to sidereal. And therehave been several Republicans who suggested that "Super Storm Sandy" helpedObama to win a second term as President.

"GOP strategist Karl Rove, who called the race for Republican Mitt Romney a fewdays ago, now says Hurricane Sandy helped President Obama and caused theRomney campaign to stutter in its message on the economy."

Stuart Stevens, Romney’s top strategist, told Charlie Rose on PBS that the stormpulled focus from the Republican’s message in the race’s crucial final stretch."Hurricane Sandy helped swamp Mitt Romney’s presidential campaign."

NBC News: "New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg endorsed President BarackObama on Thursday, invoking Hurricane Sandy and the president's work toaddress climate change. As New York reels from the fallout of this week'shurricane, which caused 37 deaths in the city, Bloomberg said Obama wasbetter-suited than Republican presidential nominee Mitt Romney to curb carbonemissions. ... The endorsement comes, though, amid one of the worst storms tobatter the New York area in recent history, Obama's response to which has

drawn him plaudits from a bipartisan array of figures, including New Jersey Gov.Chris Christie (R)."

Bloomberg wrote: "The devastation that Hurricane Sandy brought to New YorkCity and much of the Northeast – in lost lives, lost homes and lost business –brought the stakes of Tuesday’s presidential election into sharp relief. Ourclimate is changing. And while the increase in extreme weather we haveexperienced in New York City and around the world may or may not be the resultof it, the risk that it might be – given this week's devastation – should compel allelected leaders to take immediate action."

Oddly, within the force of this disastrous hurricane, "Super Storm Sandy", Sani -Saturn's stormy malefic features, did have some favorable influence for Obama.

What is Jyotish? Most individuals do not know that all their material activities arebeing observed by different demigods and are being recorded for their nextbody. Astrological calculations are called jyoti-scripture. Because the jyoti, oreffulgence, in the material world comes from the different stars and planets, thescience is called jyoti-shastra, the science of the luminaries. By the calculationsof jyoti, our future is indicated. All the luminaries—the stars, sun and moon—

witness the activities of the conditioned soul who is then forced to accept aparticular type of body according to their karma. The physical body, itself, is atemporary physical machine. So success with that “Golden Globe” award orfailure with that “Oscar” may be important to some, but they are simplytemporary occurrences as the passing of waves on an ocean.

Jyotish has this very special ability for delineating the birth and karma of theliving entity. Thus the person is given the understanding of their dharma, artha,kama and moksa. However, the primary duty of Jyotish is to provide properguidance for moksa or liberation from the cycle of birth and death altogether.

"Astronomical calculations of stellar influences upon a living being are notsuppositions, but are factual, as confirmed in Srimad-Bhagavatam. Every livingbeing is controlled by the laws of nature at every minute, just as a citizen iscontrolled by the influence of the state. The state laws are grossly observed, butthe laws of material nature, being subtle to our gross understanding, cannot beexperienced grossly. As stated in the Bhagavad-gita (3.9), every action of lifeproduces another reaction, which is binding upon us, and only those who areacting on behalf of Yajna (Visnu) are not bound by reactions. Our actions arejudged by the higher authorities, the agents of the Lord, and thus we areawarded bodies according to our activities." - - Srila Prabhupada

Jyotish is one of the Vedangas or limbs of the Vedas. Today, we are fortunate tohave Jyotish classics available for our guidance. Brihat Jataka, Saravali and ofcourse the Brihat Parashara Hora Shastra are ancient books to study and put inuse to benefit others. Jyotish is for serious and truthful individuals who wish tounderstand this splendid science of astrology and to utilize it properly, as definedin the Brihat Parashara Hora Shastra and other authorized scriptures.

" I a m s e a t e d i n e v e r y o n e ' s h e a r t , a n d f r o m M e c o m e r e m e m b r a n c e ,k n o w l e d g e a n d f o r g e t f u l n e s s . B y a l l t h e V e d a s , I a m t o b e k n o w n .I n d e e d , I a m t h e c o m p i l e r o f V e d a n t a , a n d I a m t h e k n o w e r o f t h eV e d a s ."

PURPORTThe Supreme Lord is situated as Paramatma in everyone's heart, and it is fromHim that all activities are initiated. The living entity forgets everything of his pastlife, but he has to act according to the direction of the Supreme Lord, who iswitness to all his work. Therefore he begins his work according to his past deeds.Required knowledge is supplied to him, and remembrance is given to him, andhe forgets, also, about his past life. Thus, the Lord is not only all-pervading; Heis also localized in every individual heart. He awards the different fruitive results.He is worshipable not only as the impersonal Brahman, the Supreme Personalityof Godhead, and the localized Paramatma, but as the form of the incarnation of

the Vedas as well. The Vedas give the right direction to people so that they canproperly mold their lives and come back to Godhead, back to home. The Vedasoffer knowledge of the Supreme Personality of Godhead, Krsna, and Krsna in Hisincarnation as Vyasadeva [son of Parashara Muni] is the compiler of theVedanta-sutra. - - Srila Prabhupada

All Vedic knowledge is given by the Supreme Lord, revealed to Lord Brahma anddistributed by the Vedic sages such as Narada Muni, Parashara Muni and otherdisciplined followers. Thus, the Vedas are maintained by the sampradaya system,disciplic succession.

