John F Kennedy's Sudden Death & The Red Book

By
Saptarishis Astrology

eeping in view the readers who tend to shun away from the cumbersome hassle
of remedial measures suggested by the indian astrologers to eradicate the
occurance of problems detected and suggested in ones horoscope, we must write
this introduction to eradicate the fears of the Red Book. This book is not just a work on
remedial measures but it is a Complete System not entirely diffferent from traditional
astrology except that it has different system of reading the effects of planets in various
houses as well as aspects causing Special Combinations which materialise at specific age
span/times
1
.

The difference lies in
1. Significators of Planets as well as their dieties are slightly different from traidtional
astrology, for e.g Moon in Lal Kitab is the significator for Life Span and Sun is the
significator for Employment in any administration.
2. It has special aspects of planets
3. A special system of Annual/even Daily Progression of Birth Horoscope to determine
effects & therefore events in life.
4. A different system of reading combinations (yogas) for which this article is being
written

Today the Red Book is popularly called as Lal (red) Kitab (book) in India and considered
mainly for its remedial measures and being too Indianish it is chiefly ignored by Vedic
Astrologers in the West. To our reckoning it appears to be an ancient system which
employes the elements of palmistry and fengshui (vastu) as well along with the
horoscope, though this system came into existence in the form of 5 books which have
been produced from 1939 to 1952.

Red Book indicates that the horoscope can be made from the palm print and even the
horoscope of the House you live in can be made via this system and there is a special way
to make the Moon chart quite different from the traditional indian astrology.

There are just a handful of practitioners of the Red Book who truly known the predictive potential of it and use its
techniques to predict job gain to the week, as per experience of our mentor, who has travelled extensively to meet such
practitioners. - SA
K

Red Book also offers many combinations and what is presented below is a one line
technique that has probably escaped the attention of the best enthusiasts of Red Book,
this scribe must make it clear at the very start that he has not read the Red Book and only
while browsing for a minute from a modern day write up of the Red Book by Mr.
R.S.Chillar he got this technique. The testing of the technique has given us so much
pleasure that it must be dedicated to the 1930 born Mr. R.S.Chillar.

Warning
To make a prediction more than 20-30 factors are taken into account whereas an
article is always about one particular factor and this is the mistake even experienced
stalwart astrologers make when they read an article, sit with their students (chelas)
and criticize an article without retrospecting at how many real techniques have
they contributed.
This write up is an experiment on testing the technique on few charts and is not
indicating that this is the technique by which death is to be predicted. Readers will
also find cases where it does not work and if at all you find this combination in
your chart and start worrying about it then pls throw your chart out since astrology
cannot be learnt objectively keeping ones or dear ones chart in view. Above all do
not make the mistake of testing a technique on a non-dead mans chart and if you
test it on a dead mans chart pls find out the real reason of death especially if you
are in India where the real reason of death is not disclosed due to social stigma of
the dead man having died a bad death due to bad karmas he might have committed.
Unfortunately this sound advice no one gives in modern organisations that
conduct courses in astrology.


Technique:

If Moon is placed in the 12H and simultaneously Mars is placed in the 8H in a birth
chart, this combination makes the native accident and injury prone. Such people can
die a sudden death.

Chillar, Sagar Publications.

The above is from his Enlarged Edition and in the earlier edition this verse was on Page
162-163 under the chapter Special Description Of Planets in Twelve Houses.

Chart 1: John F Kennedy Sr Mercilessly Assasinated

ur verse states the condition of Moon being in the 12H and Mars in the 8H and
this is satisfied in the chart of the President of America, Late John F Kennedy
and the combo seems to have given him a sudden death when he was assasinated
and his assasionation has been one of the most mysterious unsolved crimes of
the world till date. Note Moon is the lord of Cancer, the natural 4H of vehicles (he was
in a vehicle when it happened), at the same time Moon is the lord of the 11L of spouse and
children and Mars is 3L of short trips/bullets aspected by the 10
th
aspect of Saturn who is
the significator of death and also is the lord of the 5H of children. Moon sits in the Sign
Leo which is the sign of Seat of Power, he was in office (in power) when he was
assasinated and also Mars has 10L Mercury which denotes he was in office during that
period. Mars is in Aries the sign of the head, he was shot in the head.



