Picture of Superstar Vijay

Actor-turned politician C. Joseph Vijay, also fondly referred to as Thalapathi Vijay, is currently one of the biggest stars in the Tamil film industry. Vijay launched his party Tamilaga Vettri Kazhagam in 2024. He is fighting his first electoral battle in the upcoming assembly election, scheduled for April 23. Vijay is only the most recent of several actors across Tamil Nadu’s history to turn to politics. Since elections are just around the corner, let us analyse the chart of his party, Tamilaga Vettri Kazhagam (TVK), and then the chart of the superstar of Tamil Nadu.

As per Mundane astrology and the teachings of my guru, the chart of the party and its leader plays a significant role in an election. I wish to sincerely see the chances of this new party in the coming elections. The Taurus Lagna Chart Lagna Lord is in the 8th House along with Mars, the 12th Lord. Mars is under sign exchange with Jupiter, the 8th Lord. It is strange that all the three—6th Lord, 8th Lord, and 12th Lord—are making the connection in the 8th House, making the perfect Vipreet Raj Yoga, famous for giving success in difficult circumstances. The other Rajyogas in this chart are Mercury (5th Lord) + Sun (4th Lord), Gajkeshari Yoga at exact degrees with Moon at 11 degrees 25 minutes and Jupiter at 13 degrees 13 minutes, making the party illustrious, overpowering, virtuous, wealthy, intelligent, scholarly, of royal bearing, and enjoying lasting fame.

Sun (4th Lord) + Mercury (5th Lord) means, as per Mundane astrology, the 4th House denotes agriculture, colleges, and schools, and the 5th House denotes children and educational institutes. This is happening in the 9th House of high morality without any malefic effect. The party will certainly raise its voice against corruption with the support of students, farmers, rural workers, and the labour class, as Saturn (Farmer, Labour) is aspecting the 4th House from the 10th House. Moon in Kemdrum Yoga as the 3rd Lord (Communication) and self-effort makes the party a bit indecisive and lethargic.

Currently, the party is under the Vimshottari Dasha of Rahu-Mercury-Venus. As explained earlier, Mercury is under the very potent Rajyoga in the 9th House, and Mercury, which signifies the communication aspect of the 3rd House, is ideal during the election. The Pratyantar Dasha Lord Venus is in the 8th House as the 6th Lord and Lagna Lord under perfect V.R.Y. In the Navamsa chart, Mercury is the 3rd and 8th Lord, Vargottama (same sign as in the Rashi chart), so very strong in the 10th House of dignity with the 10th Lord Saturn. Venus is debilitated in the 6th House is a Rajyoga as per B.P.H.S Moon, as the 4th Lord, is in the 10th House under the aspect of the 9th Lord Jupiter. Saturn is the 10th Lord both in the Rashi chart and Navamsa chart, and is also in the 10th House in its own sign, aspecting the 4th House, showing the popularity of the party. Gajkeshari Yoga is repeating in the Navamsa chart, and Jupiter is exalted.

At the time of the election starting on 23rd April 2026, the Antar Dasha Lord Mercury is transiting in Pisces with B.A.V. points 7/8 and 33 S.A.V. bindus, which is excellent for the party. The party will show very good performance in the state elections. Since the party is fighting for the first time, it is difficult to predict the number of seats. The vote percentage of the party in the coming election will surprise the political pundits, as Mercury is in the 6th House (Fighting a combat) of D-10 with Mars (Lagna Lord) under the aspect of the 5th Lord Sun.

For the correct assessment of the performance of the party in the coming election, the chart of the leader of the party plays an important role. The birth details of Vijay are 22 June 1974, 9:25 a.m., Chennai. The chart is taken from reliable sources, but unverified. He has Cancer Lagna with Mars + Moon, the most potent Rajyoga for Cancer Lagna. Moreover, as per Bhavartha Ratnakar (Chapter 13, Shloka 10), if Mars and Moon occupy the Lagna or 8th House, the person is certainly very fortunate. This appealed to me to accept this horoscope.

Why is he a film star is the question in my mind. After the careful examination of the chart, I can see the Rahu (Maya) and Mercury (3rd Lord, Talent) Nakshatra exchange. Mercury, apart from intelligence, is also the actor (Nata) as per Indian astrology, and he made his debut as a lead actor in the Tamil film Naalaiya Theerpu, released on December 4, 1992. Directed by his father S. A. Chandrasekhar, he played the lead role at age 18. He was under the Vimshottari Dasha of Mercury-Mercury-Venus, which behaved like Rahu-Rahu-Venus. Rahu is in Rajyoga because it is in the Trikona (5th House) under the aspect of the 4th Lord Venus. Venus in 11th house with Ketu made the Venus 10 times stronger as Venus[Ability to perform] in its own sign acted as the pole and Ketu as the flag. Since Rahu is in the sign of Mars, the 10th Lord, the 3rd Lord Mercury, and the 10th Lord have an indirect connection (Acting connected to occupation). In D-9, Rahu is again under the aspect of the 10th Lord Mars, and Mars is also the 3rd Lord. So talent (Acting) is connected to an occupation. Currently, he is under Venus-Rahu-Mars. As written earlier, due to the Rahu-Mercury Nakshatra exchange, the Dasha will behave like Venus-Mercury-Mars. Mercury in the 12th House with the 8th Lord Saturn under the aspect of Jupiter, the 6th Lord, forms the perfect Vipreet Raj Yoga in the Rashi chart, showing that the party will do well in difficult circumstances. Mercury is retrograde and debilitated in D-9 in the 2nd House, which shows a bit of erratic communication. In D-10, the sign exchange of Mercury and Jupiter shows the maturity of the actor. Mars, the Pratyantar Dasha Lord, is in a very potent Rajyoga and is luck-giving as per Bhavartha Ratnakar in the Rashi chart. It is in the 10th House of honour in D-9 under the mutual aspect of Saturn, the Lagna Lord, forming a Rajyoga (Lagna Lord + 10th Lord). In D-10, it is very well placed in the 9th House under sign exchange with the 9th Lord, showing luck and emotional appeal.

Conclusion.

By looking at all these factors from both the party chart and the leader’s chart, it looks his party should do very well in vote percentage as a newcomer in politics. Let us see how things will shape up. But the stars are certainly showing the successful entry of this party in Tamil Nadu.
