JIDDU KISHNAMURTI was born shortly after midnight, at 12:30 a.m. on May 12, 1895 (May 11 by the Indian calendar) in the small hill town of Madanapalle, about a hundred and fifty miles north of Madras. That was when the assisting midwife called to the waiting father, "Sirsodayam!", meaning the head is visible. According to Indian tradition, that is the precise moment of birth. The following day Kumara Shrowthulu, a noted astrologer in the area, cast the child's horoscope and predicted he would be a great teacher but only after contending with mountainous obstacles. The boy's father, Narayaniah, later gave copies of the original horoscope in Sanskrit and English to the astrologer S. E. Sutcliffe. It was published in The Theosophist of April 1932.

Three planets are above the earth, the w, i and u , with the w and u separated by 52º 44', a septile. The w/u midpoint at 29º00' x is just 2' from the Midheaven and 6' from opposing e . The remaining planets are also contained within a septile. They are below the earth, between the q and t , which are 51º 01' apart. And the q is exactly, 2' orb, square the Ascendant. The septile above the horizon centers precisely at the MC, and the one below the earth is tied firmly to the rising degree. Both involve a light and a malefic: the greater light with the lesser malefic below the earth, the lesser light with the greater malefic above the earth.

Each light also has a close opposition ( q S i and w S r ), while each of the malefics is involved in a trine ( u F y , t F i ).
q D Ascendant and w/u A MC, both exact, set the unique time and place for this birth, the coincident placements provide us with the clues to what this horoscope may symbolize.

What does all wonderful, unique symmetry mean? Well, the expert astrologers of the Theosophical Society, and this doubtless included Alan Leo, were convinced it was the chart of the new Messiah. The young Krishna was to be the vehicle of the Christ for His Second Coming.

e so close to the IC and the q at the cusp of the equal-house 4 th , had to have been the deciding factors in this interpretation. In esoteric circles (in the early years of this century some of the world's best astrologers were members of the now-defunct Esoteric Section of the Theosophical Society) the q represents God and e symbolizes the Son of God. Here both the q and e are placed at the very root of the chart, the divine messenger and the source of the message are at the 4 th cusp, the horoscopic point that denotes the Father.

KRISHNAMURTI was an eighth child ( r ruler of the 3 rd is A y in the 5 th , both strong) of a orthodox Brahmin family. The cowherd god Krishna was himself an eighth child, and the baby was named in his honor (Krishnamurti means Krishna incarnate). Jiddu was the family name. As the baby grew to boyhood Kumara Shrowthulu's prediction that he would be a great teacher seemed most unlikely; the boy was empty, dreamy and apparently dim-witted. It was his younger brother, the ninth born into the family, Nityananda, who was the lively and intelligent child ( r ruler of 3 rd is in mutual reception with e ). It was Nityananda who gently led Krishnamurti home when he would be found standing by the roadside lost in dreams (draconic o S w).

As young Krishna matured he was sickly ( q D ASC, the q is extremely weak–cadent, peregrine, slow in motion, A Algol) and at age two barely survived an attack of malaria. Because of frequent fevers and bleeding from the nose and mouth ( t , weak in f , is septile q ) he often missed school, once for as long as a year.

The boy was deeply attached to his mother (ruler of 10 th in 4 th , w S r ). She died in December 1905 when he was ten years old ( q to q/p , MC A w/u ) and he was left bewildered and bereft (draconic o S w ).

His father (signified by both r , ruler of the 4 th , and u , nocturnal chart) on retiring from government employment took his sons to live in the theosophical compound in Adyar, Madras. There Krishnamurti was seen by Bishop Leadbeater, one of the leaders of the TS, who was particular struck by the size and purity of his aura (exalted y is A r, q G t ), a nimbus so radiant that he proclaimed it the most wonderful he had seen. He decided the boy had latent talents ( e at IC, MR r ) that could be developed to make him a great spiritual Teacher ( y ruler of 11 th is exalted in f ). Mrs. Besant, the president of the TS, who arrived in India on November 27, 1909 to see the discovery, agreed. When Krishnamurti refused to leave India for training unless Nityananda went along too ( q rules 7 th from the 3 rd , his brother was his partner), Mrs. Besant persuaded the father to hand over guardianship of the two boys to her ( r , ruler of 4 th , S w in c & A y ).

