In Hindu Astrology classical texts Moon or Chandrma is called the ‘seed’ of the horoscope. Rashi chart is the tree and Navamsha is its fruits as Maansagari explains the importance of these. In ‘Chandra Yoga Adhayaa’ of Bhriat Parashara Hora Shastra specific importance has been given to the astrological yogas from Moon chart. A bad Chandra Kundali or Moon chart can destroy all the good yogas in Rashi chart is what this chapter of Bhriat Parashara Hora Shastra tells us. In mundane astrology Moon is the significant of ‘public opinion’. If Moon is in bad yogas like Kemadruma or in ‘Paap Kartari’ then a politician struggle a lot in his career. We have seen this in case of Rahul Gandhi of Congress Party and Deve Gowa’s son Kumaraswamy. The horoscope of MNS (Maharashtra Nava Nirman Sena) chief Raj Thackeray is also an example of Kemadruma yoga giving trouble in political career. When Kemadruma yoga is not property get cancel it creates lots of obstacles in career and family life. The presence of Jupiter in Kendra from Moon or the aspect of Moon sign lord on the Moon or the exchange between Moon and its sign lord are the good cancellation of Kemadruma Yoga.

Balance of Dasha in Vimshottari: Moon 2 years 1 months 25 days 

The Vrischik (Scorpio) lagna horoscope of Raj Thackeray tells the story of a checkered career. The lagna lord Mars is in the 8^th house with 8^th lord Mercury and 10^th lord Sun. The lagna and 6^th lord Mars is combust and badly placed in the 8^th house of humiliation. Moon is in ‘Kemadruma Yoga’ as there is no planet on either side of it. A ‘Kemadruma’ Moon is a big weakness in his horoscope. Venus giving aspect to the Janma lagna from the 7^th house gave him creative talent. In Dashamasha Venus and Jupiter are in the ascendant. He is good cartoonist like his uncle late Bal Thackeray and also a aggressive public speaker like him . The Jupiter, Sun, Mars, Mercury and Saturn all aspects his 2^nd house of speech which makes him an excellent orator. He got the maha Dasha of Jupiter in 1995 which run till 2011. During 2006 when he was pasting through Jupiter-Sun he had political dispute with his cousin Uddhav Thackeray. The transiting Saturn was in Leo in the 8^th house from his natal Moon then. He left Shiv Sena and formed his own party Maharashtra Navnirman Sena. Since then he has hardly achieved anything. His party won 13 seats in 2009 and reduce to just 1 seats in 2014 assembly polls. Raj Thackeray is considered to be taking advises from Sharad  Pawar about his political career but it hardly seems to have helped him. In early years of his political career he aggressively opposed the immigration of people into Maharashtra  from UP and Bihar but later his stand got soften up a little bit. Though his politics still revolve around regional ‘Maratha’ pride like his mentor and uncle late Balasaheb Thackeray.

Why Raj Thackeray is an excellent orator ?

Raj Thackeray’s horoscope has a very good Jupiter in the 10th house which as the 2nd and 5th lord give aspect to the 2nd house of speech. Jupiter and Venus in Kendra shows his honest intentions to serve the people of his state. Apart from this Saturn from the 5th house aspect the 2nd house. Mercury, Mars and Sun from the 8th house give their aspects to the 2nd house of speech. At present he is one of the most sharp and logical speaker in Maharashtra  politics  though his political foot prints are low but his speeches always made the presence in main stream media. The Saturn is in the 5th house is with malefic Rahu is one of the reason that despite best of the oratory skills he is not able to convince people to vote in his favor. The 5th house is the house of minister post or political position which is weak in his case.

What is the future of Raj Thackeray ?

Now Raj Thackeray is passing through a ‘Sadhe-Sati’ as Saturn transit from Dhanu is in the 12^th house from his weak Kemadruma Moon. The Vimshottari Dasa of Saturn-Venus has started from May 2018. At the time of assembly polls Saturn-Venus-Rahu will be running from July 2019 to January 2020. He can win few seats but will not make much impact in Maharashtra politics. Venus is in own sign Taurus in Rashi chart but it get the bad aspect of Saturn which is a functional malefic in his Scorpio lagna chart. Venus as the lord of Dashamasha lagan though will put him under limelight. In Chara Dasha he is under Pisces period ( June 2019 to June 2024) which is the sign of his Atamakaraka Saturn showing some troubles from health and court cases in coming years. He will fail to stop Shiv Sena and BJP alliance to win assembly elections in 2019. 

