Rama and Krishna

By Kshitij Sharma, November 26, 2006

Rama and Krishna are arguably the two most important heroes of Indian mythology.Rama's astrology chart However, little effort has been made to understand the real timelines when they could have walked on this earth, in flesh and blood. I usually do not like to express my political views in this forum, but I

am sorry to note that any attempt to find the truth about these historical figures is always discouraged by the so called secularists who are sitting in the upper echelons of education system in India.

The first chart presented here is the chart of Rama. He was the seventh avatar of Vishnu and was the prince of Ayodhya. His chart has five exalted planets – four of them in Kendras. The fifth planet, Venus, is exalted in the ninth house, which is considered the most important trine. This chart has three of Pancha Mahapurusha Yogas, which I will be talking about shortly. Mercury could not have been exalted along with Sun – it cannot be more than one house away. Mercury’s position is not clear. Mercury may not be in Taurus, it must have been in 9th house itself, along with Venus. Although Pisces is a debilitation sign for Mercury, it is getting a neechabhanga rajayoga by multiple means.

This is quite an extraordinary chart and probably that is the main reason why researchers have not even begun to try putting a date on it. But I think its ridiculous and if we look at dates in vicinity of 7000 BC, I am sure we would definitely find such a planetary combination.

Krishna's astrology chartThree months back, there was an article in Outlook India based on a research paper by Mr Arun Bansal, according to which Krishna was born on July 21, 3228 BC. A link to this article can be found on this Outlook India site. The chart of Sri Krishna comes out to be as shown here. You can read the various interesting interpretations of the chart in the article – the notable one being “You have great fancy for music, moonlight and money”.

Mr Bansal used a software to calculate the date and time of birth based on planetary positions, the other way around for how people use the birth chart calculation software on this website. So could he have used the software on this site? No way !! The software on my site is not that advanced. It would work well in three hundred year range up to 2100 AD. Beyond that, a lot of errors would creep in the exact positions of planets. Planets move around the sun in almost a circular path, which is purely a quadratic equation. However, these planets also exert gravitational influence on each other and thus matters become complicated. The equations in my software are also quadratic, but they make some assumptions and take care of few of these influences. These equations are then of the form longitude = at2 + bt + c, where a, b and c are pre-defined constants for a planet and t represents the Julian day. Due to the underlying assumptions, they would be useless in another hundred years or so.

PostScript as on May 4th 2012: The page on hvk.org is not available. There is an error referred to by 404, which means that the page was not found on the site. Again a travesty… If a site like HVK cannot maintain such data, then what can we say about others.

    Kshitij:

    For Sri Ramachandra’s chart, the issue is ayanamsha correction; that might help shed more light on Mercury’s position. I would have expected Mercury to be conjunct Sun, but not combust, and form a powerful Budha-Aditya yoga in the 10th house. It is an astronomical impossibility for Mercury to be exalted in Virgo and the Sun to be exalted in Aries.

    As for Sri Krishna’s chart, Dr. BV Raman puts his birth date as 19.JUL.3102 BC around midnight, and gives an elaborate footnote (see “Notable Horoscopes”) as to how he arrives at it. If you don’t have it, I’ll be more than glad to scan and send it to you.

    Best wishes,

    S. Anand

  • Comment by Anand Ramachandran Iyer on February 4, 2007 at 9:38 pm

    Hello Anand,

    Your analysis of Sri Rama’s horoscope is correct. Sun & Mercury are conjoint in Aries (Sun Exalted, Budh Adhitya yoga).

    I’m really interested in seeing Sri Krishna’s birth chart… Could you scan & make it available in this site/alternatively send it to me at anandoiyer9@gmail.com

    Thanks a lot.

    Dear sir,
    I saw Lord Krihna’s birth chart in some temple during my tour. There also I found most of the planets exalted similar to that of Lord Rama. However the chart shown above looks very ordinary which cannot be the case. In fact it should be more powerful.Kindly throw some light.
    Regards

    I am inquisitive to know as to how you have derived Lord Ramas horoscope? …….actually about 70% of the above horoscope matches mine…….also i have seen it at another site which shows saturn and ketu in 5th house in Lord Ramas horoscope.

  • Comment by Anantha Krishna K S on March 10, 2008 at 4:45 am

    Horoscope of Lord Sri Krishna is wrong. The five planets in Lord Krishna’s horoscope should be in Mula thrikona.

  • Comment by Anantha Krishna K S on March 10, 2008 at 11:10 am

    Some more updation to my comment sent before. All the nine planets are in Mulathrikona in Krishna’s Birth Chart. That is surya, Chandra (both uccha and mulathrikona), Kuja, Budha, Guru, Shukra, Shani, rahu and ketu are in mulathrikona

  • Comment by Kshitij Sharma on March 26, 2008 at 8:29 pm

    The birth date of Sri Krishna as noted by Dr. B. V. Raman is 19th July 3228 BC, with the positions of planets being exactly same as on this website. In the same article, the date of commencement of Kaliyuga is given as 18th Feb 3102 BC.
    Is it really an ordinary chart? Moon is exalted in Lagna, Mercury exalted in 5th house and Mars is in neecha, but gets Neechabhanga. For details, please see “Notable Horoscopes” by Dr. B. V. Raman.

