Who's in the News - David Letterman | Print |
David Letterman is a "master manipulator" according to a lawyer representing the producer accused of trying to extort $2 million (GBP1.3 million) from the talk show host. Letterman revealed during his late night show on Thursday (October 1, 2009) that he had been blackmailed over his sexual affairs with several female members of staff.

Letterman has such a chart of scandals, I am surprised there hasn’t been more in the news on this topic before now. The house of scandals is the 8th house and it is situated here is his natal Jupiter with Ketu in the sign of Scorpio. Most significantly with this chart Mars and Jupiter are in parivartana yoga which means mutual reception. They are in others’ sign of rulership. This connects his Mars and Jupiter. Jupiter is in the 8th house and Mars is in the 12th house. The 12th house pertains to secrets and secret enemies, whereas the 8th house indicates scandals. The exchange between these houses is also called vipareeta raja yoga (when the rulers of the dusthana houses are in each other’s houses). The dusthana houses are the most difficult houses of the chart. The dusthana houses are 6, 8 and 12. But it actually means there will be great wealth that comes out of difficulty. l considered this as 2 negatives working together to equal a positive. Negative events turn out to bring huge wealth and notoriety. Individuals with this yoga can be extraordinarily wealthy.

Letterman’s wealth is also indicated by the grand trine of natal Jupiter with the 12th house planets (Mercury, Mars and Sun) and his 4th house Saturn. Natal Jupiter aspects his 2nd house and Rahu by opposition, Jupiter’s aspect to planets creates productivity, expansion, opportunities and wealth.

The 2nd house pertains to our ability to produce our own wealth and money. Venus is ruler of his 2nd house (Venus rules Taurus) and is in the 11th house of great gains. When the 2nd house ruler is in the 11th house of gains there is a great ability to produce wealth. Additionally, the 2nd house deals with the voice and speech. As a talk show host he has reached one of the highest pinnacles of success, (coincidentally Oprah Winfrey has the 2nd house ruler in the 11th house).

As to his major fall from grace, transiting Saturn at 3 degrees of Virgo is aspecting his natal Jupiter in the 8th house. In Vedic astrology Saturn’s full aspects are conjunction, opposition, 3 and 10 signs away from its position. October 22-24 transiting Mars will conjunct his natal Saturn in his 4th house. Saturn rules his 10th house of career and Mars will continue to transit his 4th house of home and family until May 2010. The difficulty caused by Mars aspecting Saturn adds more fire in mid-November when transiting Saturn will oppose his natal Mars in the 12th house. There is more to be uncovered and I think this exposure of truth could ruin his career. Once again, Saturn gives us the opportunity to come clean and face the truth. Saturn, the planet of truth and consequences is working. Remember Saturn gives us exactly what we deserve. That doesn’t always mean suffering! Saturn does give just rewards for those who play by the rules. Currently, transiting Saturn is aspecting his natal Jupiter in the 8th house of scandals, I predict this will be a very difficult year for him, with great loss and humiliation.

Joni. Great insight as usual. I pulled Letterman's tropical chart weeks ago to
ascertain what was happening. You are dead on. With transiting Pluto squaring
his natal Mars in position for quite some time, I expect that Mr. Letterman will
be getting double doses of his own medicine.

Madam,
With reference to the David Letterman's
chart, I would like to know why
Dasha/Bhukti results are not considered.

Thanks,
Janak

Volumes can be written about each person. These are short brief points to teach
Vedic astrology. I focus on only a few points for a lesson. The dasha/bhukti are
important and I do always consider them, but not in these short write ups. The
vast audience is not advanced in understanding the deeper points of Vedic
astrology, so I try to keep the points basic to appeal to more people.

Well, interesting and insightful commentary by Joni... The 8th house, in one
respect, can be alikened to the River Styx which bounds the void between this
mortal dimension and the afterlife. Especially since the water-sign Scorpio lies
naturally upon the 8th house of a "basic chart" and this combination,
that is illustrated for the subject, manifest in such a position. Further, under
the Ascendant seal of Aries, ruled by Mars; denoting amongst others, the
ramifications of male virility and recklessness. Divining, for him,
circumstances that will manifest in his life... if he had only known... But
then, such a combination for an individual displays "derring-do" and
also "delicious carelessness" much as the moth flitting around the flame
of a candle; loves the light but knows it will harm! So there's a spoiled
Jupiter [luck is jeopardized] and Ketu; symbolized in one instance by a
trident. And the sign Scorpio; none more fitting to represent the Ferry Man
Chiron that accompanies the deceased across the river to Hades... often paid, in
olden times, and yet still, by some, by the laying of a silver coin upon each
eye of the deceased, while they lie in state.
And lest it escapes us... the
12th, of ending and summation of all the life, including the circumstance of
"bed pleasures", which this man enjoys and obviously was/has been caught
up in!

Looking at the Letterman chart, relocated for Hollywood, I can see why he is
both famous as well as infimaous. The Mercury/Venus strattaling the local
ascendent. He is also very prone to scandal due to the fact that he has the Moon
exactly squaring Neptune,planet of deception of deception and scandaled.
His
2011 Sidereal Solar Return,set for Hollywood (4/12/2011 at 21:45:57 GMT) has
setting Neptune. This will bring scandle and a lot of deception to his life. But
this is not the only thing he has to worry about this Solar Cycle. He has Mars
in the 8th opposing Pluro and squaring off Saturn. This is going to be a very
hard year for David Letterman. More over, the most prominent parans in the Solar
Return are Mercury and Jupiter setting ( 0d 11' orb) and Sun IC/Pluto Rising (0d
13' orb) In and of itself, the Mercury /Jupiter angular would be a good thing,
but with the lowr meridian Sun and rising Pluto, it spells serious crisis for
Mr. Letter and his good reputation,will fall below the horrion. You are right,
it has not and will not be a good year for David Letterman.
The next Solar
Return (4/12/2012 at 04:05:36 GMT) will also be difficult. He has elevated Mars
opposed Neptun, both of which will reach the angles, at about the same time.
This is indicative of possale attack or other agressive experences. He needs to
really watch his back. The second problem is that the progressed Solar Moon will
reach the Solar Pluto on the afternoon of July 2012. Here is where the implesit
crisis or triggering event will ooccur. He will not have a happy fourth of July.
The good news is, that when the progressed Moon and Pluto are together, the
Solar Jupiter, will have rotated to the IC of the Solar Return, by the Quotidian
rate. That is a very big saving grace.

A Course In Miracles"I can elect to change all thoughts that hurt. Only my condemnation injures me. Only my own forgiveness sets me free. How deceived I was to think that what I feared was in the world, instead of in my own mind. Forgiveness ends the dream of conflict. As forgiveness allows love to return to my awareness, I will see a world of peace and safety and joy. This world will change through you. No other means can save it. My forgiveness is the means by which the world is healed, together with myself, let me then forgive the world, that it may be healed along with me. Peace will come to all who ask for it with real desire and sincerity of purpose." -- A Course In Miracles