In 1911 Mrs. Besant took the boys with her to England ( i , the ASC ruler, is in the 9 th S q ; w in c ), and announced publicly the nature of the spiritual greatness latent in Krishnamurti. Thousands of Theosophists all over the world ( w in c in 11 th ) accepted her proclamation and branded themselves together into an organization called "The Order of the Star in the East" to prepare the way for Krishnamurti in the work he was expected to do when he reached manhood.

At the same time, Krishnamurti's father, was stirred to hostility against Mrs. Besant by his orthodox Brahmin friends (the rumor that Leadbeater was a pederast was part of this), and demanded the two boys should be returned to him ( u retrograde, r S w ). As the boys were deeply attached to Mrs. Besant, and were averse to returning to their father and losing the comforts ( q in s, s at IC) of their new life, Mrs. Besant was able to refuse to send them back. Thereupon the father brought an action against her (both r and y, F u , are S w ) to cancel the agreement ( u retrograde ) by which he had handed over the care of the boys to her. The Indian judge ( i , ruler of 10 th from 4 th ) who tried the case decided in favor of the father ( i and u in the same house and sign, separating), but made the boys wards of court. The boys were however living in England, outside the jurisdiction of the Indian court, and Mrs. Besant used her considerable influence to have the highest court, the Privy Council in London ( w rules 10 th from 9 th ), change the ruling to one in her favor. The boys stayed with her.

The boys were educated privately in England. In 1922 they moved to California, where it was hoped the climate would benefit Nityananda's tuberculosis (a weak q in the 3 rd ). In 1925 Nityananda died ( u S 3 rd cusp). This sorrowful event proved to be a turning point in Krishnamurti's spiritual life.

WHAT MRS. BESANT and Leadbeater had actually announced was that Krishnamurti had been selected as a vehicle or agent ( e A IC) for the manifestation of a great spiritual being ( e MR r ) which, according to theosophical terminology, they called Lord Maitreya, or the Christ. In order to understand such a statement one must realize that C. W. Leadbeater, who claimed to possess unusual clairvoyant powers, had a large and increasing influence over Annie Besant. Certain ideas, quite foreign to the early theosophy taught by its founders Helena Blavatsky and Colonel Olcott, had spread among theosophists. An increasingly strong religious and devotional atmosphere had slowly pervaded the Society, and the announcement by Annie Besant that Krishnamurti was to become the mouthpiece ( e MR r and r A an exalted y ) for the "World Teacher" came as the climax of this religious sentiment.

According to many Gnostic schools of the early centuries, Jesus, the man, was only the mouthpiece or "vehicle" for the manifestation of a transcendent, cosmic entity: the Christ. It is believed that a great spiritual Intelligence can overshadow or temporarily take possession of the body of a disciple. This concept is as old as the hills. In one sense, such an occurrence is nothing more than a form of permanent mediumship, but there is a higher sense that implies a more fundamental and particularly more conscious identification of the spiritual being and the human involved. It was in this higher sense that Mrs. Besant had made her announcement.

Membership in The Order of the Star of the East increased steadily through the years. The movement became one of international scope and significance, with branches in almost every country in the world ( w c in 11 th ), gathering people of influence ( y , ruler of 11 th , is in f , the sign of his exaltation), many of whom were not members of the Theosophical Society. Throughout the decade immediately following the 1914-1918 World War there was a growing sense of hushed and vibrant expectancy.

All the while, Krishnamurti was growing to maturity, following a path carefully outlined for him by Leadbeater, Besant and others of the Esoteric Section of the TS. He wrote an article now and then for the magazine of the Order, he spoke here and there before groups of expectant listeners, but there was no great message. He was a lovely, beautiful, frail youth, adored ( r A y ) by thousands wherever he went.

The death of his brother shocked him awake (draconic e A p ). Leadbeater had told him Nityananda was to be one of his most prominent disciples when His work really began. Yet Nityananda died.