  • Comment by Anandhavaganan on April 11, 2010 at 4:15 am

    In Lord Ramas life two things needs to be noted
    1) He was kshatriya and was born on rahu Kula (Sun is the family God). He is the expression of ultimate Manhood and firy expression (which gave him the power to control the Brahmastra againt Ravana). He was highly desciplined and devoted(Note Ravana was also devoted to Lord shiva)
    2) He went 14 years of excile in bhuda dhasa (Period of mercury). Mercury is a great tester for Cancer ascendents and it gives meanig to your life by testing you. And Rama was thourougly tested in this period by missing his wife and being alone inspite of being an emperor and going through a war agiant a great demon king ravana.But mercury supported him by giving great friends who are highly devoted. This aspect of friendship to happen , mercury should be in 11th house. And 11th mercury gives a great insight identifying good and bad and take instant decision. Which wasnt the case in Ravana’s chart , he had mercury in Pisces the weakes place for it , thats why he abducted sita devi.

  • Comment by Vishal Sathyan on October 14, 2012 at 8:59 pm

    In 2007, I made a new horoscope, which had slight variations from that made by Soordas in his poem and by B.V. Raman, the astrological giant. Lagna, Sun, Moon and Mercury are in the same positions in our charts. But, the other positions are different.

    In my chart, there are four exalted planets – Moon, Mercury, Saturn and Mars. I have made a change in the concept of Pancha Mahapurusha Yogas. In my concept, the planets Mars, Mercury, Jupiter, Venus and Saturn give the yogas Ruchaka, Bhadra, Hamsa, Malavya and Shasha respectively even if they occupy a friend’s house in a quadrant (kendra). The planetary positions in my chart are shown below:

    Ascendant is Taurus and we can see exalted, but waning Moon here. Sun is situated in Leo, his own house, in the 4th house and Mercury is situated in Virgo, his own house and also exaltation sign, in the 5th house. Venus, the Ascendant Lord is situated and conjunct exalted Saturn in Libra, the 6th house. Also, Jupiter is situated in Scorpio, ruled by his friend, Mars, in the 7th. Mars is situated in Capricorn, his exaltation sign in the 9th. All these form great yogas. I state them later.

  • Comment by Vedic Science Maths on December 17, 2012 at 6:43 am

    Krishna has Vrushab Lagna, Revati Nakshatra, So real name of SON of VaSUDEV is VAaSUDVA,

    Planetary aspects of Rahu Ketu are STUPIDIOUSLY put there , There are No such planetary aspects in Bhagavat puran , Neither rahu – ketu in RAMAYAN for RAMA.

    Rama name was given Vashistha with the reason but that name is not according to Horoscopis KARK Laganam Pushaya Nakshtram.

    No one has studied perfected nor read in detail

    So NEED to correct the horoscopes accordingly asnsaid in Purans and RAMAYAN.and not as some one thinks of about it – an imiginary aspects of planets rahu -ketu.

  • Comment by bob on March 22, 2017 at 11:25 pm

    Both these charts are not accurate. Here’s why…..
    Mercury has to be in the 11th house (WITHOUT A DOUBT), because he had twin kids towards the end of his Mercury period. Most part of Mercury dasha he “voluntarily initiates to let go” several materialistic things like his throne, homeland, even ‘marital bliss’ with his wife. So Mercury has to be 3rd and 12th lord in Taurus. Immediately following comes Ketu dasha where he is immesely sad and distraught about banishing Sita into the forest. Might have even regretted his decision. So, Ketu has to be in the 12th house and 12th from Moon and Jupiter which have to be in the 1st house. Following Ketu dasha comes Venus daha where he is reunited with his kids and he enjoys watching them grow and reach adulthood in a homely and peaceful setting performing his fatherly duties including the famous Ashwamedha Yaga. So, 11th lord and 4th lord has to be Venus and it has to be in the 9th house in Pisces.
    I don’t understand why you all want to put Mercury with Sun. 🙁
    Mars has to be in Capricorn, although exalted, it must be positioned in 6th house where there is Rahu in Sagittarius. This is confirmed by the immense loss of marital happiness with Sita but the incredible number of troops serving him and his unbelievable victory over his enemy Ravana. If Mars does not influence 6th house, then, 6th house will have no connection with 10th house. Meaning, Rama has no command over his servants. This doesn’t make sense. Even with 3rd aspect of Saturn lord of 8th (3rd house from 6th) his servants can’t have acted alone and won the war making sole decisions. They did follow his command every step of the way, atleast most of the time not counting the time they “monkeyed around”. 🙂

    Lord Ramakrisna’s birth chart analysis .Does it have any similarity with Lord Krishna or Lord Rama ‘s birth chart?

  • Comment by Shardul on September 19, 2023 at 12:05 am

    I am intrigued to read the message posted by one of the readers on Lord Krishna’s chart. However, he missed to write in which temple he seen the Lord’s chart? I think on the basis of Lord Krishna’s life events it is possible to organize planetary positions. Firstly, I think Taurus asc natives are very attractive and charming just like the lord himself…secondly , there has to be a role of budh Aditya yoga as the Lord displayed superiority of knowledge, wisdom,, skills and oratory …..he killed his enemies which implies there has to be strong role of 6th house and it’s lord……thus based on the Lord’s life events greater accuracy in planetary placement can be achieved thanks
