Summary analysis
So this chart is very good and tells me that due to her the family, she would have done very well or she was born into a family of wealth; father had lot of money but some amount of strain in family life is seen right from her birth. She is ascendant Gemini, intelligent, likes to enjoy her life, independent minded like any other young woman of today, experimented with social media, was a pleasant personality, good looking charming but home life ever since her birth, there was never peace of mind. Either there is some kind of tension always between the parents or the father must have struggled a lot to make the money that he did because Rahu is in the second house and she having MKSD; suggests that she wanted to be independent from her family; she wanted to get away; her thought process maybe did not align with the rigid thought process of her family, that is highly possible; Moon is in the 5th house; so again mother would not have approved of her lifestyle; some differences with mother are there and Ketu is in the 8th; so sudden health issues are possible. Though the father has killed her but the role of the mother cannot be ignored because there was disharmony in the house; in fact as per chart, father seems to be closer to her than the mother. 9th house has Mercury and Venus; so she would have lived in luxury, material luxury all her life; she herself would have been very soft spoken polite, good looking, enjoyed her life due to family’s wealth and even she herself would have been doing something and making decent amount of money but of course help of the family can never be ruled out in this case. It is not as if without the help of the father she was doing what she was doing; the initial seed money and motivation would have come from the father only; this as Sun is in the 10th house; so she would occupy a position of authority in her life; like being an owner of a tennis academy; earn a lot of money and she was headstrong, courageous, prompt and no nonsense kind of a person but peace of mind was not there because Mars is Lord, Jupiter and Saturn is debilitated in the 11th house. So this means she was good natured person, well educated. lucky but again Saturn debilitated in the 11th house with Jupiter in the same house shows that always some kind of tension is there in the household. As an example I would say restriction by the parents that she would not have liked, right from the start of her life. Despite the wealth a stifling kind of atmosphere was there for her because she was born in her second house Rahu Mahadasha with MKSD; so till the age of five as it is there was tension; the father would have struggled very hard but she was a child; she would not have come to know that; then her Jupiter Mahadasha from 2005 to 2021 in which she studied, learned tennis, got involved in social media like all the teenagers but that time also there was tension always in the background because she Saturn is sitting in the same house debilitated, waiting to catch her and give her lot of trouble in her life. So from 2005 to 2021 she could have rebelled mildly against the family; leaning towards leading an independent life and waiting to be an adult and then once she became an adult; the timing is so tragic; as she reached her 21 years of age; her debilitated 11th house Saturn Mahadasha started for 19 years; so at that time when she would have wanted to get her wings and fly and be independent as she wanted to; this is a chart of an independent woman; Shani grounded her and cut her down to size. The rest you all know. Now if the father killed her or the mother planned it or whoever did what, from the astrological perspective it becomes immaterial from her chart because she was not supposed to fly career wise during this time especially from 2021. There must have been lot of pressure from family of course to tone it down which she did not and it ended in this very tragic cutting shot of a life. From the chart definitely you can see that after the age of 21 there is severe trouble and increased agitation and rebellion seen in her chart. She would have rebelled strongly against the family – rest the reaction of the family depends on the chart of the parents.
Had her Saturn been benefic, then we would easily have an international level tennis star. But it being debilitated landed her in a career soup, which may have forced her to get into social media as an influencer and struggling much to the increased family objection and frustration. Luck was working against her.
She was just one benefic Saturn short of her fellow Haryana athlete Neeraj Chopra’s level of fame.
