Robin Williams' Suicide & Drug (Substance) Abuse: A Vedic Astrology/ Jyotisha Interpretation


This Vedic Astrology/ Jyotisha paper evaluates the Hollywood actor Robin William’s suicide and his proclivities to drug (substance) abuse and we shall also see some of the Rajayogas from his Vedic horoscope which made him the accomplished performer and the celebrity that he was. 
(Birth data- July 21,1951; 1:34 PM; Chicago, Illinois, USA)
The Rāśi Chakra is given below for reference-






 
Robin Williams’ Life Characteristics-
Libra/ Tulā Lagna rises in the Rāśi Chakra and the lord Venus/ Śukra is in the Rāhu-Ketu axis which precipitates a lifestyle deviating from the norms. Rāhu and Ketu tread a path of their own. Ketu can go to extremes as it is headless and the Lagneśa indicates the intelligence of the person. Rationality is not attractive to such a person and he may be apt to go to extremes for a beyond-the-intelligence experience. Rāhu aspects the Lagna Lord  with its 7th Bhāva aspect.

Robin Williams’ Mind-
The Moon/ Cañdra is the significator for the emotional and social participation of the person. It is joined Rāhu in the 5th Bhāva of the Citta or consciousness bringing delusion and experimenting with drugs for a novel experience with consciousness. The mutual aspect between Śukra and Cañdra in the Rāhu-Ketu axis forms a heady Rudra Yoga which makes the feelings spiral out of control. He would have sought illumination from his friends but it would have been a quest destined to meet with failure as he would have been the wise one in that sort of an exchange.
Robin Williams’ Rajayoga-
As for the Rajayoga we can see the Yānavaṅta Yoga formed between the Lābha Sthāna and the 5th House. The Nipuṇa Yoga in the 10th House shows his accomplishments in acting and the overwhelming screen presence with Sūrya in Digbala. It exacted a heavy price though since Sūrya is the Bādhakeśa for this Lagna. 
The real Rajayoga comes from Śani in the 12th Bhāva from the Lagna. This is the key to his real rise in life as it is the malefic Yogakāraka in Dusthāna. The one positive is that this Graha is not joined another and so the damage from his pain did not spill over too greatly on others.
Robin Williams’ Drug Abuse-
These experiences are confirmed from the Arudha Chakra as it is this chart which reflects the events that are actually precipitated in life. The Ārūḍha Lagna is in the 9th Bhāva in this chart in Gemini. It is the 6th Lord of abuse from this sign which is placed in the Lagna and sows the seeds for substance abuse and Mars as a malefic can fulfil this agenda very well.
Śani is the Kāraka for alcoholism and aspects the Ārūḍha Lagna with Graha Driṣṭi/ planetary aspect. The concoction is complete with Rāhu aspecting Maṅgala with Graha Driṣṭi along with Śani. This was a case of very serious drug abuse as virtually all determinants of substance abuse exist in full force.
Robin Williams’ Suicide-
Mode of death is seen from the 3rd Bhāva from the Ārūḍha Lagna. Here we have the headless Ketu showing the breaking of the wind-pipe (symbolic of the cutting off of the head associated with the nodes) and the fact that Śukra is the Lagneśa of the chart shows that this is by his own hand. The fact that this happens in the Bādhaka Sthāna confirms the diabolical nature of the event. 
Having said that the Karma behind it appears to be clear as day.

A BRIEF LOOK AT THE TWELVE LAGNAS/ ASCENDANTS IN VEDIC ASTROLOGY

People are often curious at the beginning of their astrological quest, to know something of the various facets pertaining to their ‘chart’; in other words, they wish to evaluate the basic propensities pertaining to their Lagnas and their Rashi/ Lagna Kundalis (Kundalis). Also, the Chandra Lagna itself and Gochar furnish other popular areas of curiosity. Lagna is the sign rising on the Eastern horizon at the time of birth and is occupied by a Rāśi (Rashi)/ Vedic sign. The average duration of a sign rising in the Lagna/ Ascendant is two hours and for this reason the twelve Rāśis cover the twenty-four hours duration of the solar day. ( Basic Jyotiṣa principles can be accessed by clicking this link ) Lagna imbues a person with individuality and therefore denotes the self and the personality of the person. It is the first house or Bhāva of the chart and is the commencement point of any horoscopic study. We cannot forget that in all the divisional charts as well there is a Lagna/...

Vedic Astrology: The Charakaraka Replacement and Its Impact

At its deepest core Jyotiṣa is at the driving centre of all Karma. Just like life, if properly appreciated as it must, it has the status of a full-scale on-going project of immense magnitude. Karma and Soul : The Lagna and the Bhavas reckoned from the Lagna in the Rāśi Chakra indicate the physical manifestation of life. In the Varga Chakra the Lagna and the Bhāvas indicate the personality and realities of that specific environment. When we speak of Karma we inevitably speak of the soul as it is the soul which must carry and exhaust the Karma through rebirth. Charakāraka - Matters pertaining to the soul are studied and deciphered through the Charakāraka in Vedic Astrology. The Charakāraka are the temporal significators (Naisargika Kāraka) for various matters at the level of the soul and the Karma. The Charakāraka are decided on the basis of longitude of arc traversed by the planets including minutes and seconds of arc, and sometimes fractions of seconds of arc. The Eight Cha...
