Maya in the Horoscope – 4
The Glue That Keeps Us Earth Bound

Bill Cosby, the quintessential ‘father’ of modern times, has his lagna pada placed in the ninth house, the house that represents father and in doing so sits smack on rahu, the indicator of images and film/television! Rahu represents mars in this chart (since it occupies Scorpio), hence the somewhat ‘cutting’ edge to his ironical, satirical humor, the wry, tough-love approach. Mars is also the atmakaraka, by the way, hence fits in the picture well. Mercury, the patron lord of comedians casts aspect on aroodha from the 5th house (entertainment, children). Bill is very ‘natural’ with children, as seen in his television sitcoms and shows.

The lord of fifth in 6th, the lord of 2nd in 8th, Jupiter aspecting from 11th, the fifth house (partial cancellation due to angular Saturn), are not good indications for family in personal life (his son was killed a few years ago). Perhaps saptamamsha will give more indications of this. This chart is a good example of how deceiving exaltation can be when considered as a sole factor (sometimes done because of the obvious convenience). In V7 saptamesha, Jupiter is exalted (retrograde) in 5th house. However, it is weak in shadbala and the putrakaraka Venus is placed in the 12th house (loss). The 5th pada falls in the 3rd house with gulika in it. Lord of fifth, moon is placed in 7th (in Jaimini aspect) from 8th pada (maranapada), again not good for longevity of children. Such is the maya!

Speaking of ‘maya’ and particularly of screen personalities and their maya, we cannot but skip past the phenomenal “super-star” of Bollywood, Mr. Angry Young Man, Amitabh Bachchan, the heart-throb of my generation and at least one more after mine! His intense, on-screen persona and his immense acting skills that added to his range going from the almost ‘schizoid’ poet in “Saat Hindustani” to his role in Zanzeer and the contrasting bubbly roles in other movies have won many a hearts. Before he became the ‘Lovable Mr. Lamboo’ from whom the public will take anything, he was brought to notice by his intense, nearly silent roles.
