By the mid-Sixties,\nThe Beatles and the Beach Boys loomed large in pop music, one the leader of the\nBritish Invasion, the other the epitome of California\u00e2\u0080\u0099s surfing culture.\nIronically, each band was also the other\u00e2\u0080\u0099s inspiration. Like so many other\nmusicians, the Beach Boys were in awe of The Beatles\u00e2\u0080\u0099 songwriting, and the\nBeatles were no less impressed with The Beach Boys\u00e2\u0080\u0099 accomplishments in the\nrecording studio. Paul McCartney admitted that The Beach Boys album, Pet\nSounds<\/em>, was the primary inspiration for The Beatles\u00e2\u0080\u0099 subsequent Sgt.\nPepper\u00e2\u0080\u0099s Lonely Hearts Club Band<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Paul McCartney & Brian Wilson<\/strong><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Brian Wilson is often\ncited as a musical and recording genius. Perhaps no one has said the same of\nPaul McCartney, and yet no one could deny his enormous talent, both as a\nsongwriter and musician. The remarkable thing about these two world-class icons\nof Sixties pop music is that they were born a mere two days apart \u00e2\u0080\u0093 Paul\nMcCartney on June 18th, Brian Wilson on June 20th of 1942.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Paul McCartney<\/strong> has a Class 2 Kala Sarpa<\/em>, in which category the planets do not occupy the same signs as the nodes, but are spread among the five intervening houses, albeit with one or more of those houses left empty. Only 2% of horoscopes exhibit this pattern.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

His nodal axis is\naligned through the 12th\/6th house axis. On the face of it, this implies a\nstrong sex drive, since the 12th house reflects pleasures of the bed, as\nopposed to neglecting 6th houses issues such as service to others. But aside\nfrom Rahu\u00e2\u0080\u0099s 12th house placement here suggesting an international career, the\ndeeper import of any Kala Sarpa<\/em> lies in the disposition of the planets\nthat modulate its output, which are themselves \u00e2\u0080\u009cpowered up\u00e2\u0080\u009d by the energy it confers\non the horoscope.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Rahu is neither\nassociated with nor aspected by any planet. But its rashi<\/em> dispositor the\nSun occupies the 10th house with digbala<\/em>, and is eminently stabilized by\nits natural friend Jupiter. The Sun in the 10th is a signature of command and\ncontrol, and McCartney was indisputably the Beatles\u00e2\u0080\u0099 organizer. He was also arguably\nthe more creative of the songwriting partnership with John Lennon, and was a\nversatile musician who could play virtually any instrument \u00e2\u0080\u0093 bass, guitar,\npiano, drums.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ketu is associated\nwith no planet, but aspected by three, most notably Saturn which is also its rashi<\/em>\ndispositor. Saturn forms two Raja<\/em> yogas with Mercury in the 9th, which thus\nimplies luck in life, and certainly reflects the monetary benefits of music\npublishing which earned him and Lennon millions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Kala Sarpa<\/em> is reputed to magnify whatever is exaggerated in the\nhoroscope. In McCartney\u00e2\u0080\u0099s case, three planets qualify for amplification \u00e2\u0080\u0093 the\nMoon because it\u00e2\u0080\u0099s dark, Mars because it\u00e2\u0080\u0099s debilitated, and Mercury because it\u00e2\u0080\u0099s\nretrograde. As noted already, Mercury forms two Raja<\/em> yogas with Saturn.\nAnd as a strong well-placed lagnesh<\/em>, Mercury grants the power to elevate\nthe stature of the individual. For bonus points, note that Mercury is also\nMcCartney\u00e2\u0080\u0099s 10th lord of career, so its elevation and participation in powerful\nyogas helps to confirm the assessment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Moon\/Mars pair is\na more complicated matter. On the face of it, they form Chandra-Mangala<\/em>\nyoga, the most basic of wealth yogas, so labeled because the pairing implies\nactivity, energy and passion, all of which can translate into productivity. In\nthe 11th house, it implies group enterprise. Although Mars is debilitated, it\nenjoys some mitigation via Neecha Bhanga<\/em> for three reasons: <\/p>\n\n\n\n