Lordships in placements of house indicate the Omen of how events will manifest in real
life. So an astrologer of the by gone eras who would see the chart of JFK would say
when he is travelling (mars 3L) in a vehicle (Moon) along with his Spouse and children
(Saturn + 11L Moon) then death (Moon) via a metallic object (Mars) will happen. The
ones who use progressions (1H-1 year) will see that the 47
th
year was activated (he had
completed 46
th
year and his 47
th
year was on) and thats the 11H of this chart where Saturn
the siginificator of death is sitting activated by Tr Saturn Tr Moon from 5H and Tr Mars
with 3 other planets in the 3H of death. Our combination planet Mars Moon both got
activated in Progressions and Transits.

Recap Of Mr Chillars words
a) Native will be accident and injury prone
b) Native will die a sudden death

Our Observations So Far with additions/clarifications
a) Sudden Death/Bad death/Can be slow death due to disease
b) Mysterious Death
c) Not a normal death
d) Note: Even a heart attack is a sudden death at whatever age

One must remember that in olden days a good death is what was wished for but in
todays age thanks to the chemicals injucted in our body via food and environment added
with stress every 2
nd
person is dying of cancer of some organ, or heart attack, so if this
combo (Moon in 12H Mars in 8H) is present in your chart it means no big deal.

Hence forth we would at times called this Moon in the 12
th
House and Mars in the 8H as
the Combo in the space of this article wherein we would test this verse in some charts.

Condition:
Moon in 12H and Mars in 8H injuries or sudden death or bad death

Theory, Logic & Observations

a) Moon in 12H, the 12H is the house of hospitals/secret enemies and Exit from the
world and the natural 12H sign is Jupiter, the significator of Life Force.
b) Moon is the natural 4
th
house, the sign Cancer where Mars gets debilitated. So note
the connection of Moon and Mars and thus the verse. The natural 4H is the house
of mother, one (1H) cannot be born without the mother (4H). Creation of body
(1H) is dependant on the mother (4H), hence this deep link of Moon Mars,
something that has not been said in earlier works.
c) Mars owns 1H of body and the 8H of death in the natural zodiac, the 8H is also the
house of chronic diseases
d) Moon gets debilitated in Sc which is owned by Mars and Mars gets debilitated in
Moons sign of Cancer, see another supreme link between Moon and Mars.
e) Thus creation (1H-Mars), Mother (4H - Moon) and Death (8H-Mars) all exist in
the circle
f) 8H has one significator which is Saturn and so does 12H has the same significator,
the verse is about moon in 12H and mars in 8H and thus if Saturn forms a link
between this Moon Mars combination then this technique becomes more powerful to deliver.
g) The poisonous part of Saturn is Rahu (something not known to many) and
incidentally Rahu (North Node) is also the significator of the 8H where this Mars
(from point of view of verse) is to be located. 8H is the house of sudden
events/darkness/surrender/worst troubles/death/sex diseases/scandals and for all
these scandals Rahu is the significator. So note if Rahu forms a link with the Moon
Mars combo it will play a role in giving unnatural death.
h) In the schemes of periods (dasas) you would often find these signs
Pisces/Sc/Cn/Ta getting highlighed and the planets Saturn and Rahu cannot be
forgotten while judging the power of this 12H Moon and 8H Mars to give sudden
death.
i) Remember writing an article in astrology is like writing an article on one part of
the body but for that one part to function and give results, every other part or some
major parts of the body like brain and heart must come into play everytime. A
writer only writes about the kidney and not brain and heart since it is an
understood thing but when the same writer wants to criticise he conveniently
forgets the brain and heart functions/roleplays.

All charts taken from ADB www.astrodatabank.com with AA or AAA ratings on the
accuracy of their time of birth and dates are in the American dating format. God bless
Late Lois Rodden and her team for their contribution of ADB to astrology, Indian
astrologers should thank this lady who has done that work which no Indian astrologer
has been able to do inspite of having numerous data. Lois Rodden is the Messiah of
Modern Astrology.

Chart 2: Haston, Dougal - Avalanche Death

Condition Satisfied: Moon in 12H and Mars in 8H, satisfies the condition laid out in our
verse as stated in the Red Book. ADB states :-

Scottish minor actor, writer and mountaineer. He was Clint Eastwood's understudy in "The Eiger
Sanction" and is the author of an autobiography. Haston was killed in an avalanche while skiing in
Leysin, Switzerland 1/17/1977. (17th Jan 1977).




Progression Method
Sage Bhrighu Circular System
He Died in the 37th year which is the 1H as per BCP and the Lagna signifies body
and its lord Venus is in the 8H of death with Mars who is a perfect death giver for
Libra lagna being 2L and 7L and placed in the 8H of death.
One thing to note is that the dispositor of A8 Saturn was in Tr in the sign of Moon
in 10h and retrograde so it will effect the 8H of downfall/death
2
.

