OF NATAL JUPITER
Jupiter is the greatest benefic,
In the Astrological hierarchy
He is so voluminous that,
1300 earths can be fit into him.
The ancient Eternians,
Called him Dyo Pitah,
DYo means Heavens, Pitha is father,
The Father of the Heavens !
Marlowe called him the Monarch of the sky,
Lord and Commander of Elements,
HE is the King Maker,
He is powerful in charts of Rulers !
Handsomest in Greek,
And Master Guru in Indian,
If he be benign, everything becomes benign,
And if he be malign, everything, malgn !
Bewitched by his beauty,
Marlowe extolled Jupiter,
"Brighter art thou than flaming Jupiter,
Ere he appeared before hapless Semele"
He is of noble intellect,
And of the nature of Kapha
Kaphatmaka Sreshta mathi Suredya
SImhabda Nadascha Vasu pradhana.
If he retrogrades,
Will confer royal power,
In the horoscope of Indira Gandhiji,
He is Vakra Vargottama !
He is angular,
In charts of British Sovereigns,
He is either rising,
Or culminating, in 1 or 10.
Jove is derived from Jyok,
Jeeve Angirah Vachaspati Jyok,
The phrase By Jove is derived from him,
From mighty Astrology.
The genius of Varaha MIhira,
In his treatise Brihat Hora Sastra,
Summed up the Effects of Jove Natal,
In four simple lines of poem.
Vidwan Suvakya Kripana Sukhee cha
Dheeman Asatru Pitrukodhikascha
Neechas tapaswi sadhana sa labha,
Khalascha Jeeve Kramaso Vilagnath.
In the First, a Scholar extraordinaire,
In the Second, with the gift of the gab,
In the Third, money loving, miserly,
In the Fourth an enjoyer of sense.
In the FIfth, a great intellect,
In the Sixth, devoid of enemies.
In he Seventh, surpasses father,
In the Eighth, immoral & wealthy.
In the 9th, a divine,
In the 10th, with Wealth,
In the 11th, with great gains,
And in the 12th, wicked man !
