Assuming Jupiter to be a sober planet under the guise of ‘Gurubala’ (good aspect of Jupiter) should not be taken for granted to expect the Moon! Jupiter is universally known as a planet of expansion and whatever it touches, it expands. What if it touches a planet which is highly unfavourable? Is it not that results could be disastrous?

Both Jupiter and Mars own, one fiery sign and one watery sign. Therefore, it is evident it is capable of setting fire and extinguishing fire as well. Synonymous with this, even the prerogative special aspects of these two planets seem to bring in some more significant synergy. Mars has special 4^th and 8^th aspect followed by Jupiter’s 5^th and 9^th aspect. Thus, Jupiter can even be a silent blaster!

Jupiter takes approximately 12 years to cover one round of Zodiac which in Vedic language is termed as ‘Pariyaya’. At the time of 5^th Pariyaya that is the 60^th birth day, traditional Hindus perform a ‘Santhi’ praying for longevity. Taking a leaf from Western Astrology which can be termed as a ‘Pariyaya’, the Ascendant at the time of birth is supposed to cover 30 degrees in one year and thus it comes to the same degree as at birth, every 12 years. The movement of the Ascendant or Lagna is called the Profection Ascendant. Astrologers map the Profection Ascendant to other planets and predict future.

Applying the above thumb rule to the Indian Independence chart, the Profection Ascendant on 15^th August, 2014 will be in the 7^th house for India which is the 8^th sign of the Zodiac. Further, the 8^th and 11^th lord Jupiter now transiting in the 3^rd house aspects this with the 5^th aspect. Generally, any relationship between 5 and 8, pops up sudden unexpected events.

After having stated the impact of Jupiter’s transit in Cancer, on many occasions I have mentioned that India has 5 planets in Cancer. Therefore, please expect expansion of all those planets can offer. The immediate point on hand is – transit Jupiter crosses over natal Moon on July 7 at 1845 hrs IST. I expect that the whole country may be totally disappointed with the Government and public outcry on several points will be loud and clear. In fact, the mind of the people, and hence the Government may be absolutely shattered. Many hidden ‘big lies’ will be exposed to the utter disappointment of people. In fact, we already have enough to talk in the last few weeks.