Chart 3: Brown, Dawn Shot Dead



2
This particular method of using reverse aspect of retrograde planets is of Late Bepin Bihari, who wrote about it in
1977 or 1979 Sept Astrological Magazine issue, a novel technique that todays elderly professional astrologers in India
use it but do not talk about it, will produce an article on it later.

Condition Satisfied: Moon in 12H and Mars in 8H, satisfies the condition laid out in our
verse as stated in the Red Book. Before you read further note that this Moon is the 3L of
siblings and now read the story which ADB states :-

American homicide victim shot to death by Tony Diaz on 7/10/1993 (10th July 93) by mistake, as
he mistook her for her sister Kim. Kim had an affair with Diaz in 1991 that waned in 1992. He
was enraged and depressed at the loss of Kim, and had begun to plan her execution. Engaged to be
married, Kim returned to Quincy for a bridal shower. On the night of 7/10/1993, Dawn, her
boyfriend and a nephew went out for ice cream. When they parked near a Dunkin' Donut shop,
Diaz called out "Kim," thinking that Dawn was her sister. When Dawn turned, he shot her in the
face. Diaz was not tracked down until 3/22/1996, when he was found in Guyana, South America.
He was extradited to the U.S., where, a year later, he was convicted of first degree murder.

Chart 4: Curley, Jeffrey Gasoline rag stuffed down the throat.



Condition Satisfied: Moon in 12H and Mars in 8H, satisfies the condition laid out in our
verse as stated in the Red Book. Before you read further note that this Moons dispositor is
Venus sitting in the sign of Taurus (throat) and Mars is in Gemini which rules lungs (blocking
air in lungs), also Mars is in the 8H of sex and Moon in the 12H of bed pleasures, Mars is with
Mer the 11L of older brother, now read the story which ADB states :-

American homicide, a boy killed by sexual predators at the age of ten. A friendly engaging child,
he was accustomed to the company of his older brother as play mates. On 10/01/1997 (1st Oct
1997) around 3:30 PM, he was lured into a car by Charles Jaynes and Salvatore Sicari with the
promise of a new bike, and abducted. When the boy struggled, resisting the attempt to sodomize
him, Jaynes killed him with a gasoline-soaked rag stuffed down his throat. He then sodomized
Jeffrey and the two men put the body in a large trash-can and dumped it into a Maine river.
Following the arrest of the two men, Jeffrey's father, Robert Curley, became a passionate advocate
of the death penalty and had the procedure reinstated in Massachusetts.

In this sad case you can see that Moon is in the 12H and Mars is in the 8H satisfying the
combination stated and Mars is in the 8H of sex and the death occured due to resistance
to sex. Note the pecular combo of Saturn retro in the 1H of body and Saturn is the 3L of
rape, the young boy was raped and killed.


Chart 5: Model, Walther - Nazi Field Marshal who Shot himself




Condition Satisfied: Moon in 12H and Mars in 8H, satisfies the condition laid out in our
verse as stated in the Red Book. Before you read further note that this Venus is the 3L of
sucide sitting in the house of Mars, one of the combinatons in our verse and now read the story
which ADB states :-

German military man, a General Field Marshal who was one of Hitler's favorite commanders. He
shot himself in the ruins of the Ruhr on 4/21/1945 (21st April 1945) to avoid being taken prisoner
by the Allies.




Chart 6: Heitz, Michael Fiery Car Crash



Condition Satisfied: Moon in 12H and Mars in 8H, satisfies the condition laid out in our
verse as stated in the Red Book. Before you read further note that this Mars is the 4L of
vehicles sitting in 8H of death, actually the correct way to write this is see the planet in the 8H, it
is Mars the 4L of vehicles and 4L of friends
3
and Rahu (alcohol) is placed there in 8H, so these
people/situations would be the Omen when death occures, now read the story which ADB
states :-

American accident victim, he and his friend Patrick Murphy, died at about 8:30 PM on January 9,
2004 in a fiery car crash on Route 128 in Manchester, MA when a drunk driver, speeding on the
wrong side of the highway, collided into the car in which Heitz was the front seat passenger and
Murphy was driving. Heitz wanted to be an auto mechanic and was going to pick up some auto
parts for a friends car that he had been repairing. He died just five days shy of his 17th birthday.