As per Jaimini system the Chara dasha of Pisces is running from June 2019 to June 2026. Pisces has his Atamakaraka Saturn along with Rahu which is bad for health. Mercury, Mars and Sun give aspect to the Pisces sign. Mars is Ganatikaraka and Sun is Darakaraka’s so their aspects on the dasha rashi Pisces are not good. So health need to be taken care of for Raj Thackeray. His political career will be little better in year 2024 during Saturn-Mars dasha in Vimshottari. Mars is in good Veepreet Raja Yoga in his chart. Till then he will have to keep struggling for his party.

The BJP-Shiv Sena relations in the last 5 year was like a teenage love story- they fought 2014 Lok Sabha Elections together in alliance and won handsomely but then broke up after few months. In October  2014 Maharashtra Assembly Elections both BJP and Shiv Sena fought alone but again patched-up to form the government. Then again they fought the civic body and Panchayat elections separately during 2015-2018. Under the leadership of Devendra Fadnavis BJP performed well in these local bodies elections and Shiva Sena was distant second. This made Shiv Sena Chief Uddhav Thackeray realized that now it is time to accept the junior partner role in the alliance with the BJP as he can not survive in the  fight with Congress-NCP alliance if it is a triangular contest. The horoscope of Uddhav Thackeray shows that his party will perform well in the coming assembly elections in Maharashtra in October 2019 but then his relations with the BJP will continue to be sore.

Balance of Dasa in Vimshottari: Venus 11 years 4 months 19 days

In the Virgo  lagna horoscope of Shiv Sena Chief Uddhav Thackeray Mars in the 9^th house of father shows his aggressive political legacy which he inherited from his father late Balasaheb Thackeray. His father was a cartoonist who formed Shiv Sena on 19 June 1966 at 18:00 hours Mumbai when Scorpio sign was rising with Mars in the 7^th house. Uddhav Thackeray is  an ardent writer and photographer who entered into politics in January 2003 during his Rahu-Mercury Dasa in Vimshottari. He had disputes with Narayan Rane and his cousin Raj Thackeray who left the party in 2006. Uddhav’s Moon is in Leo and he was under a ‘Sadhe-Sati’ then which gave him troubles in initial years of his political career. His father Bal Thackeray died on 17 November 2012 when he was under Dasha Chiddra of Rahu-Mars in Vimshottari. Rahu is in the 2^nd house from Sun and Mars as the 8^th lord is placed in the 9^th house of father explains it amply.

Horoscope of Bal Thackeray

Balance of Dasha in Vimshottari- Sun 2 years 3 months and 19 days 

The Makar lagna horoscope given above is of most charismatic leader Maharashtra ever had late Balasaheb Thackeray. One can compare it with the horoscope of current Shiv Sena chief Uddhav Thackeray to astrologically access why  he is not as famous and authoritative as his late father was. Although during the time of Balasaheb Thackeray Shiv Sena could manage to get the Chief Minister post in Maharashtra for only once’s and that too for a very brief period between 1995 to 1999. But Balasaheb Thackeray had great hold over the politics of Maharashtra in 1990’s and early 2000. His scarcest remarks, cartoons and hard-hitting views use to get highest media attention. He was the man of strong character and firm views on Hindutava ideology.  See the strong lagna lord Saturn in the 11th house with Mars in the horoscope of senior Thackeray. Saturn and Mars together in Upachaya Bhava’s (3, 6, 10 and 11) gives one a Kshatriya personality if the lagna and Moon are also strong. In case of late Bal Thackeray’s horoscope this yoga is present. An exalted Moon in the 5th house under technical influence shows his creativity. The 3rd lord lord Jupiter is debliteated in the lagan and Moon sign lord is strong in the 2nd house. He was an excellent cartoonist and majestic  orator. But then Moon getting under the influence of Mars again in Navamsha chart has to made him aggressive and bit fanatic. Now compare his chart with his son’s Uddhav Thackeray were there are mix influences of benefic and malefic planets on the Moon, 2nd house and 5th house in Rashi and Navamsha.

