Biography:

American military hero for his leadership in the Gulf War in January 1991.

Growing up in the Bronx, after getting a BS

and MBA, he entered the U.S. Army in 1958 and rose to the post of Assistant to

President Bush for National Security,

1987. In his posts, including Vietnam in 1962, his conduct has earned him the

Bronze Star, the Air Medal and the Purple

Heart. He was Knighted by Queen Elizabeth on 12/15/1993 for his ability in the Gulf War.

A strong family man, he married Alma Johnson in 1957 and has three grown kids.

He has been quoted as saying that

he is "comfortable with myself, but too quick to anger," and reflecting his

personal life, "What else is there in life but

family?"

After publishing "My American Journey," 9/25/1995, he appeared on talk shows

and promo tours. His popularity is so

great that were he to run for President, his success seems assured; however,

his wife was strongly against such a

move. As the first black president, she feels that he would be a target. He

himself said that "did not have a fire in his

belly" for the job. What Powell chooses to do is run "America's Promise," his

crusade to enlist corporations,

government, nonprofit organizations and millions of citizens into giving every

child at risk five things: an ongoing with a

caring adult, a safe place to go after school, a healthy start, a marketable

skill and a chance to serve others.

Dear Members,

 

Thanks for the feedback and info. However it appears that the

AstroData Bank DOB of *May* 5th, 1937 is in the minority. Most

indicate *April* 5th, 1937 including the White House Bio:

 

http://www.whitehouse.gov/government/powell-bio.html

 

Colin L. Powell was nominated by President Bush on December 16, 2000

as Secretary of State. After being unanimously confirmed by the U.S.

Senate, he was sworn in as the 65th Secretary of State on January 20,

2001.

 

Prior to his appointment, Secretary Powell was the chairman of

America's Promise - The Alliance for Youth, a national nonprofit

organization dedicated to mobilizing people from every sector of

American life to build the character and competence of young people.

 

Secretary Powell was a professional soldier for 35 years, during

which time he held myriad command and staff positions and rose to the

rank of 4-star General. His last assignment, from October 1, 1989 to

September 30, 1993, was as the 12th Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of

Staff, the highest military position in the Department of Defense.

During this time, he oversaw 28 crises, including Operation Desert

Storm in the victorious 1991 Persian Gulf war.

 

Following his retirement, Secretary Powell wrote his best-selling

autobiography, My American Journey, which was published in 1995.

Additionally, he pursued a career as a public speaker, addressing

audiences across the country and abroad.

 

Secretary Powell was born in New York City on April 5, 1937 and was

raised in the South Bronx. His parents, Luther and Maud Powell,

immigrated to the United States from Jamaica. Secretary Powell was

educated in the New York City public schools, graduating from the

City College of New York (CCNY), where he earned a bachelor's

degree

in geology. He also participated in ROTC at CCNY and received a

commission as an Army second lieutenant upon graduation in June 1958.

His further academic achievements include a Master of Business

Administration degree from George Washington University.

 

Secretary Powell is the recipient of numerous U.S. and foreign

military awards and decorations.

 

Secretary Powell's civilian awards include two Presidential

Medals of

Freedom, the President's Citizens Medal, the Congressional Gold

Medal, the Secretary of State Distinguished Service Medal, and the

Secretary of Energy Distinguished Service Medal. Several schools and

other institutions have been named in his honor and he holds honorary

degrees from universities and colleges across the country.

 

Secretary Powell is married to the former Alma Vivian Johnson of

Birmingham, Alabama. The Powell family includes son Michael;

daughters Linda and Anne; daughter-in-law Jane; and grandsons Jeffrey

and Bryan.

Dear Aru,

 

While it is probably best to confirm the birth time before venturing

out predictions based on Dasamasa, there are a few indications that

can be seen from the Rasi Chart.

 

Being born under the influence of Kala-Amrita Yoga, Colin Powell has

had to overcome significant challenges to rise to this level and

success and recognition has come later in life.

 

>From the Moon, there is a conjunction of 9th (Me) and 5th & 10th Lord

(Ve) in the 4th. A similar combination occurs from the Sun where 10th

Lord (Ju) is in conjunction 5th Lord (Mo) with Rasi Aspect from 9th

Lord (Ma). In fact, notice the influence of Ra (Explosives) and Ma

(Aggression, Leadership) on both these combinations.

 

In my view, When Bhagya Devata and Karma Devata combine (or some

similar relationship), the individual has an increased opportunity to

bear the fruits of their free will. It creates a positive feedback

loop as the greater you work, the greater your fortune and vice

versa. Maybe that is why the classics put a high premium on the

Dharma-Karma Dhipati Yoga. Notice the influence of Ju, Su and Ke

(Dharma) on the trines from Moon.

 

Regards,

Prakash Sarma
