Chart Analysis:
- Richard Nixon:
(1.Richard Nixon working on a hotel bed 2. The fireplace in the Lincoln Sitting Room)
The Lincoln Sitting Room became Richard Nixon’s favourite spot in the house (he even had it replicated in his presidential library). He liked to work beside its roaring fireplace so much that he sometimes lit a fire even in the summer and had the air-conditioning turned on. He listened to his favourite music, the score of Victory at Sea, as he worked in his favourite brown easy chair.
Background:
Other than the Ascendant being in Purva Phalguni, Richard Nixon’s Bhrigu Bindu is also in Purva Phalguni. The Lord of the Purva Phalguni is Venus which is posited in the 7H of Public Platform! The Lagna lord Sun is in the 5H of King or Minister of King with Mars (Lord of 4H – government work and 9H of Coronation), Mercury (Lord of 11H and 2H) and Jupiter (Lord of 5H and 8H – transformation or
punishment by the government). In the 1962 election for Governor of California he lost and the defeat was widely believed to be the end of his political career. He said, “You won’t have Nixon to kick around anymore because, gentlemen, this is my last press conference”. Yet, despite this he went on to become the 36th Vice President of the USA and its 37th President.
Interpretation:
- Soft speech or not garrulous (story of Buddha & Yasodhara)/Silence: In his inaugural address Richard Nixon said: ”In these difficult years, America has suffered from a fever of words; from inflated rhetoric that promises more than it can deliver; from angry rhetoric that fans discontents into hatreds; from bombastic rhetoric that postures instead of persuading. We cannot learn from one another until we stop shouting at one another, until we speak quietly enough so that our words can be heard as well as our voices.” Richard Nixon also delivered his ‘Silent Majority’ speech on the Vietnam War, articulating his belief that the bulk of the American people supported his policies and programs.
- Aloof: In the book a Psychobiography of Richard Nixon, it is mentioned that he was aloof in his relationship with individuals but had great appeal to the public.
- Forgive and Forget: Richard Nixon had to resign due to the Watergate scandal. If not he would have been impeached. After this resignation, he was forgiven (pardoned) by President Gerald Ford for his unlawful activities
- Water is connected with Purva Phalguni:
This is the Watergate Hotel complex the heart of the Watergate scandal. This housed the office of the Democratic National Committee from where some confidential information was sought to be stolen purportedly at the behest of Richard Nixon. This action brought an end to the tenure of Richard Nixon
- Rat or Rat like: Donald Henry Segretti was a former political operative for then- U.S. President Richard Nixon’s Committee to Re-elect the President (CREeP) during the early 1970s. Segretti was hired to run a campaign of dirty tricks (which he dubbed “rat****ing“) against the Democrats, with his work being paid for by Nixon’s lawyer, from presidential campaign re-election. His actions were part of the larger Watergate scandal, and were important indicators for the few members of the press actively investigating the Watergate scandal in the earliest stages that what became known as the Watergate scandal involved far more than just a simple break in.

- Dustin Hoffman:
Dustin Hoffman became famous after his 1967 film, ‘The Graduate’ and this is the most famous scene from his film on the Purva Phalguni bed
Background:
In addition to Mercury (with Moon) being in Purva Phalguni, Mercury is also in its Pushkara Bhaga in 19 deg. Leo (18 deg. 44’). Mercury represents speech, script writing, witty language, grammar. Mercury is in the 9th in the Pushkara Bhaga and also in the natural 5 H of the zodiac which took him to the zenith of this profession via the masses (Moon).
Interpretation:
- Fame and Renown are special features: From being a Set Decorator’s son, a college drop-out to being unemployed and scrounging for any available acting jobs for 10 years in his youth to being the winner of two Academy Awards, six Golden Globes and four BAFTAs his fame and renown spread quite widely via Hollywood
- The Bed: After The Graduate became a hit, he was much sought after by the media and he gave this interview sitting on his bed
- Eye on Principles: “Hoffman testified during the trial that he steadfastly refused to make product endorsements as a matter of artistic principle and pride. The magazine acknowledged that it did not seek his permission when it used his photo. In his closing argument Friday, Charles Shephard, the actor’s lawyer, called Hoffman “one of the most passionate and principled actors when it came to protecting his name.”