On August 3, 1929, Krishnamurti dissolved the "Order of the Star," gave up all the possessions that had been showered upon him, and renounced his messianic throne ( i S q ). In his talk that day, he explained that ...Truth, being limitless, unconditioned, unapproachable by any path whatsoever, cannot be organized; nor should any organization be formed to lead or to coerce people along any particular path. If you first understand that, then you will see how impossible it is to organize a belief (both u & i retrograde in the 9 th ). A belief is purely an individual matter, and you cannot and must not organize it. If you do, it becomes dead, crystallized; it becomes a creed, a sect, a religion, to be imposed on others...

From that time on until his death in 1986, Krishnamurti traveled constantly, lecturing in many countries, wherever he was invited ( w in c MR y in f ). He no longer had any possessions ( o rules the 2 nd S the draconic w ). His expenses were initially met by gifts from those wishing to hear him speak, and later from the sale of books containing the texts of his talks. He grew from being someone completely under the influence of others ( o D l , draconic w S o ) to become a man who discovered how to think and act as an individual (Ruler of ASC in 9 th , e A IC). Many of those who knew him during these years, and they come from all walks of life ( w c in 11 th ), agree that he became someone very special–perhaps even the enlightened, inspirational teacher Mrs. Besant and the others had believed him to be.

The novelist Henry Miller expressed it as follows: ...[His] language is naked ( s on 3 rd cusp), revelatory and inspiring (draconic i S e ). It pierces the clouds of philosophy ( i in 9 th in x ) which confound our thought and restores the springs of action. It levels the tottering superstructures of the verbal gymnasts and clears the grounds of rubbish (draconic e A p, x on MC). Instead of an obstacle race of a rat trap, it makes of daily life a joyous pursuit... His career, unique in the history of spiritual leaders, reminds one of the famous Gilgamesh epic.

Hailed in his youth as the coming Savior, Krishnamurti renounced the role ( q S i) that was prepared for him, spurned all disciples, rejected all mentors and preceptors. He initiated no new faith or dogma, questioned everything ( i & u in 9 th ), cultivated doubt (especially in moments of exaltation), and, by dint of heroic struggle and perseverance ( q in s ), freed himself of illusion and enchantment of pride (a weak q, S i ), vanity, and every subtle form of dominion over others. He went to the very source of life sustenance and inspiration (draconic e A p ). To resist the wiles and snares of those who sought to enslave and exploit him (draconic o S w ) demanded eternal vigilance ( t A y ). He liberated his soul, so to say, from the underworld and the overworld (draconic MC S p ), thus opening to it ‘the paradise of heroes"... I know of no man whose thought is more inspiring ( i in 9 th , draconic i S e) [2].

William Quinn, co-founder of the Esalen Institute said: [He] was ingenuous and naïve, and suggestible to manipulation by others (draconic o S w ). He had a very childlike quality ( e exactly on an angle). But this had its limits, and in fundamental matters he was immovable ( u in 9 th )... You could say that the idea he was to be the World Teacher was an extraordinary manipulation. He was force-fed (draconic o S w ) in his youth with theosophical doctrine, like those geese who generate pâté de fois gras. The miracle is that he came out of it, and paradoxically became the world teacher.[3]

THE HOUSE position of the ascendant ruler often indicates the native's main activities in life. Here both u and i , the co-rulers of the b Ascendant, are in the 9 th , the area of the horoscope that relates to foreign travel, education, publications, religion and philosophy. Year after year Krishnamurti constantly traveled from continent to continent; he founded schools in India, England and California; and stood firmly against all forms of spiritual bondage, including organized religion and the mental juggling of philosophy. His talks have been extensively published. Both planets are retrograde in x .

u in the 9 th indicates someone who is a doubter, who is turned against ritualized thinking. He is an agnostic, irreligious person. Krishnamurti refused to be bound by the religious psychology of the past.

