Kishore Kumar

Fire takes four of his ten planets, with two apiece in earth, air and water, and five of the ten are mutable. The record calls Kumar an Indian playback singer and actor with an extraordinary vocal range, largely untrained.

The Sun sits in easy contact with Uranus at thirteen hundredths of a degree, close enough to call exact, and the reading is independence without a fight: being unusual and untroubled by it, and sudden opportunities that happen to suit. For a singer the record calls largely untrained, somebody unusual who never had to make a case for it is the contact that reaches the record, and it is the closest thing in this chart by a wide margin.

The Sun also sits sixty degrees from Jupiter at just over two thirds of a degree, growth without much friction and opportunity arriving through being well thought of, and Jupiter sits at that same angle to Uranus at just over half, fortunate change and an ease around new ideas. So the Sun, Jupiter and Uranus make an easy triangle of identity, scale and the unexpected, all inside three quarters of a degree. Mars sits sixty degrees from Pluto at a third, strategic effort. This chart holds no closed figure of any kind. For a singer the record calls largely untrained, an easy triangle of identity, scale and the unexpected is the whole account the aspects give.

Mercury sits at sixteen degrees of Leo beside that Sun, Venus on the last degree of Gemini with Jupiter at eleven, and Mars at nineteen degrees of Virgo with Neptune on the first. His Moon sits on the twenty ninth degree of Cancer at noon and may have reached Leo, so it is left out. Saturn and Uranus were the two retrograde planets. He died at Mumbai on 13 October 1987, at fifty eight. The Moon was disseminating and sixty four per cent lit, a phase that passes on what was worked out and needs it to land, which for a playback singer whose voice carried other people's performances is the phase to leave this on.