Mr. Bal Thackeray died on 17 November 2012 when he was passing through Mercury-Saturn dasha in Vimshottari. Till the death of Bal Thackeray in 2012 Shiv Sena was the senior partner in its alliance with BJP. Later it had to compromise its position as Modi wave helped BJP to grew stronger at grassroots level  in Maharashtra.

Rise of Uddhav Thackeray in Maharashtra politics 

It was the Dasa of Jupiter-Jupiter in Vimshottari in 2014 in the Virgo langa horoscope of Uddhav Thackeray which gave him good rise. His party did well in Lok Sabha Elections in 2014 winning 18 seats and in assembly polls they also perform decently sharing power with BJP post elections. Jupiter is in own sign Sagittarius in the 4^th house with 5^th lord Saturn and is in mutual aspect with lagna and 10^th lord Mercury. But the 8^th aspect of Mars on the Dasha lord Jupiter explains his party’s spat against their partner BJP.  The Vimshottari Dasha of Jupiter-Mercury from 15 August 2017 to 22 November 2019 is good for Uddhav’s political career. Mercury is Vargottama in own sign Gemini at the 10^th house. It is the lord of Dashamasha lagan and is placed in the 9^th house with Moon in Dashamasha chart. Shiva Sena at present is under its golden period as they have again won 18 seats in Lok Sabha elections this year. They are also likely to do well in the assembly polls in which they will be contesting in alliance with BJP. But post elections troubles over the issue of sharing power will give tensions to Uddhav as the Dasha of Jupiter-Ketu in Vimshottari after November shows. Ketu is in the 6^th house of disputes under the aspect of 11^th lord Moon and 6^th lord Saturn. In Navamasha Jupiter and Ketu both get the aspects of Mars and Saturn. So Uddhav Thackery’s party Shiv Sena may have to content with the post of deputy chief minister after the elections.

Then later Uddhav Thackeray will enter into an enigmatic dasha period of Jupiter-Venus from October 2020 to June 2023. Jupiter and Venus are in bad 6/8 axis in his horoscope. During this dasha period his health may suffer and bit. His relations with the BJP leaders will be at its worst then. The horoscope of Devendra Fadnavis i have discuss earlier also shows these astrological possibilities.

Horoscope of Shiv Sena

19 June 1966, 18:00 hours at Mumbai, Maharashtra  

Balance of Dasha in Vimshottari: Rahu 9 years 0 months 4 days 

In the Scorpio lagna horoscope of Shiv Sena as many as 6 planets give their aspect to the 2nd house of speech. Mars, Saturn, Sun, Moon, Jupiter and Mercury all are giving aspect to the 2nd house. It astrologically explains it that despite having low foot prints in Indian politics this party has very prominent voice which is aggressive in its tone and it gets high media coverage as compare to other regional parties of India. Shiv Sena can never kept it-self quite when it comes to expressing its views on the issues of national importance. Unlike other regional parties Shiv Sena has very strong media presence though its aggressive  spokespersons. A strong 2nd house also shows enormous financial resources this party control because of its power holding in Mumbai Municipal Corporation who’s budget is  bigger than even some of the Indian states. Mumbai is the financial capital of India having corporate offices of almost all the big companies. Shiv Sena is the most popular party in Mumbai since many decades now. But then this party could never be able to come into power at its own in the Maharashtra state as her chart has a major weakness. Notice here the lagna and 6th lord Mars with Rahu in the 7th house of partnership and the bad aspect of Saturn over it. The Shiv Sena is getting hurt by its own alliance partner which is BJP.

It is maha dasha of Mercury (from June 2010 to June 2027) that has given Shiv Sena its golden run as far as poll results are concern. Mercury is the lord of 11th house but being the 8th house it also has to give this party some difficulties. It is Mercury-Mars period (December 2018 to December 2019) is running at present then Mercury-Rahu is to follow which will run till July 2022. Mercury-Rahu period from December 2019 onward will not be comfortable for Shiv Sena. See Rahu is in the 7th house of alliance with lagna nad 6th lord Mars. It get the bad aspect of malefic Saturn. Then in transit the Saturn will be in Makar Rashi which is the 8th house from the natal Moon in Gemini. All these combinations shows violent activities, ill-health of its leaders and disputes with alliance partner BJP at very high level.
