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 7^th 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 5^th 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 5^th House. The Nipuṇa Yoga in the 10^th 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 12^th 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 9^th Bhāva in this chart in Gemini. It is the 6^th 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.