Among the many aspects of the Vedas, Parashara Muni was taught Jyotish VedicAstrology and he explained this knowledge to his disciple Maitreya. Thus wehave the informative Brihat Parashara Hora Shastra to study. Parashara Munialso gave advice to Maitreya in the Visnu Purana.

BPHS 97.1-4. Maharishi Parasara said. " O Brahmin! I have described to you theJyotish Shastra, as narrated by Lord Brahma to the Sage Narada and by Naradato Shaunaka and other Sages, from whom I received the knowledge of thisShastra. I have narrated the same Jyotish Shastra, which I learnt from them. Donot impart the knowledge of this Shastra to one, who is insignificative, slanders,or calumniates others, nor to one, who is not intelligent, is wicked and unknownto you. Teach this supreme Vedanga Jyotish Shastra only to one, who is gentleand amiable, devoted, truthful, brilliant and well known to you."

Parashara Muni explained to Maitreya in the Visnu Purana (3.8.9) exactly how tobe devoted, to be devoted means to be devoted to the Supreme Lord.

"The Supreme Personality of Godhead, Lord Visnu, is worshiped by the properexecution of prescribed duties in the system of varnasrama-dharma. There is noother way to satisfy the Lord."

As the great speaker of the Puranas, Parashara first of all spoke on the Srimad-Bhagavata Purana because it is the foremost of all the Puranas. Maitreya Munidesired to narrate the same Bhagavatam he had heard from Parashara, andVidura was qualified to hear it because of his faithfulness and his following theinstructions received from superiors. So Srimad-Bhagavatam was being narratedfrom time immemorial by the disciplic succession, even before the time ofVyasadeva. The so-called historians calculate the Puranas to be only a fewhundred years old, but factually the Puranas existed from time immemorial,before all historical calculations by the mundaners and speculative philosophers.

You'll find that astrologers who are not devotedly following the transcendentalguidance coming from one of the bona fide sampradayas will refer to the Vedas,

the Puranas as "mythology". Some may even suggest that there is no longer aconnection with the original Vedic knowledge of the Srimad Bhagavatam and thePuranas. But this is how they cheat themselves. Rahu’s business... Rahu’sbusiness is cheating, but he was cheated instead. Rahu acquired only a sip ofnectar, not the full blessings. Rahu was in good company, he had theopportunity to do right, but instead of acting properly, he chose to disguisehimself and attempt to cheat. This was Rahu’s foolishness, not accepting theomnipotent supremacy of Lord Krsna who was present in the assembly. I'm surewe all know the history. Now Rahu attacks the luminaries, to eclipse them. Theluminaries are blocked temporarily. However, the demigods, their abodes, alongwith their celestial service remain beneficial and uninterrupted. In addition, LordKrsna promises to provide His reliable, unshakable protection to all thedemigods, devotees, saints and sages:

“Although I am unborn and My transcendental body neverdeteriorates, and although I am the Lord of all living entities, I stillappear in every millennium in My original transcendental form.Whenever and wherever there is a decline in religious practice, Odescendant of Bharata, and a predominant rise of irreligion—at thattime I descend Myself. To deliver the pious and to annihilate themiscreants, as well as to reestablish the principles of religion, I adventMyself millennium after millennium.” BG. 4.6-4.8

Revealed knowledge may in the beginning be unbelievable because of ourparadoxical desire to verify everything with our tiny brains, but the speculativemeans of attaining knowledge is always imperfect. The perfect knowledgepropounded in the revealed scriptures is confirmed by bona fide saints, sagesand authorized acharyas, who have left ample purports upon them. All of theLord’s incarnations have been authentically recorded in the Srimad-Bhagavatam,purging impostors and assuring that His reliable, transcendental sampradayasystem remain present on the planet.

There are four lines of disciplic succession: one from Lord Brahma, one fromLord Siva, one from Laksmi, the goddess of fortune, and one from the Kumaras.The disciplic succession from Lord Brahma is called the Brahma-sampradaya, thesuccession from Lord Siva (Sambhu) is called the Rudra-sampradaya, the onefrom the goddess of fortune, Laksmi, is called the Sri-sampradaya, and the onefrom the Kumaras is called the Kumara-sampradaya. One must take shelter ofone of these four sampradayas in order to understand the most confidentialVedic wisdom.