...religions are the frozen thoughts of men out of which they build
temples and churches. Religions are systematized forms of thought, but
as thought itself is life you cannot bind it. Because you are hindering life
by codes, by sets of belief, by creeds, by religions, there is confusion,
conflict and sorrow. Life is free, and if you try to bind life by religion,
which is a systematized form of thought, you will kill life.[4]

The practical s q in the 3 rd , the house of concrete intelligence and the immediate environment, is S i . While i acting on the q will have been a cause of the constant traveling, the q acting on i will have brought the focus of his life to what was closest to hand. The q in the 3 rd emphasizes life immediately experienced in the here and now, it relates to the audiences that he addressed wherever he went, by contrast to the remoteness of 9 th house religions or escapes into abstraction.

His mother, who died young, is signified by the w . By its house position, the w also refers to Annie Besant, who became a substitute mother, and to all the other Theosophists. Friends, especially women friends, had a claim upon him; idealistic groups demanded his presence. The w is in c in the 11 th , in mutual reception to y in f in the 5 th , and in simplistic terms that describes the deep-felt hope members of a world-wide organization held that Krishnamurti would be the new World Teacher. The c w symbolizes Besant herself, who took K overseas, educated him and prepared him for the role she and Leadbeater had decided was so right for him.

The w 's house position often shows where the native's main interest lies, where his thoughts are set. Here the w is in the 11 th house in c . He was an idealist, greatly concerned with the problems of others, an enthusiastically public-spirited man who needed to communicate his ideas to others.

w S r –grace and charm, many admirers. The opposition is from the 11 th to the 5 th . It shows Krishnamurti's popularity and the many females, both within the TS and outside it, who were devoted to him. Specifically, the aspect refers to his relationship with Annie Besant, who took him away from India and educated him in preparation for his Messiah role. By the w 's mutual reception with legalistic y , the same w S r is also connected to the court battle between the father and Mrs. Besant for guardianship of the two boys.

u signifies his father. Jiddu Narianiah, a graduate of Madras University, was the Tashildar (rent collector–u in x ) and District Magistrate in charge of 800 square miles containing 160 villages. The family was not poor, by Indian standards. Though an orthodox Brahmin (a member of the highest Hindu caste), he had been a member of the Theosophical Society since 1881. Following his wife's death and his own retirement on half-pay ( u is weak in the chart), Narianiah wrote to Mrs. Besant offering his "whole-hearted and full time service" in any capacity in exchange for free accommodation for himself and his sons in the compound of the international Headquarters of the Theosophical Society. Although turned down three times, he persisted in his request. Finally, on January 23, 1909 with four sons and a nephew, he moved into a dilapidated cottage with no indoor sanitation on the 260-acre TS estate on the south side of the wide Adyar river, just south of Madras.

Krishnamurti never married. The ruler of his 7 th is the q in the 3 rd house—his brother was his partner. The q is one of two extremely weak planets in this chart (the other is u ). It is cadent, slow, peregrine and close to Algol. Theosophical astrologers may have taken this to confirm that here was the horoscope of a vehicle, someone destined to be possessed by a higher being; not a self-directed individual. The weakness of the q relates to the frail health of K's brother, who died so young.

For those who use the fixed stars, the following are closely aspected in Krishnamurti's horoscope: e A Alcyone, t A Sirius, y A Mirzam, i A the Northern Scale, o A Rigel, and r A Betelgeuse. Given the involvement of the theosophical astrologers in the planning of his training, it is not so surprising that when Krishnamurti wrote his first book, doing so under the guidance of Leadbeater, it appeared under the pseudonym of Alcyone, the central star of the Pleiades, which was closely A e at his birth.

IN DESCRIBING something of Krishnamurti's life references have been made to aspects involving draconic positions. In the usual horoscope, we commence the zodiac from 0º a . This is the q 's apparent location at the Vernal Equinox, at which time it is observed, geo-centrically, to have 0º declination. The q then is apparently moving from south to north of the equator. It has just left a southern declination and is moving to a northern one. The equinox represents the point where the ecliptic, the q 's apparent path in the sky, crosses the equator. 0º a can also be called the q 's North Node, for the w 's North Node similarly reprepresents the point in the w 's orbit where it crosses the ecliptic as it moves from a southerly declination to a northern one.

Krishnamurti was born at night which makes him particularly susceptible to the w . Hence, viewing his horoscope relative to the w 's l and noting how these altered positions relate to the standard chart can add to our understanding.

