Name of the Native : Adolf Hitler Date of Birth : 20.04.1889 Place of Birth : Braunau am Inn, Upper Austria Time of birth : 6:30 PM ( Taken from the book, The Rise and Fall of the Third Reich by William L. Shirer )
Birth Chart :

Navamsha :

It is a wonder to many that how the boy who once wanted to become a painter ended up becoming a dictator. As you’ll notice above, his ascendant is Libra in both the navamsha/D9 as well as the birth chart. Libra is owned by the planet Venus, which is in retrograde , 7th from the first house, and 12th from the 8th. It is interesting to note, that he applied for the Academy of Fine Arts Vienna in October, 1907 when his Venus Mahadasha was about to end on 04.12.1907 ( Every Mahadasha’s starting as well ending brings tectonic changes, gearing up the individual for the next phase of his / her life ).
To understand the Hitler we have got to understand his mind, because that’s what we are interested in for this particular analysis. Look at the position of the moon, it is 6th from it’s own house of Kendra. So, although his mind did give him success in the middle stages of his life but also gave him enemies, both within the state ( the previous power-holders ) and outside the state. He also survived many assassination attempts. Rahu’s drishti is on the moon, in the 3rd house, which gave him courage, this combination gave him exceptional rise on the political front ( His mind was responsible for his rise, which although was negative owing to Rahu, but at the same time, Rahu’s position in the chart is one of the best it can be in a chart . We’ll see later, how ? ) and also the protective cover on the battlefield by the Jupiter. The Rahu drishti’s on Jupiter also gave him psuedo-idealism. Further the lord of the speech is Mars, which is 6th from it’s own place made him a fiery-speaker, but fiery alone wouldn’t have made him a great orator, it was the Buddha-Aditya yoga, happening in the 7th house. His education lord Saturn going 6th from it’s place, signifies breaks and as history tells us he never went beyond the secondary education.
Now that we have got an overall juice of the matter for scholarly purposes, let’s look at the events one by one.
- Mother’s death – 21/12/1907 ( Venus Mahadasha – 04/04/1891 to 04/12/1907; Mother’s death happened in the Su/Su ) The Sun is the lord of house of gains, and from there, the 4th house lord is 12th and the 4th house is 6th from it’s own house. – Happens just at the turn of the next dasha.
- Joins the army – 1914 ( Moon’s Mahadasha : 04/12/1913 to 04/12/1923 ) Again, happens just at the turn of the next dasha. Now, the moon represents the mind, 6th from it’s own place/kendra under heavy pressure from the Rahu-Jupiter-Ketu in the 3rd house, giving him courage ( he won 5 war medals, most notably the Iron Cross in the WW1 ), & recognition YET the resentment and psuedo-idealism during this period which shaped the following years of his life )
- Coup attempt ; Beer Hall Putsch – 08/11/1923 ; Again, happens at the end of the dasha of the Mo/Su, coming to end in the following month, i.e 04/12/1923
- Imprisonment– Following the Coup attempt he was arrested in the starting of the next Mahadasha of Mars ( 04/12/1923-04/12/1930 ), in the year 1924, but again his excellently placed Rahu came to his rescue and made him released in December, 1924 during Ma/Ra period. During this period the lord of communication was active in speeches and his writings, which set the stage for his next Mahadasha of Rahu.
- The Rahu if well placed, can take people to soaring heights. His Rahu is exalted in the Gemini. His strength gets increases manifold owing to it’s position in the best trikona/laxmi sthana; 9th. Further, a thing about Rahu is , what it gives also takes it away, the results are not of the permanence usually as is the case with the Saturn.
- Becomes a chancellor– 30/01/1933 during the Ra/Ra period.
- Invasion of Poland – 01/09/1939, during the Ra/Me period, see the conjunction of Ra & Me in the Navamsha in the 8th house where unexpected events of life could be analyzed)
- Marries Eva Braun on 29/04/1945 during the Ra/Ve/Ke period- Rahu like Venus is also a natural signifactor of marriage, committing suicide the next day with bullet. See the Navamsha/D9, Ketu-Rahu in 2-8 axis, with Venus in the second house of Mars.
Yogas detected:
- Ruchaka Panch Mahapurusha yoga – When Mars is in it’s own sign or in it’s exalted sign Capricorn and in Kendra at the same time. In his chart, Mars is in Aries making this yoga. Responsible for authoritarianism, leadership qualities. Good for the military. In his case since the Mars is combusted, but at the same time surrounded by benefics and also because of the Rahu antardasha, he was imprisoned, but only for 9 months.
- Gajakesari Yoga– Jupiter & Moon in kendra from each other.
- Powerful Dhana Yoga– Mars (2nd lord of wealth) in connection with ( 9th lord / laxmi sthana / trikona / luck ) Mercury , Sun ( 11th lord of gains )
