Natal Chart(D1) of David Gilmour


Basic Characteristics of the D-1 chart               

  • Tula Lagna with Lagna Lord/LL Venus (Ve) exalted in the 6th house of service/work along with 9th lord of fortune Me though debilitated, with Ve it results in a neecha banga raj yoga

  • 10th lord of career/work/status Moon (Mo) in  samsaptaka/180 degrees with 6th lord of work Jupiter (Ju) in the 1-7 axis of kendra resulting in massive raj yoga thus giving huge fame & success to the individual. Ju & Mo are approx just 2 degrees apart and their samsaptaka in mutual kendra's results in Gaja Kesari yoga

  • Su directly aspecting the Simha Aruda Lagna that also gives massive fame 

  • Conjunction of 4th lord & 5th lord (Sa& Ra) in the 9th house of fortune resulting in a partial Dharma karma Adipati yoga for the individual

Sarvatobadra Chakra of David Gilmour

Before you chart SBC of David Gilmour, lets briefly understand as to what Sarvatobadra Chakra signifies?? 

SBC is a predictive tool used in Jyotisha to predict events through gochara/transit analysis of graha's in specific nakshatras which can indicate whether it could be an auspicious event or an unfortunate one ... regardless of it, SBC can be used.

 Some Key Features & Info of SBC

It is a 9×9 grid (81 squares/boxes) that integrates multiple Vedic elements into one comprehensive chart such as:

  • 28 Nakshatras (Including Abhijit Nakshatras apart from the conventional 27 ones)

  • 12 Rasis/zodiac

  • 30 Tithi's (Krishna + Shukla paksha)

  • 7 Vara's

  • 50 Akshara's


SBC of David Gilmour

























The above depicts the SBC of David Gilmour where graha is situated in its respective nakshatra from its natal D-1 chart.
To understand gochara's and that too indicating auspicious events related to fame/status in career, take the nakshatra (vedas) from the nakshatra of the 10th lord and in this case from D-1, the 10th lord is Moon/Mo in Ashwini nakshatra through nakshatra vedas has influence on nakshatra's such as Rohini, Jyestha, Purva Phalguni nakshatra and this option of highlighting nakshatra vedas from each graha option is present in Jagannath Hora(Jhora) Software The transit of important grahas in the above mentioned nakshatra's like Sa who is the karaka for career/work, Ju who is karaka for overall happiness/prosperity in life, the 10th lord itself in these nakshatras can indicate significant events in one's life Sarvatobadra Chakra for the release date of the album "Dark Side of the Moon"

The album "The Dark Side of the Moon" was released on 1st March 1973 in the United States by Capital Records and on March 16th, 1973, in UK by Harvest Records For the SBC analysis, I am considering the date March 1st, 1973, release by Capital Records in the USA. At that in 1973, Capital Records had their studio/office in Los Angles, California which sets the place for this analysis The timings of the studio on a typical workday was from 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM and for my analysis, I have taken 9:30 AM given the grand success of the album which can also be deduced through Navamsa/D-9 chart which explains Bhagya/fortune in general apart from typical marriage in an individual's case. Chart of the release of Dark Side of the Moon





















Some Observations from D-1 chart:

  • Lagna Lord/LL Kuja/Ma in the 9th house of fortune and in an adimitra/friendly Rashi (Sagittarius) 

  • Conjuction of 4th lord Mo & 9th lord Ju in 10th house of status resulting in a powerful Gaja Kesari Yoga. The conjunction is happening in a very powerful Abhijit Nakshtra as well bestowing grand success to the album in general in this case




Some Observations from D-9 Chart:

  • Conjunction of 9th lord (Mo) & 10th lord (Su) in the 5th house of power along with 5th lord Ju resulting in a massive raja yoga and in samsaptaka with LL Mars which is present in the 11th house of gains


SBC of the Album (The Dark Side of the Moon):


SBC - Dark Side of the Moon


                                                                                       
If we take the above points mentioned from the SBC of Gilmour that transit of important grahas like Sa , Ju , Mo(10th lord) in specific nakshatras like Rohini , Jyestha , Purva Phalguni can indicate a major event in career and in this case , Sa who is the karaka for work has transited Rohini nakshatra and from Gilmour's chart , Sa is a yoga karaka and a functional benefic who can bestow huge amounts of success in career/work and needless to say Sa transit into Rohini around 1973 gave huge amount of success to David Gilmour as well as the band in the Global Music Space and usually Saturn gives long lasting results and even to this date in 2026 , people remember the songs from the album and its relevance in today's time.