- Crave for stimulation and sexual excitement: Dustin Hoffman has confessed to binge sex in this interview
- Ficus (Fig) Tree: Dustin Hoffman hiding behind a Fig Tree while trying to evade fans!
- Soft Voice: Dustin Hoffman has lent his voice to Shifu, the character in Kung Fu Panda 3. He (Shifu) rarely raises his voice but instead speaks in a soft, low an almost ‘growl’.
- Large inheritance : The movie Rainman tells the story of an abrasive and selfish young wheeler-dealer, Charlie Babbitt (Tom Cruise), who discovers that his estranged father has died and bequeathed all of his multimillion-dollar estate to his other son, Raymond (Dustin Hoffman), an autistic savant, of whose existence Charlie was unaware. Rain Man received overwhelmingly positive reviews, praising Hoffman’s role and the wit and sophistication of the screenplay, and was the highest-grossing film of 1988. The film won four Oscars at the 61st Academy Awards (March 1989), including Best Picture, Best Original Screenplay, Best Director, and Best Actor in a Leading Role for Hoffman.

- Jimmy Connors :
Addictive Personality: “So there was Jimbo, barely surviving an after-midnight first-round match against Pat McEnroe. There was Jimbo, retrieving one more improbable overhead after another against a dazed Paul Haarhuis. There was Jimbo, tweaking the establishment, telling the ump, “You’re an abortion.” There was the swashbuckler, reducing Aaron Krickstein to mush. There was the no-holds-barred, shameless, macho, gladiator/showman charged by the greatest fighting heart in sports, with the toughest crowd (this side of a Philly football stadium) in his fist-pumping grasp.” – Bill Simons
Background:
Jimmy Connors has Mars, the planet for strength, battle, fame, skill in sports, anger, controversy and arguments in its Pushkara Bhaga in 11 degrees (10 deg. 24’) Scorpio. In addition, the 4L of fame and the 6L of victory, Jupiter, is in its Pushkaramsa. Jimmy Connors is the former world No. 1 tennis player, often considered among the greatest in the history of the sport. Connors was notorious for his fiery competitiveness, acrimonious relationships with a number of peers, and boorish behaviour that pandered to the crowd.
Interpretation:
- Desire to have the best share: Connors still holds three prominent Open Era singles records: 109 titles (the only male player to win more than 100 titles), 1532 matches played, and 1254 match wins. His titles include eight majors (five US Opens, two Wimbledon, and one Australian Open), three year-end championships, and 17 Grand Prix Super Series. In 1974 he became the second man in the Open Era to win three majors in a calendar year, and his total career match win rate of 81.9% remains in the top four of the era. He continues having that share!
- Youthful and incredible zest: Larry Schwartz on ESPN.com said about Connors, “His biggest weapons were an indomitable spirit, a two-handed backhand and the best service return in the game. It is difficult to say which was more instrumental in Connors becoming a champion. Though smaller than most of his competitors, Connors didn’t let it bother him, making up for a lack of size with determination.”
- Fierce at times: At eight, he saw his mother and grandparents physically brutalized by two neighbourhood men. With his mother receiving more than 100 stitches and dealing with her injuries for the remainder of her life, Connors was forever scarred. “When I needed something to push me to another level during matches, I would remember that day. Looking back, I can see why I played with so much rage.”
- Self-Praise (Narcissist): In his book “Jimmy Connors Saved My Life” the author Joel Drucker says,” For a time, I believed that I was genuinely close; only to eventually realize that Connors, selfish, narcissistic and paranoid, had no close friends.”
- Matinee Idol type of people: Often calling the 1970’s the “Wild West show”, Connors saw himself as a character. “My job was to make the crowd go crazy. Anything else they got was a bonus, but tennis was always the show that drew people in.”
- Rat like, want people around them: Annicka, a reviewer of the book “Jimmy Connors Saved My Life” says that she observed Jimmy Connors closely. She says, “Jimmy always did appear most comfortable around women, as the author indicates, but in a strictly platonic way. I observed several times that he was indeed not as friendly or close to other men, but what do you expect from a person who is taught to beat other men at all cost and win no matter what.