At Krishnamurti's birth the w 's l was at 18º 55' n . This is 11º 05' distant from 0º a. [Note, here I use the mean node and not the so-called ‘true node'. As the w 's l only truly exists when the w is actually crossing the equator, the fluctuating direct-retrograde motion of the so-called ‘true node' strikes me as unnecessary overkill.]
To erect the draconic or nodal horoscope, we simply add this amount, 11º 05', to the standard positions of the planets and house cusps. The comparable positions are as follows:
 

Comparing draconic positions with those in the standard chart identifies seven close A or S aspects:

w S y
e A p
r A t
i S e
i A MC
o S w
MC S p
 

There are other important aspects besides these (draconic ASC F u , for example, which I believe gave him his longevity), but here I'll confine myself to just these seven.

The connection between the w and y that draconic w S y indicates is not exactly new, the two bodies are already closely related by their mutual reception [5]  , but this opposition identifies the inner conflicts Krishnamurti experienced with regard to his outlook on life, specifically in religious matters. It also tells how he came to move in the best circles despite his humble birth. Women, particularly Mrs. Besant, helped him in life. They were no doubt impressed by his sagacity, tact, diplomacy and good humor (emphasized by t G y ). If the w , by its placement in the 11 th house, represents Mrs. Besant and the hopes and dreams of the thousands of theosophists (as I believe it does), this opposition tells us that Krishnamurti had to distinguish between the real and the unreal, between material and spiritual matters, between common sense and high-flown theories of moral uplift.

Draconic o S w expands upon this. It indicates Krishnamurti's extreme sensitivity and his ability to feel the suffering of others. He was easily imposed upon, others took advantage of him—Mrs. Besant, Leadbeater and the thousands of willing disciples, who wanted him to be the new Messiah and so fulfill their dreams. To survive he had to accept the presence of the collective unconscious in himself, to assimilate his past and hidden self, and foreswear the pleasures of the ego. This aspect also suggests a deep sense of inferiority, that he realized that inherently he was nobody, someone devoid of genuine accomplishment, and inclined to live by proxy–that he was a vehicle.

Draconic r A t suggests a potential problem in properly satisfying sexual love needs. So far as I know, he never did. Instead, he sublimated them.

But it is the other draconic aspects, those involving e, i, p and the MC, that really help us relate the horoscope to the true Krishnamurti.

e in s in the standard chart tells us his thinking was formal and logical, patient. It is at the cusp of the 4 th house, so he could become deeply immersed in whatever he was interested in, and he thought best when he applied himself to self-analysis. We get this from the standard chart. But then we add the exact draconic i opposition from the 9 th house and we realize his thinking had to have been wildly unconventional. The nature of the aspect tells us that he had to fight within himself, that he was challenged to find a way of putting things together mentally that was uniquely original, and that he had to discover how to communicate the results of this independent thinking to others. His mind will have been free from authoritarian thinking, ingenious and clever. e S i indicates an original, non-conforming mind, one able to see through the sham of authorities. This same aspect shows his frequent changes of location, and it tells us he was continually excited with life, and that he developed a defiant and iconoclastic mentality that delighted in exploding others' myths and illusions. It also says he could be very pig-headed.

The draconic i has come from the 9 th to the place of Krishnamurti's Midheaven. Ruler of the Ascendant A MC. He achieved his true reputation in life by rejecting the position others had prepared for him. His goals were unique, perhaps eccentric. He became a pioneer in religious thought and philosophy, many calling him a genius. Cyril Fagan said that i A MC gives A Messiah complex, he is all things to all people...His career, social standing, status and power may fluctuate radically from obscurity to fame and back again, unexpectedly and dramatically... He can become the symbol of a movement, a cause, or an ideal.

e was S the MC at Krishnamurti's birth. In the draconic chart both e and the MC have come to the position of p : e to A p , the MC to S p . And p rules the Midheaven.