Dasa Indication Apart from SBC Analysis:

From Gilmour's D-1 Chart, Vimshottari Dasa can be used for analysis 




David Gilmour Ran Dasa of Su from 1970 till 1976 and under Sa bhukti from 1973-1974

If we analyze the chart from Su taking Su as the Lagna (Su Dasha) with Lagna being Kumbha/Aquarius, LL Saturn is in the 5th house of power, authority with 10th lord Kuja/Ma and in an Adi Mithra Rashi/Gemini thus it is in tandem with SBC analysis as well.

Some Key Impacts of this Album Worldwide:

  • Topped charts in multiple countries and reached #1 on the US Billboard 200 for about one week

  • Certified multi-platinum worldwide, with sales estimates close to around 45 million copies (One of the best-selling albums ever, ranking behind albums like Thriller by Michael Jackson).

1998/1999 Treble - A remarkable tale of Grit forged with Destiny

Image
 Grit & Glory '99 The year 1998/1999 season for Manchester United was nothing short of a fairytale where they not only ended up winning the 1998/99 season by defeating Tottenham on the final day of the season on 16/5/1999, but also ended up winning the FA Cup over Newcastle and UEFA Champions League Over Bayern Munich, all of this in a span of 10 days making them the first English Team to win the historic treble under the leadership of Sir Alex Ferguson . Now, one may wonder was all this due to hard work, passion, perseverance, dedication, etc. of the entire team playing endless competitions, game after game or did fate play a catalyst in this entire process for Manchester United. Now, if we do check the chart (D1& D-10) of Sir Alex Ferguson who was the manager of Manchester United at that time and in a way was the primal face of the club, does one realize that fate does play a role in this especially around the entire season per se. Note: D1 chart also called the natal c...

Abhijit Nakshatra In Motion

Image
  Essence of Abhijit Nakshatra Conventionally, we know that there are 27 nakshatras that map to 12 rashi's and 9 planets in the universe that starts from Ashwini nakshatra (in naisargika order) and ends with Revati nakshatra.  In terms of mapping, it starts with Mesha (Aries) owing to Ashwini Nakshatra and ends with Meena (Pisces) owing to Revathi nakshatra. But apart from the 27 nakshatras, there is a hidden nakshatra that maps to Makara (Capricorn) rashi which goes by Abhijit nakshatra which constitutes the 28th nakshatra.  The nakshatra's significance actually is present owing to its mention in  Shrimad Bhagavatam (also known as the Bhagavata Purana ) Shrimad Bhagavatam  Canto 11, Chapter 16, Verse 27 Full verse:  संवत्सरोऽस्म्यनिमिषामृतूनां मधुमाधवौ । मासानां मार्गशीर्षोऽहं नक्षत्राणां तथाभिजित् ॥  Meaning of the verse: "Among the vigilant cycles of time, I am the year,  Among the seasons, I am spring (Madhu and Madhava), Among ...

Unravelling Nolan’s Mind: Cinematic Direction Through the Nodes in Play

  Unravelling Nolan’s Mind: Cinematic Direction Through the Nodes in Play When one talks of Cinema & Cinematography in general, one of the most common names that pops up in the mind of people is Christopher Nolan and of course one can say it's mainstream of course but one may wonder if his cinematic work & thinking and approach to cinema also is mainstream and that is something to ponder upon definitely. I attempt here to give a gist of how he approaches his work towards directing movies and to use this knowledge in analyzing his career from the perspective of Jyotisha and to sort of decipher as to whether they are in sync with one another. Nolan's Style & Approach to Cinema Few of the key themes his work revolves around are time, memory, existential questions through the use of non-linear storytelling and complex narrative structures which works in tandem to form his cinematic work which can be seen through the likes of movies like Memento, Inception where these t...