Note Mars is in 8H with significator of drinking Rahu (North Node) and Mars is also
the significator of 6H of accidents

Transits: We have not taken transits into account so far other wise the article becomes
big, yet note in this case that on Jan 9th 2004, Tr Mars was exactly in the 8H effecting
natal Mars and Tr Saturn the significator of longevity and death was in Gemini
aspecting this natal Mars of our Yoga, thereby activating the sudden/bad death yoga.

For Vedic Astrologers - 11H is ones network of contacts whom we term to believe as being friends, real friends are
close to heart (4H) and reside in our heart - SA
Chart 7: Eberhardt, Isabelle Mysterious Death Roddens AA rating

ADB gives as 24 Aries Asc but ZET Lite is giving it as 15 Aries Asc




Condition Satisfied: Moon in 12H and Mars in 8H, satisfies the condition laid out in our
verse as stated in the Red Book. Before you read further note that this Mars is the Asc Lord
(body) in the 8H of death and mystery and change in the sign of Sc a mysterious sign, Mars is one
of the combinatons in our verse and now read the story which ADB states :-

Swiss aristocratic, the illegitimate daughter of Nathalie Charlotte Dorothee Eberhardt who was a
woman of private means from Moscow. With an unhappy childhood, she ran away to Algeria
where she became a Moslem. Masquerading as an Arab man, she spent time as a dock worker and
entered worlds that would never have been accessible to a woman. Rebellious, she was a sensation
seeker, addicted to alcohol and opium (Neptune in Asc) and inclined to as many affairs as she
chose, with one marriage. On 10/21/1904, (21st Oct 1904) she was mysteriously found dead in the
desert of Ain Sefra, apparently a murder victim.

An interesting thing is if one takes the date of death as accurate then on that date, the Tr
Moon was on her natal Moon & Tr Mars was aspecting natal Mars and natal Moon

Transits: An interesting thing is if one takes the date of death as accurate then on that
date, the Tr Moon was on her natal Moon & Tr Mars was aspecting natal Mars and natal
Moon


Chart 8: Jouret Luc Mass Murders

Condition Satisfied: Moon in 12H and Mars in 8H, satisfies the condition laid out in our
verse as stated in the Red Book. Note Mars is the ruler of the 5
th
of followers placed in the
8H of death along with significator of death Saturn and the 8L is Moon placed in the 12H
of exit, both planets Mars and Moon in our combo are covered, now read what ADB
states :-



Belgian-Canadian cultist, born in Zaire, the charismatic leader of the Solar Temple
Order. He was held responsible for the violent death, a mass murder of collective suicide, of 53 of
his following, 48 in Switzerland and 5 in Canada, on 10/04/1994. (4th Oct 1994). A
handsome physician, he worked with a colleague, Joseph di Mambro, 69, a French-
Canadian known as "the dictator," the financial mastermind of the cult. Believed to be
about ten years old, the Order had an estimated 300 members to whom they preached a
hodgepodge of Catholic conservationism and apocalypse. On 1/05/1994, police found
what was first considered to be a mass cult suicide in Switzerland, 23 bodies in the half
burned out ruins of a farm in Cheiry, 45 miles north-east of Geneva. Another 25 bodies
were uncovered in three chalets at Granges-sur-Salvan in the Swiss alps and five more in
a villa in Morin Heights, Canada, about 50 miles north-west of Montreal. It was soon
found to be mass murder, not suicides. Three of the Quebec victims, including a three-
month-old baby, were stabbed to death. Those in Switzerland had been shot, suffocated
with plastic bags over their heads or burned to death. The fires had been set off with
timers. On October 13th, Jouret's and Mambro's bodies were found. Jouret had died in
Granges the evening of 10/04/1994. It was believed that rising tensions between the two
men over cult control and over vast sums of money invested in properties may have been
the motive.

Chart 9: Baudelaire, Charles - Slow Death of Syphilis
4





Condition Satisfied: Moon in 12H and Mars in 8H, satisfies the condition laid out in our
verse as stated in the Red Book. ADB states :-

French poet tormented by religion and the struggle between good and evil in man, suffused with his
deeply Catholic sense of sin and remorse. He was a Catholic and a Satanist, a debauchee and
mystic, cynical sensualist and yearner for purity. Sexually morbid and a sadist, he sought the
unbathed women "of the streets." He changed his address in Paris about 30 times during his adult
life, once moving six times in a single month in 1885, seeking to evade creditors. (4L of home is in
8H of changes and is with 5 planets, when so many planets in 8H of change, native keeps on
changing his views often or here views plus home).

