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.

Guest guest Posted April 14, 2002 Report Share Posted April 14, 2002 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.
