Lok Sabha Election 2014: What Future Holds For Murli Manohar Joshi?

Lok Sabha elections dates are already announced i.e. from April 7 to May 12, 2014. Today, we are going to talk about a very renowned BJP leader, Murli Manohar Joshi. He is contesting from Uttar Pradesh constituency. Read what astrologer Acharya Raman has to say about his fate.

The fever of election can be witnessed throughout the nation. This craze among the people is seen right after the Vidhan Sabha Polls. All parties are trying their best to pitch a universally accepted candidate in the desired constituency, so that they can win a seat in Lok Sabha.

Murli Manohar Joshi ji is going to contest on BJP ticket once again from Uttar pradesh. He is a very renowned political Figure of India and holds lots of respect for himself in all parties.

Let us see what his future holds by horary chart. These readings are not to be taken as basis of any decisions but they are just an attempt to foresee the future with the help of KP System astrology and is purely for academic purposes.

Muhurat Chart/ Chart for moment

Date: March 24, 2014
Day: Monday

Time of Chart: 9: 9: 16 GMT+05:30
Place: Bhopal
KP Original Ayanamsa: 23° 57’ 28’’

KP Rule For Winning An Election

If the csl of 6th cusp is a significator of any of 6,10,11 houses then the person will qualify but if that csl signifies cusps 4,5,12 then the opponent wins. If he favors both equally the we have to see the significations of Maha dasha- Antardasha lord.

1. The sixth cuspal sub lord is Sun in 11th house. It is in sub of Venus in 10th house.
2. The 10th cuspal sub lord is Saturn in sub of Sun in 11th house. Saturn is retrograde.
3. The 11th cuspal sub lord is Venus in 10th house and is in sub of Sun in 11th house.
4. At the time of judgement Moon is in 8th bhava in sub of Saturn in 6th bhava.

Saturn is retrograde. Thus Moon at this time is showing problems for him but the horoscope is agreeing. The chart for opponent is weaker than the chart for the ascendant.

His win is highly susceptible. The pratyantar or sub-sub period operating at the time of polls will be of Moon which is negative for the leader but the sub period and main period are not that negative.

Conclusion: His win is very difficult as per the horoscope erected and signals of moon. He will have to make a lot of efforts and adjustments to record a win this time. In the end I think he will be able to record a win.