The very able astrologers of the Theosophical Society, including Alan Leo, closely analyzed this chart. They were convinced it was the horoscope of a new Messiah. Their analyses dictated many of the steps Krishnamurti was directed to take in his early life in order to synchronize with astrological factors, yet things didn't turn out at all as these experts predicted. They didn't know something we know today. They didn't know about p . It hadn't yet been discovered.

p is the planetary outsider, he signifies detachment and separation on every level of existence. For all its bad press, p can be the most self-effacing, gentlest, compassionate, tender and considerate of planets, yet those born with it highlighted in the horoscope need to think and act as they wish, without constraint, and this makes p the true rebel. In the horoscope he signifies a person's antisocial attitude, the difference between the native and society at large, his repudiation of current customs and his urge to hide himself away from others, frequently in a foreign land. He detests publicity and prefers to live in isolation, avoiding coming into contact with others as much as possible.

u in the 9 th tells us this is the chart of someone who doubted the standard ideas of religion. i in the 9 th tells us he was an independent, unconventional thinker, for whom foreign contacts and travel were important. To these indications of rebellion, we now add a prominent p .

p rules the MC here and as such, with the w , signifies his mother, Sanjeevma. She was a devoutly religious woman, said to be psychic (draconic o S w ), one who could see the color of people's auras. Before Krishnamurti's birth, she intuited that her eighth child was to be a rare and special human being. She insisted over the objections of her husband that the child should be born in the puja room of their tiny house. This was an extraordinary event. The puja room, the special sanctified heart of the home set aside for prayers, was only to be entered for worship after a ritual bath and the wearing of clean clothes, never at night after food or in the morning before washing. For a birth to take place in that room would be considered pollution. Nonetheless, Sanjeevma was adamant and Krishnamurti was born in the puja room.

Sanjeevma was evidently sympathetic to her husband's theosophical ideas for she would often talk to Krishna about Mrs. Annie Besant, who was greatly loved in India because of the work she had done for Indian education. Krishnamurti later said that as well as pictures of Indian deities on the walls of his childhood home, there was a photograph of Mrs. Besant in Indian dress sitting cross-legged on a chowki covered with a tiger skin.

p is opposed by the draconic MC and conjunct the draconic e . MC S p warns us that this odd-man-out is going to experience total upheaval and change in his life. e A p suggests that he must face Universal truth, the reality of mortality (the death of his brother), a reality that totally changed his direction and perception on life.

A standard interpretation for e A p is that the native is unable to fully voice his thoughts in public–that he feels cut off from others. He is likely to quit his job and seek self-employment because of his inability to work with others. Krishnamurti was able to speak in publicly and did so brilliantly. But at the time he was the Messianic crown prince he increasingly felt cut off from those around him, especially after the death of his brother, as he began to question the role he had been given. Then, in rejecting the role of Messiah, he did quit his job and he did cut himself off from others.

All aspects of K's teaching rest on the bedrock of standing alone. Be a light to yourself, he said. To stand-alone became his major theme. He questioned all assumptions, even his own–especially his own. Aloneness is a very frightening thing for most people, and yet it is very difficult to develop answers to your own questions unless you can stand alone. Hence the imposition of psychological or spiritual imperative of others, however exalted, should not be allowed to persuade us. Their truths could only be second-hand opinion to us. Those who nest in the comfort of ready-made beliefs will never fly.

MC S p brought death into his family. First his mother (MC), then his father (IC) and finally his beloved brother. Their deaths were necessary for him to achieve a new sense of personal meaning and mortality; he had to forsake the past, traditions and his very roots in an ultimate battle of selfhood and come to a final self-induced birth of a new identity.

Where p is in the chart is where's there's often an absence. In the draconic chart the planet of the mind, e , is A p .

When the mind is swept clean of image, of ritual, of belief, of symbol, of all words, mantras or repetitions, and of all fear, then what you see will be the real, the timeless...

The validity of p in this chart is confirmed by events that occurred coincident with its transits over planets in the horoscope:

p A draconic p – Mother dies,
p S w – First meets Mrs. Annie Besant,
p A draconic o – Book published under pseudonym of Alcyone; the theosophists worship him,
p C o – Brother dies,
p A y – Father dies,
p A draconic y – Dissolves the Order of the Star,
p A u – Krishnamurti dies.