He collapsed in March 1866 while admiring an architectural point of beauty with friends in
Belgian. He returned to Paris in a private railroad car some months later and over the next 12
months suffered a slow death from syphilis (GPI).
By early 1867 he scarcely remembered his own name; by April he had lost his will to live and on
8/31/1867 (31st Aug 1867), he died in his mother's arms in Paris. (refer to one of our previous
articles in Vol 8 in the Thy Experiments with Truth series - one on how death will happen and
then also see, that the 8L of death in natal chart Jup is in the 4H of Mother in the 9th Harmonic
(D-9), and then see the peotry by which he died in his mothers arms)

Syphilis is a sexually transmitted infection caused by the spirochete bacteria Treponema pallidum subspecies
pallidum. The primary route of transmission is through sexual contact however it may also be transmitted from mother
to fetus during pregnancy or at birth resulting in congenital syphilis.
Chart 10: Suicide Case 10707
Asc Sc 13



Condition Satisfied: Moon in 12H and Mars in 8H, Moon is with 5L of mind and
emotions, thus emotions can become the Omen during death, ADB states that American
suicide case by jumping who died on 25th Mar 1969 - 3/25/1969, 21:30, Queens, NY.


Brief & Border Line Cases

Astrology is always in a context of the country, verses are made by astrologers of
yesteryears and they belong to a country and period and their meanings have to be
interpretated in that context. In olden days death during sleep was considered the best
and most desired, so it is now but now a heart attack death or kidney failure death is
common. Some of the cases below would be of what one can call border line cases.

Chart 11: Rossetti, D.G kidney failure & neuralgia

Condition Satisfied: Moon in the 12H and Mars in the 8H, ADB states :-

British artist, a painter and poet, and a member of a noted family, one of the founders of the Pre-
Raphaelite Brotherhood. In 1872, he suffered a mental breakdown with hallucinations and was
taken to Scotland. There he attempted suicide but later recovered enough to resume his painting.
He became increasingly more reclusive, filled with bitterness from the attack on his poetry, and he
suffered from neuralgia, a disease that caused him much pain. He died of kidney failure on
4/09/1882, Birchington-on-Sea, England.



Chart 12: Bremont, Marie 115 year old

ADB states French longevity; a woman who lived to be 115 years old when she died on
6/06/2001. - Note: one software Jhora gives Moon in Cp the 1H, but Kala and ADB
gives Moon in 12H in Sg. What does one do in such a case. Longevity is not the issue but
how the death happened, thats the focus of this article and here we do not have the
relevant information on it.





Chart 13: Toulouse-Lautrec - Paralysis



Moon in the 12H and Mars in the 8H, aspecting with its 8
th
aspect Venus who is the Asc
lord signifying body, Moon in the sign of Virgo, the sign of accidents of the natural zodiac.
ADB states :-

French artist and painter whose great influence on Post-impressionist French art came after his
death. Physically deformed by accidents that broke both of his thighs in adolescence, he abandoned
his aristocratic upbringing and immersed himself in the bohemian entertainment of the 1890s,
providing vivid portrayals of prostitutes and other performers and audiences of the Parisian
entertainment spots of that era, including the Moulin Rouge. The only surviving child of an
eccentric count and his shy wife, Henri Toulouse-Lautrec slipped on a polished floor on 5/30/1878
and broke his left thigh. In August 1879, he stumbled into a ditch and broke his right thigh. The
accidents left him crippled for life, and his growth was frozen at 51". Despite the deformity,
Toulouse-Lautrecs charisma and wit allowed him to fit in well with Parisian counterculture of his
time during the 1880s and 1890s. His life of working all day, drinking all evening, and nightly
indulgences (he was also syphilitic) eventually took its toll. He began to deteriorate from
alcoholism, and on 3/17/1899, he was sent to a private mental home with delirium tremors, but
within months of his release was drinking heavily again. He had a slight stroke in February 1901.
He was struck down with paralysis on 8/20/1901, and died at 2:15 AM on 9/09/1901.

Conclusion
strodatabank in total gives 45 charts with Moon in the 12H and Mars in the 8H,
in most of the cases the cause of death is not mentioned. We have presented 15
charts and there were other 4 charts of heart attacks. The other charts where
cause of death is not mentioned could also be of natives who died a peaceful death and
due to lack of more data this technique cannot be called a thumb rule but surely worth
exploring more and keeping it in mind for further research. If you have charts with same
combination and know how the death took place then do kindly post the data and event
to the Guest Book section of Saptarishis Astrology.
