Viral Snake Video Incident
A video has gone viral of US Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. picking up a pair of writhing snakes with his bare hands. Wildlife officials caution: don't try this at home. Kennedy wrote in a caption for the clip that he was removing the reptiles from his colleague Dr. Mehmet Oz's Florida beach house. A woman can be heard saying, "Bobby, please." His host, Dr. Oz, leads the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services, which is part of the health department led by Kennedy. Kennedy holds up the snakes for the camera, smiling even as they appear to bite him. The Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission recently warned people to stay away from snakes as they become more active in spring.

Astrological Verification of Birth Details
As an astrologer, this incident provides an opportunity to verify his birth details available on Astrodatabank (C rating). I cast his horoscope and analysed the reasons with an open mind as per Indian astrology. Key Chart Details
The Cancer Lagna chart has Moon, the Lagna Lord, in the 12th House.
Saturn is exalted in the 4th House along with Mars (5th and 10th Lord).
Saturn [7th Lord] is under sign exchange with Venus, the 4th Lord.
He is currently running the Vimshottari Dasha of Venus-Saturn-Saturn.

Vimshottari Dasha of Robert F. Kennedy Jr Relevant Yoga and Activation
As per Indian Astrology, if Saturn is in the 7th House with Sun and Rahu, the person is bitten by a snake while sleeping (Jyotish Ratnakar, Page 742, Jantu Bhay Yoga Number 5 – Yoga for Fear from Animals / Creatures). At first, I could not locate this Yoga in Kennedy’s chart. However, after deep and repeated focus on the horoscope, I identified the sign exchange of Saturn and Venus — Saturn in the sign of Libra (Venus) and Venus in the sign of Capricorn (Saturn). If Saturn is mathematically placed in Capricorn due to the sign exchange, it fully combines with Rahu and Sun, activating the above Yoga—Jupiter, the 6th Lord (Obstacles & Poison), aspects this Saturn-Sun-Rahu combination. The ongoing Venus-Saturn-Saturn Dasha has fully triggered this combination.
Reference of Jantu Bhaya Yoga, Jyotish Ratnakar point No 5 Confirmation in D-9 Chart
In the D-9 chart, Saturn is again with the Sun in the 6th House (Challenges, Obstacles), and Venus is with Rahu (Snake). Jupiter is again aspecting from the 12th House. Due to the sign exchange, the Dasha can also be read as Saturn-Venus-Venus, and Venus is with Rahu (Snake). I am sharing the reference from Jyotish Ratnakar (Jantu Bhay section, Yoga Number 5) for ready verification.
Conclusion
This clearly proves that the Time of Birth (T.O.B.) given on Astrodatabank is correct. The precise activation of the classical Jantu Bhay Yoga (Fear from Animals / Creatures) through sign exchange and the ongoing Dasha perfectly explains the incident. This event stands as strong evidence that Vedic astrology is indeed a super science.
